Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has stirred fresh debate on social media following a strongly worded message directed at Iran amid ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
In a Facebook post, Gumi outlined what he described as key points Iran must take seriously at this stage of the conflict. He warned that the current situation should not be mistaken for peace, but rather seen as a temporary pause in hostilities.
According to him, “This is halftime,” stressing that Iran must remain fully prepared for what he described as a potential “second round.” He cautioned against complacency, arguing that any sign of relaxation could leave the country vulnerable.
Gumi further expressed deep mistrust toward the United States, accusing it of failing to honor agreements. He described the U.S. as “treacherous and lawless,” claiming it does not respect obligations, a statement that reflects longstanding criticisms from some quarters regarding America’s foreign policy in the region.
In addition to his warning about the United States, the cleric also pointed fingers at Israel. He alleged that Israel would not relent in undermining any truce, adding that actions on the ground suggest ongoing aggression. Referencing reported strikes in Beirut, Gumi argued that such developments reinforce his belief that the ceasefire remains fragile and unreliable.
Another major highlight of his message was his call for Iran to reassess its stance on nuclear weapons. Gumi suggested that the existing religious ruling, or fatwa, against nuclear arms should be reviewed immediately in light of current realities. This position is particularly controversial, given Iran’s long-standing official stance against the development of nuclear weapons.
His comments come at a time when tensions in the Middle East continue to attract global attention, with diplomatic efforts ongoing but uncertainty still looming. While some stakeholders continue to push for de-escalation and dialogue, others remain skeptical about the durability of any agreement reached…..See More
