Hawzah News Agency (Qom, Iran) – Ayatollah Alavi Gorgani received a group of students from Avicenna university of Hamadan in his office in the holy city of Qom on Tuesday, January 24.

During the meeting, he addressed the students saying, “Our nation is blessed with living in the light of Quranic principles and teachings of the Ahlulbayt (as); we make our lives worthwhile by adhering to these invaluable sources.”

 The senior cleric added, “Prophet Muhammad (sawa) has taught whatever was necessary for mankind to live perfect lives; it’s our duty to adhere to his teachings in order to not digress from divine principles.”

“Another blessing which is bestowed upon us is the gift of youth, as many young people were able to reach high positions in the era of their youth.”

Ayatollah Alavi Gorgani concluded, “Prophet Muhammad (sawa) considered youth as the greatest blessing; if people truly appreciate this opportunity, Allah (swt) will pave the way for them to reach the highest degrees of spiritual perfection and felicity in life.”
