Kermanshah - Referring to the developments of the war and economic pressures, Imam Juma Sanghrokoliai emphasized the necessity of maintaining internal cohesion, strengthening defense capabilities and paying attention to national interests in the process of negotiations.

According to Mehr reporter, Hojjat-ul-Islam Morteza Rezaei, in his Friday prayer sermons this week, referring to the developments of the war and its regional consequences, stated: The current situation should be examined taking into account the military, economic and geopolitical dimensions, and decisions should be made based on national interests and the actual conditions of the country.

Referring to the upcoming elections in the United States and the Zionist regime, he considered these developments to be effective factors on the political calculations of the parties involved and added: In his opinion, electoral considerations and efforts to present an image of political and military achievements can affect the behavior and positions of some officials in these countries.

Referring to the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz and the impact of maritime traffic restrictions on the world energy market, Imam Juma Sanghrokoliai stated: The reduction in the movement of vessels in this route has wide economic consequences and can put pressure on different countries. He evaluated this situation as one of the effective components on regional equations.

Referring to the issue of negotiations and demands raised by Iran, Rezaei said: Any negotiations should be followed according to the declared conditions and national interests. He mentioned the possibility of Iran withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) as one of the issues raised in the country's political environment.

In another part of his speech, criticizing some statements and positions inside the country, he emphasized the necessity of maintaining national unity in war conditions and added: From his point of view, in such conditions, actions that weaken the community's solidarity should be avoided and the issues of the country should be pursued by maintaining unity.

In the continuation of the sermons, Imam Juma Sanghrokoliai, referring to sermon 147 of Nahj al-Balagha, emphasized the need to learn from the fate of the past and said: attention to the instability of life and worldly power can be the basis for improving behavior and strengthening divine piety in humans.

Referring to the verse "Yumnoon Bama Unzal Ilik" from Surah Baqarah, Rezaei listed faith in revealed teachings as one of the characteristics of pious people and stated: Faith should be reflected in human behavior and actions, and Muslims should also pay attention to authentic teachings and hadiths of the Prophet of Islam (PBUH).

Emphasizing the position of the Quran in individual and social life, he added: In addition to personal guidance, the Holy Quran can play a role in strengthening social solidarity and dealing with cultural and moral harms. He asked Quranic activists and mosque officials to work hard to expand Quranic education and hold Quranic classes.

Also, referring to the anniversary of the birth of Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) and Nurse's Day, Imam Juma'a Sanqrokoliai emphasized the position of this great lady in the history of Islam and said: The greatness of Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) is not limited only to her family relationship, but recognition of her position, recognition of duty and standing according to divine duty are among the factors that make her position stand out.

Congratulating the activists of this field on Nurse's Day, Rezaei appreciated the services of nurses in caring for patients and, referring to the day of parent-teacher bonding, emphasized the necessity of cooperation between families and schools in educating students.

In the end, referring to the anniversary of the martyrdom of Jafar bin Abi Talib (a) and the day of physical training and sports, he emphasized the need to pay attention to responsibility, propagate religious teachings and strengthen the body and soul, and asked to follow the example of Amir al-Mu'minin (a) and Hazrat Abul Fazl al-Abbas (a) in personal and social life.
