The martyred leader was a standard-bearer of peace even in the most difficult conditions

Dr. Abdulrahman Mihalfi, a Muslim scholar and researcher from Hungary, in an interview with the Taghrib News Agency (TNA), expressing his condolences on the martyrdom of Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, spoke about the prominent role of the martyred leader in promoting peace, dialogue, and coexistence among nations.

Introducing himself, he stated: "My name is Dr. Abdulrahman. I am a citizen of Hungary and 70 years old. I was born into a Christian family, but during my studies, I lived in a student dormitory with several young men from Sudan. They spoke to me in Arabic, and this acquaintance changed the course of my life."

This Hungarian scholar continued: "First, I would like to express my condolences on the great tragedy of the martyrdom of Ayatollah Khamenei."

Referring to his meeting with Ayatollah Khamenei in the 1990s, he added: "I met with him in the 1990s, and this meeting had a very deep and lasting impact on me."

Mihalfi considered the most important characteristic of the martyred leader to be his spirit of engagement and peace-seeking, and stated: "What he did during his leadership showed that he was a personality of compromise, dialogue, and agreement. He never attacked other countries, and even the war with Iraq was a war imposed on the Islamic Republic of Iran."

He continued: "For this reason, I consider him a great figure, because even in the most dangerous and difficult conditions, he sought peace."

This Muslim researcher also, referring to the martyred leader's fatwa on nuclear energy, stated: "His fatwa regarding the limitation of nuclear power use only permitted the peaceful use of this technology. Those who do not understand this are not aware that his intention was not the use of nuclear power for military purposes, but rather he emphasized its peaceful application. But some do not want to accept this reality."

In conclusion, he emphasized: "In my opinion, the martyred Ayatollah Khamenei was the very figure who instilled in us, as people of the West, the desire and will for peace."
