The message highlights the deep historical, cultural, and Islamic ties between the peoples of Iran and Pakistan and extends an official invitation for His Excellency to visit the Holy Shrine, meet with its Religious Custodian, and tour its religious, cultural, and academic institutions.
His Excellency Dr. Imran Ahmad Siddiqui
Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the Islamic Republic of Iran
Please accept our sincere congratulations on your appointment as Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the Islamic Republic of Iran. We pray to Almighty God to grant Your Excellency success, wisdom, and distinction in fulfilling your important mission and in further strengthening the fraternal ties between the two brotherly Muslim nations of Iran and Pakistan.
The relationship between the peoples of Iran and Pakistan extends far beyond geographical proximity. It is deeply rooted in a shared historical, cultural, and civilizational heritage, as well as in their common devotion to the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them). The Holy Shrine of Hazrat Abdol Azim al-Hasani (peace be upon him) in the historic city of Rey has always been a welcoming spiritual destination, graciously hosting devoted pilgrims from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
In light of the profound historical, cultural, and spiritual bonds that unite our two countries, we have the distinct honor of inviting Your Excellency to visit the Holy Shrine of Hazrat Abdol Azim al-Hasani (peace be upon him). During your visit, we would be privileged to arrange a meeting with the Religious Custodian of the Holy Shrine and to accompany you on a pilgrimage to the sacred mausoleums of Hazrat Abdol Azim al-Hasani, Hazrat Hamza ibn Musa al-Kazim, and Hazrat Tahir ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn (peace be upon them). The program will also include visits to the Shrine Museum, Library, the University of the Qur'an and Hadith, and other distinguished cultural and academic institutions affiliated with this blessed sanctuary.
We sincerely hope that this visit, inspired by our shared devotion to the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) and our common Islamic and cultural heritage, will further strengthen the cultural, spiritual, and friendly relations between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, while opening new avenues for enduring cooperation and mutual understanding.
