In wake of a free Palestine, Zionists desperately claim Al-Quds their "Capital"

Their [the enemy's] announcement of Quds (Jerusalem) as the capital city of [Zionists] occupied Palestine proves their weakness and inability. In regards to Palestine, they are helpless and unable to achieve their goals. Victory is for the Islamic Ummah; Palestine will be free; and the Palestinian people will be victorious.

Volunteering cures the malady of feeling superior to others: Ayatollah Khamenei

One of the dangers for those individuals who have a privilege is that they might feel they are superior to and different from others. This is a dangerous personality fault, a personality malady. You should not allow this malady to develop inside you; one way to do so is to strengthen the spirit of volunteering for the sake of God and work on yourselves.

If the Holy Prophet (s.w.a.) were among us today, he would invite us to promote unity

Why do Zionist politicians seek to sow discord among Sunnis and Shias?

What does such and such a Zionist politician in U.S.– who has done nothing except for showing malevolence against Islam and Muslims – have to do with making judgments about Sunni and Shia in the world of Islam? Why should he say something about Sunni and a completely different thing about Shia?

Understanding Ayatollah Khamenei's these 3 guidelines helps neutralize Takfiri threat

Amongst the methods used by the enemies , is to keep the Muslims bickering and infighting ; as long as the scholars are not working to prevent this infighting, fertile ground for extremism to flourish is being created. This is amongst the reasons that Imam Khamenei has said categorically, that such infighting is against Islamic principles.

Prophet Muhammad's honesty made Sayyida Khadija so fond of him: Ayatollah Khamenei

It was his honesty that made Khadijah al-Kubra (as) so fond of him. Sayyida Khadijah was herself the first lady of Mecca, a prominent figure, from a prominent family with considerable wealth.

U.S. blocked nuclear medicines to Iran, Martyr Shahriari helped Iran produce them

They wanted to do something to prevent radio-pharmaceuticals from reaching the people's hands. They wanted to create problems for the Islamic Republic. They used to say, "We will not sell these radio-pharmaceuticals". This was done with the purpose of closing our center in Tehran, but people like martyr Shahriari worked on it in a diligent way. The enemy was astonished.

3 tasks, recommended by Ayatollah Khamenei to Muslim scholars, to eradicate takfirism

Quran, Ka'ba and Love for Prophet's lineage are pivots of Muslim Unity: Ayatollah Khamenei

Through our love for Ahl-ul-bait, Muslims can unite for a common cause; this can be a pivotal step towards the unification of Muslims. As the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) serves as a pivot for unity among Muslims, as the Quran and the Ka'bah are pivots of Muslim unity, the love for Ahl-uhl-bait can also be pivotal towards uniting Muslims and connecting their hearts.

The issue of Palestine is the World of Islam’s top priority

Today, the issue of Palestine is the first issue of the world of Islam. Anyone who has a correct understanding of the issue of Palestine acknowledges that the issue of Palestine is the first issue of the world of Islam. The key to defeating the enemies of Islam is the issue of Palestine. The most important issue of the world of Islam in the present time is the issue of Palestine. Why is that? This is because Palestine is an Islamic country. They have come and occupied this country. They have taken it away from its people. The issue is not about usurping a village or city. The enemy has usurped a country and it has used it as a base for jeopardizing the security of regional countries. One should fight against a cancerous tumor. Notice that if a person issues a fatwa as a religious mufti saying that fighting against Zionism is haram, that helping such and such a group which is fighting against Zionism is not allowed, this is really a disaster to witness that some people in the world of Islam are acting against the interests of Islam and have friendly relations with the enemies. This is the exact opposite of the Quran's clear words: "Those who are with him are strong against unbelievers, but compassionate among each other" [The Holy Quran, 48: 29]. However, those people are strong against Muslims, but compassionate among unbelievers. They are on good terms with them, but notice what they are doing to Muslims.

Wherever we are needed, to confront U.S. regime and Zionism, we will help

We, explicitly, declare that the Islamic Republic of Iran will help, wherever its presence is needed, to confront disbelief and arrogance: we will not compromise with anyone when expressing this."

Maintain your preparedness in face of the enemies of Islam

You should be the deliverers of the message that one should have this spirit. You should preserve Muslims' preparedness for this confrontation and battle. Confrontation does not always mean a military war. You should familiarize the minds of your audience – the people who listen to you – with the realities that exist in the world of Islam today. We will definitely not forsake this responsibility. We will not abandon this responsibility and we are confident that Allah the Exalted will help us accomplish this task. A Quranic ayah says, "Oh you who believe, take not my enemies and yours as friends, offering them your love" [The Holy Quran, 60: 1]. However, contrary to this ayah, some people make friends with the enemies of Muslims, Islam and God and they offer them their love. They are the true enemies of Islam inside the Islamic community.
