Ayatollah Lankarani said: “International Congress on Imam Reza and other conferences of this kind should compel seminary schools to move forward and to deal with issues that have not been discussed before”.
Head of the jurisprudence center of infallible Imams (AS) mentioned: “The fourth axis of the congress which is politics, justice and governance is more important than other ones. It needs more research attention particularly the issue of governance and I will give a presentation on this important matter during the conference”.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Ayatollah Lankarani presented some strategic solutions for improving quality of these activities. “The congress must refrain from repetitive issues and respond to new doubts. Some doubts such as absolute equality of Muslims and non-Muslims are discussed these days which need proper answers”.
He also considered use of imam Reza’s (AS) words in responding to doubts over advent of Imam Mahdi (AS) as an independent and valuable basis for research and emphasized the necessity of employing capacities of all seminary schools and taking actions in three levels of elite, international and public.
The Sixth International Congress on Imam Reza is held with the theme of "Human Rights and Dignity in Teachings of the Household of Ahl al-Bayt (AS)” concurrent with upcoming Karamat Ten-Day Celebrations.
