TEHRAN – A Tehran Friday prayer leader has called for boosting solidarity in the Muslim world in the face of enemies’ divisive plots.

In an address to worshippers in Tehran on Friday, Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani warned that the enemies have surrounded Iran with the aim of rooting out Islam.

“They want the destruction of Islam,” he said, cautioning Muslims about the U.S. and the Zionist regime’s conspiracies.

He emphasized that the Muslim world needs more courage and solidarity, adding that Muslims need to break their silence regarding the situation in Yemen and Palestine.
