Es-Safi: Commends House Of Parliament And Encourages Government To Develop Solutions For Challenges

Jan 30, 2015. Second part of the Friday Sermon held in the Imam Hussein holy shrine, the representative of the Islamic Supreme Religious Authority and the preacher of the Friday Sermon in Kerbala city, His Eminence Sayyed Ahmed Es-Safi states: "The budget for this year has been announced by the Iraqi House of Parliament and the Islamic Supreme Religious Authority considers this a right step in developing precise responsibilities for the departments of the government." The House of Parliament members are obliged to continuously develop ideas that best serve the interests of Iraq and to unite their energies to find solutions for the many faced challenges. Due to the fact, that the country is currently facing both security threats by the terrorist groups and financial threats that resulted in great loss of the country's wealth. On the other hand, His Eminence states that the heroic and courageous efforts of the military forces and volunteers in their fight against terrorism clearly prevented the danger that would have resulted in greater losses. For this reason, the government is requested to reward the families of the martyred individuals from the military forces and volunteers who dedicate their lives to defend their country and their fellow citizens. Es-Safi also requested from the fighters to document their victories and events that occur on the battlefields. For if this is not done, then others will document the events based on their own perspective, and will result in misunderstanding and lack of credibility. Nonetheless, the government is further responsible to investigate and punish the individuals who have assaulted the innocent civilians which resulted in the loss of their lives or financial status.
