Iran Is at the Frontline of the Fight against Terrorism/Saudi Arabia and its Wahhabi Ideology Are the Origin of Takfir and Bloodshed


We are at the frontline of the fight against terrorism and extremism in Iraq and Syria; no country cares about fighting terrorism and violent extremism as we do, yet some are blatantly accusing us of supporting terrorism!‌

In the beginning of his fiqh course in the A‘ẓam mosque in Qom, Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi emphasized the fact that the roots of Takfiri terrorists and the atrocities committed by the ISISterrorists must be sought in Saudi Arabia and the deviant teachings of Mohammad bin Abdulwahhāb. Emphasizing that there is no doubt that these terrorists and extremists are the offspring of Wahhabism which is supported and cherished by Saudi Arabia, Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi stated: “Now what is even more shameless is that Saudi Arabia has formed a coalition to fight terrorism! If they wish to fight terrorism then need to fight themselves!”


Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi also slammed the hypocritical attitude of the US and the West regarding terrorism and terrorist groups and further stated: “the Americans have defended these terrorists and have supported the ISIS terrorists to gain power; many other states are also busy buying oil from the ISIS and supplying them with weapons! Yet, what is the most astonishing issue of all is that these same states, who have supported these terrorists, are now accusing us of supporting terrorism!”


Stating that Iran is at the forefront of fighting against terrorism, Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi continued: “We are at the frontline of the fight against terrorism and extremism in Iraq and Syria and no country cares about fighting terrorism and violent extremism as we do; yet some are blatantly accusing us of supporting terrorism!”


His eminence also noted: “It is truly astonishing that those who have harbored terrorism and Takfir in their homes are now forming alliances to supposedly fight it, and they are now throwing accusations at us, who have truly, and at all times, opposed extremism and fought terrorism”.


Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi, then, continued: “the Americans and the Saudi officials need to stop lying so much to themselves and to the world, because it is a known fact to the entire world now that Saudi Arabia is the origin of Takfir and bloodshed”.


Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi further noted: “how many religious scholars who opposed the policies of the Saudi regime have been murdered by them; those Takfiri terrorists who have carried out terrorist attacks in Europe have all been educated and trained in the Saudi-supported schools and centers. Now these exporters of terrorism dare to boast about fighting terrorism and making alliances to obliterate extremism!”


His eminence also said: “the evidence of their crimes must be disclosed so as to illuminate the minds of the people of the world regarding the reality of the Saudis. If we truly want to eradicate terrorism, we must be honest in confronting it. Recently, the western media have admitted the fact that the roots of terrorism are to be found in Saudi Arabia”.


Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi also stated: “The western officials, however, have said recently that they do not believe Wahhabism to be related to the issue of the Takfiri terrorists; yet, the connection between these two issues is so obvious that it cannot be denied or concealed. We hope that they come back to their senses, think rationally, and to strive to eliminate the roots of the problem”.
