Trump’s Remarks on Arab States Humiliation of Muslim World: Iran Leader

Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Khamenei says the US President's claim that some Muslim countries cannot survive without Washington’s help is a humiliation of Muslim countries.

Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei described Trump’s recent “flagrant” comments on Arab countries as a humiliation of Islamic states, saying the humiliation is a sickness and nothing is worse than this.

“We [Muslims] have not referred to the holy Quran, and this is why we cannot find a treatment for this sickness,” stressed the Leader in an address to the participants of the 35th International Quran Competition in Tehran on Thursday.

“Today, we [Muslims] need the Quran because the best way for Muslim societies and Ummah is to act according to the holy Quran.”

Elsewhere in his statements, Ayatollah Khamenei noted that Muslims must stand against the US bullying and the rest of world bullies.

“If they (Muslim nations) do not comply, if they do not pay attention to these things, they will be humiliated and corrupted. Unfortunately, this has happened at the moment.”

The Leader of Islamic Revolution further underlined that “Today, in our Muslim region, there exists a civil war, and the countries are under great pressures.”

“[Today] the foolish governments of some countries wage war against some others and commit crimes. The Yemeni people are in such a misery! Their wedding ceremony turns into a funeral. They are bombarded and people in the streets and mosques are killed. The same is happening in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Syria as well,” he noted.

“That is because we Muslims have forgotten the unity among believers. That is because we do not act according to the holy Quran. If we act according to the Quran, we will retain dignity. This is the only way to bring happiness to Muslims.”
