The meeting “The necessity of participating in the election” was held on the morning of Wednesday, June 16, 2021, in the prayer hall of the headquarter of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly in Qom, by the speech of the Hojat al-Islam Ahmad Ahmadi Tabar, Deputy Secretary-General and Deputy for the Cultural Affairs of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.

Stating that unfortunately, some people say that they only want to boycott the election, and say that they will not vote because of the disqualification of some candidates, and recommend others not to participate in the election, Ayatollah Ramazani said, “Such words are not the belief of the believer and sympathizer of the Islamic system. It is important that every Iranian, as an effective citizen, exercises his social right and participates in the elections.”

The Deputy Secretary-General and Deputy for Cultural Affairs of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly emphasized, “The region’s reactionaries have invested in preventing the Iranian people from participating in the elections. Therefore, in these conditions, attending the elections based on the orders of the Imam Khomeini and the Supreme Leader is a religious and national obligation.”

Stating that the election is a social right of citizens that should be used, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, “Participating in the election entitled us to be demanding of the elected person.”

Referring to the maximum participation in the election as a factor in increasing the security of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, “Maximum participation in the election shows that the relationship between the authorities and the people is strong and close.”

Emphasizing the necessity for the participation of all sections of society in the elections, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, “I’m surprised that some are hesitant to participate in the election. With all the enemies that Iran has, if we want Iran to be strong and proud, everyone must participate in the elections as an Iranian and a revolutionary.”
