Shiite movement in world is positive in general: Ayatollah Dorri-Najafabadi

A member of the Supreme Council of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly stated, “The activities of the Assembly should be in such a way that the Shiites feel dignity and identity.”

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): In an interview with ABNA News Agency on the sidelines of the 192nd expanded session of the Supreme Council of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, which was held in Iraq, a member of the Supreme Council of the Assembly, while expressing his gratitude to Hojat al-Islam Sayed Ammar Al-Hakim as the host and other organizers of the session of the Supreme Council, stated, “I hope that in the new phase of activity, with the efforts of our brother Mr. Ramazani, the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly and the Supreme Council, will be able to take great steps in the fields of transformation, efficiency, influence, employing efficient and competent staff, expansion of international communication, and improvement of intellectual and spiritual levels, to bring pride and satisfaction.”

On the issues raised in the 192nd expanded session of the Supreme Council of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, Ayatollah Dorri-Najafabadi expressed, “The recent session was very good and the series of talks by Iranian and non-Iranian Shiite dignitaries was useful. I hope that the session of the Assembly will be a source of blessings for Shiites.”

Regarding the transformational approach of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, a member of the Supreme Council stated, “By the grace of God, there is a great determination among the members, (however) the record and the effects of motivations should be determined in a practical way. On the other hand, the motives must be good, divine, and spiritual. Objectives and ideals are very sacred, and we still have a lot of work to do.”

“The Supreme Council and the Assembly should feel responsible and declare a position regarding various topics and events. Of course, bearing the Quranic verse: “ادْعُ إِلَىٰ سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ” (Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good advice and dispute with them in a manner that is best) (Holy Quran, 16: 125) in mind, adopting positions should be wise, informative, and productive, to be effective. The activities of the Assembly should be in such a way that the Shiites feel dignity and identity, and they feel that they have an identity as Shiites. In this regard, the activities of the Khojas are impressive, remarkable, and a model for us. Considering the large population of Shiites, if we have an organized, networked, and precise activity, we can conquer the world,” he added.

“In my opinion, in general, the Shiite movement in the world is positive,” Ayatollah Dorri-Najafabadi expressed, “Hostilities, conspiracies, obstinacy, and stubbornness against Shia are very widespread. Unfortunately, Shiites in different countries are unjustly facing the blade of various, cowardly, and unfair conspiracies. A lot of pressure has been imposed on the Shiites, and the enemies have launched Shiaphobia and Iranophobia. Or issues related to Imam Mahdi (a.s.), who is the hope of thirsty souls and loving hearts, are presented in an upside-down and distorted form in Hollywood and other media; or they make movies to whitewash Muawiya and Umayyads.”

“In history, the enmity with Shia and turning the facts upside down has been for political purposes, and the same political goals continue today. The descendants of those who wanted to close the door of AhlulBayt’s (a.s.) house in the past, today want to do it in other ways. It means that the methods of Umayyads and Abbasids are being repeated today but their form has been changed. The same behavior and actions of Umayyads and Abbasids, such as making divine harams halal and divine halals haram, squandering, extravagance, and embezzling the Bayt al-mal (treasury of an Islamic country, the public property), are the actions common in the Ignorance Era, which today by Dictatorship regimes in Islamic countries have a new manifestation every day,” he continued.

While referring to the change of the CEO in ABNA News Agency, and describing the responsibility of this News Agency as heavy, he added, “In ABNA, the news related to the mission of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly should be worked. I hope that ABNA will be able to perform good activities for the AhlulBayt (a.s.) followers around the world, and strengthen them, as well as confront the seditions and conspiracies against the AhlulBayt (a.s.) followers in the five continents and be a source of blessings. In the new period of its activity under the new CEO, ABNA should provide a quantitative, qualitative, and efficient wide network around the world.”

“ABNA News Agency can have networks all over the world, having offices in Iraq, as well as other countries. It can act as a worldwide network for AhlulBayt (a.s.) followers, with at least two hundred million visitors,” said Ayatollah Dorri-Najafabadi in the end.
