Hassan Modarres

Seyyed Hassan Modarres (Persian: سید حسن مدرس c. 1870 – Sarabeh, 1 December 1937, Kashmar) was an Iranian Twelver Shi’a cleric and a notable supporter of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution. He was among the founding members, along with Abdolhossein Teymourtash, of the reformist party Hezb-e Eslaah-talab, which was formed during the fourth national Majlis of Iran. He has been called “brave and incorruptible” and “perhaps the most fervent mullah supporter of true constitutional government.”
