Comment: There is a lot of manufactured hype about the subject, but little of substance.  For example, being called the "Father of modern physics in Iran."  This is a  claim.  If indeed he were such an important physicist, there would be ample evidence on Google scholar of his significance as a research scientist.  But Google scholar shows only a handful of publications, each having garnered fewer than 10 citations.  The current references for the "father of modern physics" claims do not seem to be reliable sources.  Anyone can create a conference entitled "60 Years of Physics"; anyone at a conference can call anyone else a "father of modern physics".  That does not mean that this makes the individual especially notable.  A reliable source would indicate what official body made this pronouncement, and what it is based on.  If Hessaby indeed founded the University of Tehran, then that would probably make him notable, but there do not seem reliable historical sources that clarify his role (if any) in the foundation of the university.  Furthermore, a https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=mahmoud+hessaby+site%3Aut.ar.ir&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#channel=fs&q=hessaby+site:ut.ar.ir site search of the University of Tehran reveals no mention of the subject.  If he founded the university, there should be some clear, official evidence for it.  The claim that he was Minister of Education from 1951-2 does appear to be supported by reliable sources.  So if the article is kept, it should be drastically reduced in length, possibly a stub containing only this and other |verifiable claims
