The message of his eminence on anniversary of destruction of Imam's sanctuaries in Baqi'

Due to their unreasonable thoughts, they destroyed not only the sanctuaries of the infallible Imams ('a) in Baqi’ but also all historical buildings and monuments of Mecca and Medina which were the signs of the Islamic dignity and the historical heritage of all Muslims in the world.

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Eighty eight years ago, on the 8th day of the month of Shawal, the cruel hand of the ignorant Wahabism was stretched forth toward the cemetery of Baqi and destroyed the holy sanctuaries of the infallibles Imams (‘a) in there, leaving nothing more than a pile of dust. This event struck the hearts of millions of Muslims around the world, the Shias and the Sunnis who love Ahl al-Bait of the Prophet (P.B.U.H).

The Wahabism, Due to its unreasonable thoughts, destroyed not only the sanctuaries of the infallible Imams (‘a) in Baqi’ but also all historical buildings and monuments of Mecca and Medina which were the signs of the Islamic dignity and the historical heritage of all Muslims in the world.

 While every nation in the world tries to keep its historical heritages, the symbol of its culture and civilization by spending too much funds to protect them and assigns severe punishment for those who destroy them; these ignorant people destroy the most important historical heritage of Muslims and deprive the world from these treasures of the Islamic culture and make a massive loss which is not recoupable.

They think that these Islamic heritages are their own properties and Mecca and Medina only belong to them, so they believe that they can do whatever they want with these Islamic places. The Islamic world must cry out and make them understand that these treasures belong to all Muslims. No one in the past and future has the right to treat them as his own properties, even the Wahabi Muftis of Saudi-Arabia who have not enough knowledge about the basics of Islam, Quran and Sunna do not have the right of decision making and issuance of Fatwa about these places.

We strongly condemn the destruction of the Islamic heritages of Mecca and Medina, specially the sanctuaries of the infallible imams (‘a) in Baqi’, and we hope that someday the Muslims wake up and ask for their legal rights, and entrust the cultural administration of MAsjid al-Haram and Masjid al-Nabi to the representatives of all Islamic countries, and cut the hands of radical Wahabis from these holy places of Islam. We ask all Muslims around the world to mourn on the 8 of Shawal, the anniversary of destruction of Imam’s sanctuaries in Baqi’ and vivify the memory of them.

We also hope that the sanctuaries of infallible Imams in Baqi’ be reconstructed better than before, as the sanctuary of the Imams in Samira is currently under construction even better than before after being destroyed by Wahabis; haply the hearts of Muslims be healed this way.
