Migration to Tehran
After spending 12 years studying in Qom Seminary, it was in 1961 after the death of Hossein Borujerdi in which he migrated to Tehran.[2] At the time, there was a lack of Islamic Scholars in big cities. This prompted Ayatollah Hossein Borujerdi to influence scholars migrating to big cities in Iran and establishing Islamic Seminaries there.[3] Thus, similar to Ayatollah Haghsenas, he migrated to Tehran under the influence of Borujerdi. He spent the rest of his life teaching and studying alongside Ahmad Mojtahedi Tehrani, in the Ayatollah Mojtahed Theological School.[4]
Death
It was first speculated that Ziaabadi died of Coronavirus during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran, however, it was actually due to coronary heart disease and his old age that led to his death.[5] His death prompted many popular figures in Iran to send their condolences such as Hassan Rouhani and Ali Khamenei due to his popularity. [6] Many attended his funeral, and he is buried in Shah Abdol-Azim Shrine.
