The Friday prayer leader of Kashan said, “The late Javad Emami was a mourner for the AhlulBayt (a.s.). Every year on the ninth of Muharram, he sacrificed for Hazrat Abolfazl (a.s.) and presented the meat to the Hey’at of Imam Hussain (a.s.).”

The first anniversary of the demise of the late Javad Emami, former deputy director of the ABNA News Agency and his honorable mother, Mrs. Mortazavi, was held on Thursday evening, May 19, 2022, in Qom.

The speaker of the ceremony was Hojat al-Islam Sayed Saeed Hosseini, the representative of the Supreme Leader and Friday prayer leader of Kashan.

At the ceremony, referring to the three purposes of holding commemoration and condolence meetings for the deceased, he said, “The purpose of holding these meetings is to recite the Quran and present its spiritual reward to the deceased, to offer condolences to the mourning family, and to express the virtues of the deceased in order to set a role model.”

“No matter how long we live - short or long-, we have eternity ahead. For the eternity, our soul needs evolution, and it is possible in two ways: gaining knowledge beneficial to the soul and doing righteous deeds,” continued the professor of the higher levels of the seminary.

“The late Grand Ayatollah Mohammad-Taqi Bahjat spent on reflecting two hours every night on the Quran and jurisprudential teachings. He comparatively read Resalah Amaliyah with the book Lom’ah Dameshqiah for one hour every night, reviewing the Holy Quran with Tafsir of Shubbar,” he said, referring to examples of Ulama and dignitaries’ consideration for Quran and Etrat for spiritual development.

“Mr. Emami’s mother, the late Mortazavi, required herself to attend the mosque. For fifty years, this mother used to say the prayers of Imam Mahdi (a.s.) every day. We must also dedicate a time every day to pay attention to Imam Mahdi (a.s.). The father of the late Emami, Ayatollah Emami Koopai was one of the Ulama of the seminary, and his father-in-law, Ayatollah Araqchi Hamedani was a professor of ethics,” added the Friday prayer leader of Kashan.

“The late Javad Emami was a mourner for the AhlulBayt (a.s.). Every year on the ninth of Muharram, he sacrificed for Hazrat Abolfazl (a.s.) and presented the meat to the Hey’at of Imam Hussain (a.s.),” he pointed out, referring to the examples of the love and affection of the late Emami for the infallible AhlulBayt (a.s.).

In the end, Hojat al-Islam Hosseini expressed his hope that the only son of the late Emami will continue his father’s path by entering and studying in the seminary.

It should be mentioned that Mr. Javad Emami Koopai, one of the ethical and committed directors of Maaref Radio, and ABNA News Agency, died on Thursday, May 20, 2021, due to a car accident on the Qom-Isfahan road. His mother (Wife of the late Hojat al-Islam Haj Sheikh Shobbar Emami Koopai) and his child were also in the car during the trip, and the accident was so severe that, unfortunately, her mother, Ms. Mortazavi, also died. Fortunately, his child survived.

The late Emami, born in 1964, like other passionate revolutionaries, became involved in social activities from the beginning of his adolescence, and then, for many years served in various positions related to the Islamic Maaref and the holy system of the Islamic Republic.

He studied up to the level of Kharij of Fiqh and Osul (high levels of Islamic Seminary) in the seminary of Qom, as well as a master’s degree in the university. He was one of the scientific, propagation and media activists of the Islamic seminary.
