The Necessity of Support for Iran by Islamic Countries

The Islamic Republic of Iran serves as a defensive frontline, a security shield, and in essence, a protective stronghold for all its neighboring countries.

According to Taghrib News Agency, Hojjat al‑Islam Seyyed Hosseini Mazari, head of Afghanistan’s Tebyan Cultural Foundation, wrote in a commentary titled “What do Iran’s issues have to do with non‑Iranians, and why should they feel concerned or involved?”:

What connection do Iran’s affairs have with non‑Iranians, and why should Afghan citizens—despite the vast challenges facing their own country, nation, and government—feel compelled to address Iran‑related issues or spend their time and resources defending this Islamic nation?
The answer is clear. Beyond the fact that Imam Khamenei is the religious authority and the Guardian Jurist of our era—whose obedience and support, according to the rich and contemporary jurisprudence of Twelver Shiism, is obligatory-
Beyond the fact that Iran’s leadership, government, and noble nation have consistently stood against global arrogance and supported the oppressed and the mujahideen—evident in their resistance against the United States and the Zionist regime on regional and global scales, and their unwavering backing of the Palestinian resistance, especially in Gaza, as well as in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and across the Islamic world—
Beyond the fact that since the beginning of the Afghan jihad, Iran has provided comprehensive and serious support to our country, our people, our fighters, and our refugees—
Beyond the fact that millions of our migrants currently benefit from Iran’s stability and security—
And beyond the fact that Iran is our neighbor, and its peace, stability, and nationwide security directly benefit the people of Afghanistan, the region, and the world—
The Islamic Republic of Iran is the defensive trench and security barrier for all neighboring countries—especially Afghanistan—and even for the broader region and the world. Should Iran, God forbid, collapse, Afghanistan would suffer severe damage and become the first victim. Other neighboring states, the Persian Gulf countries, Egypt, and others would quickly fall apart. Regional powers such as China and Russia would not only lose their stability but also become defenseless in the face of U.S. and NATO conspiracies, executed with the help of the child‑killing Israeli regime. Even freedom‑seeking humanity worldwide would face mass destruction, the annihilation of their infrastructures, and the collapse of the global order. Western‑Hebrew imperialism would eliminate its opponents and enslave the rest.
Therefore, not only are the people of Afghanistan obliged to support Iran’s leadership, government, and nation—so that they may stand firmly against the enemies of Islam, defeat them, and strengthen the power and dignity of the Islamic system and the Iranian nation—but every individual, movement, nation, and Islamic government is religiously and morally responsible to safeguard their own natural life and political, social, cultural, and economic security by seriously supporting the Leader of the Revolution, the government, and the great nation of Islamic Iran in all fields, at all times, and in all places.
