[RO] În numele lui Allah, Eminenţei Sale Papa Francisc

Epistola, pornită din Qum (capitala religioasă a Iranului şiit) spre Vatican, nu prin ştafete călări, ci prin intermediul celor mai moderne reţele digitale, circumscrie un moment istoric: solidarizarea liderilor religioşi ai lumii împotriva terorii. 

Marele Ayatollah Shirazi, admirând faptul că Papa Francisc n-a pus niciodată semnul egal între Islam şi terorism, a simţit nevoia să-i scrie, declarând ritos că nu mai pot fi tolerate crimele în numele religiei.

Barbaria autotintitulatului Stat Islamic nu are nici o legătură cu credinţa musulmană, cum nu are legătură nici una dintre violenţele grupărilor teroriste. Ele au împins lumea în mijocul “celei mai grave crize a erei moderne” şi împotriva lor clericii sunt datori să lupte.

Naser Makarem Shirazi (ultimul e un cognomen care indică locul de origine – oraşul Shiraz)  e între ayatollahii conservatori din Qum, un mujtahid redutabil (expert în dreptul canonic), deloc dedat gesturilor spectaculoase. A simţit nevoia să-i scrie Papei Bergoglio, pentru că el însuşi a patronat câteva întâlniri ale teologilor Islamului şiit, în care au fost condamnate “vehement orice formă de violenţă, terorism şi crime împotriva unor oameni nevinovaţi, în numele religiei”, decretându-le drept ”non – islamice”. 

Marele Ayatollah i se adresează Suveranului Pontif cu formula cu care începe orice lucrare binecuvântată în Islam: Bismillah, ar-Rahman, ar-Rahim (În numele lui Allah, Milostivul, Îndurătorul). Shirazi vede în faptele şi vorbele lui Francisc omenitate, puntea, mâna întinsă.  

Papa e un dar al lui Dumnezeu adus unei umanităţii suferinde şi dezorientate. Poate că, graţie lui, din conlucrarea liderilor religioşi ai lumii va veni soluţia pe care liderii politici nu sunt capabili să o identifice.

[EN] Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem-Shirazi wrote a letter to Pope Francis to appreciate his recent remarks in which he said “Islam is not terrorism.”

In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful 

To His Eminence Pope Francis, the Leader of the Catholic world,

I’m really delighted to have heard your comments during your last trip to Poland in which you stated “Islam is not terrorism” and further dismissed all divine religions of any form of violations or radicalism. Your wise stand regarding the religion of Islam and dismissing it of inhumane actions carried out by Takfiri groups such as ISIL is really admired.

It goes without saying that clear and strong positions taken by world’s religious leaders against the inhumane violations, especially those carried out under the name of religion in any part of the world, is a vital obligation.

I strongly condemned Takfiris’ vicious terrorist attack on the church in France which led to the cruel murder of a priest. As I’ve already said in my previous letter, I clearly declare, according to all Muslim scholars as well as the vast majority of Muslim community, Takfiri sects are non-Islamic and are considered as the world’s worst crisis in the present era. We’ve been warning the world of this great danger for years.

During last two years, two International conferences have been held in the holy city of Qom on the issue of Religious deviation and threats of Takfiri movements in which numerous prominent Islamic figures along and scholars from 80 different countries took part. During the events, all Islamic scholars unanimously condemned any form of violence, terrorism and murder of innocent people under the name of religion and announced such actions absolutely non-Islamic. They also warned those merciless, ignorant and murderer minorities that their path ends in hell!

Undoubtedly, the Takfiri terrorist groups would have been destroyed by now if it wasn’t for the arrogant powers’ support and helps to them.

As you have remarked, such violations have nothing to do with religions or denominations, rather they are originated form hegemonic government’s inferior materialistic objectives in order to collect illegitimate wealth. Fortunately, public awareness has been raised regarding radical and extremist behaviors and we can be hopeful that such actions finally come to an and.

In conclusion, I pray to God almighty for your success in spreading kindness, peace and spirituality in the world.

Yours faithfully,
 Naser Makarem-Shirazi,
