TEHRAN – Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has joined the chorus of Iranian officials calling for Muslim unity in the face of ongoing Israeli atrocities.
“The differences between Muslims have allowed the Zionist regime to run rampant in our region, slaughtering women, children, the young, and the elderly,” Pezeshkian said during a meeting with Iran’s Sunni scholars and clerics.
“If we stand united, the Israeli regime cannot continue its wicked deeds,” Pezeshkian emphasized. “When Zionists murder our fellow Muslims and we remain indifferent, Islam itself is under threat.”
Pezeshkian condemned apathy towards the struggles of Muslims worldwide, stating, “Indifference towards lives lost, poverty, hunger, discrimination, and injustice is perilous.”
During the annual Islamic Unity Week, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, also met with Sunni scholars and clerics.
“Islamic unity is paramount,” Ayatollah Khamenei said. “Our adversaries seek to sow discord among us, but we must not forget the importance of the ‘Islamic Ummah.'”
Ayatollah Khamenei emphasized the essential nature of Muslim unity, urging his followers, “Do not let the concept of the ‘Islamic Ummah’ fade into the background.”
