Early life and education

Born in Tabriz in 1869, Ḥakimi was part of "an old and prominent family of court physicians", who traced their status as far back as the 17th century, "starting with the eponym of the family, Moḥammad-Dāvud Khan Ḥakim" who served at the courts of the Safavid shahs Safi (1629-1642) and Abbas II (1642-1666). This ancestor of Ebrahim was also the founder of the Hakim Mosque in Isfahan. Hakimi's uncle was Mirza Mahmud Khan Hakim ol-Molk, a politician and personal physician of Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar ().

After finishing elementary and high school in Tabriz, Hakimi attended Dar ol-Fonoon in Tehran and finished advanced studies in medicine in Paris.

Career

Hakimi served as royal physician to Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar. He then became a member of the Parliament, and served as cabinet minister 17 times, as prime minister for three terms, and as speaker of the Senate of Iran.

His second tenure as prime minister was short-lived (three months) as the Soviets, angry over his refusal to grant them an oil concession in Northern Iran, inspired Azerbaijani Communists to declare independence from Iran. Soviet troops occupying the Northern regions refused to allow Iranian troops to enter the region to put down the uprising. Hakimi submitted the issue to the UN Security Council and resigned from office in protest of Soviet actions in January 1946.

Death

Hakimi died in Tehran in 1959.
