Substitute Friday prayers leader of Tehran Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani said on Friday that production of nuclear bomb is religiously forbidden.
Â
“Islam bans shedding blood of nations; on the same ground, production of nuclear bomb and even thinking on its production are forbidden from Islamic point of view,” said Ayatollah Kashani in his weekly Friday prayers sermon at Tehran University campus.
Â
Ayatollah Kashani said that in the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Supreme Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, as the highest authority having the power of issuing decrees and having the first say in decision makings and politics, has explicitly banned production and use of Weapons of Mass Destruction.
Â
“The world of arrogance, however, is accusing Iran under vain pretexts that is after production of nuclear weapons,” he announced.
Â
He said Iranians based on their religious ideology believe in security of whole the world people and of believers of different religions. “That’s because Islam and country’s Constitution believe in security in all countries,” he made it clear.
Â
He reiterated that Iranian nation does not favor genocide and all the crimes which are usually committed by the world of arrogance.
