Islamic Revolution Inspired South African Freedom Struggle: Cleric

JOHANNESBURG – The deputy chairman of South Africa's Council of Muslim Theologians says Iran's Islamic Revolution inspired liberation movements in his country by demonstrating that popular will can stand against major powers, expressing confidence that the unity of nations will ultimately defeat oppression and arrogance.

Hawzah News Agency- "The people of South Africa, particularly after Iran's Islamic Revolution in 1979, learned a great deal from this revolution," said Zafar Najjar, deputy chairman of the Council of Muslim Theologians of South Africa.

"The Islamic Revolution showed us that social forces and the will of the people can stand against great powers and even challenge forces that appear invincible," he added.

Najjar emphasized that the experience of the Islamic Revolution proved to the world's nations that no matter how formidable the opposing powers may be, a united people and society can resist them.

He further expressed confidence in the eventual victory of the resistance front against tyranny and global arrogance.

"With God's help and through Muslim unity, the front of oppression and arrogance will be defeated. Muslim nations and freedom-loving peoples of the world, relying on faith and unity, will shape a different future," Najjar said.
