The Takfiris present Muslims as a group that are thirsty for bloodshed,” Sayyed Nasrallah said, “This would consecrate this falsified concept about Islam.”
Hezbollah’s secretary-general Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah asserted that what the Takfiris are committing nowadays is the most serious distortion of Islam throughout the history as the means of communication and media convey the images to the entire world.
His Eminence pointed out that the Takfiri thought is based on atoning, shedding blood, confiscating properties and violating the honour of all who are different (others). “The Takfiri thought was established in the Arab world almost 200 years ago and was provided with financial as well as governmental capabilities which founded the universities, schools, newspapers, and houses of publications in order to pervade its concepts all over the world.”
“Islam, the nation and the Islamic societies are being threatened by this Takfiri thought whose causes, not effects must be addressed,” Sayyed Nasrallah added.
Sayyed Nasrallah called on defending Islam as he saw that the Sunni and the Shiite clerics must loudly convey the reality of Islam to the world.
The Hezbollah leader considered that the confrontation with Takfirism must be primarily cultural, intellectual and scientific.
Sayyed Nasrallah also called on preventing the spread of this trend, considering that Saudi Arabia is primarily responsible for this task by closing the schools from where the Takfiri ideology emerges.
