Addressing a gathering of religious preachers active in Iran's mainly Sunni residing regions, he noted that religious preachers should do their best to bring the followers of various sects of Islam closer together.
Promotion of Islamic unity can develop and enhance the Muslims' position in the international scene dramatically, Ayatollah Makarem-Shirazi noted.
Iran has always attached crucial importance to paving the way for the enhancement of interaction and cooperation among the Muslim nations in a bid to strengthen Islamic unity throughout the world, and especially within the Islamic world.
In various occasions, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has asked the Muslim nations to unite against the arrogant powers, warning that gaps in the Muslim community will create an opportunity for the Zionist regime to implement its plots against them.
