Reacting to the statement of Donald Trump on recognizing Jerusalem as capital of Israel, the most influential Iranian Sunni cleric termed this decision an \u201cinsult of the Muslim world\u201d and \u201cplaying with fire\u201d. He was talking to the general meeting of the 31st Islamic Unity Conference in Tehran on 6th Dec. 2017.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrump and Israeli PM who have been succeeded to create disputes among Muslims, now they see the circumstances suitable for threatening the Muslim world and insulting Ummah,\u201d he added more.<\/p>\n
The president of Darululoom Zahedan further said: \u201cAs a Muslim, I\u2019d like to address all Muslim leaders: aren\u2019t enough for you the betrayals and lies of Trump for you? Trump does not belong to you, but he belongs to Israel. He has some commitments to the Zionists.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shaikh Abdol-Hamid urged on Muslims to be united against the enemies of Islam. He called on the leaders of Islamic and Arab countries to show their opposition to Trump and the occupying Zionist regime.\u201d<\/p>\n
Media and satellite TV channels should preserve respect of sects and personalities<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019d like to call on all media outlets and satellite TV channels of Shia and Sunni communities to preserve each other\u2019s respect. They should protect the dignity of sects and personalities. The state TV and radio (IRIB) should introduce Sunnis more in order to remove misconceptions about Shia-Sunni differences,\u201d Mawlana Abdol-Hamid pointed out.<\/p>\n Recognizing rights reciprocally makes Muslims close to each other<\/strong> He alluded to the status of the Qur\u2019an and Sunnah and said: \u201cMuslims are proud of their valuable heritages such as the Noble Qur\u2019an and beautiful teachings of the prophet Mohammad, peace be upon him. We have a civilization which is the need of all human beings, but most of the people miss it and they cannot bring an example of it.\u201d<\/p>\n Shaikh Abdol-Hamid criticized negligence of Muslims in acting upon the Islamic commands, especially the five-time prayers. He said the Muslim scholars should find any solution for this negligence.<\/p>\n Member of the supreme council of the MWL further said: \u201cThe most important point which should be focused on is the rights of sects. The followers of all sects should preserve each other\u2019s rights and avoid insulting each other. The reciprocal recognition of rights is the main reason for unity and making hearts close.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cLegal freedoms in every country should be realized. The people of Iraq and Syria, after the pains and calamities they endured, they should embrace each other and stand with each other. Also the rest of Muslims should be together,\u201d he concluded his points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Reacting to the statement of Donald Trump on recognizing Jerusalem as capital of Israel, the most influential Iranian Sunni cleric termed this decision an \u201cinsult of the Muslim world\u201d and \u201cplaying with fire\u201d.
