Referring to the occasion of the 22nd of Bahman, 11 February, the 43rd anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, the most influential Iranian Sunni leader called this revolution as the result of a popular uprising and stressed the need to spread justice and to satisfy the people in order to maintain the system.
Shaikh Abdol-Hamid was talking to the people of Zahedan, Iran, capital of Sistan-Balochistan in the biggest Friday ceremony of this city on February 11, 2022.
He said: \u201cThe people did not make the revolution by coup and military attack, but through rising and standing against tyranny, injustice, and cutely. Therefore, what keeps the country stable is making the people satisfy. Serving the people, satisfying them, and spreading justice strengthen the foundations of the system.\u201d
The Friday prayer leader of Sunnis in Zahedan continued his speech by saying: \u201cThe use of force and strengthening of the armed forces cannot sustain the county. Rather, satisfying the people and answering their demands will stabilize the system. This does not mean that we should ignore strengthening the weapons needed for the national defense; it is a due right of every country.\u201d
\u201cLeaders and decision-makers should think about the people\u2019s demands and investigate whether people are satisfied with them or not? Officials must find a way to bring people to the scene under one umbrella. The different ethnicities, sects and tendencies in Iran must achieve their due rights; no one’s right should be violated in the country,\u201d said the president of Darululoom Zahedan.
\u201cThe Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was the mercy of Allah for all the worlds. He was always careful not to oppress any non-Muslim living in the Muslim territory. In the last moments of his life, the Prophet commanded the guided caliphs that non-Muslims should not be oppressed, harassed and attacked by Muslims,\u201d the eminent Sunni scholar of Iran addressed the Iranian officials during his Friday speech of Zahedan.
Shaikh Abdol-Hamid further insisted on imitating the method of the Households of the Prophet PBUH in running the state affairs, saying: \u201cThe Caliph Ali, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was very strict in respecting the rights of non-Muslims. Once someone stole a Jewish woman’s property, Sayyidana Ali was so upset that he wished for death.\u201d
\u201cJustice, fairness and serving the people was the characteristic of the Households of the Prophet peace be upon them. I\u2019d like to recommend the officials to use such capacities in running the affairs of the country\u201d, said Imam of the Grand Makki Mosque of Zahedan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>Referring to an \u2018honor murder case\u2019 in Ahwaz which shocked the society, the most outstanding Iranian Sunni leader said: \u201cThe news of the murder of a woman in Ahwaz related to honor issues was reflected in the world media. Analysts say hundreds of similar killings occur in Iran each year.\u201d
The Friday Khateeb of Sunnis in Zahedan urged on enacting the penal code for honor crimes and said: \u201cThe main reason for honor crimes is that there are no specific laws in the country that set such crimes. Many people contact us and complain about couple\u2019s infidelity, we cannot solve their problems because the state is required to criminalize such cases.\u201d
\u201cIf there are reasonable laws in this regard, people will not commit murder and will hand over the criminals to the judicial authorities; when criminals are punished, people’s pain decreases\u201d, said the Iranian Sunnis\u2019 leader.
\u201cI request, and the request of the public is that the judiciary officials should take a specific position in cases of honor crimes and enact a penal code\u201d, he concluded his points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
