According to the AhlulBayt World Assembly News Portal: <\/strong>In the 16th<\/sup> episode of the special internet program \u201cFacing the Sky\u201d, which is broadcast on the occasion of the holy month of Ramadan, pointing out that the Imams (a.s.) have the best attributes and characteristics and we should consider them as role models, Ayatollah Reza Ramazani Gilani stated, \u201cShiites are proud to be followers of Imam Ali (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cMan can learn and pay attention to many points from the reign of Imam Ali (AS),\u201d added the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, stating that during his rule Imam Ali (a.s.) was able to implement justice in the true sense in society.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cImam Ali (a.s.) has made some remarks about those who serve the people as community leaders,\u201d he stated, referring to the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Ali (a.s.) in the month of Ramadan.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThese people should see responsibility as an opportunity and collect luggage for their world and the hereafter by serving the people,\u201d noted Ayatollah Ramazani, pointing out that the officials should have a view of serving the people of the society.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe principle of service is one of the most important principles for community leaders,\u201d added the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, emphasizing that man should make the best use of the opportunity and blessing that God gives him.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOfficials need to know that these opportunities are fleeting and will be taken away after a period of years,\u201d he emphasized, stating that today the officials of the country should consider serving as the most important principle in their term of responsibility.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cSometimes a person is given a four-year opportunity to run for president, parliament, ministry, governorate, city council, etc. to work for the affairs of society and the welfare of the people. One must appreciate this opportunity,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani stated.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTo whom God has given many blessings, people also come to him. This is a divine success,\u201d said the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, referring to the speech of Imam Ali (a.s.) addressed to Jaber.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cImam Ali (a.s.) said in another situation, \u201cIf the blessings are used for God, God will make those blessings lasting for the person, and if the blessings are not used properly, they will be destroyed\u201d,\u201d he mentioned.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cImam Ali (as) also emphasizes speeding up the service and meeting the needs of others,\u201d added Ayatollah Ramazani, pointing out that if a person does something for others and expresses it, he has destroyed the (divine) reward of good deeds.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOfficials should be aware and know that if it were not for the people, they would not be in their current position,\u201d stated the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, saying that man should not reproach for his good deeds and solving people\u2019s problems.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIf someone considers his good deed to be great, he has done a disgraceful act and destroyed the value and beauty of his deed,\u201d he said, considering kindness and attention to the client as a characteristic of an official at the level of the (Iranian) Islamic Revolution.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cImam Ali (a.s.) also said about the beauty of charity, \u201cWhen you give something to charity, do it so that it is pleasing to you and you enjoy it\u201d,\u201d emphasized Ayatollah Ramazani, pointing out that breaking the promise in social affairs leads to the anger of the people and God.<\/p>\n

\nSaying that according to the hadiths, a person who wants to meet the needs of others should pay attention to three things, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly added, \u201cThe first is that one should underestimate the service he renders and not reproach for it. Second, he must try to cover his service and know that it will be evident itself. And third, he must hasten and rush to serve and meet the needs of others.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOfficials must seek to serve the people in order to gain and increase public trust,\u201d he clarified, stating that today\u2019s society needs a service movement.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe more the people trust the servicing officials, the more social and political security will be created,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani said, \u201cAt home and abroad, this security can be effective and lead to a social power.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nStating that the enemies of Islam cannot infiltrate a nation that trusts its officials, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, \u201cHow the executive, legislative and judicial branches deal with and enact protective laws for the people is effective in creating and strengthening this trust.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWhen the best kind of service is provided, the enemy never has the illusion of entering and infiltrating the country,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe judiciary must stop violating the rights of the people,\u201d said Ayatollah Ramazani, referring to the need for judicial security in society.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe fight against embezzlers, thieves, and those who neglect to service people must be pursued seriously and firmly,\u201d added the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cSecurity is for those who respect the law of the country and perform their religious and legal duties,\u201d he added, stating that those who violate people\u2019s rights should not have security in society.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe traitors to the nation and the martyr-nurturing people of Islamic Iran should not feel safe and the judiciary should confront them,\u201d emphasized Ayatollah Ramazani, pointing out that the (Iran\u2019s) Islamic system has people who have shown their presence in various sensitive areas.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cToday, we need to implement lessons and messages of Imam Ali (a.s.) in executive affairs and serving the people,\u201d concluded the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly in the end.<\/p>\n
