Rasa News Agency – Ayatallah Makarem Shirazi one of the scholars in a meeting which was held for the celebration of the birthday of the greatest lady of Islam Fatima Zahra in Amir al mo’menin Islamic school, emphasized: “We hope that we can be very good servants for Islam and the path of Ahululbayt so we can maintain the greatness of this country.”
He in his speech mentioned the development of Islam and said: “Prophet Muhammad in a narration mentioned two factors that causes the development of Islam and two factors that causes defeat for Islam”
Development factors:
According to the narration of Prophet Muhammad he mentioned the simple living and neglecting worldly traps and the powerful faith in Allah, Prophet and the Resurrection as two factors for developing fast for Muslims and noted: “during the imposed war we could see our warriors with their faith and resorting to the lady Fatima al Zahra and reciting the prayers they were able to overcome the enemies and they never lost.”
Ayatallah Makarem Shirazi emphasized: “Lots of the American soldiers during the occupation in Iraq start to have mental problems and many of them committed suicide but we hardly saw this kind of issues in between our fighters, everyone went to defend Islam with love and this is the difference between these two doctrines.”
He added: “our community is very religious community and we have some families that sacrificed couple of their children for the Islamic revolution and if any war happens again they will give a very hard defeat to the enemies.”
The Ayatollah considers the weakness of faith and attachment to the world and the luxury-oriented as failures and asserted: “Beware that enemies do not weaken your strong faith and belief with conspiracy.”
He expressed : “our enemy realized what is our strength and they are looking to overcome us through making doubts in our religion and if we fail in this we will fail in the other fields too.”
If America and Israel commit any stupid act, they would receive the harshest reaction from the Iranian people.
Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi described the enemies of the Islamic Republic of Iran as very weak and unable to encounter the Iranian nation and asserted: “If they show any stupid act the youth dressed with shrouds will be soldiers with those warriors who created an epic in the eight years war with Iraq would respond strongly and stand against them.”
The Ayatollah considered faith and not having fear of death to defend Islam as our factor for victory and emphasized: “This faith is a weapon that the enemy would never have.”
He expressed: “as the honorable Leader of the Revolution emphasized ; enemies are plotting from inside and outside, but with god’s mercy the warriors are strongly standing against the enemies and because our trust is just in God we believe that we are the winners.”
