Religions Dialogue, Means of Achieving Desirable Global Society.

"Dialogue between the religions can lead the human society towards a desirable humane and heavenly society more quickly and more qualitatively", Head of Astan Quds Razavi Cultural Organization said.


The head of Astan Quds Razavi Cultural Organization said in an interview, "Today, despite the anti-religion attacks, the world's tendency toward religion and faithfulness is increasing."
"Coordination and overlapping of religions in this perspective is extremely important as it can lead to a desirable humane and heavenly society more quickly and more qualitatively", he added.
"For Muslims, and especially the followers of the household of the Apostle of God (S.A.W.), who live in the minority, the language of dialogue and rationality is the most successful sword that not only guarantees the existence of this school in the world today, but also leads to its dissemination and expansion", he said.
Hujjat al-Islam Gonabadi Nejad, referring to the position of Astan Quds Razavi among the Muslims of the world, said, "Astan Quds Razavi, the most important organization in the protection of the Razavi teachings, is based on the principles of Imam Khomeini (R.A.) who was the pioneer of dialogue between divine religions and even dialogue with the non-divine religions. It has been able to pursue an enormous project of interfaith dialogue in the direction of the same ideals and goals and restore this international responsibility."
He regarded the introduction and expansion of Imam Reza's personality model in dialogue with religious communities around the world especially among Islamic scholars and, establishment and continuation of religious discourse with religious communities and non-Muslims, introduction of ideas of pure Islam, in particular, the household of the Apostle of God (S.A.W.) and Imam Reza (A.S.), and fighting against extremism and violence committed in the name of religion, as some of the perspectives explained for this conference.
Director of Astan Quds Razavi Cultural Organization, also recounted the cultural and social convergence between religions to promote divine values in the world based on Razavi conduct, elimination of negative thoughts and misunderstandings caused by propaganda and media blasphemes against Islam and Shiism, promotion and expansion of the thought of young generation as other goals of this international conference.
