Full text message of Grand Ayatollah Safi Golpayegani to Organization of Islamic Conference is as follows:
In The Name of Allah
Honorable Dear brothers and members of the Organization of Islamic Conference
Prophet Muhammad (A) Said: “If someone hears calling the Muslims and he does not answer him, not a Muslim»
Peace and mercy of Allah upon you
Dear brothers who are in the position of saving the Islamic trustworthiness, Quran trustworthiness, and divine trustworthiness; you are the biggest responsible for protecting the respectable sacred of Muslims and honor, blood and life of more that 1.5 billion person who are monotheist and united monopoly stayed in front of the attempts of the Imperialism and believes and praise in single brotherhood.
Today, we Muslims need the unity and peace among us more than ever and weakness of Muslims in a country is the weak of all Muslims. Organization of Islamic Conference has a big role in put out the fire of sedition and insecurity in Islamic World, and a little neglect is high treason to Islam.
The Organization can’t close its eyes on the Islamophobia atmosphere in the world and does not do the proper response, shouldn’t ignore the disagreements among the Muslims in the Islamic World in the name of Islam. Killing Muslims in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere by Muslims in very terrible and inhuman forms; call the Islam and Muslims into questions in front of the world people. Opposing to the Holly Prophet (A) invitation to divine and merciful they introduce Islam as atrocious, cruel and terrorist religion; killing the innocent children and women hide the truth of Islam.
We ask the Organization of Islamic Conference that in war and fratricide in Yemen why you are silence and not act?
Why do not question the government’s which acts are based on oppression and mass murder and deprive citizens of basic rights and kills its peoples from land and air and can not tolerate the religion which its principles are based of the Holly Quran and its background in this region goes back to the Prophecy Mission era till now and rout its followers? And if in this great Islamic tragedy don’t act your duty in Yemen, so where you act and what the philosophy of the emergence of this organization and what is the benefit?
Unfortunately some of the neighboring countries cooperate and collaborate with them in their heinous crimes contemporary.
I condemned the silence of so called international community of human rights which are attaché to Imperialists and enemies of Islam; I want OIC to broken its silence and act diligently and stop the military oppression and aggression of Yemen army over the Shias and strongly protest the rulers of Yemen and condemn their crimes.
