RNA – “The aim of the enemies today is to set off a civil war among Muslims which they have unfortunately succeeded to some extent,” the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, said Tuesday on the occasion of the birth anniversary of the Prophet of Islam.

“They are destroying countries one after another. They are destroying Syria, Yemen and Libya. They have Muslims in Bahrain under pressure,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.

The Leader criticized Muslim silence in his address to a group of participants at an international conference on Islamic unity held in Tehran, Muslim ambassadors, and Iranian officials.

“In Nigeria, why is this level of tragedy being brought on that peaceful, pro-proximity and faithful shaykh? Why is the world of Islam silent?” Ayatollah Khamenei said, referring to Shaykh Ibrahim al-Zakzaky who is being held incommunicado in military detention.
