Sayyed Nasrallah says this pilgrimage season is occasion to block sedition among Muslims
"Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah issued a statement for the occasion of the Muslim Hajj Pilgrimage season.
Sayyed Nasrallah said: "Of the greatest meanings and values established by the holy rituals of the Hajj pilgrimage are mutual approach, coexistence, acquaintance, cooperation, and the paramount of all that is unity among Muslims. Millions of men and women pilgrims stand over there in Holy Mecca. Their God is One, their prophet is one, their Koran is one, their Qibla is one, their prayer is one and their rituals are one. Together, they perform the circumambulation of Kaaba and the other rituals of the pilgrimage including stoning Satan, offering sacrifices with the countless graces of Almighty Allah. The responsibility shouldered by pilgrims this year is greater and much more important than any previous year, due to what our Arab and Islamic countries are witnessing, from dangers, woes, conflicts, critical situations and serious challenges, on top of which are the continuous Israeli aggression against our people in Palestine, the American occupation of Iraq and the blatant foreign interference in our affairs and fates as well as the persistent effort to lay ground for sedition so that we kill each other and fight each other, and our occupier and enemy becomes our ally and friend and refuge sought by brothers against each other. This year's Hajj season should be an occasion for fraternity, understanding and harmony; an occasion to block any attempt to cause sedition among Muslims though a word, a slogan or a practice. Respecting the sanctity of the Holy land, the time and the event requires that every pilgrim feels responsible for preserving this blessed season. "
