Ḥasan Ḥasan-zādih Ãmulī (Persian: حسن حسنزاده آملی: 10 February, 1927[1] – 25 September, 2021) was an Iranian Shi'ite theologian known for his mystical tendencies[2] and Islamic philosophy.[3] He was among clerics who overcame the traditional opposition to teaching philosophy courses at Shi'ite seminaries.[4] He wrote many books in philosophy, mysticism, mathematics, astronomy, Persian and Arabic literature. He interpreted the Islamic philosophical tradition in a similar way to Mulla Sadra, which is a reconciliation of religion, reason and mysticism. His books include Sharh fusus al-hikam, Tashih nahj al-balagha, Insan dar 'urf-i 'irfan, Tashih kalila wa dimna.
He died on Saturday, 25 September 2021, at the age of 94.[5] Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei offered prayers on his body.[6] Hassanzadeh Amoli was elected as one of the "Immortal figures of Iran" in 2003.[7]
Hassanzadeh-Amoli was father-in-law of Iranian conservative politician Baqer Larijani.[8]
