Absolutely disagree with deletion proposal. He is one of the most important Iranian philanthropists who had a significant impact on the modern history of Kerman, he is a founder of one of the largest universities in Iran. He has passed away (so this is not about promoting a living person). There is link to him in other Wikipedia articles (including in article on the University he founded). I do not see any reason why this should be deleted. The article has no copyright problem and I added an english source (there are several sources in Persian (farsi) but few in English and this is yet another reason for adding this article to Wikipedia) HRJM (talk) 11:43, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Founder of a major national university is notable enough to have an article in Wikipedia. Alefbe (talk) 03:59, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
