About His Eminence Ayatullah Al-Udhma as-Sayyid as-Seestani (Dama Dhiluh), during the current situation

Acting on the advice of medical doctors, Grand Ayatullah Seestani (long may he live) has suddenly cancelled all his daily engagements in Najaf. The medical team following His Eminence’s health said that due to his heart condition he needs to rest. They fear that he may not receive the appropriate medical treatment under the present circumstances. We therefore request all Momineen to pray for H. E’s speedy recovery.
