RNA – In a meeting with the director and deputy members of the Department of Social Welfare of Qom province, Grand Ayatollah Hoseyn Nouri-Hamadani explained that the enemies know Islam and that the Al Saud are one of the most dangerous enemies of Islam because they use religion as a weapon of war.

Saudi Arabia, he said, has established universities and extremist madrassahs which teach Wahhabism. These schools graduate thousands of people every year who believe that Shi’as are infidels and polytheists.

“Wahhabis do not consider resorting to the United States as polytheism but consider resorting to the Infallible Imams as polytheism,” he noted.

Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani emphasized that Islam is a religion of public service, saying that serving the people connects man to God and it should be noted that Islam is considered as the social assistant of the people. He said that service has many forms in Islam and that in the Holy Quran one of the kinds of service mentioned is charity.

He noted that cultural education is also a form of service and added that it is important to prepare the people to sacrifice themselves for revolutionary means and added that revolution has three pillars – pure Muhammadan Islam, the people and guardianship.

“Imam Khomeini revived pure Islam which was marginalized under the Pahlavi regime. Thus, with the advent of Islam, the poor and disadvantaged became hopeful. Now the enemies of Islam have become desperate and frustrated,” the cleric said.

He said these Wahhabis and Takfiris consider killing Shi’as as necessary and lawful and based on the superstitious religion that they have created, every year they print several million Qurans although they are under the domination of the US and Zionists. The same Quran that states Muslims must not take the Jews and Christians as their guardians.

The Iranian scholar noted that the Al Saud are those who sell oil at cheap prices in order to hurt Iran and are Iran’s staunchest enemies and use the title of “Servant of the Two Holy Shrines” to beautify themselves but in reality, they are under the control of the US.

Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani pointed to the presence of over 27 million people present in Karbala during the Arba’een pilgrimage, stressing that Iraq could manage such huge amounts of pilgrims, but Saudi Arabia couldn’t manage the less than three million Hajj pilgrims, and now they claim that Shi’as plan to demolish the Ka’bah.

He continued, saying: “We have no such intention, but if God give us the grace to manage the Hajj pilgrimage, we could manage 50 million pilgrims. The Al Saud do not deserve to manage the Ka’bah. The Al Saud is a tribal government which is similar to the governments of the Era of Ignorance.”

In regard to Yemen, His Eminence that it is possible that Saudi Arabia will feel the effects of their war on Yemen when they rise up against them. They have launched a war against this impoverished Arab county and have purchased most of their weapons from foreign countries.

In conclusion, Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani stressed that given the current conditions facing the world we must be awake to protect Islam and the Islamic system of governance.
