The Supreme Religious Authority, Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Sadiq al-Husseini al-Shirazi, mourned the death of the religious authority, Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Lotfallah al-Safi al-Golpaygani, may Allah bless his soul.
A statement by His Eminence received by Shia Waves read:

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate
“Indeed, we belong to Allah and to Him we shall return.”
I extend my condolences to Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his honorable reappearance, on the departure of the deceased jurist, Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Lotfallah al-Safi al-Golpaygani, may Allah bless his soul. He was the descendant of scholars in the past two centuries, including his great father, Ayatollah Sheikh Muhammad Jawad al-Safi al-Golpaygani, and his elder brother, Ayatollah Sheikh Ali al-Safi al-Golpaygani.
I also extend my condolences to the seminaries, especially the seminary in the holy and honorable city of Qom, the honorable home of the late jurist, and all the honorable believers.
“There is neither might nor power except with Allah.”
