Commemoration Ceremony of Mina Victims was Held in the Razavi Holy shrine

On behalf of Ayatollah Waiz Tabasi, the grand Custodian of Astan Quds Razavi and the respected Representative of Wali Faqih in Khurasan, the commemoration ceremony of Mina decedents was held in the Razavi Holy shrine.

The ceremony was held in the grand Imam Khomeini (R.A.) portico with presence of Ayatollah Alam ul-Huda, Mashhad Friday Prayer Leader, Alireza Rashidian, Khurasan Razavi governor, Mr. Azizian, Deputy Custodian of Astan Quds Razavi, a number of province and city managers, scholars of seminary, victims’ families, and pilgrims and citizens.

After recitation of Qur’an by Master Jawad Panahian and Hujjat al-Islam Shuja and panegyrizing by Sayed Ja’far Mahrukhsar and Ahmad Waizi, Hujjat al-Islam Sayedabadi delivered a lecture.

“The incident that occurred this year in Mina was very painful and heart-rending that happened out of negligence, irresponsibility, and inefficiency of Saudi rulers”, the professor of seminary remarked.

“As the Supreme Leader of the revolution said, all the aspects of the incident should be thoroughly examined, though it will not reduce the burden of the pain in the heart of the Islamic nation of Iran and the survivors of the incident”, he pointed out.

Referring to some verses of Touba surah, he reiterated, “God almighty asserts clearly that custodianship of the two holy shrines (Mecca and Prophet’s holy shrine) would not be a cause of pride and honor for you; it is never comparable with Jihad and migration for God sake and fighting against the despots and pagans.”

“From Islamic viewpoint, resistance against despotism and blasphemy is a value and not only Saudi rulers and agents lack such a virtue, but they are conspirator with despots and bullies of the world working for their interests”, he continued.
