Death
Mir Emad was later alleged of being Sunni, a branch of Islam which was not tolerated under Safavids, and implicitly sentenced to death by Shah Abbas. In a night, on his way to Hamam, Mir Emad was assassinated by Masud Beik Mesgar Qazvini, and for several days no one dared to bury his corpse. Finally his pupil, Abu Torab Khattat Esfahani, buried him in Maqsud Beik mosque. He was not allowed to build a mausoleum for Mir Emad.
