Supreme Religious Authority, Seid. Ali al-Sistani, Expresses Condolences on Losing Grand Ayatollah Sheikh. Muhammad Ishaq al-Fayadh




The Supreme Religious Authority, His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Seid. Ali al-Husseini al-Sistani (may Allah prolong his life ), extended his condolences on the loss of the religious authority, Ayatollah Sheikh.Muhammad Ishaq al-Faydh (may Allah bless him ).
The text of the statement comes to the fore as follows:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
"Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return."
With poignant sorrow and regret, I received the news of losing my dear brother, the religious authority Ayatollah Sheikh.Muhammad Ishaq al-Faydh (may Allah bless him).
The great deceased was one of the prominent leading scholars (aʿlām) of the Islamic Seminary (al-Hawza al-ʿIlmiyya) in Holy Najaf over recent decades. He was distinguished with his sincere efforts in serving knowledge and its scholars through authorship, teaching, and other scholarly endeavors. Hence, the loss is immense, and the void he leaves behind is vast, one that can hardly be filled except through the grace and providence of Allah Almighty.
As I offer my condolences on this monumental loss to the greatest wali of Allah (our lives are to sacrifice him), the Islamic seminaries, the family of the blessed deceased, and the general community of believers, I pray to Allah, the Sublime and the Almighty, to elevate his ramk in Paradise, to gather him with his guardians, Muhammad and his pure and immaculate progeny, and to grant his family and loved ones patience and solace.
There is no power nor might except by Allah, the Sublime, the Almighty.
Ali al-Husseini al-Sistani
