Iranian President Calls for Islamic Unity at Tehran Conference

President Masoud Pezeshkian addressed the 40th International Islamic Unity Conference held at Tehran's Summit Hall on Thursday, emphasizing the importance of unity and solidarity among Muslims worldwide. He highlighted the special emphasis placed by the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution on establishing amity and cohesion among Muslims, and called for unity despite differences.

Pezeshkian condemned the US-Israeli aggression waged against Iran, stating that Iran stood strong against such aggression with utmost power and strength. He underscored that no Muslim country should pursue its security in the insecurity of its neighbors, and no Muslim country's territory should be used against another Muslim nation.

The conference, themed "Islamic Unity in the Thought of the Martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei," will run through August 30 in Tehran, as well as the holy cities of Qom and Mashhad. Specialized sessions are also scheduled in the provinces of West Azarbaijan, Kordestan, Golestan, and Razavi Khorasan. A series of webinars began earlier this week.

The conference aims to promote Islamic unity, peace, security, and the strength of the Muslim community based on the teachings of the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei. It also addresses issues including Islamic identity, governance, economic cooperation, contemporary developments, and the Palestinian and Lebanese causes.

According to Mehr News, the event brings together scholars and leaders from across the Muslim world to discuss ways to foster unity and address common challenges.
