Zīnah al-Sādāt Humāyūnī

Zīnah al-Sādāt Humāyūnī, also Alavīyah Humāyūnī, 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.

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.

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

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