In a speech for the staff of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, while congratulating on the occasion of the Dah-e Keramat (ten days of the dignity), and the anniversary of the birth of Imam Reza (a.s.), Ayatollah Reza Ramazani, Secretary-General of the Assembly said, “Imam Reza (a.s.) has three scientific, spiritual and political authorities.”
Referring to a hadith from Imam Ali (a.s.) in Nahj al-Balaghah, which said, “Our words (we, AhlulBayt) are not understood, except by a divine prophet or an angel, or a believer whose heart has been tested by God Almighty and he has passed this test successfully,” the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly said, “It is very difficult to know and access the position of the Imam. It is impossible for everyone to fully understand this position.”
“The role of Imams (a.s.) is general management in religious and worldly affairs. Imams are the deputies of the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h), and the formation of government and management of society is one of their roles. Undoubtedly, religion has a policy in which morality has a special place,” said Ayatollah Ramazani.
“Imams (a.s.) are the guide, enlightener, and measurer of thought. Opening new horizons for the human intellect, enlightenment for an accurate understanding of the knowledge of religion, and the provision of a scale for measuring thought and reason, are the blessings of the Imams. In practice, too, Imams are the measure. In the ziyara-text for Imam Ali (a.s.), we read, “Peace be upon you, O scale of deeds”,” stated the representative of the people of Gilan in the Assembly of Leadership Experts.
Referring to the 13th presidential election, Ayatollah Ramazani considered the election results as good and said, “A series of problems and mismanagement led some people to ignore the ballot box. Those who did not participate in the elections should not be considered anti-regime.”
“Some boycotted the elections, which was a mistake, contrary to the opinion of Imam Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran and the martyrs,” he added.
“On the other hand, Saudi Arabia, a country that does not know what election is at all, and where tyranny reigns, took provocative measures to prevent the Iranian people from participating in the elections. They campaigned to undermine the election in Iran, yet the people turned out,” said the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.
“There must be a movement for work and effort in the country. If this movement occurs, the people will participate in the elections. A strong Iran is desirable for the whole nation,” said Ayatollah Ramazani.
“He must be concerned about everyone, and solve the problems of the society by forming a strong cabinet so that wide-ranging changes be created in the service sector,” said the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, considering the President-elect as the President of the whole people of the Islamic Iran.
“Changes in attitudes, manpower training, services, hardware, and software must occur in the Assembly. The future of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly will be good, and we will achieve the desired results with understanding and interaction, synergy, and a developmental view, which is emphasized by the Supreme Leader of the Revolution,” stated Ayatollah Ramazani, referring to the activities of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly in various sectors.
