Leader Underlines Importance of Quran's Teachings for Mankind's Peace

"If Quran's concepts are shared with the world, the holy Quran is going to establish the main source of influence across the world, leaving the big powers and their weapons and the Zionist regime with no ability to follow their wrong deeds," Ayatollah Khamenei said on Tuesday, addressing a group of reciters of the Holy Quran in Tehran.

Iran's Supreme Leader said that the identity, intellectual and belief vacuum in the present world demonstrates how the mankind is in need of Quranic concepts and teachings.

"Muslims should reinforce their beliefs and broaden their knowledge of the Quranic concepts and employ methods for transferring the knowledge to others and the world," Ayatollah Khamenei added.

Last month, Ayatollah Khamenei rapped certain regional states which help the US to implement its plots in the region, calling them as traitors to the Islamic Ummah.

"Those regional countries which implement the US policies are actually betraying the Islamic Ummah and paving the ground for the US influence," Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing the participants in the 33rd round of the International Quran Contests in Tehran.

Elsewhere, he underlined that the main reason for Iran's might and power is the nation's resistance against the US excessive demands, and said, "The reason for the powers' fear from the Iranian nation and their different plots against the nations is its Islam-based might."

"The enemy fears a mighty Islam and a brave Islam," he added.

Noting that Iran's sincere positions and performance is the main reason for the country's influence among the Muslims and a cause of the Islamic Republic's might, Ayatollah Khamenei said the arrogant powers' promises and threats have not been able to fool and frighten the Iranian nation.
