Islamic dignity emerges from the unity of the Islamic Ummah (Speech)
The title is Imam Khamenei’ speech about Islamic unity[1] printed on Jun 18, 2018, a part of which is as follows:
Islamic dignity
When the disunity is crushed, countries will be able to get close to one another, and then, they can preserve their unity and solidarity. Islamic dignity lies in the unity of the Islamic Ummah. By Allah's favour, the Islamic Ummah should achieve the peak of transcendence in the shade of unity, and it will definitely achieve it. It seems that one of the most important factors and elements, which can be a source of dignity and honour for the Holy Prophet of Islam, for Muslims, and for the Islamic Ummah is the unity of the Islamic Ummah and the elimination of discord.
Policies of the Arrogant Front
Dear brothers, dear sisters, today the policies of the Arrogant Front are creating tension and discord among Muslim nations and even among the people of these nations. Today, this is the doing of the enemies' policy. It is a plan that plotters and schemers, of the criminal US and the Zionist regimes, devised for our country because it is one of the most important Islamic regions. You can see the signs, presently: the tragic events in Yemen, the events in Syria, and the events, which took place in Iraq and other Islamic countries. The solution begins when Muslim nations discover the main reason for all this turmoil. The main reason stems from the enmity of the front of arrogance against the Islamic community and Ummah: this is at the core of the issue. Muslims must take a stand against the policies of the Arrogant Front. Standing up to the West is the responsibility of government members, political officials, and the religious, cultural personalities throughout the Islamic World. Another severe problem the Zionist regime, which has been planted in the heart of the Islamic World for the sake of creating discord, causing sedition, and posing threats.
End of the Zionists regime
There is no other way to heal Palestine, and this also provokes the annihilation of the evil and illegitimate Zionist regime which, unfortunately, has power today. By Allah's favour and grace, this [end of the Zionists regime] will definitely happen in the not-too-distant future – one cannot set a date for this time to come, it will happen. And when it happens, Muslim nations will manage to achieve unity in the region, God willing.
Zionists the source of treachery
The source of discord in the region is due to the existence of this [Zionist] enemy. The existence of a mutual enemy often leads to unity, but the opposite has been experienced here: the enemy has become a source of discord and indifference. The enemy has become a source for creating cells of treachery among some officials in Islamic countries. When the disunity is crushed, countries will be able to get close to one another, and then, they can preserve their unity and solidarity. Islamic dignity lies in the unity of the Islamic Ummah. By Allah's favour, the Islamic Ummah should achieve the peak of transcendence in the shade of unity, and it will definitely achieve it.
