Saturday, 1 January 2022 (YJC)_ In separate messages to the leaders of Christian countries, Ibrahim Raeisi, while congratulating the birth of Jesus Christ (PBUH), emphasized that Jesus Christ (PBUH) is the symbol of resistance against the oppressors.
In a separate message to the leaders of Christian countries, President Seyyed Ibrahim Raisi, while congratulating the birth of Jesus Christ (PBUH), noted:
Global developments, especially the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic, have shown that the security and destiny of human beings are interdependent.
The text of the President's message is as follows:
in the name of God
With sincere joy, I sincerely congratulate the auspicious birthday of the auspicious Prophet of Endurance and Peace, Jesus Christ (PBUH) and the beginning of 2022 AD.
The anniversary of the birth of Jesus Ruhollah (AS) is dear and happy for the people of Iran; And he is no less respected by Muslims than Christians. He is the embodiment of resistance against the oppressors and the inspiration for freedom in the struggle against the dictators. That great prophet and his pure mother are mentioned many times in the Qur'an; Including:
Remember when God said: O Jesus, son of Mary, remember my blessings upon you and on your mother, when I confirmed you to the Holy Spirit that you spoke to people in the cradle and in middle age, and when you were given the book and wisdom and I learned the Torah and the Bible ... (Maeda, 110)
Global developments, especially the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic, have shown that the security and destiny of human beings are interdependent. The cooperation of countries in this crisis, especially in the field of vaccination, against the reluctance of some governments to send essential data-x-items in the field of health and sanctions of nations by them, clearly showed that a decent international system is in dire need of rationality, justice and spirituality.
I hope that in the new year, by relying on the moral virtues of the Abrahamic religions and in the light of the joint efforts of governments, sufferings and hardships will disappear from the world, the stability and resistance of nations will be fruitful and according to the gospel and promise of Christ, divine providence May the righteous servants of God rule over the earth and may humanity prosper.
Seyed Ibrahim Raeisi
President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
