Mamusta Mahmoudi stated that journalists are the “wakeful eyes of society.” In today’s turbulent world, he noted that their mission goes beyond mere reporting; it is about guiding public opinion toward truth, justice, and solidarity.

He highlighted that Taghrib News Agency not only excels in accurate and committed reporting but also, by focusing on the discourse of Islamic unity, has managed to bring the voice of unity to the world. He added that this media outlet, by avoiding extremism and divisiveness, has created a platform for constructive dialogue among different denominations.

Mahmoudi further explained that while the enemies of Islam seek every opportunity to create divisions, news agencies like Taghrib act as guardians of unity. He believes they do this by relying on logic, rationality, and Quranic teachings. These media outlets are seen as a committed and unifying model for media in both Iran and the broader Islamic world.

He also pointed out the role of the World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought, stating that by supporting media like Taghrib News Agency, the forum has successfully brought the discourse of unity from the elite level to the general public. He added that this institution fosters solidarity among followers of different denominations through its meetings, conferences, and the production of scientific and cultural content.

In conclusion, Mamusta Mahmoudi honored the efforts of journalists in the field of rapprochement. He reminded that Journalist’s Day is an opportunity to re-examine the mission of the media in the Islamic world, where journalists don’t just write news but “build bridges between hearts.” He expressed hope that this path will continue more powerfully with the support of unifying institutions.
