Alluding to the emphases of the Qur\u2019an and Sunnah on maintaining Muslim Ummah\u2019s unity, Khateeb of Sunnis in Zahedan advised provincial and national officials and directors as well as seminaries to strive for exerting \u201cpractical unity\u201d.<\/p>\n
The official website of Shaikh Abdol-Hamid, Friday Imam of Sunnis in Zahedan city and president of Darululoom Zahedan, reported his sermon of Nov. 23, 2018 where he said: \u201cUnfortunately Muslims have been opposing each other and even they kill each other; while the Noble Qur\u2019an and Hadith clearly call them to unity and solidarity introducing them \u201cone nation\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cUnity of Muslim Ummah is not any analogical issue; rather the texts of the Qur\u2019an and Sunnah urge on unity. It is not any subject to be explained by reasons, it is the obvious need of Muslim Ummah in these circumstances,\u201d he added more.<\/p>\n
The most influential Iranian Sunni leader said: \u201cUnity cannot be achieved by mere slogans and words; it should be brought into act. All officials in the country have to act according practical unity. There should be unity in employments and all citizens should be behaved equally.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a Sunni Imam I should not differentiate between Shia and Sunni comers and visitors. We should respect all Iranians regardless to their sect, then all other Muslims and think for mankind,\u201d he added more.<\/p>\n
Friday Imam of Sunnis in Zahedan further said: \u201cI\u2019d like to convey my message to Shia and Sunni scholars, national and provincial officials, parties and associations to not discriminate Iranian nation. Religious seminaries and Islamic centers of the country should hold this opinion that there is no difference among Iranians and Muslims of the world. We should have fraternity with all Muslims over the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBy practical unity we can approach durable unity and brotherhood and then to durable peace making our lines strong and impenetrable.\u201d<\/p>\n
