Ostad Elahi
Ostad Nur Ali Elahi {استاد الهی} (1895-1974), was an Iranian philosopher, jurist, and musician
Elahi was born on the 11th September 1895 in Jeyhounabad, a small village in western Iran. His father, Hajj Nematollah (1871-1919), was a charismatic mystic and prolific poet who was widely revered as a saint. Ostad Elahi was a musical child prodigy, becoming a recognised master of the tanbur by the age of nine.
A thinker, jurist, author, and musician, Ostad Elahi remained largely unknown to the general public during his lifetime, notwithstanding the publication of several philosophical treatises in his later years. Following the introduction of his life and works on the occasion of his centenary in 1995, however, he has become much better known.
Ostad Elahi died on the 19th October 1974 at the age of seventy-nine.
