Ayatollah Reyshahri: Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS), Best Way to Counter Soft War

A senior Iranian cleric underlined that the best way to counter the enemy’s soft war against the Islamic Republic is taking recourse to the Holy Quran and Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS).

Ayatollah Mohammad Mohammadi Reyshahri referred to a recent speech by the Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei about the soft war launched by the enemies, saying that taking recourse to the Quran and Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS) in the country’s politics, economy, and culture should be materialized, IRNA reported.

He further said Quranic activities, such as memorization and recitation of the Quran are preliminary steps on this path.

In a Monday meeting with senior IRIB officials in Tehran, Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei raised the alarm at the effects of an extensive soft war the enemies have waged against Iran, saying one of the main objectives is to change the religious and political beliefs of people, particularly the youth.

The Supreme Leader described the enemy’s main objective in the soft war against Iran as a “metamorphosis of the Islamic Republic of Iran” by changing its nature and maintaining its facade.

Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei also cautioned against the plots that aim to influence the people’s “religious, political and cultural beliefs” in the soft war, referring to the Iranian younger generation and intelligentsia as the main targets in the onslaught.
