Tehran & Rey Ziyarat Guide & Packages

The Gateway Metropolis & Sacred Shrines of Hazrat Abdol-Azim & Saleh

Tehran is Iran’s vibrant capital and international gateway for flights arriving from Pakistan. Beyond being a modern metropolis, its ancient southern district of Rey houses the revered shrine of Hazrat Abdol-Azim al-Hasani (A.S.), while northern Tajrish enshrines Imamzadeh Saleh (A.S.).

Spiritual Virtue & Significance

“The Rey sanctuary also includes the shrines of Hazrat Hamzah (brother of Imam al-Raza) and Hazrat Tahir (descendant of Imam al-Sajjad), offering triple ziyarat virtues in one historic pilgrimage site.”

Historical Background

Hazrat Abdol-Azim al-Hasani was a fifth-generation descendant of Imam Hasan al-Mujtaba (A.S.) and a trusted companion of Imam Muhammad al-Taqi (A.S.) and Imam Ali al-Hadi (A.S.). Imam al-Hadi (A.S.) famously told a pilgrim from Rey: "If you had visited Abdol-Azim in your city, you would be like one who visited Husayn ibn Ali (A.S.) in Karbala."
