AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The revered source of emulation said that some use religion for their sales talk and noted, “Some people, in the name of religion, want to ruin the beliefs of the people.”
In a meeting with a group of students and directors of education from the village of Kahak in Qom province, Grand Ayatollah Mohammad-Ali Alavi Gorgani and said that education is of special importance and said, “It’s more important to acquire knowledge, especially for those who are at the beginning of their work. Thus, you students, an early age, must learn to strengthen the principles of religious foundations.”
The prominent teacher in the Islamic Seminary of Qom said, “We mustn’t look at today but rather to tomorrow, the great personalities of our country are the students and the future of the country is in the hands of these same students and it’s better to be able to develop them in the spheres of Islam, Shi’ism and Revolution so that if they have a position or ministership, they can be the propagators of the people and the spreaders of religion.”
He stated the best time to gain knowledge is during one’s adolescence and youth and said, “Our great scholars said that if a person learns something during his childhood, this learning remains like an impression on a stone but learning when one is older is like an impression on water which doesn’t because in one’s youth, his chest is empty and everything can be placed there and is lasting.”
Ayatollah Alavi Gorgani said, “Before the Islamic Revolution, the people were responsible for the education of the country, who had no religion or inclination to Islam and, in general, their bases were damaged and they certainly didn’t want the children to be religious. For this reason, they taught music and dancing to them and today, our country, thanks to the Islamic Revolution, is a religious country and the people are religious and this is the best opportunity for the people to complete their religion.”
The revered source of emulation added, “You don’t look at the good language but look at the verse of the Quran wherein God says that sometimes some people talk so well that they surprise you and even tow the name of God to reach their worldly goals and man must be warned about these sort of people.”
He added that some use religion for their sales talk and noted, “Some people, in the name of religion, want to ruin the beliefs of the people. First, they speak of religion but when they come to us, no trace of religion cannot be seen in them.”
Ayatollah Alavi Gorgani stated, “Always pursue the statements and the words that are compatible with your Islamic principles, never forget to consult with the great scholars, remember the respect for your teacher and use the source of God’s light and the Ahlul-Bayt in so that in the future, the basic responsibilities of the country are at your disposal, you will be prominent figures and missionaries of religion.”
