Oxford Union merupakan sebuah persatuan debat di bandar Oxford, England di mana ahlinya terdiri di kalangan penuntut dari University of Oxford meskipun orang ramai juga boleh mendaftar sebagai ahli.. Ditubuhkan pada 1823, ia merupakan persatuan ketiga tertua di Britain dan memperoleh perhatian antarabangsa dengan kelincahan pendebat, dan menyediakan pentas yang terbaik bagi bakal ahli politik bukan sahaja di Britain malah negara lain.. Ada 2 jenis debat yang dilaksanakan oleh persatuan ini, "Competitive debating" dan juga "Chamber debating"~ Video dibawah menunjukkan "Chamber debating" dimana penceramah jemputan dipanggil untuk membentangkan hujah sambil mendapatkan maklum balas dari pihak penonton..
Topik yang dibentangkan di bawah pastinya menarik perhatian orang ramai lebih-lebih lagi apabila Britain pada ketika itu dikejutkan dengan tragedi pembunuhan secara terbuka oleh seorang Muslim di tempat awam.. Hujah yang diberikan oleh Mehdi Hassan paling terkenal sehingga banyak tersebar di FaceBook dan YouTube; tapi penulis ingin mengetengahkan speaker pertama bagi pihak yang menyokong Islam is a religion of peace kerana beliau bukan beragama Islam~ Debat sebegini wajar ditonton oleh semua lapisan masyarakat disambil menuntut diri sendiri agak lebih peka tentang fakta-fakta yang boleh membantu ketika kita hendak memberi hujah kepada orang seperti pihak pembangkang seperti di dalam video~
During a seminar, a woman asked, "How do I know if I am with the right person?"
The author then noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so he said, "It depends. Is that your partner?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?" Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind replied the author.
Here's the answer.
Every relationship has a cycle... In the beginning; you fall in love with your partner. You anticipate their calls, want their touch, and like their idiosyncrasies. Falling in love wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love.
People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet." Picture the expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something happened TO YOU.
Falling in love is a passive and spontaneous experience. But after a few months or years of being together, the euphoria of love fades. It's a natural cycle of EVERY relationship.
Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts. The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship; you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.
At this point, you and/or your partner might start asking, "Am I with the right person?" And as you reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else. This is when relationships breakdown.
The key to succeeding in a relationship is not finding the right person; it's learning to love the person you found.
People blame their partners for their unhappiness and look outside for fulfillment. Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes.
Infidelity is the most common. But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances. But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your relationship. It lies within it.
I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You could. And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later.
Because (listen carefully to this):
The key to succeeding in a Relationship is not finding the right person; it's learning to LOVE THE PERSON you found.
SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. You have to work on it day in and day out. It takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it demands WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make it work. Make no mistake about it.
Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your partner), Just as there are physical laws Of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. If you know how to apply these laws, the results are predictable.
Love is therefore a "decision". Not just a feeling.
Remember this always: God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let GO!
Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made the headlines again by making a poignant speech during the 67th Session of the United Nations General Assembly on 26th September 2012.. As expected, some countries including the US didn't appeared on the screen while Ahmadinejad is giving his speech.. He focuses on what is happening on the world right now with facts and some information which to me is outstanding! Ahmadinejad never failed to impressed me with his speech; one should NEVER LOOK at WHOM giving a speech, but LOOK at WHAT he is talking about! Cleverly mix of religion in his speech including the arrival of Imam Mahdi could enlighten others to see the beauty of it, God-willing~ The transcript of his speech can be found below:
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
All Praise Belongs to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, and May Peace and Blessings be upon the Greatest and Trustworthy Prophet and His Pure Progeny, His Chosen Companions, and upon all Divine Messengers. Oh, God, Hasten the Emergence of Your Chosen Beloved, Grant Him Good Health and Victory, Make us His Best Companions, and all those who attest to His Rightfulness.
Mr. President,
Excellencies,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I thank the Almighty God for having once more the chance to participate in this meeting. We have gathered here to ponder and work together for building a better life for the entire human community and for our nations.
Coming from Iran, the land of glory and beauty, the land of knowledge, culture, wisdom and morality, the cradle of philosophy and mysticism, the land of compassion and light, the land of scientists, scholars, philosophers, masters of literature, and writers, the land of Avicenna, Ferdowsi, Hafiz, Maulana, Attar, Khayyam, and Shariar, I represent a great and proud nation that is a founder of human civilization and an inheritor of respected universal values. I represent a conscious nation which is dedicated to the cause of freedom, peace and compassion, a nation that has experienced the agony and bitter times of aggressions and imposed wars, and profoundly values the blessings of peace and stability.
I am now here for the 8th time in the 8th year of my service to my noble people in this August assembly of sisters and brothers from across the world, to show to the world that my noble nation like its brilliant past, has a global vision and welcomes any effort intended to provide and promote peace, stability and tranquility which can be only realized through harmony, cooperation and joint management of the world. I am here to voice the divine and humanitarian message of learned men and women of my country to you and to the whole world; a message that Iran’s great orator and poet, presented to humanity in his eternal two-line poetry:
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul,
If one member is afflicted with pain
Other members uneasy will remain,
I have talked in the past seven years about the current challenges, solutions and prospects of the future world. Today I want to raise and discuss such issues from a different perspective. Thousands of years has passed since children of Adam (peace be upon Him) started to settle down in various parts of Earth. Peoples of different colors, tastes, languages, customs and traditions pursued persistently to fulfill their aspirations to build a noble society for a more beautiful life blessed with lasting peace, security and happiness. Despite all efforts made by righteous people and justice seekers, and the sufferings and pains endured by masses of people in the quest to achieve happiness and victory, the history of mankind, except in rare cases, is marked with unfulfilled dreams and failures.
Imagine for a moment:
Had there been no egoism, distrust, malicious behaviors, and dictatorships with no one violating the rights of others;
Had humanitarian values been viewed as the criterion for social dignity in place of affluence and consumerism,
Had humanity not experienced the dark age of medieval periods, and centers of power not hindered the flourishing of knowledge and constructive thoughts,
Had the wars of Crusade and the ensuing periods of slavery and colonialism not happened, and had the inheritors of these dark periods followed a course on the premises of humanitarians principles,
Had the first and second World Wars in Europe, the wars in Korea, Vietnam, Africa, Latin America, and in the Balkans not happened, and if instead of the occupation of Palestine and imposition of a fake government, displacement and genocide of millions of people around the globe, the truth behind these wars had been revealed based on justice,
Had Saddam Hussein not invaded Iran, and had the big powers supported the rights of Iranian people instead of siding with Saddam,
If the tragic incident of September 11, and the military actions against Afghanistan and Iraq that left millions killed and homeless had not happened, and if, instead of killing and throwing the culprit into the sea without trial or without informing the world and people of America, an independent fact-finding team had been formed to make the general public aware of the truth behind the incident, and prepare for bringing to justice the perpetrators,
Had extremism or terrorism not been used to secure political goals,
Had the arms been turned into pens, and military expenditures been used to promote well-being and amity among nations,
Had the drum of ethnic, religious or racial conflicts not been beaten, and if differences had not been used for the purpose of advancing political agendas,
Had the right to criticize the hegemonic policies and actions of the world Zionism been recognized to allow the world media to freely report and shed light on the realities, instead of taking deceitful gestures of backing freedom bent on offending the sanctities and most sacred beliefs of human beings and divine messengers, who as the purest and most compassionate human beings are the gift of the Almighty to humanity,
Had the Security Council not been under the domination of a limited number of governments, thus disabling the United Nations to carry out its responsibilities on a just and equitable basis,
If the international economic institutions had not been under pressure and were allowed to perform their duties and functions by using their expertise based on fairness and justice,
Had the world capitalists not weakened or victimized the economies of nations in order to make up for their own mistakes,
If integrity and honesty had prevailed on the international relations, and all nations and governments were treated equally and justly in the global efforts to build and expand happiness for the entire mankind,
And if tens of other unfavorable situations had not occurred in human life,
Imagine how beautiful and pleasant our lives and how lovely the history of mankind would have been. Let us take a look at the world situation today.
A) The Economic Situation
Poverty is on the rise and the gap is widening between the rich and the poor. Total foreign debt of 18 industrial countries has exceeded 60 trillion dollars, whilst the repayment of half of this amount is sufficient to eradicate poverty in the world. Economies dependent on consumerism and exploitation of people only serve the interests of a limited number of countries.
Creation of worthless paper assets by using influence and control over the world’s economic centers constitutes the greatest abuse of history, and is considered a major contributor to global economic crisis. It has been reported that only 32 trillions of paper assets were printed by one government alone. Development planning based on capitalist economy that runs in a vicious circle, triggers unhealthy and devastating competitions and is a failed practice.
B) The Cultural Situation
From the standpoint of the politicians who control the world power centers, concepts such as moral principles, purity, honesty, integrity, compassion and self-sacrifice are rejected as defunct and outdated notions, and an impediment to the accomplishment of their goals. They openly talk about their disbelief in the relevance of ethics to the political and social affairs.
Pure and indigenous cultures as the product of centuries – old efforts of nations, the common denominator reflecting human profound feeling and love towards beauties, and the force which breeds diversity, cultural vividness, and social dynamism, are under constant attacks, and susceptible to extinction.
A specific life style devoid of individual or social identity is being imposed on nations by organized and systematic destruction and humiliation of identities. Family as the noblest institution of societies and a center emanating love and humanity has been seriously weakened and its constructive role is on the decline.
Woman’s sublime role and personality, as a heavenly being, a manifestation of divine image and beauty, and the main pillar of every society, has been damaged and abused by the powerful and the wealthy. Human soul has become frustrated and the essence of humankind humiliated and suppressed.
C) Political and Security.Situation
Unilateralism, application of double standards, and imposition of wars, instability and occupations to ensure economic interests, and expand dominance over sensitive centers of the world have turned to be the order of the day.
Arms race and intimidation by nuclear weapons and weapons of mass-destruction by the hegemonic powers have become prevalent:Testing new generations of ultra-modern weaponry and the pledge to disclose these armaments on due time is now being used as a new language of threat against nations to coerce them into accepting a new era of hegemony. Continued threat by the uncivilized Zionists to resort to military action against our great nation is a clear example of this bitter reality.
A state of mistrust has cast its shadow on the international relations, whilst there is no trusted or just authority to help resolve world conflicts. No one feels secure or safe even those who have stockpiled thousands of atomic bombs and other arms in their arsenals.
D) The Environmental Situation
The environment as a common wealth and heritage of the entire humankind and a constant guarantor of man’s survival has been seriously damaged and devastated as a result of irresponsible and excessive use of resources particularly by capitalists across the world, a situation that has caused massive drought, flood, and pollutions inflicting irreparable damage and jeopardizing seriously human life on Earth.
Dear Colleagues,
Despite advances in scientific knowledge and technology, the aspirations of Adam’s children have not yet been fulfilled. Does anybody believe that continuation of the current order is capable of bringing happiness for human society? Today everyone is discontent and disappointed with the current international order.
Dear Colleagues,
Human beings do not deserve to be under continued sufferings of the present situation. God of wisdom and compassion who loves all human beings has not ordained such a destiny for mankind. He has ordered human, as the Supreme Creature, to make the best and most beautiful life on Earth along with justice, and dignity. We must, therefore, think of a solution.
Who is responsible for all these sufferings and failures?
Some people try to justify that everything is normal and a reflection of divine will, putting the blame on nations as responsible for all prevalent vices and evils.
They are of the opinion that:
It is the nations that succumb to discrimination and tyranny;
It is the nations that surrender to dictatorship and greed;
It is the nations that accept the hegemony of Arrogant and expansionist powers;
It is the nations that are influenced by the propaganda tactics of powers, and most all vices in our world are the result of their passive attitudes with the inclination to live under the supremacy of the world powers.
These are the arguments raised by those who tend to blame nations for the unfavorable conditions prevailing in the world, with the intention to justify the attitudes and destructive behaviors of the ruling minority. These claims, supposedly authentic, can not in any way justify continuation of the present oppressive international order. Indeed, Poverty is imposed on nations, and powers’ ambitions and goals are pursued either through deceits or resort to force.
To justify their inhuman actions, they propagate the theory based on ‘The Survival of the fittest’. While in principle, most governments and nations of justice-seeking people are humble and submissive in the face of Right, and are after fostering dignity, prosperity and constructive interactions. Masses of people never want to expand their territories, nor do they seek to obtain legendary wealth. They have no disputes among themselves in principles and have never played any role in the creation of any disastrous events in the course of history.
I do not believe that Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, and others have any problems, or are hostile against each other. They get along together comfortably and live together in an atmosphere of peace and amity. They are all devoted to the cause of justice, purity and love.
The general tendency of nations has always been to accomplish positive common aspirations reflecting exalted divine and human beauties and nobilities. The current abysmal situation of the world and the bitter incidents of history are due mainly to the wrong management of the world and the self-proclaimed centers of power who have entrusted themselves to the Devil. The order that is rooted in the anti-human thoughts of slavery and the old and new colonialism are responsible for poverty, corruption, ignorance, oppression and discrimination in every corner of the world.
The current world order has certain characteristics, some of which are as follows:
It is founded on materialism, and that is why it is in no way bound to moral values.
It has been shaped according to selfishness, deception, hatred and animosity.
It believes in classification of human beings, humiliation of other nations, trampling upon the rights of others and their domination.
It seeks to expand its domination by spreading discord and conflicts among ethnic groups and nations.
It aims to monopolize power, wealth, science and technology.
Policies of the world’s main centers of power are based on the principles of domination and the conquering of others. These centers only seek supremacy, and are not in favor of peace and definitely not at the service of their nations. Are we to believe that those who spend hundreds of millions of dollars on election campaigns have the interests of the people of the world at their hearts? Despite what big political parties claim in the capitalistic countries, the money that goes into election campaigns is usually nothing but an investment.
In such countries, people have to vote for parties that only represent a small number of people. The will and the views of the masses have the least impact and influence on the big decisions especially those made about the major domestic and foreign policies. In United States and Europe, their voices are not heard even if they constitute 99% of their societies. Human and ethical values are sacrificed in order to win votes and the willingness to listen to the demands of the people has become only a tool at the time of election.
The current world order is discriminatory and based on injustice.
Distinguished Friends and Colleagues,
What should be done and what is the way out of the current situation? There is no doubt that the world is in need of a new order and a fresh way of thinking.
An order in which man is recognized as God’s Supreme Creature, enjoying material and spiritual qualities and possessing a pure and divine nature filled with a desire to seek justice and truth.
An order that aims to revive human dignity and believes in universal happiness and perfection.
An order which is after peace, lasting security and welfare for all walks of life around the globe.
An order that is founded upon trust and kindness and brings thoughts, hearts and hands closer to each other. Rulers must love people.
A just and fair order in which everybody is equal before law and in which there is no double standard.
Leaders of the world must regard themselves as committed servants of their people, not their superiors.
Authority is a sacred gift from people to their rulers, not a chance to amass power and wealth.
Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Is it possible to have such an order without having everybody’s contribution to the way the world is run? It is abundantly evident that when all the people and governments start to think and commit themselves to the above-mentioned principles and become sensitive to the internationally important issues and participate in decision makings, their wishes find a chance to be materialized. By raising collective awareness, the seeking of a joint global management becomes more vivid with the chances of its implementation increased.
Therefore, Together We Need to:
① Place our trust in God Almighty and stand against the acquisitive minority with all our might, so that they become isolated, and can no longer decide the destiny of other nations.
② Believe in the God’s bounty of blessing and mercy and seek it in the integration and unity of human societies. Governments emerging from the free will of nations must believe in their own ceaseless capabilities and know that they can achieve victory if they vigorously fight the unjust order and defend human rights.
③ Pave the ground for the joint global management by insisting upon justice in all its aspects, strengthen unity, friendship and expand economic, social, cultural and political interactions in independent and specialized organizations.
④ Care about the interests of all the people of the world and join hands to reform the current structures of the UN with our joint efforts and coordination. It is necessary to note that the UN belongs to nations. Thus, the existence of discrimination amongst the members is a great insult to all. The existence of discrimination and monopoly in the UN is in no way acceptable.
⑤ Have more coordinated efforts to generate and propagate and firmly establish the language needed for designing the required structures of the joint global management filled with justice, love and freedom. Participation in global management is the basis of lasting peace.
The Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) as the second largest trans-regional group after the UN, held its 16th summit in Tehran with the motto of “Joint Global Management”, cognizant of the importance of this issue and the shortcomings of the current mismanagement in the emergence of crises and problems afflicting the world today. During the Summit, participating Heads of State and representatives of more than 120 countries underscored the necessity of a more serious and effective participation of all nations in the global management.
Fortunately, we are now at a historic juncture. On one hand, Marxism is no longer around and is practically eliminated from the management systems, and on the other, capitalism is bogged down in a self-made quagmire. It has indeed reached a deadlock and does not seem to be able to come up with any noteworthy solution to the various economic, political, security and cultural problems of the world. NAM is proud to once again emphasize the rightfulness of its historic decision to reject the poles of power and the unbridled hegemony ruling the world.
On behalf of the members of NAM, I would like to invite all countries of the world to play a more active role in making it possible for everybody to contribute to the global decision-making processes. The need to remove the structural barriers and encourage the process of universal participation in global management has never been greater before.
The UN lacks the efficiency to bring about the required changes. If this inefficiency persists, nations will lose hope in the global structures to defend their rights. If the UN is not restructured, international interactions and the spirit of collective global cooperation will be tarnished and the standing of the UN will be damaged.
The UN that has been created with the purpose of expanding justice and reinstitution of the universal rights has in practice been engulfed by discrimination preparing a supportive ground for the domination of a few powerful countries. Consequently, UN’s inefficiency has been on the rise. Moreover, the existence of the veto right and monopolization of power in the Security Council have made it nearly impossible to defend the rights of the nations. The issue of UN re-structuring is very vital and is a need that has been emphasized time and again by the representatives of nations, a goal that has not yet been accomplished.
I would like to urge the honorable members of the United Nations and H.E.. the Secretary General and his colleagues to place this issue high on their agenda and devise an appropriate mechanism to make it happen. NAM stands ready to aid the UN in this essential endeavor.
Mr. President, Friends and Dear Colleagues,
Creating peace and lasting security with decent life for all, although a great and a historic mission can be accomplished. The Almighty God has not left us alone in this mission and has said that it will surely happen. If it doesn’t, then it will be contradictory to his wisdom.
God Almighty has promised us a man of kindness, a man who loves people and loves absolute justice, a man who is a perfect human being and is named Imam A1-Mahdi, a man who will come in the company of Jesus Christ (PBUH) and the righteous. By using the inherent potential of all the worthy men and women of all nations and I repeat, the inherent potential of “all the worthy men and women of all nations” he will lead humanity into achieving its glorious and eternal ideals.
The arrival of the Ultimate Savior will mark a new beginning, a rebirth and a resurrection. It will be the beginning of peace, lasting security and genuine life. His arrival will be the end of oppression, immorality, poverty, discrimination and the beginning of justice, love and empathy. He will come and he will cut through ignorance, superstition, prejudice by opening the gates of science and knowledge. He will establish a world brimful of prudence and he will prepare the ground for the collective, active and constructive participation of all in the global management.
He will come to grant kindness, hope, freedom and dignity to all humanity as a girl. He will come so mankind will taste the pleasure of being human and being in the company of other humans. He will come so that hands will be joined, hearts will be filled with love and thoughts will be purified to be at the service of security, welfare and happiness for all. He will come to return all children of Adam irrespective of their skin colors to their innate origin after a long history of separation and division linking them to eternal happiness.
The arrival of the Ultimate Savior, Jesus Christ and the Righteous will bring about an eternally bright future for mankind, not by force or waging wars but through thought awakening and developing kindness in everyone. Their arrival will breathe a new life in the cold and frozen body of the world. He will bless humanity with a spring that puts an end to our winter of ignorance, poverty and war with the tidings of a season of blooming.
Now we can sense the sweet scent and the soulful breeze of the spring, a spring that has just begun and doesn’t belong to a specific race, ethnicity, nation or a region, a spring that will soon reach all the territories in Asia, Europe, Africa and the US. He will be the spring of all the justice-seekers, freedom-lovers and the followers of heavenly prophets. He will be the spring of humanity and the greenery of all ages.
Let us join hands and clear the way for his eventual arrival with empathy and cooperation, in harmony and unity. Let us march on this path to salvation for the thirsty souls of humanity to taste immortal joy and grace. Long live this spring, long live this spring and long live this spring.
KAMI akan menceritakan kepada kalian satu persatu. Kata Saidina Abu Bakar, 'Pada setiap buku terdapat rahsia, dan pada tiap-tiap rahsia itu ada dalam al-Quran dan ia terkandung pada huruf-huruf pembukaan setiap surah.'
Kami akan menceritakan. Supaya kalian dapat pengajaran. Pada suatu malam yang gelita Tuan Presiden didatangi seorang lelaki yang tampak sungguh berwibawa. Ia mengenakan jubah putih santan, dengan serban hitam yang gelap ibarat malam tanpa bintang, di tengkuknya terlilit kain hijau daun pisang. Janggut lelaki tersebut lebat tetapi rapi. Matanya bening berkaca-kaca, menambah mendung pada wajah. Di tangan kanannya memegang al-Quran. Lelaki misteri itu menjelma dalam mimpi Tuan Presiden sambil memesan, "Himpunkan ilmu-ilmu yang ada di dalam kitab suci al-Quran untuk tatapan."
Maka Tuan Presiden pun memanggil sekian ramai bijak pandai, ilmuwan, ahli falsafah, ulama, sarjana, ahli akademik dan pujangga untuk melancarkan sebuah projek yang ia namai: Wikifiqh.
Dalam sidang akhbarnya selepas penubuhan Majlis Penggubalan Wikifiqh tersebut, Tuan Presiden memberitahu, "Kita hidup tidak lama. Kita perlu mewariskan sesuatu yang mega untuk generasi hadapan."
Projek Wikifiqh itu mendapat sambutan seantero dunia. Sungguh ramai ulama dari dunia Islam datang mencebur diri. Mufti al Azhar dan alim Universiti Madinah turut serta. Seluruh sarjana empat mazhab bergotong royong menjayakannya. Dana yang tiba juga mencurah melimpah sehingga setiap ahli Majlis Penggubalan Wikifiqh tersebut kekenyangan. Wikifiqh akan menjadi jawapan buat segala soalan. Sembilan puluh sembilan hari kemudian, Wikifiqh siap. Menanti dirasmikan.
Sekali lagi lelaki yang tampak sungguh berwibawa tampil dalam tidur Tuan Presiden. Kali ini ia mengenakan jubah hitam bukat, dengan serban hitam yang gelap arang, di tengkuknya terlilit kain merah warna darah. Janggut lelaki tersebut lebat dan kerusut. Matanya memerah saga menonjolkan kedukaan pada wajahnya yang berlumur debu. Di tangan kanannya memegang al-Quran. Lelaki misteri itu bersuara, 'Masih ada yang belum lengkap. Perhatikan pada Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad di awal surah Maryam.'
Tuan Presiden tidak berani melancarkan projek ilmu Wikifiqh tersebut. Selagi ia tidak menemukan rahsia sebenar Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad. Akan tetapi Pengarah Pilihan Raya Parti percaya Tuan Presiden mesti membuka laman tersebut kepada khalayak, kepada rakyat, kepada seluruh dunia. Menurut Pengarah Pilihan Raya, "Sudah tiba masanya dunia mengetahui kebenaran Islam. Bukankah Tuan Presiden mahu membantu barat menghapuskan Islamofobia?"
Tuan Presiden enggan. Akan tetapi Pengarah Pilihan Raya berjaya meyakinkan Tuan Presiden bahawa di tengah-tengah kancah inflasi, kenaikan harga barang, tiada lagi pemberian subsidi, dan kemelut siasah; hanya Wikifiqh sahaja yang akan menjamin Tuan Presiden menang pilihan raya dan terus memerintah. Projek Wikifiqh adalah mercu tanda pemerintahan Tuan Presiden.
Ensiklopedia
Maka demikianlah Wikifiqh dilancarkan. Pada ensiklopedia tersebut rahsia Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad dijelaskan sebagai "huruf-huruf Muqaththa'ah". Adalah huruf muqaththa'ah tidak diucap sebagai bunyi huruf yang disyakali. Huruf muqaththa'ah dibaca dengan huruf yang merangkai. Ini kerana ia datang dalam bentuk huruf hijaiyah seperti alif, lam, mîm, shad, ra', kaf, ha', ya', ain, tha', sin, ha', qaf dan nûn dan jumlahnya empat belas yang bererti separuh dari seluruh huruf hijaiyah. Pada bahagian Wikifiqh di awal surah Maryam itu dihuraikan; bahawa huruf muqaththa'ah adalah potongan ayat yang termasuk dalam ayat mutasyabih yakni tidak ada seorang pun mengetahui ertinya. Huruf muqaththa'ah hadir dalam beberapa bentuk dan di banyak tempat pada al-Quran.
Mengapa lelaki misteri itu mesti menekankan lima huruf yang terdapat pada surah Maryam itu? Mengapa misalnya tidak disebutkan pada surah Shad, Qaf, dan al-Qalam. Kenapa tidak dipersoalkan huruf-huruf pembukaan pada surah-surah hawamim iaitu surah-surah yang dimulai dengan huruf ha' dan man iaitu pada surah Ghafir, Fushshilat, Al-Syura, Al-Zukhraf, Al-Dukhan, Al-Jatsiyah, dan Al-Ahqaf? Atau mungkin sahaja huruf Muqaththa'ah pada Al-Baqarah, Ali Imran, Al-'Ankabut, Al-Rum, Luqman, dan Al-Sajadah. Atau pada awal surah Al-A'raf dan surah Al-Ra'd.
Tuan Presiden mendapati lima huruf pada surah Maryam itu muncul pada surah yang menyinggung persoalan penganut agama Kristian. Adakah Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad dapat menjadi formula penyelesaian pertembungan peradaban barat iaitu Kristian dan dunia Islam? Tuan Presiden pun mengambil masa satu malam menekuni perenggan Wikifiqh pada surah Maryam tersebut. Ia mendapati semua ahli tafsir menyerah kalah pada rahsia huruf-huruf muqaththa'ah itu. Misalnya kata Ibnu Qutaibah, tidak ada seorang juapun yang mengetahui takwilnya melainkan Allah. Ibnu Katsir mencuba-cuba menafsir, dengan mengatakan huruf-huruf tersebut merupakan nama-nama Allah. Misalnya alif lâm mîm itu bererti ana Allah a'lam (Aku Allah lebih Maha Mengetahui); alif lâm mîm râ yang bererti ana Allah a'lam wa ara (Aku Allah lebih Maha Mengetahui dan Melihat). Akhirnya, setelah sekian himpunan ahli tafsir itu dibaca, Tuan Presiden Wikifiqh merumuskan: Tiada siapa yang memahami Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad. Allah yang lebih tahu apa erti huruf-huruf itu.
Suatu malam, lelaki berwibawa kembali tika tidurnya. Ia masih mengenakan jubah hitam, serban hitam seraya melilit kain merah di leher. Lelaki itu bersuara, "Mahukah kau aku dedahkan rahsia di sebalik Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad di awal surah Maryam."
Tuan Presiden yang kelu lidahnya cuma berupaya mengangguk.
Lelaki berjambang lebat hebat itu bertanya lagi, "Sebagai muslim apakah sumber rujukanmu?"
Tuan Presiden menjawab yakin, "Al-Quran dan sunah Rasulullah SAW."
Lelaki tersebut masih mengasak, "Setelah ketiadaan Rasulullah SAW siapakah yang dapat menafsirkan al-Quran?"
Tuan Presiden terdiam. Kemudian ia menjawab ragu-ragu, "Para ulama. Mereka pewaris Nabi."
Lelaki tersebut menggeleng. "Sedangkan Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad pun mereka gagal menafsirkannya. Pernahkah engkau membaca hadis sahih tentang Saidina Ali, selaku pintu ilmu? Dari Ibnu Abbas yang berkata Rasulullah SAW bersabda 'Aku adalah kota ilmu dan Ali adalah pintunya dan siapa yang hendak memasuki kota itu hendaklah melalui pintunya.' Nah tahukah engkau apa kata Saidina Ali tentang mereka yang mencuba-cuba menafsir al-Quran?"
Tuan Presiden tidak menyahut.
"Kata Saidina Ali, al Mushaf bayna daftay al-kitab la yanthiq, wa innama yantihiqu bihi al-rijal. Iaitu al-Quran itu bisu, ia diberi suara oleh penafsir."
"Jika begitu, jawapanku tadi benar?" Tuan Presiden memberanikan diri berhujah.
"Jawapanmu salah. Kerana itulah al-Quran ditafsir sesuka hati di zamanmu. Kerana itulah kerajaan pimpinanmu tidak dapat mengunggul. Kata engkau tadi, sumber ilmu umat Islam ialah al-Quran dan hadis. Saat aku bertanyakan siapakah yang dapat menafsir al-Quran sesudah ketiadaan Rasulullah SAW engkau tiada dapat menjawab. Ketahuilah al-Quran itu melekat bersama ahlul bait. Daripada Abu Sa'id al-Khudri bahawa Nabi saw telah bersabda pada Haji Wida': "Wahai manusia aku seakan dipanggil (oleh Allah) dan saatnya telah semakin hampir untukku menjawab panggilan, aku tinggalkan kepada kalian dua perkara berat (tsaqalain): Kitab Allah dan itrahku, Ahlul Bait. Sesungguhnya Allah Yang Maha Mengetahui telah memberitahu kepadaku bahawa kedua-duanya tidak akan berpisah sehinggalah menemuiku di telaga. Maka perhatikan apa yang kalian lakukan kepada mereka selepas peninggalanku.' Adakah engkau membuka pintu hatimu?"
Tukang sapu
Tuan Presiden tidak berkelip.
"Yang berhak menafsir al-Quran ialah ahlul bait sesudah ketiadaan Rasulullah SAW. Bukan yang lain. Merekalah yang mengetahui tiap rahsia al-Quran. Mereka pintu ilmu Jika engkau ingin mengetahui rahsia Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad, esok siang engkau tanyakan kepada tukang sapu sampah di pejabatmu. Ia lelaki yang putih matanya kerana banyak menangis. Namanya Yaakub." Ujar lelaki berwibawa sebelum berlalu dari mimpi Tuan Presiden.
Keesokan hari, Tuan Presiden membatalkan semua acara yang diatur pembantunya. Ia masuk ke dalam kamar kerja dan memesankan, "Carikan kita seorang tukang sapu bernama Yaakub."
Tidak berapa lama kemudian, tukang sapu buta itu dihadirkan ke pejabat. Tuan Presiden menggeletar. Inilah lelaki yang muncul dalam mimpinya sekian lama. Cuma, cuma ia cacat penglihatan. Cuma, cuma pakaiannya compang-camping dengan tangan kanannya memegang penyapu.
"Apakah rahsia Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad?" Soal Tuan Presiden menggigil kepala lutut.
"Ia adalah satu rahsia untuk satu kebenaran. Begini, saat Allah berfirman kepada nabinya Zakaria dari keturunan Yaakub. Bahawa Nabi Zakaria a.s. memohon Allah mengajarkan nama-nama yang dapat memadam kesedihannya ekoran ia tidak punya zuriat. Hadirlah Jibrail mengajarkan nama-nama; Muhammad, Ali, Fatimah, Hasan dan Husin. Setiap kali Zakaria menyebut-nyebut nama Muhammad, Ali, Fatimah, Hasan ia akan sentiasa berasa aman; akan tetapi saat ia menyebut nama Husin, hatinya kembali gundah gulana. Maka Zakaria pun bertanya kepada Tuhannya, 'Apakah sebabnya hatiku ini akan berasa sebak duka dan bertangisan-tangisan tatkala nama Husin disebutkan?' Maka Allah pun menyebutkan huruf-huruf muqaththa'ah Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad. Adalah Kaf itu Karbala, Ha itu adalah Halakal 'ithrah iaitu terbantainya keluarga suci Nabi SAW, ia itu Yazid, adapun Ain itu adalah 'Athsyal Husin atau dahaganya al-Husin di Karbala sementara Shad bermaksud Shabruhu iaitu kesabarannya al-Husin. Sebaik mendengar kisah penuh yang menimpa Saidina Husin di Karbala, Nabi Zakaria a.s pun menangis dan meratap'.
'Nabi Zakaria berdoa mengenang musibah yang dihadapi keturunannya Nabi Muhammad SAW, "Ya Allah, apakah makhluk termulia-Mu dan kekasih-Mu, puteranya akan mengalami musibah seperti itu? Apakah musibah seperti ini yang bakal menimpa mereka? Apakah Ali dan Fatimah berduka cita seperti aku ini? Ya Allah, pohonku, kurniakan kepadaku seorang putera yang membahagiakan hatiku di masa tuaku, serta jadikan dia sebagai pewaris dan penggantiku. Setelah Engkau kurniakan anak itu kepadaku, timpakan kepadaku musibah sebagaimana yang dialami oleh kekasih-Mu Muhammad sehubungan dengan puteranya Husin. Maka Allah pun menganugerahinya anak, Nabi Yahya a.s. Duhai, duhai kita pun tahu musibah Yahya disembelih Hirodus. Bahawa kepala suci Yahya diarak dan dilempar-lempar untuk memuaskan hati Herodia. Duhai, duhai petaka menimpa. Demikianlah Zakaria menanggung derita kehilangan anaknya. Demikian ia merasai pedih Nabi Muhammad SAW menanggung pembunuhan Husin di Karbala.
Bercucuranlah, teresak-esak menangis Tuan Presiden mendengar kisah tukang sapu tersebut. Barulah ia mengerti hubungan Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad dengan inti surahMaryam tersebut. Barulah serasi huruf-huruf terpenggal, huruf-huruf muqaththa'ah Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad tersebut dengan ayat kedua surah Maryam:
'(Ini ialah) perihal limpahan rahmat Tuhanmu (wahai Muhammad), kepada hambaNya Zakaria.' Dan ayat-ayat seterusnya: (Ingatkanlah peristiwa) ketika Nabi Zakaria berdoa kepada tuhannya dengan doa permohonan secara perlahan. Ia merayu dengan berkata: Wahai Tuhanku! Sesungguhnya telah lemahlah tulang-tulangku, dan telah putih melepaklah uban kepalaku; dan aku - wahai Tuhanku - tidak pernah merasa hampa dengan doa permohonanku kepada-Mu. Dan sesungguhnya aku merasa bimbang akan kecuaian kaum kerabatku menyempurnakan tugas-tugas agama sepeninggalanku; dan isteriku pula adalah seorang yang mandul; oleh itu, kurniakanlah daku dari sisi-Mu seorang anak lelaki. Yang layak mewarisi daku, juga mewarisi keluarga Nabi Yaakub; dan jadikanlah dia - wahai Tuhanku seorang yang diredai serta disukai. (Nabi Zakaria diseru setelah dikabulkan doanya): 'Wahai Zakaria! Sesungguhnya Kami memberikan khabar yang menggembirakanmu dengan mengurniakan seorang anak lelaki bernama Yahya, yang kami tidak pernah jadikan sebelum itu, seorangpun yang senama dengannya".
Ketika itu fahamilah juga Tuan Presiden tali-temali Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Shad tersebut dengan ayat 75 dan 76 surah Maryam juga, iaitu 'Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad): "Sesiapa yang berada di dalam kesesatan, maka biarlah (Allah) Ar-Rahman melanjutkan baginya satu tempoh yang tertentu, hingga apabila mereka melihat apa yang dijanjikan kepada mereka, - sama ada azab sengsara dunia ataupun azab kiamat, maka (pada saat itu) mereka akan mengetahui siapakah orangnya yang lebih buruk kedudukannya dan lebih lemah penyokong-penyokongnya. Dan Allah akan menambahi hidayah petunjuk bagi orang-orang yang menurut jalan petunjuk; dan amal-amal yang baik yang tetap kekal faedah-faedahnya itu, lebih baik balasan pahalanya di sisi Tuhanmu dan lebih baik kesudahannya'.
Tahulah Tuan Presiden sekarang kebenaran berada dalam rahsia yang tersembunyi. Kebenaran mesti dicari dan dibongkar dengan hati terbuka. Dan kesesatan mungkin sahaja berpanjangan untuk satu tempoh yang entah berapa lama. Sehingga ada hidayah dan petunjuk datang daripada-Nya.
Begitulah, kami sudah menceritakan kepada kalian satu persatu. Tidakkah kalian perhatikan?
Again, Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made the headlines by making a strong speech during the 66th Session of the United Nations General Assembly on 22nd September.. As always, attendants from US and some countries in Europe couldn't stand with his speech which makes them leave their seats before it ended.. Ahmadinejad brought back the same points from his previous speech like Holocaust and 9/11 which clearly sound harsh in the ears of those who walk out during his speech (笑) Ahmadinejad never failed to impressed me with his speech; one should NEVER LOOK at WHOM giving a speech, but LOOK at WHAT he is talking about! Cleverly mix of religion in his speech could enlighten others to see the beauty of it, God-willing~ The transcript of his speech can be found below:
Mr. President,Excellencies,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am grateful to the Almighty Allah who granted me, once more, the opportunity to appear before this world assembly. I have the pleasure to express my sincere thanks to H.E. Joseph Deiss, president of the sixty-fifth session for his tremendous efforts during his tenure. I also would like to congratulate H.E Nassir Abdulaziz AI-Nasser on his election as the president of sixty-sixth session of the General Assembly and wish him all success.
Let me seize the moment to pay tribute to all those who lost their lives in the past year, particularly to the victims of the tragic famine in Somalia and the devastating flood in Pakistan and especially the earthquake and the ensuing explosions in the nuclear power plant in Japan. I urge everyone to intensify their assistance and aid to the affected populations in these countries.
Over the past years, I spoke about different global issues, and the need to introduce fundamental changes in the current international order.
Today, considering the international developments, I will try to analyze the present situation from a different angle. As you all know the dominance and superiority of human beings over other creatures, lie in the very nature and the truth of humankind which is a divine gift and a manifestation of the divine spirit including: faith in God, who is the ever-lasting creator and planner of the entire universe.
Showing compassion to others, generosity, justice-seeking, and having integrity both in words and in deeds.
The quest for dignity to reach the pinnacles of perfection, the aspiration to elevate one’s material and spiritual status, and the longing to realize liberty; Defying oppression, corruption, and discrimination in trying to support the oppressed; Seeking happiness, and lasting prosperity and security for all.
These are some of the manifestations of common divine and human attributes which can clearly be seen in the historical aspirations of human beings as reflected in the heritage of our search for art and literary works both in prose and poetry, and in the socio-cultural and political movements of human beings in the course of history.
All divine prophets and social reformers invited human beings to tread on this righteous path. God has given dignity to humankind to elevate his status to assume his successor role on Earth.
It is vividly clear that despite all historical achievements, including creation of the United-Nations, which was a product of untiring struggles and efforts of free-minded and justice-seeking individuals as well as the international cooperation, human societies are yet far from fulfilling their noble desires and aspirations.
Most nations of the world are unhappy with the current international circumstances. And despite the general longing and aspiration to promote peace, progress, and fraternity, wars, mass-murder, widespread poverty, and socioeconomic and political crises continue to infringe upon the rights and sovereignty of nations, leaving behind irreparable damage worldwide.
Approximately, three billion people of the world live on less than 2.5 dollars a day, and over a billion people live without having even one sufficient meal on a daily basis. Forty-percent of the poorest world populations only share five percent of the global income, while twenty percent of the richest people share seventy-five percent of the total global income.
More than twenty thousand innocent and destitute children die every day in the world because of poverty. In the United States, eighty percent of financial resources are controlled by ten percent of its population, while only twenty percent of these resources belong to the ninety percent of the population.
What are the causes and reasons behind these inequalities? How can bone remedy such injustice?
The rulers of the global management circles divide the social life from ethics and spirituality while claiming the situation is the outcome of the pursuit of the path of divine prophets or the vulnerability of nations or the ill performance of a few groups or individuals. They claim that only their views and approaches can save the human society.
Wouldn’t you think that the root cause of the problems must be sought in the prevailing international order, or the way the world is governed? I would like to draw your kind attention to the following questions:
Who abducted forcefully tens of millions of people from their homes in Africa and other regions of the world during the dark period of slavery, making them a victim of their materialistic greed?
Who imposed colonialism for over four centuries upon this world?
Who occupied lands and massively plundered resources of other nations, destroyed talents, and alienated languages, cultures and identities of nations?
Who triggered the first and second world wars, that left seventy millions killed and hundreds of millions injured or homeless. Who created the wars in Korean peninsula and in Vietnam?
Who imposed, through deceits and hypocrisy, the Zionism and over sixty years of war, homelessness, terror and mass murder on the Palestinian people and on countries of the region?
Who imposed and supported for decades military dictatorship and totalitarian regimes on Asian, African, and Latin American nations?
Who used nuclear bomb against defenseless people, and stockpiled thousands of warheads in their arsenals?
Whose economies rely on waging wars and selling arms?
Who provoked and encouraged Saddam Hussein to invade and impose an eight-year war on Iran, and who assisted and equipped him to deploy chemical weapons against our cities and our people?
Who used the mysterious September 11 incident as a pretext to attack Afghanistan and Iraq , killing, injuring, and displacing millions in two countries with the ultimate goal of bringing into its domination the Middle East and its oil resources?
Who nullified the Breton Woods system by printing trillions of dollars without the backing of gold reserves or equivalent currency? A move that triggered inflation worldwide and was intended to prey on the economic gains of other nations?
Which country’s military spending exceeds annually a thousand billion dollars, more than the military budgets of all countries of the world combined?
Which governments are the most indebted ones in the world?
Who dominates the policy-making establishments of the world economy?
Who are responsible for the world economic recession, and are imposing the consequences on America, Europe and the world in general?
Which governments are always ready to drop thousands of bombs on other countries, but ponder and hesitate to provide aid to famine-stricken people in Somalia or in other places?
Who are the ones dominating the Security Council which is ostensibly responsible for safeguarding the international security?
There exist tens of other similar questions. Of course, the answers are clear.
The majority of nations and governments of the world have had no role in the creation of the current global crises, and as a matter of fact, they were themselves the victims of such policies.
It is as lucid as daylight that the same slave masters and colonial powers that once instigated the two world wars have caused widespread misery and disorder with far-reaching effects across the globe since then.
Dear Colleagues and Friends;
Do these arrogant powers really have the competence and ability to run or govern the world. Is it acceptable that they call themselves the sole defender of freedom, democracy, and human rights, while they militarily attack and occupy other countries?
Can the flower of democracy blossom from NATO’s missiles, bombs and guns?
Ladies and Gentlemen;
If some European countries still use the Holocaust, after six decades, as the excuse to pay fine or ransom to the Zionists, should it not be an obligation upon the slave masters or colonial powers to pay reparations to the affected nations?
If the damage and losses of the period of slavery and colonialism were indeed compensated, what would happen to the manipulators and behind-the-scene political powers in the United States and in Europe? Would there remain any gaps between the North and the South?
If only half of military expenditures of the United States and its allies in NATO was shifted to help solve the economic problems in their own countries, would they be witnessing any symptom of the economic crisis?
What would happen, if the same amount was allocated to poor nations?
What is the justification for the presence of hundreds of US military and intelligence bases in different parts of the world, including 268 bases in Germany, 124 in Japan, 87 in South Korea, 83 in Italy, 45 in the United Kingdom, and 21 in Portugal? Does this mean anything other than military occupation?
Don’t the bombs deployed in the said bases undermine the security of other nations?
The main question is the quest for the root cause of such attitudes. The prime reason should be sought in the beliefs and tendencies of the establishment. An assembly of people in contradiction with the inner human instincts and disposition who also have no faith in God and in the path of the divine prophets, replace their lust for power and materialistic ends with heavenly values.
To them, only power and wealth prevail, and every attempt must bring into focus these sinister goals.
Oppressed nations have no hope to restore or protect their legitimate rights against these powers. These powers seek their progress, prosperity and dignity through imposing poverty, humiliation and annihilation to others.
They consider themselves superior to others, enjoying special privileges and concessions. They have no respect for others and easily violate the rights of all nations and governments.
They proclaim themselves as the indisputable custodians of all governments and nations through intimidation, recourse to threat and force, and abuse the international mechanisms. They simply break all the internationally recognized regulations.
They insist on imposing their lifestyle and beliefs on others. They officially support racism. They weaken countries through military intervention, and destroy their infrastructures, in order to plunder their resources by making them all the more dependent.
They sow the seeds of hate and hostility among nations and people of different pursuits, in order to prevent them from fulfilling their goals of development and progress.
All cultures, identities, lives, values and wealth of nations, women, youth, families as well as the wealth of nations are sacrificed to their imperialistic tendencies and their inclination to enslave and captivate others.
Hypocrisy and deceit are allowed in order to secure their interests and imperialistic goals. Drug- trafficking and killing of innocent human beings are also allowed in pursuit of such diabolic goals. Despite NATO’s presence in the occupied Afghanistan, there has been a dramatic increase in the production of illicit drugs there.
They tolerate no question or criticism, and instead of presenting a reason for their violations, they always put themselves in the position of a claimant. By using their imperialistic media network which is under the influence of colonialism they threaten anyone who questions the Holocaust and the September 11 event with sanctions and military action.
Last year, when the need to form a fact-finding team to undertake a thorough investigation concerning the hidden elements involved in September 11 incident was brought up; an idea also endorsed by all independent governments and nations as well as by the majority in the United States, my country and myself came under pressure and threat by the government of the United States.
Instead of assigning a fact-finding team, they killed the main perpetrator and threw his body into the sea.
Would it not have been reasonable to bring to justice and openly bring to trial the main perpetrator of the incident in order to identify the elements behind the safe space provided for the invading aircraft to attack the twin world trade towers?
Why should it not have been allowed to bring him to trial to help recognize those who launched terrorist groups and brought wars and other miseries into the region?
Is there any classified information that must be kept secret?
They view Zionism as a sacred notion and ideology. Any question concerning its very foundation and history is condemned by them as an unforgivable sin.
However they endorse and allow sacrileges and insult against beliefs of other divine religions.
Dear Colleagues and Friends;
Real freedom, justice” dignity, well being, and lasting security are the rights of all nations. These values can neither be achieved by reliance on the current inefficient system of world governance, nor through the invasion of the world by arrogant powers and the gun barrels of NATO forces.
These values could only be realized through independence and recognition of others’ rights and through harmony and cooperation.
Is there any way to address the problems and challenges besetting the world by using the prevailing international mechanisms and tools to help humanity achieve the long-standing aspiration of peace, security and equality?
All those who tried to introduce reforms whilst preserving the existing norms and tendencies have failed. The valuable efforts made by the Non-Aligned movement and Group 77 and GrouplS as well as by some prominent individuals have failed to bring fundamental changes.
Governance and management of the world require fundamental reforms.
What should be done now?
Dear Colleagnes and Friends;
Efforts must be made with a firm resolve and through collective cooperation to map out a new plan, on the basis of principles and the very foundation of universal human values such as Monotheism, justice, freedom, love and the quest for happiness.
The idea of creation of the United Nations remains a great and historical achievement of mankind. Its importance must be appreciated and its capacities must be used to the extent possible for our noble goals.
We should not allow this organization which is the reflection of the collective will and shared aspiration of the community of nations, to deviate from its main course and play into the hands of the world powers.
Conducive ground must be prepared to ensure collective participation and involvement of nations in an effort to promote lasting peace and security.
Shared and collective management of the world must be achieved in its true sense, and based on the underlying principles enshrined in the international law. Justice must serve as the criterion and the basis for all international decisions and actions.
All of us should acknowledge the fact that there is no other way than the shared and collective management of the world in order to put an end to the present disorders, tyranny, and discriminations worldwide.
This is indeed the sole way to prosperity and welfare of human society which is an established and vivid truth.
While acknowledging the above truth, one should note that acknowledgement alone is not enough. We must believe in it and spare no effort toward its realization.
Dear Colleagues and Friends;
Shared and collective management of the world is the legitimate right of all nations, and we as their representatives, have an obligation to defend their rights. Although some powers continuously try to frustrate all international efforts aimed at promoting collective cooperation, we must, however, strengthen our belief in achieving the perceived goal of establishing a shared and collective cooperation to run the world.
The United Nations was created to make effective participation of all nations in international decision-making processes, possible. We all know that this goal has not yet been fulfilled because of the absence of justice in the current management structures and mechanisms of the UN.
The composition of the Security Council is unjust and inequitable. Therefore, changes including the restructuring of the United Nations are considered the basic demands of the nations that must be addressed by the General Assembly.
During last year session, I emphasized the importance of this issue and called for the designation of the current decade as the decade of shared and collective Global Management.
I would like to reiterate again my proposal. I am sure that through international cooperation, diligence and efforts by committed world leaders and governments and through insisting on the realization of justice and the support of all other nations, we can expedite the building of a common bright future.
This movement is certainly on its rightful path of creation, ensuring a promising future for humanity. A future that will be built when humanity initiates to trend the path of the divine prophets and the righteous under the leadership of Imam al-Mahdi, the Ultimate Savior of mankind and the inheritor to all divine messengers and leaders and to the pure generation of our great Prophet.
The creation of a supreme and ideal society with the arrival of a perfect human being who is a true and sincere lover of all human beings, is the guaranteed promise of Allah.
He will come alongside with Jesus Christ to lead the freedom and justice lovers to eradicate tyranny and discrimination, and promote knowledge, peace, justice freedom and love across the world. He will present to every single individual all the beauties of the world and all good things which bring happiness for humankind.
Today nations have been awakened. With the increase in public awareness,they no longer succumb to oppressions and discriminations.
The world is now witnessing more than ever, the widespread awakening in Islamic lands, in Asia, Europe, and America. These movements are ever expanding their spirit everyday and influence the pursuit of the realization of justice, freedom and the creation of a better tomorrow.
Our great nation stands ready to join hands with other nations to march on this beautiful path in harmony and in line with the shared aspirations of mankind.
Let us salute love, freedom, justice, wisdom, and the bright future that awaits humankind.
if you can't go to sleep my dear soul for tonight what do you think will happen
if you pass your night and merge it with dawn for the sake of heart what do you think will happen
if the entire world is covered with the blossoms you have labored to plant what do you think will happen
if the elixir of life that has been hidden in the dark fills the desert and towns what do you think will happen
if because of your generosity and love a few humans find their lives what do you think will happen
if you pour an entire jar filled with joyous wine on the head of those already drunk what do you think will happen
go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen
