‘Criminal’ US, Israel enemies of all Muslims not just Iran, says Leader, urging unity
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei says the criminal rulers of the United States and the Zionist regime are not only the enemies of the Iranian nation but also hostile toward the entire Muslim Ummah.
Ayatollah Khamenei made the remarks in a message marking Unity Week on Sunday.
The Leader advised the rulers of Islamic countries, particularly those in West Asia and the Persian Gulf region, to know their real enemy, as well as recognize its plots and confront them.
“The remedy for the problems of the Muslim Ummah lies in unity of purpose, friendship, and cooperation in the pursuit of goodness and righteousness,” he added.
“The criminal rulers of the United States and the illegitimate Zionist regime are sworn enemies of this unity and friendship.
“They are not merely enemies of the Islamic Republic, the Iranian nation, and the great front of Islamic resistance; they are hostile to the entire Muslim Ummah, including the nations of West Asia and North Africa. In this regard, even the rulers of these states—many of whom are considered their allies—are not exempt,” the Leader highlighted.
Ayatollah Khamenei also pointed to the public disrespect shown and offensive language used by the leaders of the arrogant powers toward some leaders of Muslim countries.

He further emphasized that the issue of unity among Muslims has a successful example among the people of Iran, where the enemies’ conspiracies have not had much effect in undermining it.
“But surely, the ill-wishers are always lying in wait for this great blessing. What gives them hope is the highlighting of differences. Although ideological and religious differences constitute an important part of what the enemies of Islam seek to exploit, and they place great reliance on using them, they will not stop there,” he noted.
“They seek to turn all kinds of racial, cultural, social, economic, political, and geographical differences into pretexts for creating division among Muslim peoples in Iran and in every other Islamic country, so that they can sit back and watch the Muslim Ummah become fragmented, and its strength gradually depleted, and then, at an opportune moment, impose their domination over them.”
