The first cell of divine society is Ahlalbayt: Ayatollah Araki

“The first cell of divine society is Ahlalbayt, said General Secretory of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought, Ayatollah Mohsen Araki, stating those who wanted to join this society had to take the cognizance of the issue of enjoining good and forbidding evil, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA)

Ayatollah Araki beckoned to the concept of Ahlalbayt stressing the construct refered to a divine and moral core whose very first cell had been made by the divine Islam Prophet (PBUH) and evolved by the elapse of time.

General Secretory of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought pointed to programs and activities set by the world Forum and underscored, “the organization cannot advance its set objective only through theoretical ideas and holding dialogue.”

According to the seasoned cleric, a very systematic organization is required for fulfilling the determined aims and objectives.

Elsewhere in his remark, Ayatollah Araki beckoned to the diplomacy of unity and underscored that Supreme Leader in his decree to appoint Ayatollah Araki as the General Secretory of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought had put stress on the very fact that the area of rapprochement had been entered to a new phase.

“The new phase of rapprochement can provide the ground for forming a United Islamic Ummah,” Ayatollah Araki quoted Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei as saying.

General Secretory of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought earlier in his remarks stressed, “diplomacy of Unity which aims at founding Islamic United Ummah are of those programs forwarded and followed by the World Forum.”

To Ayatollah Araki, this very aim can be fulfilled through practical projects and the sole theoretical line of activities can not suffice for the area.

Ayatollah Araki believes in the area of diplomacy of Unity, activists have faced some new challenges and they should be well active in the area of ۱) fighting with sedative measures and attempts; and ۲) in the arena of promoting rapprochement among Muslims from different Islamic denominations and sects which the measures in turn can lead to seclusion of Takfir.
