The United States extends its sincere condolences to the Islamic community and the followers of the doctrine of Ahl al-Bayt and the great Marja’iyah on the death of the religious Marja’ Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Muhammad Saeed al-Hakim. He was a symbol of peace, unity, and compassion across the region and the world. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones on this day.
