RNA – In his Friday prayer sermon to a large and fervent crowd of believers at Qom’s ‎Qods ‎‎‎‎Prayer Hall, Ayatollah Alireza Arafi ‎referred to the unparalleled opportunity of the holy month ‎of Ramadhan for the spiritual progress of the people and said, “During the holy month of ‎Ramadhan, even the breathing and the sleep of a fasting person are considered as ‎glorification.”‎
‎ ‎
Referring to the economic pressures on the people, the head of the Islamic Seminaries of ‎Iran ‎ said, “Ramadhan must illuminate so much at home and in society so that we witness a ‎reduction in social damages and crimes. During the month of Ramadhan, judicial cases are ‎reduced and social damages are reduced which must continue throughout the year. It’s ‎expected that the holy month of Ramadhan in Qom will be more magnificent and solve the ‎problems. Everyone must observe the sanctities of Ramadhan and realize the message of ‎Ramadhan in their lives.”‎

Referring to the state of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and added, “The ‎people stand against the enemies’ nonsense and we support all of those who are ready and ‎have taken action against the enemies. The post-JPCOA era is a bitter story for humanity.”‎

Ayatollah Arafi said that the post-JCPOA era demonstrates how much patience and tolerance ‎the people and Supreme Leader have and how strongly they adhere to contracts and ‎standards and said, “The whole world saw how patient and noble Iran was. The post-JCPOA ‎era demonstrated that the most deceitful government in the world is the wretched ‎government of the United States.”‎
‎ ‎
The member of the Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom ‎continued, “There are hundreds of ‎betrayals, crimes and acts of treachery in the black case of the United States. On the other ‎hand, the Europeans who are the signers of the JCPOA didn’t pass the test and they never ‎adhered to this treaty and today they speak against Iran.”‎
‎ ‎
He said, “In the post-JCPOA era, we saw that the Zionists and the wretched states of the ‎region accompanied the enemies and didn’t even protest against the cruel sanctions and ‎even supported them. Once again, international organizations and the United Nations ‎Security Council refused them. The organizations must stand against the sanctions and ‎betrayals and issue resolutions but they didn’t do such a thing.”‎

Ayatollah Arafi said, “Iran will stand up to the enemies with pride and honour and defeat the ‎sanctions but other countries of the world have been humiliated because the United States ‎considers itself to be the sheriff and doesn’t consider the rest of mankind.”‎
‎ ‎
The member of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution noted that today, the ‎enemies want to intensify the sanctions but the Iranian people, who endured great ‎hardships, stand firmly against its enemies and shouts “hayhat minna al-dhillah” [‘we will ‎never be humiliated’].‎
‎ ‎
He said, “The enemies dream of defeating the Islamic Revolution and sending Islam to the ‎grave. We Iranians are patient and tolerant but as we are the children of Ramadhan and ‎Muharram, the IRGC, the Basij, the popular forces and the Islamic Resistance Front stands ‎against the arrogant powers.”‎

Proclaiming support for the statement of the Supreme National Security Council and the ‎country’s actions against the enemies, Ayatollah Arafi ‎said, “These steps are praised and the ‎people are telling the authorities to stand and continue the path of resistance with vigilance ‎and wisdom.”‎
