AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): On Thursday, January 30, 2025, the second international gathering of Media Narrators of AhlulBayt (a.s.) was held at the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.
This ceremony, dedicated to non-Iranian seminary students, was attended by 100 media and social media activists and influencers from various countries around the world. Some of these international activists reported on their media activities.
Afghanistan
In the beginning, Hojat al-Islam Sayed Jafar Hosseini from Afghanistan, while appreciating the World Assembly of AhlulBayt (a.s.), pointed to the difficult conditions during the Occultation of Imam Mahdi (a.s.) and said, “The main condition for the Reappearance (of Imam Mahdi) is the readiness of the people. Western media are always trying to distort the image of the Reappearance. Meanwhile, the media plays the most effective role in preparing the ground for the Reappearance. Therefore, if we work correctly in this field, threats will turn into opportunities.”
Pakistan
Hojat al-Islam Shahid Ali Khan from Pakistan, while honoring the days of the Bi’that of the Prophet (p.b.u.h), said, “Today, we are on the battlefield, and the commanders of this war were individuals like Martyr Sayed Hassan Nasrallah and Martyr Haj Qassem Soleimani, and this path will continue. In addition to the hard war, we are witnessing a soft war, which has many complexities. Therefore, we will be effective only if we have a complete understanding of this field.”
Kashmir
Next, Hojat al-Islam Hasnain Mir from Kashmir stated, “We are currently on the path of the vision of the new Islamic civilization, which is presented as the second goal of the second step of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. Media is a tool for changing perception and, consequently, changing the behavior of nations, which powerful countries utilize. Therefore, we must also use this tool to witness the widespread establishment of the divine government in the world.”
Indonesia
At the end of the international media activists’ presentations, Hojat al-Islam Ali Bafaqih from Indonesia stated, “I come from a country with the largest Muslim population. Our team is active on all platforms, and we now have 4,000 followers, with 125,000 people viewing our activities. We have tried to be the media voice of the Supreme Leader and convey the fatherly statements of Ayatollah Khamenei to the people.”
It is worth mentioning that the first international gathering of the Narrators of AhlulBayt (a.s.) was held in July 2023 in Qom, with the participation of 110 media activists from the Indian subcontinent, including India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar.
