BREAKING New:saudi Arabia Executes Prominent Shia Cleric by BETATRON(m): 6:53pm On Jan 02, 2016
Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah has
condemned as an “assassination” Saudi Arabia’s
execution of prominent Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-
Nimr.
In a statement carried by its website al-Manar on
Saturday, Hezbollah condemned the execution of
Sheikh Nimr as a “heinous crime,” saying the move
was based on “false pretexts” and “empty
allegations.”

Hezbollah said the reason behind the execution of
Nimr was that the respected cleric always spoke for
the oppressed against the regime in Saudi Arabia.
The Lebanese resistance movement also condemned
the Saudi authorities’ designation of Nimr and other
anti-regime Shia activists as terrorist elements,
saying Riyadh tried to divert attention from its terror-
seeking policies by killing Nimr and others over their
alleged role in acts of terror.

Hezbollah described the late Sheikh Nimr as a
spiritual scholar who always sought dialogue and
resisted injustice. His martyrdom will pave the way
for the final abolishment of the Saudi kingdom, the
Lebanese resistance movement said.

It said Nimr’s execution was a beginning in the New
Year for a string of new crimes by the Saudi regime.
Hezbollah called on rights groups across the world to
condemn the execution of Sheikh Nimr as a crime.
The Lebanese group also said it also holds the United
States responsible for the execution of Nimr as Washington has always provided direct support for
the Saudi regime and covered up Riyadh’s continued
violation of the rights of its people and the people of
other countries in the Middle East.

Saudi Arabia on Saturday executed Sheikh Nimr
along with 46 others in defiance of international calls
for the release of the prominent Shia cleric and other
jailed political activists in the kingdom.

Reactions continued to pour in over the execution,
with Nuri al-Maliki, Iraq’s former prime minister,
saying that the move will mark the end of Saudi
Arabia’s government.

“We strongly condemn these detestable sectarian
practices and affirm that the crime of executing
Sheikh Nimr will topple the Saudi regime as the
crime of executing the martyr (Mohammed Baqir) al-
Sadr did to Saddam (Hussein),” said Maliki, referring
to another prominent Shia cleric killed in 1980.

In condemnation of the execution of Sheikh Nimr,
Iran’s Foreign Ministry also said, “The execution of a
personality such as Sheikh Nimr who had no means
other than speech to pursue his political and
religious objectives only shows the depth of
imprudence and irresponsibility.”

Sunni Muslims are killed daily in Iran without getting any notice from the one-sidedness media.

There's not a single mosque of Ahlus Sunnah in
Tehran, but there are Jewish Synagogues, Parsi
Fire temples, Churches, Gurudwaras scattered
across the city.

Tell the Iran President to stop the maltreatment of thousands of Arabs in Al-Ahwaz and Khuzestan.

..below are a list of 9 sunni mosques in Tehran

Sadeghiyeh
2- TehranPars Mosque, Located in Dellavaran St

7- Vahidiyeh mosque, located in Shahriyar
8- Nasim Shahr mosque, located in Akbar Abad
9- Razi Abad mosque, located in Se'rah Shahriyar[b]

--you should also note these points sir
1. The Constitution of Iran and Imam Khomeini was
very clear that labeling Mosques as Shia or Sunni is
division of Muslim Unity. It is a curse to say this is
Shia Mosque or this is Sunni Mosque. Nay, all
Mosques are only and only for Allah.

2. Iranian Law says:
If there is an Area where majority is of SHIAs, then
Sunni are asked to pray behind Shia Imam.
While Areas, where there is Sunni Majority, there
Shias are also asked to go in that same Sunni
Mosque and pray behind the Sunni Imam and they
are not allowed to open up their any Separate
Mosque.
There may be few deviations to this RULE, but in
80-90% this rules is practiced in it's sprit and indeed
Shias are compelled to pray behind Sunni Imams.

Even Ayatullah Khaminei and all Shia Mujtahids
themselves prayed several times behind Sunni
Imams and that without any problem
.

Iran replied to this criticism along time ago don't know why you're still bringing it up

Everyone has soft spot for faction they belong. It's a big waste of time shocked . It's really difficult to blame oneself. It is difficult to stand neutral ground when you belong to one. A sincere truth seeker would explore available and necessary information in order to make informed decision.

Take home lesson that can free you from the cocoon of mental slavery:

1. Find out from external sources how Saudi/Wahabi was created

2. Wahabism-Politics as different from Islamic politics

3. The Royal house of El-Saud as different from Islamic establishment of Kingdomship.

Mixing all these together and thought Saudi Royal family represent Islam/Muslim is one of the dumbest thing that can only come out of ignorance.

Now You See It !!

Come and take a Closer look!

- This Unholy alliance shaking hands in this picture [saudi king and john kerry] has killed a Holy Scholar in Saudi Arabia last week, who was honorable to 200+ million people in the world. The Scholar named, Sheikh Nimr, peacefully called for Human Rights and spoke against the Saudi Kingdom. He did not raise Arms nor called for violence.

- Now this Unholy Alliance has gathered their Arab friends around a Table and plans to launch an offensive in the name of a Bloody Sectarian War against Iran.

- Saudi Arabia is the Founder of Wahhabi Extremist Ideology which has a Mask of Islam and the Body of a Barbaric Wolf.

- Saudi Arabia does not represent Sunni School of Thought, and opposes the Shia School. It has however influenced a portion of the Sunni School which has innocently unknowingly accepted and respected it to be the Guardian of the Holy Kaaba, which is a Deception.

- Saudi Arabia was founded in the 1920s by Britain after the Saudi Family assisted the British Monarch in defeating the Ottoman Empire in the 1st World War. If you are shocked or refute this, then study about the Lawrence of Arabia and Saudi Family.

- Saudi Kingdom with the support and weapons of America has waged an Unjust War on the innocent people of Yemen for the past 10 months which has put the deprived poor yet valiant nation of Yemen in a dire Human Catastrophe.

- The Sole purpose of Saudi Kingdom since its Establishment in the early 20th century has been to sow the seeds of discord in the Muslims and promote and fund violent and uncompromising Extremist Terrorism! This keeps the Arab world divided and ensures the Safety of Israel.

See it, because there is enough Light for one who wants to See.

Know it, because there is enough information out there for one who wants to know.

Stand for it, because there is enough Oppression to make one stand for Right, against Wrong.

Abu Abdul Rahman has not eaten in four days.

Hungry and weakened, Rahman and his family have been trying to limit their movements inside their house in the Syrian town of Madaya, fearing that any activity would drain the little energy left in their bodies.

"There are no more cats or dogs alive in the town. Even tree leaves that we have been eating have become scarce," he tells Al Jazeera's Ali Saad over the phone.

Describing the situation as tragic is merely airbrushing reality on the ground

Abu Abdul Rahman, resident of Madaya

Residents of Madaya, about 25 kilometres north-west of Damascus, are suffering from severe malnutrition and have little access to fuel and medical supplies due to the siege imposed by President Bashar al-Assad's troops since July.


The Red Cross says that people in the town are heating plastic to keep themselves warm.

[b]And as days pass by, Rahman says he has little hope he and his family can stay alive.

"Describing the situation as tragic is merely airbrushing reality on the ground," he tells in a subdued voice.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights on Wednesday said that at least 23 people, including children, had died in rebel-held Madaya because of the siege and mines laid around the town by Assad's forces, who are backed by fighters from the Lebanese Shia group Hezbollah.

At least 300 children in Madaya are suffering from malnutrition, the UK-based monitoring group said.

Local activists said an estimated 40,000 people in Madaya have little access to food and medicines.

Pawel Krzysiek, a spokesman for the Red Cross in Damascus, said the situation in Madaya was "very difficult."

"People are hungry and it is very cold out there with no electricity or fuel," he told the DPA news agency.

Medical professionals in Madaya said that people "were eating grass to stay alive."

"We cannot provide milk for infants," Dr Khaled Mohammed told DPA on Wednesday. "Today, a 10-year-old child died of malnutrition."
[/b]
The opposition Syrian National Coalition warned of a "humanitarian catastrophe" in Madaya.

The nearby town of Zabadani is also under siege, despite a deal last month that saw Sunni rebel fighters given free passage out of the town in exchange for the evacuation of Shia families from the northern towns of Kefraya and Fua.

The UN's Syria mediator aims to convene peace talks in Geneva on January 25 in the latest effort to end nearly five years of conflict in which more than 250,000 people have died.
