Statement on the Passing of the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran and His Accompanying Delegation Due to the Tragic Accident 20/5/2024 |
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most
Merciful ("Those who, when disaster
strikes them, say, Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return". To our dear people in the Islamic Republic of Iran,
both leadership and citizens, We have followed with great concern the tragic events
of last night involving the crash of the plane carrying the Iranian President,
Mr. Raisi, and his accompanying delegation, which led to their passing and
their return to their Creator in this painful incident. In this moment, we can only offer our deep condolences
and sympathy to the revered status of the Awaited Imam (may Allah hasten his
reappearance), to the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran, to the
Iranian people, and especially to the bereaved families of the respected Hujjat
al-Islam and Muslims, Mr. Ebrahim Raisi, who devoted his life to the pursuit of
knowledge, serving Imam Reza (peace be upon him), and wisely leading the
Iranian people. We pray to Allah to
accept their deeds and what they endured as intercession for them on the day
they meet Him, being pleased with them. We also pray to Allah to bestow patience and strength
upon the Iranian people, so they may emerge stronger from this test and trial
granted by Allah, and to continue their path under their leadership by His will.
Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we shall return. There is no power nor strength except with Allah, the Highest, the Greatest. |
