Marje’ Sistani urges pro-religious vote

By: Ismail Zabeeh

HOLY NAJAF, Iraq: Al-Marje’ Al-Alaa Grand Ayatullah Sayyed Ali As-Sistani has told believers to vote in 15 December elections, urging them to support religious candidates.

The instructions from Ayatullah As-Sistani fall short of a religious edict, but still carry tremendous weight.

A representative in his office on Saturday said he instructed followers to do three things: turn out to vote on the day; avoid voting for any list whose leader is not religious; and avoid voting for "weak" lists.       


 
  "Knowledge is better than wealth because it protects you while you have to guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE ..
