Sayyed al-Sadr: The Palestinian Revolution Shall Remain Etched in the Hearts of the Faithful
Holy Najaf – INA
The leader of the National Shiite Movement, Sayyed Muqtada al-Sadr, affirmed on Friday that the Palestinian revolution will forever remain alive in the hearts of the believers.
In the central Friday sermon delivered across Iraq, Sayyed al-Sadr declared:
"The Palestinian revolution shall remain eternal in the hearts of the faithful, of Muslims, and indeed in the heart of every lover of humanity."
Below is the full text of the sermon, as received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA):
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
The Palestinian revolution shall remain immortal in the hearts of the believers and Muslims—nay, in the heart of every soul who cherishes the essence of humanity. For what the terrorist Zionist enemy perpetrates—bolstered by the Great Evil, America—has shattered every divine, rational, and human law. It has surpassed even the atrocities of history's most ruthless tyrants, both near and far.
The current global forces of evil have exceeded the deeds of the ancient Pharaohs in their enslavement, humiliation, and desecration of human dignity. They have robbed even children, women, civilians, and humanitarian workers of their right to life. They have defied the very foundations of human rights in a manner that gives precise meaning to the word perversion.
The Zionist-American war machine continues to annihilate all that stands in its path—hospitals, mosques, churches—without remorse. And worse yet, they hasten to justify these crimes under the pretext of combating terrorism. Yet, they are the very embodiment of terrorism. But they are ignorant people.
Despite all this, they present themselves as champions of democracy, freedom, and a so-called 'Abrahamic religion.' Yet, Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) is free from their claims. As the Almighty said:
"Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a monotheist, a Muslim, and he was not among the polytheists."
Truly, the words of Allah stand affirmed:
"You will surely find the most hostile of people to the believers to be the Jews and the polytheists. And you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers to be those who say, 'We are Christians.' That is because among them are priests and monks, and because they are not arrogant."
This enmity between truth and falsehood will endure as long as we draw breath.
Yet what is essential—what is most vital—is that we unite upon our truth so that they may disperse upon their falsehood. Only then shall we preserve our dignity and avert humiliation.
For this humiliation is displeasing to Allah , to His Messenger, to his purified Household, and to his righteous companions.
Otherwise, Gaza of Hashim and the whole of Palestine shall be sold once again. Its people will face exile—by force or otherwise—under the watchful eyes of Arab and Islamic governments. The curse of Gaza will follow us until the Day of Judgment.
And on that day, regret shall be of no avail.
