“SunniOnline” has received credible reports from the Iranian capital, Tehran, that the security authorities had blocked points of entrance of Sunnis’ prayer rooms.
The Sunni community of Tehran has no any mosque in Tehran; Sunni Muslims offer daily five-time and Friday prayers in rented prayer rooms. Their population inside the city is about one million.
Some trustees of Sunni prayer rooms informed Eslah Web that security officials had refused to provide them written letters about barring of Eid prayers in specified places and rooms.
According to receiving reports, Sunni trustees were warned over establishing Eid prayers last week on Wednesday; they followed up the matter via the Taqreeb Convention’s newly-appointed chairman, Ayatollah Araki. His office promised to follow the case and finally they informed Sunnis to establish prayers only in the rooms which were specified for Tarawih prayers avoiding streets. But then the security men put obstacles and vehicles in front of the Sunni worshippers’ entrance ways.
It is reported that some Sunni Muslims managed to offer Eid prayers of 2012 in their houses stealthily.
