Now: Sheikh Abdul Amir Qabalan has been officially pronounced dead at the age of 85.

Mufti Qabalan, assumed the duties of the presidency of the Lebanese Supreme Islamic Shiite Council since 2000.
⋯ After the passing of Sayyid Al-Hakim yesterday and Sheikh Qabalan today, the majority of top-tier Shia jurists and scholars are likely to be missed in the coming years, as all are in their 80s and 90s.

No clear successor to the jurists in Najaf (Sistani - 91) and Qom (Khamenei - 82)
