Shaikh-ul-Islam Mawlana Abdol-Hamid, on Thursday evening (May 14, 2026), at the 35th Graduation of Darululoom Zahedan, described “well-wishing for all humans” and the “honor of the Iranian nation and country” as his most important goals and concerns in addressing certain issues, and emphasized the need for “accepting criticism” and “paying attention to the words of the people and well-wishers.”
We Feel Solidarity with All People of Iran
Mawlana Abdol-Hamid, expressing his views at this magnificent ceremony, said: In the path we have chosen in the light of the Qur’an and Sunnah, there is nothing but well-wishing. We are well-wishers for all humans, especially the oppressed, and we think about the welfare and prosperity of the people and the country of Iran.
He added: We feel solidarity with all the people of Iran and desire the honor of the country and the nation of Iran. We do not wish for anyone’s death, but rather we pray for the guidance and reformation of everyone, and if we say anything, it is for this purpose and we have no other motive.
We Speak of “Negotiation” to Prevent Further Destruction of the Country’s Infrastructure
The prominent Iranian religious scholar continued: I make no claim, but I am sure that if what has been said until now had been acted upon, it would have been better for everyone and we would not be seeing these problems in the country today. We should all be accepting of criticism and listen to each other and to our people, and act upon the Quranic verse: “Those who listen to the word and follow the best of it.”
“We are concerned about the country and national assets, and if we ever speak of “negotiation,” it is so that loss of life and further destruction of the country’s infrastructure can be prevented,” he reminded.
The Friday Imam of Zahedan, at the end of this part of his speech, emphasized “preserving brotherhood and peace”, and said: We think about brotherhood and the preservation of peace in the region; past experiences have proven this.
All Changes in the World are From Allah / Prophets Called Humans to the Obedience of Allah
Shaikh-ul-Islam Mawlana Abdol-Hamid, in the first part of his speech at the 35th graduation ceremony of the students of Darululoom Zahedan, stated: Allah Almighty, who created the universe with Himself as the center, is the axis of the entire universe. All are His creation and servants, and the world moves by His will. All beings are in need of Allah. Honor and humiliation, death and life, and all the changes in the world are in the hands of Allah and from Him.
He further added: All prophets were sent to invite people to the worship and obedience of Allah so that everyone would put their trust and reliance on Allah and be connected to Allah Almighty, because only the entity of Allah Almighty is eternal and lasting.
“Prayer” is at the Top of All Religious Commands / Today, the Islamic Society is Neglecting to Practice the Pillars of Religion
The Friday Khateeb of Zahedan went on to say more about ‘’Namaz”, and said: Prayer is at the top of all commands. Prayer means connecting with Allah and engaging in private conversation and supplication with Him. All prophets prayed and enjoined and emphasized prayer. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) emphasized prayer and said: Prayer is the most important matter of your religion; whoever establishes prayer takes care of the rest of the matters of religion, and whoever wastes prayer wastes the rest of the matters.
He added: Unfortunately, today the Islamic society is neglecting to establish prayer, pay Zakat, and practice other pillars of Islam and the Sunnahs of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), even though these pillars and Sunnahs are the most important ways to reach Allah. The greatest worshiper is the one who leaves sin and moves toward the obedience and servitude of Allah; this migration is a “spiritual migration.”
The Religion of Islam Spread in the World through “Good Character”
Mawlana Abdol-Hamid further reminded: Good character is among the most important commands of Islam. The religion of Islam spread in the world through good character and good deeds.
He continued: Today, humans do not respect each other’s rights. The rights of parents, relatives, and neighbors are not being cared for; kinship and maintaining family ties have weakened in society. Many people do not care for the rights of women and orphans, and they are not given their inheritance; whereas all humans have equal rights and their dignity and rights must be upheld.
Sincerity is one of the Important Pillars of Islam / All Our Words and Actions Must be For the Pleasure of Allah
The President of Darululoom Zahedan pointed to the importance of sincerity in deeds, and said: Another important and major pillar of religion is that all our good deeds are performed for the pleasure of Allah Almighty, and material and worldly interests are not the goal. It is very important and essential that every action, every word, and every step is for the pleasure of Allah.
He continued: All the works of the prophets, scholars, and the righteous were for Allah. It is the result of the sincerity of the founder of Darululoom Zahedan, the hard work of the scholars, teachers, and sincere colleagues, and the support of the people that today Darululoom Zahedan is shining.
The Companions and Ahl al-Bayt Are Our Role Models
The most prominent Iranian Sunni scholar further added: Sahabah are the direct disciples of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) who were trained in the best and most beautiful manner. The hearts of Sahabah were filled with the fear of Allah, and Allah Almighty had adorned faith in their hearts.
He added: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) trained Sahabah very well for the service of humanity and the propagation of religion. The Companions and the Ahl al-Bayt are role models for us. We respect all Ahl al-Bayt and love them.
We Need Modern Sciences and the Knowledge of Shari’ah to Build Society / No Success is Achieved without Knowledge
Mawlana Abdol-Hamid concluded his speech by emphasizing the need to acquire both religious and contemporary sciences, and said: Modern sciences and Shari’ah knowledge are very important and necessary. We need worldly knowledge to build the world, and we need Shari’ah knowledge to reform the world and the Hereafter. The most important thing that can lead brothers and sisters to success is knowledge. No success can be achieved without knowledge. We must encourage our children to acquire knowledge.
