Biography of Muḥammad ‘Alī Sonqorī ῌāirī and the correction and review of a document in relation to him

Muḥammad ‘Alī Sonqorī ῌāirī (1293 – 1378 AH) the Shī‘a interpreter, Hadith transmitter, theologian, and jurist, the son of Shaikh Muḥammad ῌasan, was born in Karbalā. He became known as Sonqorī due to his migration to the city of Sonqor and years of preaching and guiding the people of that city. During the Constitution movement, Sonqorī went to Sonqor with the recommendation of his teacher, Ākhūnd Khurāsānī and there he promoted the rulings of Islam and solved people’s religious problems. After some years of preaching and promoting Islam, he returned to his birthplace, the Exalted Karbalā, and was taught by Āyatullāh Shaikh Muḥammad Taqī Shīrāzī. However, in 1345 ah, in a letter which was signed by 21 prominent figures of Sonqor like Āyatullāh ῌabībullāh Pīshwāī, the people of Sonqor asked Āyatullāh Muḥammad ῌussein Nāīnī to return him back to Sonqor. So Sonqorī returned to Sonqor because of the repeated requests of people. First, the author of the article at hand briefly introduces the character and probes the life of Muḥammad ‘Alī Sonqorī and in doing so, he points out his works and dissertations, his character through the words of the prominent figures and scientists, and his teachers and licenses.
