Zīnah al-Sādāt Humāyūnī

Zīnah al-Sādāt Humāyūnī (Persian: زینت‌السادات علویه همایونی‎), also Alavīyah Humāyūnī, Zinatossadat Alevi Homayooni or Homayuni, (born 1917) is a female religious scholar from Isfahan, Iran, who was the most prominent student of Iran's leading mujtaheda of the 20th century, Banu Amin.[1] She is a Shia author, Faqīh and Ijtihad contemporary. She is a student of Lady Amin Esfahani. She was the first female theology student in her university entrance exam and was accepted in 1964. In 1965, her Seminary founded, with many Iranian women, the first Lady Amin in the Name of Fatima School.

When Banu Amin opened one of the country's first religious seminary for women in Iran in the 1960s, the Maktab-e Fatimah of Isfahan, Zīnah al-Sādāt Humāyūnī became its director and remained in that position until 1992. Apparently, the establishment of the maktab was first and foremost Humāyūnī's idea. She made key administrative decisions and devised the study program.[2]

When Humāyūnī retired, Ḥajj Āqā Ḥasan Imāmi, a relative of Humāyūnī's, took over the directorship of the school.[1]

Humāyūnī has translated two books from Arabic into Persian and is also the author of two books.
