Hawzah News Agency (Beirut, Lebanon) – Sheikh Akram Barakat, the cultural deputy of Hezbollah in Lebanon, sent a message on the occasion of the first conference of the Liwa Fatemiyoun in Mashhad.

The message, while honoring the memory of General Qasem Soleimani, stated: “When I look at your faces, O Mujahideen of the Liwa Fatemiyoun in Afghanistan, you remind me of that great martyr, and we think of Mahdism and the companions of Hazrat Mahdi (AS). The practical lesson we have learned from Hajj Qasem is that Hazrat Mahdi (as) is a person not limited to geography, that has a universal vision.”

He added: “The Mujahideen and the companions of Hazrat Mahdi (AS) are pious in all areas of the Velâyat and are not limited to the geography of Iraq or Bahrain. Mahdi's helpers in the Liwa Fatemiyoun that marched through the middle of Mazar-e-Sharif, in their hearts, they lovingly instituted the sanctities of the Prophet (PBUH) and the Ahl al-Bayt (AS). They are present in all areas of the Velâyat. They came to stand against the rejected enemy.”

The message continuous: “for this reason, we are all indebted to the Mujahideen and the martyrs and veterans of the Liwa Fatemiyoun. Those who showed honor, victory, courage, sacrifice, and patience on their foreheads. They are men who (faithfully) fought from the farthest reaches of the city; Until the promised Mahdi appears.
