The Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah sent a condolence message to leader of the Shiite Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheikh Zakzaky, in a letter he wrote on 26th of July 2014.
The message is as follows: "Indeed last night I heard sad news that in one of the International Quds Day Processions in your city, the army opened fire on the procession which led to the killing and injuring tenths of people in the procession among them are your three sons- Ahmad, Hameed and Mahmud , may Allah cover them with mercy.
I'm sending to you, your honorable family and the entire members of the Islamic Movement my pure and sincere condolence and consolation, and at the same time I congratulate you over the martyrdom of those honorable people who were killed on the Right Path; depending the Quds and in promoting the unity of the Islamic Ummah.
For introducing a d seeing your children in the marching and having them among the martyrs is a thing of pride and honor to the leader and his family. May this be the beginning of the flowing of blessings and honour which Allah has reserved for this type of martyrdom to you, your family and your town.
We consider this as an aggression and whoever is behind it must be prosecuted. The case must be pursued with authority until such bloody crime is never repeated again.
Again on behalf of myself and my brothers and sisters in Hezbollah in Lebanon we condoled all of you over the martyrdom and we pray to Allah to accept them among the highest lovely servants. And May He hasten the recovery of the injured and give you and your family the patience and solace to bear( the pain)"
