Supreme Leader asks eulogists to avoid highlighting differences among Muslims

TEHRAN,Apr.21(MNA) -- Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei asked eulogists and religious poets to avoid highlighting the differences among Muslims. Speaking at a meeting with a group of eulogists and religious poets on Sunday, the Leader said, “I have repeatedly said that today, religious differences among Muslims are like swords in the hands of the enemy.” The meeting was organized to commemorate the birthday of Hazrat Fatima (SA), the daughter of Prophet Muhammad (S). “If the eulogist community accomplishes their given task well, a positive development will occur nationwide. Sometimes a eulogy session achieves better results than a two-hour lecture,” the Leader stated. He went on to say that eulogists can make use of modern media like the Internet “to fight against the enemy’s efforts to destroy people’s faith,” and added, “However, holding eulogy sessions is the single best way” to struggle against their nefarious schemes. A number of eulogists made recitations about Hazrat Fatima (SA) before the Leader’s speech.
