Hawzah News Agency- Speaking at the second international conference "The Uprising of the Ummah of Muhammad (PBUH)" held Wednesday by the Global Qademoun Assembly, Mohammadpour said the Ummah of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) shares a single mission, a single program, and a single goal: the worship of the One God and movement toward the realization of a united Islamic Ummah.
Unity Is a Religious Obligation, Not Just a Social Recommendation
Citing the Quranic verse "Indeed, this is your Ummah—one Ummah—and I am your Lord, so worship Me" (21:92), Mohammadpour stated that Muslim unity and solidarity are not merely social recommendations but a duty and religious obligation from the perspective of the Quran and Sunnah. He stressed that every Muslim—according to their ability and position, from scholars, preachers, and writers to artists and all other segments of society—must work to strengthen Islamic unity and form a united Ummah, without faltering in this path.
The Prophet's Model: Beyond Borders, Tribes, and Languages
Referring to the experience of early Islam, the lecturer noted that during the era of the Prophet (PBUH), geographical, ethnic, and linguistic boundaries did not prevent the formation of a united Islamic society. He cited figures such as Salman al-Farsi, Suhayb al-Rumi, Bilal al-Habashi, and Jaban al-Kurdi as examples of different ethnicities and nations standing side by side in the Islamic community of that era. He said that departing from this model and fueling ethnic, racial, linguistic, and border divisions has weakened the Islamic world.
Divisions Have Cost the Ummah Dearly
Mohammadpour attributed part of the current problems facing the Islamic world to the lack of unity. Referring to the Palestinian issue, the US military presence in the region, and the Zionist regime's crimes in Gaza, he said that if Muslims enjoyed greater unity and solidarity, the current situation of the Islamic world would be different. He also cited the plundering of Islamic countries' resources, the destruction of mosques, Quran burnings, and the desecration of Muslims as consequences linked to the weakness of Islamic solidarity.
'How Can Two Billion Muslims Remain Voiceless?'
Raising the question of how nearly two billion Muslims cannot play a proportionate role in global political, military, cultural, and economic equations, Mohammadpour stressed that returning to Islamic brotherhood and a sense of shared responsibility is an essential necessity for the Islamic world. Citing Quranic warnings about the consequences of division, he said that the dignity and power of Muslims depend on setting aside differences and rebuilding the unity of the Ummah.
A Call to Scholars, Thinkers, and Artists
In closing, Mamousta Abdolrahman Mohammadpour called on scholars, thinkers, intellectuals, artists, preachers, writers, and all Muslims to join hands in reviving the "Risen and United Islamic Ummah" so that Muslims can present the global message of Islam to humanity. He affirmed that achieving this goal is possible and requires the will, unity, brotherhood, and shared sense of responsibility of all Muslims.
