“The religious authorities have to settle the crisis because the politicians failed to settle it and they keep it for their electoral propaganda without realizing its consequences,” he added.

Mohammadi added that “the Fatwa, in its pure and obviously form, in this time is a painful blow to advocates of sectarian strife who are trying to drag the country into a dangerous slider.”
