Imam Khamenei urges Qur’anic lifestyle in Islamic societies
Local Editor
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei says "the recitation and memorization of the holy Qur'an is a prerequisite to achieving an "ideal Qur'anic society."
"Qur'anic guidance and an Islamic lifestyle should be dominant in an Islamic society," said Imam Khamenei in a ceremony bringing together the reciters and memorizers of the holy Qur'an as well as Qur'anic scholars on Wednesday, marking the first day of the fasting month of Ramadan in Iran.
Pointing to certain efforts made to promote Western culture in other societies, Imam Khamenei assured adherence to the Western culture by the majority of the people across the world "does not constitute a model to follow this culture in an Islamic society."
"Qur'anic guidelines and criteria should be followed in an Islamic society," the Leader further underlined, adding that faith, common sense, and the sayings of Imams and prophets constitute Qur'anic criteria.
