Dr. Sayyed Abdolbaghi Modarres (1905-1987) Son of Martyr Ayatollah Sayyed Hasan Modarres
Abstract
Dr. Sayyed Abdolbaghi Modarres, the son of the martyr Ayatollah Sayyed Hasan Modarres, was born in Isfahan on Thursday, January 12th, 19051. He completed his primary education in this city. Having been elected as a leading mujtahid in the second term of the National Assembly in 1911, his late father emigrated to Tehran (Khajeh Nouri, 1978, pp. 3-7). He took his eldest son Sayyed Ismail with him and sent his other children to the town of Esfeh2 to stay with their mother temporarily. They were supposed to join their father after he found a suitable place in Tehran. However, due to the death of their mother, the children were forced to leave for Tehran earlier. After coming to Tehran, Sayyed Abdolbaghi received his primary education in this city and studied religious sciences in the Sepahsalar college, which was entrusted to Ayatollah Modarres by order of Ahmad Shah on July 18, 1925 (Modarresi, 1987, p. 164). He continued studying there until the age of 13.
