World Assembly stated, \u201cThe Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) is a mercy for the world, and his management was based on ethics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cDue to his outstanding morals and behavior, the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) was able to influence human society, and during his 23-year prophethood, Islam became widespread. The claim that \u201cIslam is a religion of violence\u201d is a distortion. However, Islam has ordered jihad against the polytheists and tyrants, and the Holy Quran emphasizes resistance against the oppressors,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe Umayyads and Abbasids used religion to gain power, not to guide the people,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani stated, \u201cToday, Machiavellians use any means to consolidate and increase power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe Infallibles (a.s.) and religious scholars have argued that religion should be for guidance, and that religious values should be observed in society. With the institutionalization of religious values in human society, it will prosper individually and socially,\u201d he mentioned.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThroughout history, some have tried to restrict religion. In Europe and America, there are 4,000 false spiritualities, from which religion and God are excluded,\u201d said the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cSociety must be governed by religious precepts, and the social aspect of religion must be revived,\u201d he stated, \u201cDignitaries such as Martyr Ayatollah Modarres, Sheikh Fazlullah Nouri, Ayatollah Kashani, etc., in different historical periods, tried to achieve religious rule in society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cToday, human society is governed in such a way that religion cannot be the basis of governance. In Muslim countries, religion is not the basis of governance. For example, the governance system of Indonesia, with 225 million Muslim population, is not Islamic,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cAlso, in Saudi Arabia, the rulers who claim to be the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, stablish an ominous triangle, and ratify major arms deals in the capital, Riyadh,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cIf Islamic countries were united, they could be an economic power today. But, by creating divisions, the Westerners prevented this alliance. The global arrogance, using some individuals and the groups it formed, has tried to introduce Islam as a religion of violence, and to portray the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) as thirsty for power. But all their conspiracies have been foiled,\u201d added the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cImam Khomeini (r.a.) believed that nothing would happen if the people themselves did not rise up. Sacrifice is required for the full realization of justice in society,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cFormer Soviet Union introduced religion as \u2018opium for people\u2019,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani added, \u201cAnd the West, in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, waged a war of religion and the Quran, claiming that they would only accept things that could be proven to them by experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cWith the implementation of religion in the social sphere, man is promoted and does not remain in the materialistic life. Imam Khomeini (r.a.) also emphasized that man should develop himself, and acts of worship such as prayer, fasting, etc., provide the ground for his progress,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cMartyr Motahari believed that Imam Khomeini (r.a.) was enduring, and God was felt in all his dimensions,\u201d continued the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cImam Khomeini (r.a.) was not afraid of anyone and said that he is always present in the field of action for God. He said that even if he was exiled to the seas, he would rise up in the way of God there. We should believe only in God as the source of power. If he wants, all the palaces of power will collapse,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">Ayatollah Ramazani continued to say, \u201cPeople like Martyr Rudbari were students of Imam Khomeini\u2019s school, and they were always ready to revive the religion of God and the divine commandments. Today, the confrontation between political and pro-justice Islam against global arrogance is underway.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe martyr Sayed Yunus Rudbari, the martyrs of the Islamic Revolution and the Holy Shrine Defenders, sought the pride of Muslims. Muslims must be strong, and proudly stand against the oppression of the tyrants,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cWithout the political and social dimension of human life, Muslims will have nothing to say in the world,\u201d stated the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cImam Khomeini (r.a.) sought to introduce a solution in the postmodern world, and that is the fact that Islam has the governance power,\u201d he added, \u201c15 Khordad Uprising coincided with the 12<sup>th<\/sup> of Muharram (1383 AH). This means that the month of Muharram (and the uprising of Imam Hussein) can manifest the political dimension of religion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cIn 1986, during the eight-year Iraq-Iran war, a conference in Tel Aviv concluded that the people and youth of Islamic Iran believed in the culture of Ashura, the truth of Imam Hussain (a.s.), and the living Promised Savior. In 1979, zealous young Iranians came to the fore to carry out the divine ules, and today we are entrusted with the Islamic Republic, and it must be properly protected,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani noted.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe Islamic Revolution must be entrusted to the deprived. For the Islamic Revolution to continue its path, we must make progress on scientific issues, ethics and spirituality, and the realization of justice,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cIslam emphasizes preserving ethics in management and politics. What have kept Islam alive so far has been the original clerics represented by Sheikh Mufid, Sheikh Saduq, Martyr Modarres, and so on,\u201d stated the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cDissociation from clerics means dissociation from revolutionary, political, true, and pure Muhammadan Islam,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cUnfortunately, some people mistakenly blame the leader of the revolution and the president for the collapse of the Metropole building in Abadan. However, they have nothing to do with this issue. The perpetrators and traitors of such incidents need to be tried without any waiver,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani said, emphasizing that the government is trying to solve economic problems, and efforts must be made to prevent pressure on the people.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cOfficials and clerics should be more cautious in their conduct and should not seek personal use of their positions and gaining power,\u201d he clarified, referring to the fact that the Islamic Republic is advancing rapidly, and the enemy is trying to usurp the hijab, the government and Islam.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">Sating that gratitude for the blessings of the Islamic Revolution means supporting Islam, the people and the Supreme Leader of the Revolution, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.)
