AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The leader of the Shiites of Mali said that before the Islamic revolution in the African continent, there was no recognition of AhlulBayt (PBUT) and Shiism, and this blessing prevailed in the African continent thanks to the Islamic revolution of Iran.
Hujjat al-Islam Seyyed Mohammad Shawala Heydara, one of the Shia leaders and a senior member of the Islamic Supreme Council of Mali, on Saturday evening, had a meeting with Ayatollah Arafi, the head of Iran seminary during which he said that thanks to the Islamic Revolution of Iran, the people of our region have reconciled with Shia school and AhlulBayt. if Shia has grown in that region, it was thanks to the Islamic Republic of Iran revolution.
He appreciated the hospitality of the people and officials of Iran, especially the personalities of the seminaries and noted,” I thank God that with the blessing of the Iranian Islamic Revolution, brotherhood, equality, humanity and love in the Islamic nation, especially in the scientific interactions between the seminaries of Iran and Africa is increasing every day.”
The senior member of the Islamic Supreme Council of Mali continued to say that what we are witnessing today in the Islamic Republic of Iran as the flag-bearer of Islam is respect and honor for the missionaries of Islam and Shiism, something that we do not witness in our region from the Salafists and their missionaries. this honor and respect are due to the blessing of the light of AhlulBayt (PBUT) and Shia school in African society.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Sheikh Shawala Heydara noted that today, every step, speech, pulpit and preaching that takes place in African countries is all in the name of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its great leaders.
“The dignity, authority, strength, and power of the Islamic Republic of Iran in all modern fields are the concern of all oppressed Islamic nations, especially in the African continent.” He concluded.
