“International Congress Highlights Mirza Naeini’s Enduring Influence on Shiite Thought”

Ayatollah Sheikh Jafar Naeini, grandson of the late Allama Mirza Naeini, praised his grandfather as a leading role model in knowledge, piety, practice, and struggle during the opening ceremony of the Mirza Naeini International Congress at Imam Kazim (AS) Seminary in Qom.

Hawzah News Agency- Speaking to scholars, thinkers, and prominent seminary professors, Ayatollah Naeini highlighted the late Allama’s comprehensive contributions to jurisprudence, ethics, and social thought, describing him as an exemplary figure whose works continue to inspire the Shiite world. He expressed gratitude to the organizers, including Ayatollah Arafi, director of the seminaries, for their dedication in managing the commemoration.

Ayatollah Naeini emphasized that Mirza Naeini’s life and teachings are too vast to be fully captured in a single event, noting that a book on his life, thoughts, and works has been compiled, with further scholarly articles to be published in the future. He also recalled a saying of the Imam of the Age (AS), who recognized Mirza Naeini as a “balm for Islamic society.”

Stressing the pivotal role of seminaries, Ayatollah Naeini called on Qom and Najaf institutions to continue preserving and propagating the scientific and spiritual legacy of great scholars, extending their influence throughout the Islamic world. He concluded with prayers for the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, and leading scholars, asking God to grant them honor and dignity.
