Mohsen Qaraati, head of the Prayer Establishment Headquarters, says the presence of teenagers in protests means teachers have not been successful.
According to Tasnim, Mohsen Qaraati, head of the Prayer Establishment Headquarters in Iran, commented on teenagers participating in the current protests, saying that in the recent unrest, we witnessed the presence of some teenagers, meaning a generation that has been educated by teachers of the Islamic Republic, and this shows that some of our teachers have not been successful in properly educating students.
On December 19, Qaraati told student teachers at Farhangian University in Kerman that teachers should raise children to be prayerful and understand that a diploma and a bachelor’s degree are useless if they neglect prayer.
In the latest statistics from the Norway-based Iran Human Rights organization, of at least 469 protesters killed in the current protests in Iran, at least 63 were under 18 years old, and 9 of these children were girls.
