The Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly stated, “The martyrs of the terrorist attack in a Shiite mosque in Peshawar, Pakistan, are the martyrs and devotees of the path of Islam. Although the perpetrators of this painful crime also identify themselves as Muslims, Islam has nothing to do with violence and the killing of innocent people.”

Ayatollah Reza Ramazani, who was in Mashhad to attend the 190^th meeting of the Supreme Council of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, led Maghrib and Isha prayers in the Imam Khomeini Great Portico at the invitation of Astan Quds Razavi.
