He added that the upcoming international conference, scheduled for next week, will bring together representatives from seminary institutions, academic centers, and international organizations to explore avenues for cooperation and synergy in disseminating the teachings of al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya.
The head of the foundation noted that over the past year, three new memoranda of understanding have been signed with Iran’s Natural Resources Organization, the Seminary Services Center, and Dar al-Erfan Institute headed by Hojatoleslam Hossein Ansarian. He said these agreements, alongside 14 previously concluded MOUs, are expected to play a significant role in expanding the reach of the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) and al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya.

He further announced the production of two commemorative inscribed flags bearing the name of Imam Sajjad (peace be upon him), which will be distributed among devotees and cultural centers.
Concluding his remarks, Vafi emphasized the establishment of a Scientific Association of Al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya, describing it as a practical step toward a more systematic introduction, scholarly interpretation, and contemporary application of this “luminous and enduring” Islamic text.
