Tehran, April 22, IRNA � Substitute Friday prayers leader of Tehran, Ayatollah Mohammad-Ali Movahedi Kermani on Friday called on Iranian officials in charge of Hajj to honor the demand of Iranian Hajj pilgrims for security and dignity.

Delivering his second Friday prayers sermon at Tehran University Campus, Ayatollah Kermani said two important issues concern Hajj: Security and dignity.

'Then, lest security of Iranian nation is harmed; Lest Hajj pilgrims are harmed during Hajj rituals; lest, God forbidden not, certain people are killed; lest they are insulted both in terms of security and dignity,' announced the Ayatollah.

The Ayatollah advised Iranian Hajj officials not to pay attention to or trust the claims of the dirty Wahabis. 'They (Wahabis) are both enemies of Shias and Iranians.'

He said Saudis should wait divine revenge for what they do.

He criticized Saudis for their maltreatment of Hajj pilgrims without attempting to compensate for that.

He also criticized Saudis for sowing seeds of dissension in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, whose aim is unity.

He questioned the Muslim state rulers for not defending their Hajj victims and said on the other hand the US is also in close ties with a country, which based on evidence, had an effective role in the 9/11 incident.

He questioned, 'You (Saudis) are unhappy with the disavowal of pagans; are you (Saudis) pagans to get unhappy with it (Disavowal of pagans)?'

Also on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), Ayatollah Kermani said Foreign Ministry shoulders a grave duty in this connection and faces an enemy which spares no efforts to be hostile, is bent on sanctions and is not committed to any treaty.

'The enemy kills passengers of a passenger plane, gives medal to a murderer, claims to defend freedom and democracy and supplies modern weapons to the child-killer Saudi Arabia, which puts Yemen in blood bath and does not show mercy to young and the elderly. It (the enemy) at the same time allows itself to have nuclear weapons and orders Iran not having ballistic missiles for the sake of self-defense.'

He said westerners issue sanctions on Iran on the false hope to bring it to its knees, while -- as Supreme Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei has said, the Iranian nation should get stronger inward so that the US sanctions will become ineffective and foil the sanctions by well implementing the economy of resistance.
