By: Sheikh Muhammad Khurasani

HOLY CITY OF QOM, Iran: Head of Scholars of Ivory Coast Mr. Edris accompanied by a delegation held talks with Ayatullah Makarem Shirazi in the holy city of Qom that houses the holy shrine of Sayyedah Masoumah (p).

“Islam is a great power in the world, and the unbelievers want to cause disunion and disagreement among Moslems, and deplete the heart of Moslems from their belief and confidence,” Mr. Edris emphasized. “They also want to keep them poor and prevent their development.”

Ayatullah Shirazi said: “Thanks to God, at this time and conditions, there is a sort of alertness among Moslems for Islamic beliefs and morality, and this is the cause of fear of the enemies. In Palestine, the united population of Moslems has caused a great problem for the enemies.”

In view of nearness of Hajj season, the Ayatullah said: “Hajj is the magnificent congress of Islamic world, and Moslems shall benefit this mighty power perfectly.”

Mr. Edris thanked Ayatullah Shirazi for the present of 20 volumes of Tafsirol Amsal to him during his previous trip to the holy city of Qom saying, “I always use this commentary book in the sermons of Friday prayer and important lectures.”
