History’s gravest crime being committed in Gaza/ Youth must be aware of world situation: Ayatollah Ramazani
Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly stated, “The global arrogance is trying to inflict blows on the Islamic Revolution of Iran because of fear of its power. Therefore, you need to learn the teachings of pure Muhammadan Islam in a comprehensive, deep, and detailed way.”
ABWA Official Website – On Thursday noon, November 9, 2023, a group of students and teachers of the union of student delegations of Imam Reza (a.s.) met with Ayatollah Reza Ramazani, the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.
In this meeting, after welcoming the guests, Ayatollah Ramazani mentioned a recommendation of the Supreme Leader of the Revolution and said, “In a meeting with university students, the Supreme Leader stated, “I will tell you a sentence that you don’t understand now: life goes by very fast.” May not a person meet God after his death and have nothing to present to God and the divine saints. Therefore, pay attention to the passage of life.”
Addressing the directors of cultural circles, the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, “Sometimes we get so busy with our daily activities and life that we forget ourselves. We must plan for ourselves and examine ourselves in our solitude. The connection with the Quranic verses is the connection with the divine clear spring and the symbol of the manifestation of truth. When you are in contact with the spring, you will always be pure.”
Emphasizing the importance of daily communication with the Quran, he expressed, “Imam Sadiq (a.s.) said, “القرآن عهد الله الى خلقه فقد ینبغى للمرء المسلم أن ینظر فى عهده و أن یقرأ منه فى کل یوم خمسین آیة”. It means the Quran is a divine covenant, so it is very appropriate for every Muslim to pay careful attention to his divine covenant and recite at least fifty verses carefully every day. Reading the Quran in Salah is not a substitute for this recitation. Rather, you should read 50 complete verses a day and ponder about their meanings.”
“God has made the degrees of heaven correspond to the verses of the Quran. The more our understanding of God’s book increases, the more our degrees in heaven will be exalted. Our teacher Allameh Hassanzadeh Amoli always recites this hadith: “فإنَّ دَرَجاتِ الجَنَّةِ على قَدرِ عَدَدِ آياتِ القرآنِ فيقالُ لقارِئ القرآنِ اِقرَأْ و َارْقَ”. That is, the degrees of heaven are equal to the number of verses of the Quran. So, in the afterlife, it will be said to the reciter of the Quran: “Recite and go up.” Quran reciter does not mean someone who has reading skills. Rather, according to hadiths, the reciter of the Quran is the person who understands the Quran and is always with the Quran. Therefore, you should measure yourself in your solitude. The more self-examination we have in our solitude, the more effective our daily lives will be,” Ayatollah Ramazani added.
Then, the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly pointed out the importance of youth and adolescent ages and considered it necessary to recognize talents to take advantage of this golden opportunity.
Emphasizing the words of Imam Ali (a.s.) in Nahj al-Balagha, he said, “Imam Ali (a.s.) addressed Imam Hassan (a.s.) and said: “فَبادَرْتُك بِالأَدَبِ قَبْل أَنْ يَقْسوَ قلبُكَ وَ يَشتغِلَ لُبُّكَ”. It means: “before your heart is hard and your mind is busy, I raised you.” When a person becomes hard-hearted, he no longer understands beautiful words. In this regard, we read in the Holy Quran: “لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ آذَانٌ لَا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا” (They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, they have ears with which they do not hear.) (Holy Quran, Surah: Al-A'raf, Verse: 179). We also read in verse 74 of Surah Al-Baqarah: “ثُمَّ قَسَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ فَهِيَ كَالْحِجَارَةِ أَوْ أَشَدُّ قَسْوَةً” (Then your hearts hardened after that; so they are like stones, or even harder.) Therefore, man must train himself to prevent this damage.”
In describing the interaction with different people, Ayatollah Ramazani said, “Always try to associate with people who are superior to you scientifically or spiritually. Have mutual interactions with people who are at your same level. For example, help and get help; honor others so that people honor you; love others so they love you; remember others well so that others will remember you well. It is beautiful to educate ourselves in such a way that we seek to help others and not to seek to blame them.”
Emphasizing the importance of proper planning, the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly stated, “If we prepare the right plan for communication with ourselves, others, and with God, we will be educated and grow. In cultural activities, you should also look for the intellectual development of yourself and others. Because as the level of our thinking increases, the society develops and becomes wiser.”
Referring to his university studies, he said, “We had a professor named Dr. Shariatmadari who was an educational science specialist and studied in America. He always emphasized that every teacher should teach students how to think. He also constantly recites this hadith: “There is no worship higher than thinking.” Aristotle was asked, “Do you respect your parents more or your teacher? He answered, “Both, but I respect my teacher more. Because my parents raised me descended me (from the spiritual world to the mundane world), but the teacher ascends me (to the higher status)”.”
Advising the youth and adolescents, Ayatollah Ramazani said, “If you go on a pilgrimage, don’t just look for tears. Try to connect with the Infallible (a.s.) to reach understanding and spirituality in addition to tears. Going to the shrine of AhlulBayt (a.s.) means monotheism, God, and joining the source. Whoever cries more is not necessarily a good person. But in its place this tear has value and God is its buyer.”
“For example, everyone who recites the Quran is not necessarily a valuable person. But s/he must also have other merits. Most of the people who participated in the Khawarij War (or Battle of Nahrawan) against Imam Ali (a.s.) were Quran memorizers! But they drew swords against God’s friend! To pass through the superficial life thinking is needed. Thinking gives insight and prevents mistakes. In this regard, the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, “فِكرَةُ ساعَةٍ خَيرٌ مِن عِبادَةِ سَنةٍ”. It means that one hour of thinking is better than one year of worship. Here, the meaning of thinking is correct thinking and not redundant thinking which is referred to as illusion,” added the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.
Emphasizing the importance of teamwork in cultural affairs, he said, “In this field, avoid individual activities and pay attention to the opinion of the group. Don’t be tyrannical in your vote and be gentle with opposing opinions. In this regard Imam Ali (a.s.) said, “من استبدّ بِرأيه هَلك”. It means that the one who is tyrannical about his opinion will perish. Here’s the important thing about group work: respect the group’s opinion, even if it disagrees with yours. This was also the tradition of the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h). He consulted people even though he didn’t need to be consulted because he was Infallible. But he wanted to spread the tradition of consultation in the society.”
“Know that global arrogance is trying to inflict blows on the Islamic Revolution of Iran because of fear of its power. Therefore, you need to learn the teachings of pure Muhammadan Islam in a comprehensive, deep, and detailed way,” said the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly in the end.
