AhlulBayt News Agency - "The Islamic Government is responsible for providing security and safety for all its citizens who are living under the banner of Islam, in the present time this responsibility is given to the police force," Ayatollah Javadi Amoli said.
Referring to the high position of Ahl-ul-Bayt (PBUT) as role models in the Islamic society, the senior cleric added," Holy Infallibles (PBUT) are considered the pride of Islam and our role models in life; if one truly follows their footsteps and guidelines in the pure sense of the word, they can fulfill the purpose of religion and serve the realization of security and safety in society."
The Ayatollah went on, "At the time of Imam Ali's administration (Caliphate) Egyptians said Imam Ali (PBUH) is our leader and Malik al-Ashtar is our governor, but despite this saying, their society later collapsed; therefore Muslims must be vigilant that despite having great leadership, their society will eventually decline if its citizens are not conscious or alert in tough situations," Ayatollah Javadi added.
