Muslims should be vigilant, not become enemy tools: Iran cleric
Tehran Interim Friday Prayers Leader Hojjatoleslam Kazem Seddiqi says Muslims should remain vigilant about the plots hatched by the US and its allies and do not allow enemies to manipulate them.
“All Muslims should be united against the enemies and their plots as any effort to create division in the Muslim community and intensify differences is against public interests,” the senior Iranian cleric added.
Ayatollah Seddiqi further pointed out that the United States and its allies are hatching plots to hinder the progress of Muslims by forming phony groups which stand against the real Islam.
Referring to the situation in Syria, the senior cleric said some regional governments encourage fratricide, fan the flames of violence in Syria, and have become tools in the hands of the enemy to hurt Islam instead of uniting Muslims to stand against Western arrogant powers.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March 2011. Many people, including large numbers of security personnel, have been killed in the violence.
The Syrian government says the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and there are reports that a very large number of the militants fighting the Syrian government are foreign nationals.
