He emphasized that these efforts reflect the desperation of global adversaries in the wake of Iran\u2019s recent military engagement with Israel. He called it part of a Zionist conspiracy. \u201cThis blasphemous media content aired by certain Indian media outlets is not journalism, it\u2019s propaganda meant to alienate the public from the authentic leadership,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Maulana Qomi underscored, \u201cDisrespecting the Supreme Leader is not a mere act of political dissent but a deeper assault on the values and collective spiritual conscience of the Muslim world.\u201d \u201cLet it be clear: any insult to the Supreme Leader or the religious leadership is not a personal affront it\u2019s an ideological attack on the Ummah\u2019s identity and leadership\u201d, he asserted. \u201cAttempts to vilify Ayatollah Khamenei only strengthen our unity and resolve\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Kashmiri scholar further pointed out that even critics of Iran have, at times, conceded the moral authority and personal integrity of Ayatollah Khamenei. \u201cThe media\u2019s current attempts to malign him will not erase this truth\u201d, he said, criticizing the deliberate distortion of facts within journalism. \u201cJournalism is meant to inform and elevate public consciousness, not insult sacred figures or inflame sectarianism,\u201d Maulana Qomi continued.<\/p>\n<p>Maulana Qomi warned that under the guise of free speech, certain Indian media platforms are increasingly being used to stoke division and propagate hate speech. He called for accountability and demanded a formal apology from the outlets responsible, urging them to respect religious boundaries in public discourse.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Maulana Qomi appealed to the people of occupied Jammu and Kashmir to remain united and uphold interfaith harmony despite the ongoing provocations. He reiterated that the integrity and leadership of Ayatollah Khamenei are beyond doubt\u2014even acknowledged by his critics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Qom (Iran): Kashmiri religious scholar, researcher, and journalist Maulana Waseem Reza Qomi has strongly condemned the Indian media propaganda targeting Iran\u2019s supreme leader Ayatollah Syed Ali Khamenei, meant to alienate the public from the authentic leadership.
