Hawzah News Agency (Qom, Iran) - Ayatollah Sa’idi emphasized on the necessity of propagating religion and the recognition of the virtues of the words of the Ahl al-Bayt to the people.
Speaking at the third meeting of a series of meetings on the holy shrines of Iran which was held at the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah, Ayatollah Sayyed Mohammad Sa’idi referred to the guidelines of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution (Ayatollah Khamenei) regarding pilgrimage to the holy shrines and said, “The exaltation of the culture and teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt is the purpose of the people’s journey to the holy places.”
The custodian of the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah continued, “If some people today don’t follow the merits of the words of the Ahl al-Bayt it’s because the officials and cultural authorities have failed to perform their duties properly and haven’t been able to transmit the beauty of the words of the Infallibles to society.”
He emphasized on the necessity of propagating religion and the recognition of the virtues of the words of the Ahl al-Bayt to the people and said, “One of the main points of these meetings on the holy shrines is that we can transfer our experiences to each other so that we can hold better programs for the people.”
Ayatollah Sa’idi said that Iraq is our friendly and neighbouring country, saying, “Under no circumstances will we break relations with Iraq.”
The representative of the Supreme Leader in Qom province continued, “Each of the holy shrines has its own special qualities, for example, the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatimah al-Ma’sumah has its own particular conditions, but in regard to the publication of the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt with other holy shrines there are commonalities and we have to focus on common points.”
He emphasized, “Our main goal, despite the creation of familiarity and affection among the custodians of the holy shrines, is to better disseminate and promote the culture and teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt in society.”
Ayatollah Sa’idi added, “Today, it’s imperative that we share our experiences and put new capacities in the field of the publication of the teachings of the Ahlul-Bayt.”
