Life Journey
Ayatollah Sayyid Muhammad Saeed Al Hakim was imprisoned for eight years from 1983 to 1991 during the oppressive rule of the Ba’athist regime. Many of the members of al-Hakim family were imprisoned and brutally killed during the reign of dictator Saddam Hussein in Iraq. At the time of his death, he was one of four Ayatollahs of the Hawza, Najaf’s Shia Seminary, along with Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Ali al-Hussaini al-Sistani, our Marja-e-Taqleed (May Allah (SWT) prolong his life and grant him good health and safety, Ameen).
He always spoke on the importance of the love towards the Ahlulbayt (‘A) in one’s life and, despite his advanced age he would participate in the Arba’een procession – a manifestation for his love towards Imam Hussain (‘A) and the progeny of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAWW). His charitable activities included assisting the needy people of Iraq, reconstruction of various religious sites, supporting tabligh activities in different parts of the world. He always firmly stood in support of the oppressed people in places like Palestine and other countries. The death of an eminent Ayatollah of such a high calibre is a big loss to the Shia Community around the globe.
- We pray to Allah (SWT) to raise his status and place him in the closest proximity of Ahlulbayt (‘A) where he continuously receives the mercy and grace of Allah (SWT).
- On this sad occasion, we extend our heartfelt condolences to our Living Imam, Al-Mahdi (ATFS), the Marja-e-Taqleed, Ulema-e-Deen, his family and the Shia Community globally on this huge and irreplaceable loss of an eminent Ayatollah.
