SAEDNEWS: A newly resurfaced collection of vintage photographs offers a poignant look at the funeral and memorial service of Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, graced by the presence of Iran’s Supreme Leader alongside leading political personalities.
According to Saed News, readers are invited to view a set of archival images documenting the funeral and memorial ceremonies for Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, held at the Imam Khomeini Hosseiniyeh. These rare photographs vividly depict the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei standing in solemn tribute, flanked by a roster of Iran’s most prominent political figures—ranging from former presidents Hassan Rouhani and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to the late Major General Qasem Soleimani.
The visual record, originally published by the political desk of Saed News, emphasizes the breadth of the nation’s leadership paying their respects: the muted lines of mourners, the dignity of the procession, and the unwavering presence of those who shaped Iran’s modern history. Through these frames, viewers can trace both the gravity of the occasion and the unity of Iran’s political elite in commemorating one of the Revolution’s central architects.
