Khamenei calls Gulf States for 'unity among Muslims' in social media statement
The message called for Muslim unity, cooperation and mutual defense, saying divisions among Muslims help their enemies.
- On Sunday, Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei urged Gulf rulers in a written message to identify their "real enemy," understand its plans, and confront it while calling for Muslim unity and mutual defense.
- Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Gulf Arab monarchies have viewed Iran's revolutionary ideology, anti-monarchic rhetoric, and regional influence as threats to their political systems, creating persistent regional distrust.
- Published for Islamic Unity Week marking Prophet Muhammad's birthday, Khamenei's message warned that divisions among Muslims "knowingly or unknowingly" help Islam's enemies and asked if "rogues without identity" would covet their lands if united.
- Tehran has struck military facilities and infrastructure in Gulf states during the ongoing conflict, underscoring deep friction between Iran and its neighbors despite Khamenei's unity appeal.
- Khamenei has not appeared publicly since being injured in airstrikes six months ago that killed his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and launched the war, raising questions about the current leader's capacity to advance regional diplomacy.
