Yusefabad-e Seyrafi (Persian: يوسف ابادصيرفي)[a] is a village in Ferdows Rural District[4] of Juqin District in Shahriar County, Tehran province, Iran.
Yousef Abad Seyrafi takes its name from the Seyrafi family of magnates who owned Yousef Abad and nearby Shahriar. They are credited with giving away lands to the Ministry of Post and Telegraph to bring communications infrastructure to the town. Yousef Abad Seyrafi was the site of a fortress that has been destroyed.[citation needed]
