Ayatollah Marvi made the remarks during a meeting with Pakistan’s Interior Minister, Mohsin Naqvi, in the holy city of Mashhad on Tuesday.
"Just as the US-Israeli war on Iran brought Iran and Pakistan even closer, we hope relations among all Muslim nations will strengthen into deeper brotherhood, defying the enemies’ wishes," the senior Iranian cleric stated.
He accused hostile forces of deliberately trying to sow discord and hatred within the Islamic Ummah, emphasizing that such enmity runs completely counter to the teachings of the Holy Quran and Islamic values.
"We Muslims may have differing views on certain issues, but we are not enemies. In the religion of Islam, the integration and unity of the Muslim Ummah have been repeatedly emphasized," Ayatollah Marvi added.
He argued that the same unity and solidarity that enabled Iran to defeat American and Zionist forces would, if replicated across all Islamic nations, lead to the defeat of the Muslim Ummah’s enemies. "Indeed, if Islamic countries unite, the destruction of the enemies will be achieved with minimal cost," he said.
The religious figure also sharply criticized what he described as the silence of some Islamic governments regarding Zionist crimes against Palestinians. "Today, more than two million people in Gaza are deprived of the most basic necessities of life, and such atrocities are unprecedented in history," he remarked.
Pakistan’s Interior Minister, Mohsin Naqvi, echoed calls for stronger bilateral ties, noting that Iran and Pakistan have consistently stood by each other in difficult times. He also expressed deep concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, calling for an immediate ceasefire and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds as its capital.
