Human catastrophes due to religions excommunicate others
Hujjat-ul-Islam Ali Younesi, presidential special deputy in ethnic and religious minorities’ affairs called dialogue as the means for mutual familiarity calling the followers of different religions to take leading roles in recognizing each other.
 
He referred to mutual familiarity as the Qur’anic way to reach a life in the shadow of peace and coexistence.
 
The cleric stressed,” To recognize others is to admit diversity and one should admit different communities through a deep understanding of each other since the holy Qur’an is in pursuit of recognition and admittance as the result of dialogue.”
 
Special deputy of president said ignoring any part of the diversity in this world will be a fracture for the nature and noted,” People despite the diversity in religion, ethnicity and language among them should live together because to ignore a part of this society will lead to omission of other parts.”
 
Hujjat-ul-Islam Ali Younesi referred to the plight of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar and the appearance of Daesh and other terrorist groups from within Islamic nation as two instances of people rejecting other groups rather than themselves.
 
“As far as different religions cannot find peace among themselves they will be unable to confront ignorance and that will spark war among them” said the scholar.
 
The seventh round of interfaith dialogue between Iran and Austria, with the theme of “Man, Nature and Freedom”, was has been underway in the Iranian capital of Tehran attended by religious elites and luminaries from Iran and Austria.
