RNA – Speaking at the seventh meeting of the series of Conferences on Politics and Insight ‎was held at Qom’s Chaharmardan Mosque, Hujjat al-Islam Sayyed Hoseyn Momeni, a ‎teacher in the Islamic Seminary of Qom, and said, “In the Holy Quran, the lifestyle and the ‎traditions of the Infallible Imams emphasize on the lessons learned from the nations of the ‎past.”‎

His Eminence stressed that we must be precise in regard to the stories and situations that ‎were expressed for the people in the Holy Quran because history is of great importance. ‎History is far from a starting point and people transverse a path and arrive at the same ‎point. However, if the people want to be saved, they must take the past as an example.”‎

He added, “Mankind must examine history in order to know what has led society to rise and ‎develop and what has brought about the backwardness of societies. Sometimes a society is ‎seemingly modern but its inner nature is animalistic and humanity doesn’t exist in it.”‎

Hujjat al-Islam Momeni said that it’s not possible that human behaviour is correct regardless ‎of history and added, “Mankind is not able to be reborn and only lives once, to live again is ‎to learn from the past events in history.”‎

Expressing that precision is necessary in history, he stated, “It’s said that history cannot ‎manage the country is wrong because those who have mastered history and learned from ‎this lesson and example can easily draw the path for the future.”‎

Hujjat al-Islam Momeni said, “If the ummah distances itself from the commandments of the ‎Prophet [Muhammad], they will suffer from a life of ignorance and as long as the ummah ‎acts in accordance with the teachings of the prophets, they will move forward, otherwise ‎they will be plagued by the ignorant society.”‎
