The Society of Seminary Teachers' Statement on the occasion of International Quds Day is as follows:
In the name of God, the beneficent, the merciful
The holy month of Ramadan provides a chance to fight carnal desires (to perform Greater Jihad); the last Friday of Ramadan also provides a chance for Muslims to fight against the arrogant and oppressor front.
Quds Day, this valuable reminder of Imam Khomeini (RA), which according to the Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, plays a major role in determining the future of Palestine and its people, is observed internationally and worldwide. The international Quds Day is the scene in which supporters of the righteous and deniers of the infidel took part to neutralize Zionist's and the arrogant powers' plots against Islam, Zionists are trying hard to deprive Muslims of their honor and glory.
International Quds Day is a time to present Islamic values, to support those oppressed people who sacrificed the lives of their women, children, youth and elderlies in the fight against the usurer Zionists hoping to stop the evil regimes from occupying the first Qibla of the Muslim world.
Now that numerous efforts on the side of the arrogant front to save and protect Israel have caused unrest and upheaval in this region and the world, during the times when the puppet ISIS terrorists are targeting the 'Axis of Islamic Resistance' in order to distract the media and the people's attention from the awful crimes carried out against Palestinians as the first priority of the Muslim world, during these harsh times, the responsibility which is weighing down the faithful Muslims as well as the intellectual community has strongly increased. Standing with Palestinians and the Axis of Islamic Resistance is a manifestation of Greater Jihad, an act of resistance and refusal to follow the infidels' commands, it represents protecting al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam and its values.
To shout 'Down with Israel' and 'Down with USA' in Quds Day's demonstrations will be the main focus of our revolutionary slogans on Quds Day to let the world know that we are well- aware of Islam's adversaries' plots, we will declare to the world that we believe Al Saud, Al Khalifah, ISIS and Takfiris whose hands are stained with the blood of innocent Muslims are the illegitimate children of Zionism.
The Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom expresses solidarity with innocent Palestinians' resistance and warns: Actions which are being carried out by the regional countries including Arab Reactionary regimes in order to strengthen their ties with the Israelis is considered an act of treason to the Muslim world as well as the innocent Palestinians, it is also another step toward revealing their scandals and overthrowing those puppet regimes. Public condemnation of such high treason against the Islamic nations demonstrates Muslim's honor and religious awareness. Therefore, vast participation of faithful masses who are also fasting in Quds Day's demonstrations goes to support Palestinian Muslims.
Participation of people in demonstrations to mark International Quds Day completes Muslims' worships during the month of Ramadan and will be answered by God's blessings. We pray to God that Islamic youth with revolutionary spirits hold the flag of permanent fight against the infidel and the arrogant front. Islamic Resistance's glory and power will eventually eradicate Zionism.
