'Allama Amini passed away at Friday noon on Rabi' II 28, 1390/July 3, 1970. Some have regarded the cause of his death at the age of 70 – despite having a robust and healthy body – due to severe study and his total dedication to writing and taking care of the library task. In his will, Amini has requested that one be chosen as his representative to go to Karbala for ten years. He has also willed that for ten years mourning ceremonies be held on the demise anniversary of Lady Fatima al-Zahra (a). | 'Allama Amini passed away at Friday noon on Rabi' II 28, 1390/July 3, 1970.
