He died at Tehran’s Baqiyatallah Hospital on Wednesday and was buried in his
hometown of Hamedan on Friday.
In May 2015, Sureh-Mehr published "When the Moonlight Was Missing”, his memories
of war that were written by Hamid Hesam.
The book received a commendation from Ayatollah Khamenei, in which he wrote
about Khoshlafz, "The narrator is himself a living martyr whose badly-wounded
body has failed to wane the verve and vigilance of his heart.”
"The writer is also from among those men who are enthusiastic and experienced,”
he added.
"Whatever I wrote about this book is little; the brilliance of this book is more
than what was mentioned; the introduction of the book is itself a poem,” he
stated.
On January 15, 2017, the Leader gave Khoshlafz and his family a warm reception
at his home where he presented the 54-year-old veteran a kaffiyeh and one of his
silver rings.
Following his death, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei also sent a message of
condolence to his family.
"Peace be upon this dear martyr who was called ‘a living martyr’ event when he
was still alive,” the Leader wrote in his message.
Khoshlafz is survived by his wife, Jaleh, and his son and daughter.
