Budgam: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, All Parties Hurriyat Conference senior leader and President of Mutahida Majlis-e-Ulema Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has paid rich tributes to the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, describing him as a towering religious and political figure whose life reflected faith, courage, steadfastness and concern for the unity and dignity of the Muslim Ummah.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq addressing a memorial event organised by Anjuman-e-Sharie Shian, headed by Agha Syed Hasan Al-Moosvi Al-Safvi in Budgam said that Ayatollah Khamenei\u2019s life carried an important message for Muslims across the world that faith is not confined only to personal worship, but also demands standing for justice, defending human dignity, speaking for the oppressed and resisting injustice with wisdom and courage.<\/p>\n
He said the greatest tribute to Ayatollah Khamenei would be to uphold the cause of Muslim unity. \u201cIn a time when the Ummah faces division, conflict and external pressures, his message reminds us that Shia and Sunni, despite differences of school and opinion, are part of one Ummah, with one Qur\u2019an, one Prophet (pbuh) and one Qibla,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Referring to Ayatollah Khamenei\u2019s principled position on nuclear weapons, he said that despite facing repeated threats and pressure, he opposed the acquisition and use of nuclear weapons, viewing them as contrary to Islamic teachings and against humanity. He said this moral position was significant in an age where destructive power is often mistaken for strength, while true strength lies in justice, restraint and responsibility.<\/p>\n
Mirwaiz also recalled Ayatollah Khamenei\u2019s consistent support for the Palestinian people and their right to dignity, justice and freedom. He said that the suffering of Palestine continues to remain a wound on the conscience of the world and a test of the moral responsibility of the Muslim Ummah and the international community.<\/p>\n
Mirwaiz prayed for the departed leader and said that his legacy should inspire Muslims to reject sectarianism, strengthen brotherhood, stand with the oppressed and work for justice, peace and unity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
