Tehran (IP) - Iranian MPs condemned the US Treasury Department's sanctioning of al-Mustafa International University.

Iran Press/Iran News: During Sunday's open session of the Iranian parliament, MPs stressed in a statement that opponents of the transcendence of humanity have once again revealed their true face.

"Once again, anti-scientists and opponents of the transcendence of humanity revealed their true faces. This time, they targeted the great Al-Mustafa International University, one of the most prestigious international educational institutions concerned with disseminating science and spirituality in the world," the statement read.

"This action is undoubtedly a sign of the helplessness and despair of the arrogant US government in the face of the Iranian nation's scientific and cultural progress," it added.

"We, the representatives of the Iranian nation and the revolutionary parliament, strongly condemn the ignorant, immoral, illegitimate act which is contrary to all international standards to sanction this international scientific center, which puts the slogan of justice, spirituality, and rationality at the forefront of its activities. We declare firm support for this glorious institution," the Iranian representatives stressed.

Al-Mustafa International University is a religious and Islamic university established to expand and introduce Islamic and religious teachings in the world through modern facilities and technologies.

It provides enthusiasts from all over the world with the opportunity of studying Islamic sciences and knowledge.
