The Feyziyya School is a historic religious seminary located in Qom, Iran, adjacent to the shrine of Fatima Masumeh. Established as a center for Islamic scholarship and Shia theology, it has played a significant role in educating Islamic clerics and scholars for centuries. The school became particularly influential during the 20th century, serving as a key hub for political and religious movements, including the early activities of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini before the Iranian Revolution of 1979. Its traditional architecture, featuring courtyards and domed halls, reflects the rich heritage of Persian religious institutions. Today, Feyziyya School remains an important institution for Islamic education and clerical training, attracting students from across the Shia world.
