Iran's President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (R) and Comoran President, Ahmed Abdallah
Sambi
Comoros says Iran can set a good example for those African nations which are
seeking to safeguard their sovereignty.
"Comoros wants Iran to come to her assistance and strengthen self-belief in
the country so it can go along the path to improvement," Comoro's President,
Ahmed Abdallah Sambi said on Wednesday in a meeting with his Iranian
counterpart, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
He added that even with billions of dollars of assets frozen by Washington
following Iran's Islamic Revolution in 1979, the Islamic Republic could manage
to advance and represent itself as a shining example for world nations.
"A few months ago, the news of Iran sending a satellite into orbit hit
headlines worldwide and won great acclaim. The entire Iranian achievements are
anchored in attempts made by both the Iranian nation and authorities," the
Comoran leader added.
For his part, President Ahmadinejad said, "Colonial powers over hundreds of
years plundered African nations and deprived them of their wealth through
coercion and deception in order to retard such nations."
He added that bullying powers sought to build their own countries with African
assets.
President Ahmadinejad meanwhile expressed Tehran's support for Comoros and
voiced Iran's preparedness to transfer its expertise in various scopes to the
African state.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom
(i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue
with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy
Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in
His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites
(men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I
am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if
Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of
camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever
calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who
follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
