Sadrist movement leader Muqtada al-Sadr warned the local government in Najaf on Friday against overlooking violations in the province, stressing that he would not stand by silently in the event of negligence.
In a statement, al-Sadr said those who show disrespect toward Najaf and its reputation would not receive his respect in return, emphasizing that his position on the matter was definitive.
Al-Sadr also called on traders across Iraq to conduct their business honestly, seek lawful earnings, and avoid fraud, deception, manipulation, and price hikes.
He further urged traders to strengthen their religious knowledge and repent for their mistakes, describing these steps as part of the reform project he promotes under the slogan “Shلع Qala’,” even if some claim an affiliation with the al-Sadr famil
