The conference has been held annually here since 5 years ago by an organization named `Islamic Unity Forum` (IUF).
The slogan of the 4-day conference is `need for change to awaken umma`.
A number of speakers, in the first day of the conference, called Islamic Revolution of Iran as an `August uprising under leadership of late Imam Khomeini` which could shake western world and the Zionists and said that its effects can be seen in the Islamic countries.
Islamic scholars from different Islamic countries participated in the conference and many of them delivered speeches.
Hojatoleslam Mohsen Araki, who is among founders of the IUF, by referring to the lost magnificence of Muslims and their lag in scientific, economic and social fields in the past centuries, said that the most horrible manifestation of such weakness is presence of the Zionist regime in the Palestine territory.
He said the only solution for all Islamic world problems is to appeal to Quran.
Araki criticized US and NATO military interference in Muslim people uprisings in the Arab countries of the region and added that alien powers have no right to impose any kind of government to people of the region and it is the right of these people to choose their own type of government.
Other speakers in the conference also underlined necessity of Islamic unity, especially in the current sensitive situation.
