Top Iranian politician offends Omar bin al-Khattab

An Iranian top politician, Mohsen Rezaee, has offended the second caliph, Omar bin al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, in some posts on his Facebook account.

 

The remarks of Rezaee, the ex-chief of the Revolutionary Guards, exacerbated the anger of the Iranian Sunni community. Sunni activists and scholars denounced the GS of Expediency Discernment Council.

Kaak Hassan Amini, a prominent Islamic Kurd scholar, asked the former military leader to apologize over his sacrilege. He said, “Mr. Rezaee wants to take revenge of his defeat in the last presidential election from Sunnis.”

The activists mentioned Omar bin al-Khattab one of the most just rulers in the human history that both Shia and Sunni authors accept it.

In response to the massive protests of the Sunni activists, Mohsen Rezaee defended his stance claiming that he has the right of ‘criticizing’ Sunni saints.
