Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, Leader of the Islamic Revolution told a large group of Alims (Islamic scholars) in Shiraz central Iran Wednesday evening that the Iranian Alims bore heavy duties regarding the spiritual goals of the Islamic Republic.
Ayatollah Khamenei elaborated by saying that nations would achieve genuine security under the two factors of sovereignty and spirituality and that the Islamic Republic which represents a model of faith-inspired government must enjoy both.
"Today, the scope of influence of the Alims is no longer confined to small-scale scholarly circles rather they have hoisted the flag of spirituality at present, bringing many concerns and responsibilities for them in this regard," Ayatollah Khamenei added.
Ayatollah Khamenei noted the Alims that to meet their religious duties, they must primarily tend to their souls, adding that impious individuals would fail to guide others.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that it was also essential for Alims to acquire a good command of religious teachings and in this he commemorated the memory of great Shii philosopher Morteza Motahhari, saying that any young Iranian is expected to study his works.
The Islamic Revolution Leader urged the Alims to enhance their ability of conceptual reasoning, adding that excommunication, slander or infuriation provide no solution to counter the present-time campaigns to deviate nations through philosophical stuff rather they must be handled through religious reasoning and wisdom.
In the same regard, Ayatollah Khamenei urged the Alims to acquire state-of-the-art logic which among others requires one to develop insight into the mindset of any potential audience.
Ayatollah Khamenei also urged the Alims to acquire a precise knowledge about different domestic or foreign political affiliations, adding that an aware Alim must be able to specify what factors would mislead or guide human being.
The IR Leader said the policies exercised by the superpowers are precursor to corruption and bloodshed in the world.
"The Islamic Republic has hoisted flag against those policies, triggering the arrogance front to accost it hard," the IR Leader said.
Ayatollah Khamenei criticized those who assume due to their weakness that by distancing the principles, one could provide mindful solution to the problems, adding that it was recommendable for the nation to follow model of Islam to declare its goals bravely and march towards them sagaciously.
