Iranians will not tolerate any aggression against Ahlul Bayt shrines, It is our 'Red-line' - President Rouhani

AhlulBayt News Agency - “Martyrs taught us the lesson of unity and sacrifice and taught all Iranians that the Islamic Iran should be proud in the region and the world” said President Rouhani in the Conference of Martyr’s Day.

In this conference which was held on Saturday, Dr Rouhani also said: “Everybody is indebted to great family of the martyrs and we should learn the lesson of sacrifice and serving people from them.”

He added: “The Islamic Revolution was carried out for the sake of morality, brotherhood, and national unity and being revolutionary means being obedient to God”.

Referring to Ahlul Bayt’s (AS) position among the Iranians, he added: “We have repeatedly announced that Ahlul Bayt’s (AS) holy shrines are our red lines”.

Iran does not tolerate any aggression against Ahlul Bayt shrines, President Hassan Rouhani said Saturday.

'There is no question of Iraq, Syria or other countries, Iran will stand against terrorists if they want to cause any aggression against Ahlul Bayt shrines,' stressed the President.

Ahlul Bayt are the family members of great Prophet Mohammad.

Dr Rouhani also condoled the martyrdom of Her Holiness Fatima Al-Zahra (SA) and said: “After Prophet Mohammad’s demise, the first person who chose the path of martyrdom was the Great Lady of Islam, Her Holiness Fatima Al-Zahra (SA)”.

He referred to his regular visits to the great family of martyrs and continued: “We receive ample spirit and spirituality by visiting the family of martyrs and veterans”.

Describing Jihad, faith, self-sacrifice, and martyrdom as the greatest values in the world, Dr Rouhani said: “High spirits of the martyrs’ parents could raise children who exercised sacrifice and Jihad in God’s path and for protecting the country”.

In this ceremony, President Rouhani also received a pictorial carpet from a martyr’s mother and described it as “the greatest honour” to have received such a valuable gift.

Dr Rouhani also slammed the atmosphere of untruthfulness and accusation in the country and said: “We are trying to create an atmosphere of brotherhood and unity in the country for the greatness and comfort of the Iranian nation”.
