ABWA Official Website – On Tuesday, November 5, 2024, the ceremony commemorating the 40th day of Sayed Hassan Nasrallah’s martyrdom, and the commemoration of the martyred leaders of the Resistance Front, entitled “Nasrallah’s Beginning,” was held by the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly in the Holy Shrine of Imam Khomeini (r.a.), in cooperation with some international organizations and seminary institutions, participating enthusiastic young people, university students, clerics, and international cultural activists residing in Iran.
In this ceremony, referring to the battle with the Zionist enemy, Sheikh Ghazi Hunainah Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Lebanese Muslim Scholars Association, said, “The way to freedom of Quds, by the grace of God, has been opened, and God willing, and by God’s permission, will not be closed until the divine promise is fulfilled. The important question that is being raised today, and all the news agencies and satellite channels are asking, is how the Palestinian and Lebanese nations, which have the smallest populations among the Arab countries, are standing in direct confrontation with the Zionist enemy from a very close distance; an enemy that is equipped with American weapons and Western technologies and has the whole West’s support.”
“Let’s remember the Battle of the Trench, when all disbelief stood against all faith, and Imam Ali (a.s.) stood against all disbelief. Today, we are in one line, in the form of one ummah, with same God, the Prophet, religion, Qibla, and a goal, which is the freedom of all of Palestine, from the sea to the river, and we are not willing to make peace and normalize relations with the Zionist regime, and accept the existence of this regime in any way,” he continued.
“The resistance of the Lebanese and Palestinian people comes from the Imam Khomeini’s (r.a.) thought that the Zionist regime, this cancerous tumor, must be annihilated and eliminated from the land of Palestine. The Lebanese Hezbollah moved in this direction and the martyr Sayed Hassan Nasrallah spent half of his life to realize this goal. On this path, great people like Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, Sayed Abbas Mousavi, Sheikh Ragheb Harb, Imad Mughniyeh, Fuad Shukr and Sheikh Nabil Qaouk, were martyred from Hezbollah,” added the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Lebanese Muslim Scholars Association.
Referring to the manifestation of Imam Khomeini’s thought in Palestine, Sheikh Ghazi Hunainah said, “The late Imam’s (r.a.) thought was manifested in the land of Palestine with the thought of the authentic Sunnah, which is derived from the Holy Quran and the Holy Prophet’s mission. Martyr Sayed Hassan Nasrallah created unity between Shiites and Sunnis in the battle against the Zionist enemy. This martyr trained us for stability, patience, determination, honesty and martyrdom.”
“Today, the two wings of Islam, i.e. Shia and Sunni, are standing side by side, which is referred to as the unity of the fields, against the enemy. These fields are from Iraq, Syria, Yemen to Lebanon, Palestine and the Islamic Republic of Iran. We, in Lebanese Muslim Scholars Association, declare our allegiance to God, the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h), and Ayatollah Khamenei for the unity of the Islamic Ummah, helping the Palestinian nation, and fighting to the last breath for either victory or martyrdom,” he said in the end of his speech.
