World’s attention to AhlulBayt (a.s.) school creates responsibility for the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly: Raisi

Iran’s President said, “The duty of ulama is to introduce the words of Imams (a.s.) and the way of humanity’s salvation. By establishing a correct understanding of the AhlulBayt (a.s.), it will be clear that the missing thing of contemporary man is Imam Hussain (a.s.), Imam Ali (a.s.) and Lady Fatimah Zahra (a.s.).”

On Thursday, September 1, 2022, at the opening ceremony of the 7th General Assembly of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly which was held with the motto: “AhlulBayt (a.s.), the axis of rationality, justice and dignity” in the Iran International Conference Center, Ayatollah Dr. Sayed Ebrahim Raisi stated, “AhlulBayt (a.s.) are the key to all goodness, the axis of rationality, justice, dignity, humanity and knowledge, and the manifestation of all beauty in the world.”

“The true recognition and introduction of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) is the main mission of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly of the and all learned scholars. In the life of Imams (a.s.), three principals have been central: 1. Recognizing the position of Velayat and Imamate and guiding people, 2. Confronting oppression and tyranny, and 3. Education of susceptible people,” Iran’s President said.

Referring to today’s threats against human societies, especially cultural threats, Dr. Raisi stated, “The redemption path for man as well as the Islamic Ummah is to know and recognize the infallible AhlulBayt (a.s.) and to understand the enlightening words of these nobles, and to step in the path that they have drawn.”

“If missionaries correctly introduce the enlightening and redeeming path of AhlulBayt (a.s.), all the freedom seekers will accept it. The great mission of preaching Islam and introducing the AhlulBayt (a.s.) has always faced difficulties and obstacles. Because the enemies never allow the truth to be heard easily. But relying on God’s power is the key to success and excellence in this path,” Raisi emphasized.

“Seeking justice is one of the important AhlulBayt (a.s.) teachings. Those who want to invite people to justice by following AhlulBayt (a.s.) in the human society, must be justice seeker themselves,” Hojat al-Islam Raisi stressed.

“Rationality is another important teaching of AhlulBayt (a.s.). The rational message of Imam Hossein (a.s.) to reform the society is not just for 61 Hijri (680 AD), rather, until the earth and time exist, his reformation cry resonates in the human society, and anyone who seeks justice and reforms anywhere in the world has followed the words of the Master of the Martyrs,” Iran’s president clarified.

Referring to the efforts of imperialism to create intellectual deviation in human societies, and to distance contemporary man from the enlightened path of AhlulBayt (a.s.), Dr. Raisi said, “In terms of its nature, modern ignorance is the same as old ignorance, but with a new form and appearance. The difference is that today, imperialism has used all the facilities, from science and technology to media power, to propagate its ignorant message, and tries to impose false moral indicators in societies.”

Referring to the movements formed along the Ashura school, as a way to protect humanity against deviant schools, Raisi said, “Despite the efforts of the domineering powers, and oppression, tyranny, ignorance, and injustice in different parts of the world, the name of Hussein bin Ali (a.s.) and the school of Ashura will transform the world and will gradually spread rationality and justice in the world.”

Further in his speech, pointing out the cruel actions of the domineering regime against the Iranian people, the president stated, “In the past 43 years (after the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran), the enemies did a lot of oppression to the Iranian nation. But despite many problems and the loss of many loved ones, the Islamic Republic overcame the challenges and today the world has recognized the righteousness, justice and high status of Islamic Iran.”

“Today, it has been proven to everyone that the Islamic Republic of Iran is an invincible government and a power that does not accept domination. American officials have officially admitted that their policy of maximum pressure against the will of the Iranian people has failed miserably and will not work,” Dr. Raisi said.

“What has been manifested today in Hezbollah, Yemeni and Palestinian youth, as well as all branches of the Resistance Front, is the strategic hand of the Islamic Republic and manifestations of divine love,” continued the president.

“Sincerely following the teachings of Imams (a.s.), who are guides, is the key to improving morality and spirituality in human societies. It is a matter of happiness that today the attention to the AhlulBayt (a.s.) school is increasing all over the world, and this issue creates a responsibility for the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly. The Infallible Imams (a.s.) are the key to the unity of the Islamic Ummah. This school has nothing to do with the excesses, rather its focus is on rationality, humanity and righteousness,” Dr. Raisi said.

“Today, many claim to defend human rights. But unfortunately, with a double standard, they have remained silent against the violation of the rights of many people. This is while Imam Ali (a.s.) has the most valuable words about the importance of human rights in his letter and order to Malik al-Ashtar so that we can proudly show those concepts to the whole world,” the president noted.

“Hope and creating hope are other teachings of AhlulBayt (a.s.). Today, anyone who is in despair anywhere in the world can find hope by adhering to the AhlulBayt (a.s.) teachings,” dr. Rraisi mentioned.

“The profound concept of Awaiting creates hope. In their educational teachings for human society, AhlulBayt (a.s.) have emphasized a lot on hope. They want man to live with hope and to know that even after death, he will one day rise from the ground and walk with the Savior of Mankind,” the president emphasized.

Before the President’s speech, Ayatollah Ramazani, Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, presented a report on the activities and programs of the Assembly and announced that the Assembly’s 30-year performance report will be published.

Ramazani said, “The new period of activity of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly is the period of transformation in the approach, function, structures and methods of the Assembly. In the 7th General Assembly, the latest developments in the region and the Islamic world will be studied with the presence of officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

In this ceremony, which was held with the presence of the ambassadors of some Islamic countries, representatives of the sources of emulation, and prominent religious and cultural figures from 117 countries of the world, the new website of WikiShia, which operates in 10 languages, and 5 new languages have been recently added to it, was unveiled with the presence of the Iranian president.
