السبت, 23 تشرين2/نوفمبر 2024

Ayatollah Ramazani, Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, said, “Despite its claims about defending women’s rights, the West has not done so. Today, in the West, unfortunately, women are used as tools and have not reached their true position.”

ABWA Official Website – On Saturday, November 23, 2024, members of the Scientific Committee and Policy Council of the International Conference “Identity Challenges of Contemporary Muslim Women, and Lady Fatimah (a.s.) as Role Model” from Al-Mustafa (p.b.u.h) International University met with Ayatollah Reza Ramazani, Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.

In this meeting, while welcoming the guests, Ayatollah Ramazani stated, “The most important issue in holding such conferences is to provide comprehensive, accurate, and in-depth content in international formats.”

Regarding the virtues of Lady Fatimah Zahra (a.s.), he said, “She is a perfect and comprehensive role model for girls, wives, and even men and humans. Therefore, regardless of gender, all humanity can take Lady Zahra (a.s.) as their role model.”

Emphasizing the necessity of studying all stages of Lady Zahra’s (a.s.) life, the Secretary General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly added, “Unfortunately, some only focus on a specific era of Lady’s life. While all aspects of her life should be examined and studied. On the other hand, it is necessary to address the persuasive aspects of the life of the daughter of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) in the educational, cultural, political, and social fields; and not just the proscribing and challenging aspects.”

In this regard, he explained, “In addition to the divine personality, it is necessary to address the worldly aspect of Lady Zahra (a.s.) as a comprehensive and perfect human being. Because she was struggling with various hardships, crises, and challenges of the time in this world. At that time, people used to disrespect and neglect Lady Khadijah (a.s.), the mother of Lady Zahra (a.s.). So much so that the Prophet (p.b.u.h) said in this regard: “No prophet has been harassed and harmed as much as I have.” The Prophet (p.b.u.h) was harassed a lot by the infidels, especially in Mecca, and the companions told the Prophet (p.b.u.h) dozens of times that they were ready for jihad against the infidels. But the Prophet (p.b.u.h) responded that he was not ordered to wage jihad. Until after the migration to Medina, God allowed the Muslims to jihad.”

Regarding some incorrect introductions of Islam, Ayatollah Ramazani stated, “Some claim that the sword of Imam Ali (a.s.) and the wealth of Lady Khadijah (a.s.) caused the spread of Islam. While during the time of the Prophet’s (p.b.u.h) residence in Mecca, there was no talk of the sword and jihad. Rather, what caused the spread of Islam was the morality and attractiveness of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) and the lofty teachings of Islam.”

“In this regard, the Prophet (p.b.u.h) gave women personality, and the movement to revive women’s personality began during his time. Because women were neglected throughout history, and even women were considered part of the inheritance for the eldest son! In such a society, when Lady Zahra (a.s.) entered the Prophet’s (p.b.u.h) home, he would stand up for her, go towards her, invite her to sit in his place and kiss her hands. The Prophet’s (p.b.u.h) respect for Lady Zahra (p.b.u.h) was due to her morality and personality perfections. If it were not for Imam Ali (a.s.), Lady Zahra (a.s.) would have no equal or spouse. Therefore, the Prophet (p.b.u.h) defended women and revived their rights,” he added.

The professor of the higher levels of the Qom Seminary continued, “There is no difference between men and women in achieving spiritual positions. In the Quran, God has addressed men and women together. This is while in the West, due to severe restrictions on women, feminism was created. Despite its claims about defending women’s rights, the West has not done so. Today, in the West, unfortunately, women are used as tools and have not reached their true position.”

“Women can bring about change in society,” he said, “The first component to create modern Islamic civilization, is education, and the educational role of women in this field is important. Because half of the world’s population is made up of women.”

On raising children, Ayatollah Ramazani continued, “Lady Zahra (a.s.) raised the best children with the least resources. In such a way that sometimes nothing was found in their home. But today, although women have the most resources, they cannot even provide average upbringing for their children.”

“In the modern era, we must provide the necessary content. We can introduce Lady Zahra (a.s.) to the world as a comprehensive, accurate, and perfect model in various fields, and in this case, we will be victorious in achieving modern Islamic civilization. Of course, our knowledge and understanding of Lady Zahra (a.s.) must be complete, and we must introduce her in international formats and with appropriate literature. Women in society and those who are on the path of perfection, emulate Lady Zahra (a.s.) as their role model.”

Regarding the areas of cooperation between the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly and the International Conference of “Identity Challenges of Contemporary Muslim Women, and Lady Fatimah (a.s.) as Role Model” Ayatollah Ramazani said, “ABNA News Agency can provide news coverage on the topic of women, family, and introducing Lady Zahra (a.s.). Also, the capacity of the virtual encyclopedia WikiShia in 22 languages ​​can be used to present articles in the form of wikis, and translations.”

It is worth mentioning that at the beginning of this meeting, the organizers of the international conference “Identity Challenges of Contemporary Muslim Women, and Lady Fatimah (a.s.) as Role Model,” presented a report on the process and goals of the conference.
