Sheikh Abdul Karim Zanjani (1888 – 1968) was an ulama.

Zanjani was born in modern-day Iran, in the city of Zanjan. He went to Tehran to study, and became concerned with politics relating to Islamic nations. At the age of twenty-two he moved to Najaf and became a pupil of renowned religious scholars, such as Seyyed Mohammad Kazem Yazdi and Seyyed Mohammad Firouz Abadi. He demonstrated insight and skills in the sphere of Islamic philosophy. He is recognized primarily for two accomplishments: one concerned with the reconciliation and nearness of sects and Islamic cults,^[1] and another with the development of Islamic philosophy.

His works encompassed subjects such as Avicenna, Al-Kindi, the development of philosophy, and various discussions of jurisprudence(Fiqh).

Karim received his early education at Immaculate Seminary Qazvin. He moved to Najaf for his higher education.

His professors in Najaf were:

• Mohammed Kazem Yazdi
• Fethullah Qa'ravi Isfahani
• Akhund Khorasani
• Muhammad Hujjat Kuh-Kamari
• Mirza Mohammad Taqi Shirazi

Karim returned to Zanjan in 1908 to promote religion, the affairs of the Muslim people, and to train seminary students. Mirza Baqir Zanjani taught alongside prominent teachers such as Sayed Ahmad Zanjani, a leading scholar in Qom during the Boroujerdi time.

He died at the age of 84.
