Hawzah News Agency- Marking the International Day of Solidarity with the People of Palestine, Hojatoleslam Naqvi called for tangible backing from the Muslim world to the beleaguered Palestinians. He recalled that since 1977, the United Nations General Assembly's resolution has designated November 29 as this annual observance to affirm the Palestinian right to self-determination and sovereignty—yet, he decried, global powers have proven woefully inept and impotent in redressing the crisis.
Zionist Oppression Backed by Global Arrogance
In his forthright address, Hojatoleslam Naqvi spotlighted the relentless Zionist subjugation, propped up by hegemonic forces. "For 78 years, the Palestinian people have endured the yoke of Zionist coercion and expulsion, with global arrogance methodically displacing them from their ancestral lands while fortifying the illegitimate Zionist entity," he charged.
The esteemed scholar highlighted the escalating horrors in Gaza and across the Middle East, where "humanity suffers immensely" amid unceasing assaults on Palestinian children, women, elders, and youth. "Israel has shattered every limit in its savagery," he affirmed, underscoring the moral imperative for immediate intervention.
Urgent Call for Islamic Unity in Deeds, Not Just Words
Hojatoleslam Naqvi implored Islamic states to transcend rhetoric and forge genuine solidarity against Zionist and arrogant aggression. "It is high time for Muslim countries to coalesce not merely in declaration but in decisive action—confronting this oppression head-on and implementing robust measures to halt the atrocities inflicted upon the Palestinian nation," he urged.
Shia Community's Unwavering Stance
Concluding on a resolute note, the cleric reaffirmed his and the Shia community's enduring solidarity with the Palestinian cause. "From the very outset, we have stood resolutely with the Palestinian people. While vehemently denouncing the Zionist regime's hubris and tyranny, we insist that sustainable peace in the region remains elusive until the Palestinian question is resolved in full accordance with the aspirations and just demands of its rightful inhabitants."
The address, delivered amid global commemorations, echoes the deepening resolve within Pakistan's Shia scholarly circles to champion Palestinian liberation, amplifying calls for a principled, collective Islamic response to the ongoing Nakba.
