History

The founder of the hospital endowment was Malektaj Firuz (Najm al-Saltaneh), the daughter of Qajar prince Nosrat-od-Dowleh Firouz Mirza. She made Mohammad Mosaddegh and his descendants the custodians of the hospital with the proviso that the custody would go to her other^[2] son Abolhassan Diba after the passing away of Mohammad Mossadegh.^[1][3]

Najmieh was the first modern private hospital in Tehran with a special fund earmarked for the care of poor patients.^[4]
