Ayatollah Sa’idi said, “The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly warned Saudi Arabia not to fall into the trap of the Great Satan and the Saudis must abandon their ignorant, hostile, divisive and arrogant stances and support of Takfiri terrorists.” RNA – In his Friday prayer sermon delivered to a large and fervent crowd of believers at Qom’s Qods Prayer Hall, Ayatollah Sayyed Mohammad Sa’idi offered his condolences on the day of Arba’in, which marks the fortieth day after the martyrdom of Imam al-Husayn, and said, “Among religious beliefs, Arba’in has a special place and is a divine phenomenon. Arba’in is the link between the Muhammadan-Alawi revolution and the Mahdawi world revolution. Imam al-Husayn is the founder of the modern Islamic civilization and Arba’in demonstrates the power of the Islamic society and the school of the Ahl al-Bayt.”
The custodian of the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah praised the IRGC’s capture of Ruhollah Zam, the administrator of the AmadNews anti-revolutionary channel on Telegram and said, “This person was strongly supported by the arrogant powers of the world and the defeat of the Zionists, Americans, Europeans and their mercenary intelligence services is a continuation of the successive defeats of the arrogant powers by the Iranian people.”
He said, “Before his exile to Iraq, the late Imam Khomeyni made a statement about the American president of that time [Lyndon B. Johnson], which is true in regard to all American presidents, including Trump, who today is the most unpopular person in our country.”
Referring to the Saudi efforts to end the Yemeni war, Ayatollah Sa’idi said, “The rulers of the House of Saud have been seeking to conquer the territory of the Persian Gulf states since they came to power and began invading the poorest country, Yemen, and several years ago. The brutal invasion of Yemen and the killing of the people didn’t only achieve nothing but they witnessed the disastrous defeat by the Yemeni resistance force.”
The representative of the Supreme Leader in Qom said that the House of Saud was committed to the United States in its criminal actions but the United States thought of nothing else but Saudi money and oil and said, “Petrodollars were used to purchase American weapons and in regard to the Saud’s welcome dance, they were referred to as ‘lactating cows.’”
He added, “Americans have been trapped in the swamps of the region for many years by spending trillions of dollars. The Americans think of nothing but their illegitimate interests. For this reason, the Saudis have resorted to countries such as the Islamic Republic of Iran to exit the swamp of Yemen and their last option was to mediate for Prime Minister of Pakistan [Imran Khan] during his trip to Iran.”
Ayatollah Sa’idi emphasized, “The Islamic Republic of Iran has never started a war with any country since its inception but any country that sought to fight against Iran has become regretful quickly because Iran has always sought peace and friendship with countries around the world, especially the Muslims of the region and its neighbours.”
His Eminence reiterated, “The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly warned Saudi Arabia not to fall into the trap of the Great Satan and the Saudis must abandon their ignorant, hostile, divisive and arrogant stances and support of Takfiri terrorists and as much as they can, they should negotiate with the powerful, independent and respected Islamic Republic of Iran to resolve their problems.”
