This meeting has been held at a crucial time during which we discuss challenges facing the Islamic awakening and countering terrorism and Takfiris. Terrorism is one of the most obvious challenges in the way of Islamic awakening. The enemies are trying to counter Islamic awakening by fueling differences among Muslims.

Over the past few years, Iran has hosted several international conferences on the Islamic Awakening including “Islamic Awakening and Youth,” “Women and the Islamic Awakening” and “Muslim University Professors and Islamic Awakening”.

Experts and scholars believe the Islamic revolution of Iran back in 1979 was the main source of inspiration for the current wave of Islamic awakening across the region.

The Islamic Awakening movement, which started in 2011 in Tunisia, has swept across the Middle East and North Africa including Egypt, Bahrain and Yemen.
