Sheik
Fadl Allah Noori. Sheik Shaheed was
born in the hamlet, Noor, of Mazandaran
in 1258 H. He had his early education
with his father and in his youth he went
to Najaf e Ashraf for further studies.
He had a keen eye for scholastic details
and was an adept at explaining intricate
matters to his disciples. He always
confronted the forces of colonialism. He
also exhorted his disciples to oppose
imperialism. Because of his philosophy
of opposition to colonialism he returned
to Iran and because of his awareness of
the political scene he assumed the
leadership of the movement. He exposed
the conspiracy of the colonialists.
Because of the traitrous behavior of
some members of the movement he was
arrested. He was produced in the
military court of Bairam Khan Armani and
was sent to the gallows in great hurry!
On the day of the birth of Hazrat Ali (a.s),
Rajab 13 he was hanged to death. The
mausoleum of Shaheed Fadl Allah Noori in
the complex of Masooma e Qum is visited
by the admirers of the Shaheed even to
this day.
