World Assembly said, \u201cThe Holy Month of Ramadan is filled with countless blessings and virtues. In this sacred month, each individual benefits from its blessings in proportion to his capacity and level of attentiveness to the Almighty God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Referring to the rules of Ramadan, he added, \u201cSome people observe Ramadan merely by refraining from eating and drinking, which are only the outward aspects of fasting. However, adhering to morality, faith, piety, truthfulness, and restraining one\u2019s tongue and eyes are among the essential etiquettes of this holy month.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">The representative of the people of Gilan Province in the Assembly of Experts stated, \u201cThe Qadr Nights are nights of fulfilling wishes. Many patients and a great number of people rely on the blessings and miracles of these nights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Emphasizing that Imam Ali (a.s.) is a comprehensive model for humanity, he continued, \u201cImam Ali (a.s.) is not exclusive to a particular religion or society but belongs to all of humanity, and everyone can benefit from his spiritual grace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\"><strong>Increasing Awareness of the AhlulBayt (a.s.)\u2019s Teachings Protects Society from Deviation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Highlighting the spiritual distance between society and the Infallible Imams (a.s.), especially Imam Ali (a.s.) and Imam Mahdi (a.s.), Ayatollah Ramazani stated, \u201cThe Qadr Nights provide an opportunity to bridge this gap with Imam Mahdi (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Stressing the necessity of increasing society\u2019s knowledge of the AhlulBayt\u2019s (a.s.) way of life, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly added, \u201cGreater awareness of the teachings of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) protects society from deviation and misguidance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">He further said, \u201cImam Ali (a.s.) serves as a governance model for religious leaders. Establishing justice in society is only possible through the governance and leadership of Imam Ali (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Ayatollah Ramazani continued, \u201cThere are various definitions of justice worldwide. Many claim to be advocates of justice, yet their actions and behavior bear no resemblance to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">\u201cThese days, words like justice, freedom, spirituality, and decency are marginalized in society,\u201d stated the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly. \u201cThe arrogant powers of the world have laid the foundation for a new form of colonialism using deceptive and sophisticated rhetoric.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\"><strong>Imam Ali (a.s.) is the Best Model for Justice Seekers Around the World<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">He continued, \u201cThose who claim to defend human rights will go to any lengths to solidify the system of domination. In the realm of oppression on the word justice, the best model for justice seekers worldwide is Imam Ali (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Regarding the prerequisites for reviving the Quran, the AhlulBayt (a.s.), and justice in society, Ayatollah Ramazani stated that Imam Ali (a.s.) is a crucial and decisive model for the revival of the Quran and the Prophet\u2019s progeny (a.s.). \u201cAll the pure qualities of humanity and Islam can be found in the blessed and radiant personality of Imam Ali (a.s.), serving as an example for all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Referring to Imam Ali\u2019s (a.s.) profound knowledge, the representative of Gilan Province in the Assembly of Leadership Experts added, \u201cIn the words and actions of Imam Ali (a.s.), countless rare and unparalleled golden principles can be found.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Emphasizing the necessity of gaining deep knowledge and understanding of Imam Ali (a.s.), Ayatollah Ramazani stated, \u201cThe Alawi way of life must be implemented in the core of people\u2019s daily lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Highlighting the numerous injustices inflicted upon the Infallible Imams (a.s.) throughout history, the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.)

Islam, the Quran, the magnificent Arbaeen Walk, and Karbala have all reached us through immense struggles and sacrifices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">He emphasized that a monotheistic perspective and commitment to justice can reform society, adding, \u201cThe division between rulers and the people makes social reform difficult and impossible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Concluding his remarks, Ayatollah Ramazani highlighted the characteristics of a religious society: \u201cA religious society is one that values spirituality, prioritizes knowledge, and is grounded in rationality.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ayatollah Ramazani, emphasizing the necessity of gaining deep knowledge and understanding about Imam Ali (a.s.), stated, \u201cThe Alawi way of life must be implemented in the core of people\u2019s daily lives.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":61268,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58],"tags":[197,1040,1767,1745],"class_list":["post-61271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-secretary-general","tag-ayatollah-reza-ramazani","tag-imam-ali-a-s","tag-qadr-nights","tag-ramadan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61271","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61271"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61271\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":88422,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61271\/revisions\/88422"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61271"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61271"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
