Referring to the fact that Imam Sadeq (AS) trained many students, the head of Iranian pilgrims said, "This year, after a 9-year hiatus in Umrah, pilgrims from the Islamic Republic of Iran are present at the Baqi cemetery at the same time as the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Sadeq (AS)."

Hojjat al-Islam Navvab further emphasized the need for empathy and solidarity among the Hajj pilgrims, and said, "Enemies are constantly looking for division and discord among the Muslim ummah and do not destroy the unity of Muslims, so the Islamic ummah should be empathetic and maintain unity to neutralize the conspiracies of enemies."

Now we see that even students in western societies supporting the oppressed people of Gaza have come to the scene."
