|---|---|
زینب سلیمانی | |

| Born | 1991 (age 32–33) |
| Alma mater | Shahid Beheshti University |
| Father | Qasem Soleimani |
Zeinab Soleimani (born 1991) is one of the children of Qasem Soleimani, the former commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. She manages the Qasem Soleimani Foundation International. She graduated and studied political science at Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran, Iran. Zeinab was the liaison between Soleimani and the families of Iranian military forces who were killed in the Iran-Iraq War or in wars in Iraq, Syria, and other countries in the region. She also traveled with her father to Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon on several occasions.[1][2]
Personal life
Zeinab was born in 1991 in Tehran and is the youngest child of Qasem Soleimani.[3] Shortly after her father's death, in July 2020, she married Reza Safi al-Din, the son of Hashim Safi al-Din, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah
of Lebanon's Hezbollah.[4][1] The news of their marriage was first published on Instagram by Imad Mughniyeh's sister. Unlike his father and wife, Reza Hashem Safi al-Din avoids interviews with the media and news cameras.[5]
In 2019, after actress Saba Kamali called the "Blue Girl" more oppressed than Hussein ibn Ali and his companions, Zeinab Soleimani reacted strongly on Instagram. Subsequently, Soleimani's Instagram account was blocked.[6] In 2021, images of her holding an iPhone 13 Pro Max, one of the most expensive phones made by the American company Apple, made headlines.[7]
Political life
Zeinab Soleimani is part of the Islamic Republic of Iran's media narrative about her father. Coincidentally, her name also aligns with this content; Zeinab, the sister of Hussein ibn Ali, is known as the "messenger of Ashura" in Shia literature. Even before Qasem Soleimani's death, Zeinab was the only child of his who appeared in public. For instance, in 2016, a video of her appearance alongside Fatima Mughniyeh, daughter of Imad Mughniyeh, in a program was released.[1]
Zeinab is one of the few women who has been able to speak before the Friday prayer sermons and deliver a speech at the Tehran Friday prayer platform. She was the speaker at her father's funeral ceremony at the University of Tehran, and two weeks after her father's death, she delivered a speech before the Friday prayer sermons in Kerman while holding a weapon.[1]
Qasem Soleimani Foundation
Zeinab is the director of the "Qasem Soleimani Foundation," known as the "Haj Qasem School," which was formed after her father's assassination to preserve and publish the works of Qasem Soleimani.[8] The allocation of an 8.5 billion toman budget for this foundation in Iran's 2021 budget was criticized. Shortly after this news was published, Zeinab Soleimani wrote in a letter that she had not requested a budget.[9]
On December 6, 2020, the public relations department of the Budget and Planning Organization announced that the budget line for this foundation in 2020 was added to the text of the law by the parliament during the review of the 2020 budget in the IRGC budget section. This budget was 10 billion tomans in 2020.[10]
