RNA – Grand Ayatollah Hoseyn Nouri-Hamadani expressed concern over the worsening ‎situation facing Shaykh Ibrahim Zakzaky and called for the freedom-loving people and ‎Muslims of the world to give their support to the leader of the Shi’ahs of Nigeria.‎

Shaykh Zakzaky, the leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN), has been in ‎detention since December 2015 after his residence in the city of Zaria was raided by Nigerian ‎forces, during which he was beaten and lost his left eye.‎

His wife also sustained serious wounds while more than 300 of his followers and three of his ‎sons were killed in the violence.‎

Last week, members of the IMN said that the cleric had been poisoned in prison and ‎required urgent medical care abroad.‎
‎ ‎
The text of the revered source of emulation is as follows:‎

In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

It is with complete sorrow that we hear of the unfortunate news about the situation of the ‎warrior scholar, His Eminence Shaykh Zakzaky.‎

The crimes that are occurring in Nigeria today, wherein a significant number of people are ‎suffering from tribulation and torture, are a matter of grave concern.‎

This warrior scholar has been deprived of his basic rights and has been sentenced on false ‎charges and has been subject to torture and imprisonment for a long time. ‎

The false claimants of human rights have closed their eyes to these crimes and have chosen ‎deadly silence and have offered eternal hatred and disgrace. International organizations have ‎lost their identity by remaining silent in the face of this criminal act and have practically ‎become useless organizations. ‎

It is imperative for all lovers of freedom and all Muslims to declare their support for these ‎freedom-seeking people, especially Shaykh Zakzaky, and condemn this crime.‎

The respected officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran will also continue their efforts to save ‎these oppressed people. ‎
