Practical Solutions for Unity Among the Muslim Ummah

When we observe from Adam (peace be upon him) to Muhammad (peace be upon him and his progeny), we see that whenever the prophets arrived, their goal was the exaltation of humanity, the elevation of thought, and human education. If humans are educated, in that case, they can be superior to all creatures; if they are not educated, they become worse than all. Therefore, God has shown the path of education and sent the prophets, resulting in divine books, divine religions, and divine prophets. The seal of religions is Islam. The seal of books is the Holy Quran, and the seal of prophets is the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). Thus, Islam is the summary and spirit of all past religions. The Quran is also the spirit of all past divine books, and the path that God has shown us in the form of Islam is both a continuation of the path of the prophets and comprehensive of all their teachings. Therefore, we conclude that Islam is the most comprehensive religion, the Quran is the most comprehensive book of guidance, and the Muslim Ummah is the most comprehensive of communities.

The Quran says: کُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ, you are the best community, for what reason? تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ, because you enjoin good and forbid evil and believe in God. If you look at enjoining good and forbidding evil from the perspective of sociology and anthropology, if it exists in a society, that society is revived; if it does not exist, apparently the society is alive, but its body is alive while its spirit perishes. If the spirit of human society perishes, what remains? Animalistic life. If humans live in human society with an animalistic life, their method, work, and goal all become animalistic because they have lost the human spirit. Therefore, when we look at Islam from this perspective, Islam wants humans to be exalted and reach the rank and stage they are meant to reach. The paths that the Prophet of Islam and the Prophet's Household have shown are the paths that lead us to the same point that God has intended.

The Holy Quran as the Main Axis of Muslim Unity

When the Holy Quran addresses the Jews and Christians, it invites them all to union and unity. When the Quran says تَعالَوا إِلیٰ کَلِمَةٍ سَواءٍ بَینَنا وَبَینَکُم, it means inviting to that word which is common among all these divine and heavenly religions, because it keeps you around a truth like the string of a rosary. If we look among Islamic sects, this spirit must also be created among Islamic sects. When the Quran even mentions the People of the Book—when we say People of the Book, we mean Christians and Jews—and invites them to sit together on this subject and let our point of unity, our point of commonality, be the word of Monotheism.

When you descend somewhat among Islamic sects, schools, and various Islamic paths, this should be done all the more, and they should be around each other. Therefore, the path to the exaltation of Islamic societies, Islamic unity, and the unity of Muslims achieves results through acting upon the Quran. For unity, one must return to the Quran itself. If we place the Quran as the central point and point of commonality for all sects, in that case, the Quran will not allow you to become dispersed, nor will it allow you to engage in differences, nor will it allow you to have an animalistic life, because the origin of division is animalistic life, while union and unity are from celestial and heavenly life. Therefore, it is very easy; if we return to the Quran, automatically our life becomes a divine, Islamic life, and our slogan becomes the slogan of unity among humans, let alone among religions, let alone among Muslims.

Grounds for Unity Among Muslims

Currently, Muslims face very large challenges from various satanic powers. From this perspective, our focus must be on our religious commonalities. Our religious commonalities mean commonalities that all sects both believe in and accept as a sign of their faith. For example, Monotheism is common among all these sects, the divine book is common among all sects, the Seal of the Prophets (peace be upon him) is common among all these sects. The Belief in Resurrection is common among all these sects, moral values are common among all these sects, struggling against the enemies of God is common among all these sects. Even individually and socially, acts of worship and transactions are more than 90 percent common among all these sects. On one side, they have common beliefs; on the other side, they have common practical paths. When this is the case, it is very easy if we return to these commonalities and stand beside each other. It is very easy, and if we stand beside each other, we become a Muslim Ummah.

The following text outlines perspectives on challenges within the Muslim world and geopolitical relations involving Iran and Pakistan.

Existing challenges between Muslims

The main target is Islam. The West wants Islam to lack Muhammadan and Alavi identity. They want an Islam where a person performs ablution with alcohol and prays prayer. They want an Islam where one eats pork and prays alongside it, and thus normalize [this] Islamic culture. Imam Khomeini (peace be upon him) mentioned a point regarding Pure Islam and American Islam. American Islam is an Islam that is useless and an Islam that is only verbal. An Islam that plays no role in people's lives in Islamic societies. Neither in culture, nor in beliefs, nor in personal life. They want to change this culture.

When they change this culture, the spirit of jihad, desire for freedom, desire for justice, and fighting against oppression disappears. Zionist regime and Westerners, you do not see democracy anywhere in Arab countries and all Western slogans are about democracy, but there is no democracy even among their close friends. But in a place like Islamic Republic of Iran or another country that stood against their goals regarding democracy, then yes; this republicanism and democracy becomes bad. Thus, Western slogans are hollow and their goals are merely to secure their own interests.

Both Pakistan and Iran were aware of the attack on Jaish al-Adl

Head of Pakistan's Ummah Wahida: Both Pakistan and Iran were aware of the attack on Jaish al-Adl

Head of Pakistan's Ummah Wahida Mohammad Amin Shahidi said regarding Iran's attack on Jaish al-Adl: Both countries were aware of this incident where Iran targeted Jaish al-Adl centers, but due to public opinion on one hand and international pressures and American imperialism on the other, Pakistan was forced to adopt the stance that 'we did not know'.

According to Diyar Ayar citing Fararu, Amin Shahidi stated that Pakistan faces internal problems, namely economy, peace, and internal order, expressing: Due to the economy, Pakistan has entered conditions where relations with Arab and European countries are increasing, and for this reason, Pakistan's friendship with Iran appears weak.

He added: On the other hand, there is no such thing as peace in Pakistan's Balochistan province, and armed forces are constantly targeted, and civilian and military facilities are targeted. These terrorism centers are active with the cooperation of Afghanistan and other countries; some of these centers are places where terrorist activities are carried out on both sides of the border and harm people on both sides.

The head of Pakistan's Ummah Wahida clarified: The Kerman incident is also a link in the same chain where people are active here in the form of terrorists. They enjoy support from foreign forces; stopping these forces is up to Pakistan and the responsibility of Iran; the problem is that Pakistan's security institutions do not have control in all areas, which is why terrorists grow.

On the occasion of the recent trip of Hassan Kazemi Qomi, Iran's ambassador to Afghanistan, to Pakistan, in addition to terrorists' hideouts in Pakistan's Balochistan province, the issue of Afghanistan should also have been discussed.

Shahidi said regarding this: I understand that both Pakistan and Iran knew what they were going to do. Both countries were aware of this incident where Iran targeted Jaish al-Adl centers, but due to public opinion on one hand and international pressures and American imperialism on the other, Pakistan was forced to adopt the stance that 'we did not know'. Otherwise, carrying out such an operation without mutual cooperation is not possible.

Regarding relations between the two countries, he said: There are examples in the recent past where Pakistan cooperated with Iran and Iran with Pakistani forces to eliminate terrorists' hideouts in the region.

The head of Ummah Wahida said: Pakistan faces the most terrorism; Iran also targeted the same terrorists who sometimes want to harm peace in Pakistan and sometimes in Iran; therefore, if such elements are coordinated by both countries, peace in the region will be preserved, and due to economic problems, there is global pressure on Pakistan, therefore Pakistan has taken a political stance.

Muhammad Amin Shahidi is the Secretary General of the Wahdat Ummah Party in Pakistan and a member of the World Assembly of Ahlulbayt (peace be upon them). He is known for his statements regarding Islamic unity, the portrayal of Islam in the West, and his commentary on regional geopolitical issues.

Arrogant Powers Always Seek to Distort the Face of Islam

The Secretary General of the Wahdat Ummah Party of Pakistan stated: Arrogant powers and Western countries are striving to distort the face of Islam and present a violent and illogical image of Islam to the world. They also intend to reduce the influence of the Holy Quran among Muslims.

Hojjat al-Islam wal-Muslimin Muhammad Amin Shahidi, Secretary General of the Wahdat Ummah Party of Pakistan, said: Muslims have always been in urgent need of unity and solidarity throughout history, but today, given the challenges they face, this need has received more attention than ever before.

The Holy Quran says to those who are with Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his progeny): "And those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves.". Thus, it guides them to unity in the ranks of Muslims.

Amin Shahidi emphasized: Today, the Western world, considering the influence of the Quran and religious teachings on humans, especially Muslims, has concluded that if Muslims unite with each other, they will form a great power, and the interests of the West and superpowers will be endangered.

Therefore, arrogant powers and Western countries are striving to distort the face of Islam and present a violent and illogical image of Islam to the world. They also intend to reduce the influence of the Holy Quran among Muslims.

He stated: As much as technological sciences advance in the West, human and innate sciences decline proportionally. Today, Western society appears to be a human society on the surface, but in essence, it has turned into a jungle where animalistic traits are increasing more than before, to the extent that respect for humanity, ethics, and human conscience have been deprived from that society.

The member of the World Assembly of Ahlulbayt (peace be upon them) said: These incidents and technological advancements have caused a church to close every day in Western countries, because churches can no longer guarantee religious ethics and meet the needs of society.

Martyr Qasem Soleimani is a Model for the World

Sheikh Muhammad Amin Shahidi, President of the Wahdat Ummah Pakistan, in a webinar held on the occasion of the martyrdom anniversary of Martyr Qasem Soleimani titled The School of Martyr Qasem Soleimani and its features and effects, organized by Al-Aref Academy Pakistan in cooperation with the committee holding the martyrdom anniversary ceremony of Martyr Qasem Soleimani of the Islamic Republic of Iran, stated: Martyr Qasem Soleimani is not only a model for Muslims but a model for all humanity.

Shahidi, stating that this great martyr acted until the last moment of his martyrdom regardless of race, color, religion, ethnicity, and nation for the salvation of humanity and the people of the world, expressed: Martyr Qasem Soleimani saved not only Syria and Iraq but the entire region.

He referred to his Worship, Prayer, Tawassul, supplication with God, self-purification, and other moral characteristics of this high-ranking martyr and stated: Martyrdom is the gift and reward for the good deeds of this faithful man and selfless soldier.

Martyr Qasem Soleimani holds a special place in the hearts of the people of Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine, Pakistan, Yemen, Afghanistan, and even in the hearts of the youth of the Kashmir Freedom Movement. He added: Arrogant powers wanted to erase the thoughts and ideas of Martyr Qasem Soleimani from the minds of the people of the world, but they could not.

The President of the Wahdat Ummah Pakistan, stating that the enemies of Martyr Qasem Soleimani and the System of the Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist used Israeli, Arab, British, and American tools, means, and facilities to neutralize the efforts of Qasem Soleimani but were unsuccessful, continued: The enemy apparently removed Qasem Soleimani's body from among the people with a cowardly attack, but his ideas became more prominent after his martyrdom and found more supporters in the world.

Emphasizing that the strategy, planning, and actions of Martyr Qasem Soleimani against the enemy were very precise and effective, he said: Qasem Soleimani played a major role in introducing the Islamic Republic of Iran to the world.

He added that Martyr Qasem Soleimani, in addition to military tactics, had a firm belief in the Quran and supplication, and whispered prayers on the battlefields and front lines. He emphasized that regularly reciting Ziyarat Ashura, visiting the shrine of Imam Reza (peace be upon him), and praying for martyrdom in the shrine of the Eighth Imam indicated his love for martyrdom and his spiritual personality.

He emphasized that Martyr Qasem Soleimani, in addition to being the commander of the armed forces, was a teacher, thinker, and mujahid in the field of action and a model for Islamic civilization, stressing: The blood of Martyr Qasem Soleimani that was shed at Baghdad Airport will destroy Israel.
