Commemorating Holy Prophet (PBUH) Al-Mab'ath occasion, Iranian leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei underlined Iran's steadfast support for Palestine, denouncing Muslim states' silence in the face of Israeli aggression against Palestinians.

It is worth noting that Eid Al-Mab’ath marks the day Prophet Muhammad (Peace upon Him) was chosen as God’s messenger. 

"Mab'ath is the greatest gift that God has given to all mankind and it carries treasures that can ensure mankind's well-being in this world until the end," the Iranian leader stated.

These remarks were made when Khamenei addressed a group of foreign representatives, ambassadors, and participants of an international Quran contest in Tehran on Saturday.

“If the Islamic governments had stood firm on the issue of Palestine from the first day and resisted, the situation in the West Asian region would certainly have been different and the Islamic Ummah would have been stronger and more united today,” he added.

"In revealing the truth, we are not afraid of anyone and we defend the Palestinian nation in any way we can, and this has caused the enemy to launch Iranophobia," he also highlighted.

Elsewhere in his remarks, Khamenei criticized Muslim countries for remaining silent in the face of the  Israeli atrocities and aggressiveness against the Palestinian people, acknowledging that the aggression on Palestine is an aggression on the entire Islamic Nation.

Tehran “has no reservations in openly supporting and defending the Palestinian nation,” he further stressed.

Concurrently, he criticized Western powers' meddling in the internal affairs of various Muslim governments, stressing that while those Western states cannot manage their own internal problems, they interfere in the affairs of other countries.

“The situation has reached a point where America, France, and several other countries, claiming to solve the problems of Muslims, have given themselves the right to interfere in the Islamic world, while they are helpless and unable to solve their problems and manage their countries," the Iranian leader stressed.

Regarding Turkey-Syria Earthquake, Khamenei said, "This [quake] relates to all Muslims. It means that everyone should really feel pain, feel suffering from such things."
