Dr. Muhammad al-Hakimi (1951-2017) was a prominent figure in Iraq, who left the country upon the pressures of the Baʿthist regime. After a sojourn in neighboring countries, he finally moved to England where he lived for the rest of his life. When he settled in the UK, he did his best to promote the school of the pure Household of the Prophet (a). As a result of his respect and love for Ahl al-Bayt (a), al-Hakimi rejected all the positions offered to him after the collapse of the Baʿthist regime in Iraq, since he favored the promotion of the teachings of Ahl al-Bayt (a) and the pure Islam of Prophet Muhammad (s).
The late al-Hakimi was an active member of the General Assembly of Ahl al-Bayt World Assembly, and in this way he served the school of Ahl al-Bayt (a). He contributed to the established of the Society of the School of Ahl al-Bayt (a) (Jamʿiyya Maktaba Ahl al-Bayt). He published a number of works.
