If what he or any other person has said about me is true, I want you to pray for forgiveness for me and if is not right pray for forgiveness for anyone who insult and abuse me and other persons.

According to Ahlul Bayt (A) News Agency – ABNA.ir – Kuwaiti press wrote what Grand Ayatollah Sistani in meeting with a group of Kuwaiti pilgrims in Najaf wants Shia residents in Persian Gulf countries to maintain security and National Unity and avoid sectarian clashes.

Grand Ayatollah Sistani also in a reaction about insulting him by Sheikh Arifi said: “If what he or any other person has said about me is true, I want you to pray for forgiveness for me and if is not right, pray for forgiveness for anyone who insult and abuse me and other persons.”

He added: "The believers have to expand the love culture and repeat “I love you” to their believing brothers. It is also necessary to preserve Islamic unity. "

It is worth noting that one of Wahhabi hard-line cleric called Sheikh Mohammad Arifi more than a month ago in response to requests by some parties of Ayatollah Sistani for mediation to resolve the crisis in Yemen, in a hubristic manner called Grand Ayatollah Sistani as a “debauchee” and “infidel”.
