“Dear students, you are studying at a university that is adorned with the holy name of AhlulBayt (a.s.). This multiplies our duty. The Infallible and Immaculate AhlulBayt (a.s.) had characteristics that we, as their followers, should consider,” he said.
“The person who grows up in this school is a person of piety. In this school, we should develop our servitude to God. So that when others see our behavior and actions, they will understand that we are Jafari Shiite. This is the honor of all of us,” added the Deputy for the Cultural and Student Affairs of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) International University.
“After the subject of the elevation of the spiritual aspect, the most important pillar in the AhlulBayt (a.s.) school is ethics, which must be observed by Muslims. You, dear students, must respect each other’s rights in the dormitory, classroom, and in public space. In our religion, there is a lot of emphasis on the issue of respecting the rights of others,” Mutallebi continued.
“As a part of the university, we also help you to get to know the AhlulBayt (a.s.) school and the culture and civilization of Islamic Iran through holding courses and visiting different centers, as well as holding various camps,” he stated in the end.
