Qom Friday Prayer Leader:‎
Rasa – Ayatollah Sa’idi referred to the recent floods in Iran and said, “‎Fortunately, the ‎people, authorities and flood victims emerged from this divine test with ‎honour and the ‎Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution [Ayatollah Khamenei] interpreted ‎it as the power ‎of the mobilization of the Iranian people.”‎

RNA – In his Friday prayer sermon delivered to a large and fervent crowd of believers in ‎‎‎‎‎‎‎Qom’s Qods Prayer Hall, Ayatollah Sayyed Mohammad Sa’idi ‎referred to the recent floods in ‎several provinces of Iran and the loss of a number of fellow citizens and great damage and ‎expressed sympathy with the victims and said, “There are many lessons in these events. The ‎situation is critical in terms of the extensiveness and involvement of the whole country, the ‎astonishment of the people and the officials, as well as the necessity of speed in managing ‎the events.”‎

The custodian of the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah said that in such a critical ‎situation, its necessary to overcome the crisis through charity, rapid action, synergy, ‎prioritization and mobilizing all capacities and facilities, and said, “Fortunately, the people, ‎authorities and flood victims emerged ‎from this divine test with honour and the Supreme ‎Leader of the Islamic Revolution [Ayatollah Khamenei] interpreted it as the power of the ‎mobilization of the Iranian people.”‎

He added, “Flood compensation, such as house reconstruction, grants and agricultural loans, ‎housing and livestock has been promised by the president [Hasan Rouhani] and the first ‎vice-president [Eshaq Jahangiri] and the government has passed approvals in this regard. ‎The necessary damages are estimated at the price of the day and the payments to the ‎injured will be paid in the near future.”‎

Ayatollah Sa’idi ‎praised the precise information provided during the management of the crisis ‎by the IRIB, “The people must receive information about the flood and similar critical ‎conditions only from official channels and the national media. It’s natural that the enemies ‎will strive to create rumours, inflame false news, magnify the problems and turn some of the ‎disruptions into insecurity in order to discourage the people and discredit the presence of ‎people on the scene of the defence of the Islamic Revolution, such as their presence on the ‎‎22nd of Bahman. For this reason, the people must raise their level of consciousness.”‎
‎ ‎
The representative of the Supreme Leader in Qom‏ ‏stated, “The people and the authorities ‎will be able to overcome the conditions in the best manner, unlike the ‘Great Satan’ [United ‎States] which is still suffering from floods and wildfires in their own country and haven’t done ‎a decent job for their people so far. But despite this, they have engaged in creating defects ‎for others and, contrary to all international rules, they have even extended their cruel ‎sanctions against the flood victims and this oppression against humanity that has been done ‎by these wild animals, such as Donald Trump.”‎

He thanked the management, instruction and guidance of the Supreme Leader for solving the ‎problems of the flood victims and the sources of emulation for their assistance and the ‎permission to allocate part of the Imam’s share of the khums tax to the flood victims.”‎
‎ ‎
Ayatollah Sa’idi ‎said, “The sources of emulation are the lights of guidance for the people in ‎regard to enjoining good deeds and we hope that the years of drought in the country will ‎turn into years of rain and the Iranian people will benefit more from the divine blessings ‎after the recent events and the exoteric appearance of these tribulations will have a blessed ‎esoteric meaning for the country.”‎
