The CEO of Khuzestan International Exhibition Company has issued a message of condolence on the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (peace be upon him):

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (peace be upon him) stands as both an exemplar of knowledge and learning, and a symbol of patience and forbearance. Known as “Baqir al-Uloom” (“the splitter of knowledge”), he was the leader who, in an age overshadowed by ignorance and hardship, made the springs of Divine wisdom flow from his radiant heart into the world of knowledge, bestowing nobility and patience upon eager souls. With his asceticism, piety, and heavenly forbearance, Imam al-Baqir not only safeguarded the legacy of Ali and Fatimah (peace be upon them), but also laid the foundation for a grand movement of learning, dialogue, and insight within the Islamic community. By nurturing many students, he expanded the scope of Divine teachings across the breadth of time and space.

As we mark the anniversary of this noble martyr and hearts of the lovers of the Ahl al-Bayt are steeped in sorrow and mourning, I extend my deepest condolences to His Holiness, the Promised Mahdi (may Allah hasten his reappearance), to all Shi’a Muslims, and especially to my esteemed colleagues in the country’s exhibition industry. I pray to Almighty God for us all to attain the intercession of this exalted Imam.
