A Search into the Life and the Works of the Late Mahmud Ramyar

There have been, here and there, talks about and writings concerning the life and works of the well known Qurʹan scholar and religion researcher, the late Mahmud Ramyar, Professor of Mashhad University. These writings, however, are mainly incomplete, not well founded, and at times incorrect or overrated. Hence, the present writer has attempted to portray the personality, state of mind, and half a century of dynamic endeavors of this erudite professor through a survey of his books and articles, careful study of his dossier preserved in the archives of Mashhad University and the Faculty of Theology, and also by relying on his own information as well as views of some of his colleagues contemporary to the late professor. It is hoped that this article will be fruitful to both the contemporaries and the posterity.
