HOLY CITY OF QOM, Iran: Ayatullah Al-Mirza Jawwad At-Tabrezi is ill which made him to travel to London for treatment, sources said on Tuesday.

Ayatullah At-Tabrezi’s followers and devotees have appealed for prayers for his good health. He teaches Fiqh (jurisprudence) and Usool (principles) in Hawzah Ilmiya (the Islamic seminary) of the holy city of Qom.

During his studies in the holy city of Najaf, Iraq, Ayatullah At-Tabrizi was fortunate enough to benefit from eminent Maraje Uzzam such as the late Ayatullah Sayyid Abul Hadi Shirazi and the late Ayatullah Al-Khoei until he got the degree of Ijtihad. He was invited by Al-Khoei to join the Assembly of Consultants, which is an organized group of scholars that responds to the people's questions.

He resided in the holy city of Najaf for about 23 years, leaving only in the holidays to do propagation in different countries. He later returned to Iran.
