Speaking during this week's Friday Prayers in the Iranian capital of Tehran, the interim leader of the prayers Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami spoke about the important message the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei published on Hajj pilgrimage earlier today.
Stressing that the Leader's valuable message must be analyzed at due time, Ayatollah Khatami said, "Two things are considered the pillars of Hajj, one is remembrance (Dhikr ) and spirituality, and the other is the unity of Muslims."
The senior cleric said that "Enemies are also looking to undermine these notions in Muslim countries, he also said, adding that the enemies seek to diminish spirituality, and attention to God and reduce the unity among Muslims."
Elsewhere, he talked bout the necessity of properly observing the rules related to Hijab and Islamic dress codes and said that the issue of Islamic dress codes are based on the holy Quran.
He stressed that observing Hijab is an Islamic issue and is subject to the country's laws while warning against improper dealing with people who do not abide by Hijab laws by the authorities.
