Following the passing of Ayatollah Sheikh Abdul Karim Haeri, the management of Qom Seminary and the sustenance of clerics affairs fell under the responsibility of the three Marjas (Grand Ayatollahs Seyed Sadr al-Din Sadr, Seyed Mohammad Hojjat Kooh-Kamareyi, and Seyed Mohammad Taqi Khansari), who played a significant role in reviving and expanding preaching. This descriptive-analytical study, conducted through library research, examines the impact of the three sources of emulation on the revival of preaching in the recent decades of Qom Seminary. The research demonstrates that the most significant actions of these three figures, considering the particular socio-political conditions of that era, were the preservation of the seminary and preventing its collapse, as preaching religion as the central duty of scholars and students was possible only with the preservation of the seminary. Subsequently, educating and dispatching eloquent clerics, supporting the production of scientific works commensurate with preaching, attention to preaching-related infrastructures, and general social welfare activities (considered as practical preaching) were among the activities of the three sources of emulation in reviving preaching.
