Esra News Agency: Syed Muhammad Shawala Haydara, the Shiite leader and a senior member of the Islamic High Council of Mali, visited the residence of Ayatollah Javadi Amoli and met and conversed with him.
In this meeting, Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, while wishing success for him and the Muslims of his region, stated: Islam is manifested in the Quran and the Ahl Al-Bayt (the Prophet's Household), and one cannot reach the truth of the Quran without the infallible Ahl Al-Bayt.
He stated: The core elements of the Holy Quran are three things, and the Ahl al-Bayt, peace be upon them, have explained these very three things: first, about the Muslims themselves; second, about the monotheists of the world (including Muslims, Jews, and Christians); and third, the international and global aspect of the Holy Quran, which the Quran has separate programs for every one of these three sections. The Holy Quran is a Universal Book, and its lofty expressions are
﴿هُدیً لِلنّاسِ﴾، ﴿نَذِیراً لِلْبَشَرِ﴾، ﴿كَافَّةً لِلنَّاسِ﴾، ﴿لِلعالَمینَ نَذیرًا﴾؛
"Guidance for mankind", "a warner for humanity", "to all mankind", "a warner for the worlds"; therefore, when the Imam of the Time (the Awaited Savior Mahdi, may God hasten his relief and advent) appears and reforms the world, he does it by the universal programs, and it is the Holy Quran which has explained the universal/global program.
Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli further explained: If the Quran is not the legacy of the Prophets, the past ignorance will return. What the Zionists are doing in Gaza now, these child killings and this genocide in Gaza, is in fact, the past ignorance that has spread.
He stated: The fact that we place the Quran on our heads on the blessed nights of Qadr (the Night of Power, the Equilibrium Night in the holy month of Ramadhan) means that the guidance of the Holy Quran is the crown of all humans, because the Quran calls everyone to justice and peace.
His eminence explained: There is a brotherhood among the Shiites, and on the day of Eid al-Ghadir, some of them also recite the pledge of brotherhood and become brothers to one another. There is a middle brotherhood that is established between Muslims and the People of the Sacred Scriptures, and there is a global brotherhood in which every human being is a brother to another human being. Therefore, the Divine Essence in the creation of Adam and Eve says that the human race has emerged from a single man and woman, so the difference in human skin and nationalities is for the purpose of recognition and is not a criterion of virtue. The criterion of human virtue is sound knowledge and good deeds.
He stated: In the current situation of the world, the only school that can govern the 8 billion populated world is the school of the Quran and the Ahl al-Bayt, peace be upon them.
At the end, Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli sent greetings to all Muslims and Shiites in that region and prayed for their happiness in this world and the Hereafter.
Syed Muhammad Shawala Haydara, the Shiite leader and a senior member of the Islamic High Council of Mali, at the beginning of this meeting, expressed his joy at being in the Islamic Republic of Iran and meeting Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, and stated: Due to the blessings of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, the people of our region have become acquainted with Shiism and the Ahl al-Bayt, and if Shiism has grown in that region, it is all due to the blessing of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, for which we are grateful to God.
