The administrative office of the seminaries in the holy city of Qom released a statement condemning the closure of the Islamic Centre Hamburg in Germany. They criticized the German government for shutting down the important Islamic center, comparing it to the racist policies of the Nazi regime. The mosque, known as the Blue Mosque, served as a vital hub for Shia Muslims in Europe.
The statement also called out Western countries for their hypocrisy in claiming to support freedom of expression and religion while backing Israeli aggression against Gaza. It urged Islamic nations to respond to Germany’s actions and demanded that the German government reverse its decision.
This move by the Qom-based office highlights the importance of standing up against discrimination and injustice, no matter where it occurs. It serves as a reminder that true commitment to freedom and tolerance requires actions to match rhetoric.
Let us stand in solidarity with those facing oppression and discrimination, and work towards a world where all are free to practice their religion without fear of persecution.
