In the Iraqi political scene, which is full of challenges and fluctuations, the name of Sheikh Qais Khazali stands out as one of the influential national figures who was able to combine a political role, military leadership, and enlightened thought. We talk about him not because he is a political or military leader, but because he is the integrated model that combines wisdom and deep awareness of the challenges facing Iraq.
His Eminence is characterized by a clear humanity that is evident in his dealings, starting with his brothers in the movement, and with political and social crises. He works to build bridges of communication between the different spectrums based on national interest. This humanity, based on a deep understanding of Iraqi society and its diversity, made him a safety valve during many critical stages that the country went through.
His role as a seasoned military leader emerged during the battles against terrorism, especially after the issuance of the fatwa of sufficient jihad from the supreme authority in Najaf al-Ashraf. He played a major role in organizing military efforts to confront the threat of the terrorist organization ISIS, as he led a large number of battles with great skill and courage, which made him one of the main pillars in liberating Iraqi lands, after he and his comrades had many rounds against the American occupation, and defending the shrine of Sayyida Zainab (peace be upon her) against the Takfiri gangs, and the Palestinian cause was always in his sights.
Despite the political and sectarian divisions in Iraq, Khazali was one of the most prominent figures who contributed to strengthening political rapprochement between the various factions. Through his balanced approach, he was able to be a bridge of communication between the political parties, rejecting all forms of fanaticism, and calling for a comprehensive national vision that places the interests of Iraq above all considerations.
He was known for his brave defense of the sect without fanaticism or exclusion. He believed that Iraq’s strength lies in its unity and diversity, and that defending religious principles does not conflict with building a just state that includes everyone.
In addition to his political and military role, His Eminence carries a bright thought that reflects a deep awareness of the Iraqi reality and its requirements. He calls for positive change that serves the people and ensures their stability and security.
Al-Khazali remains an example of a leader who combines thought and action, politics and the field. His political and military legacy proves that he is a statesman and a field commander par excellence, who was able to play a pivotal role in protecting Iraq from dangers, strengthening its unity, and working for its future.
Considering the challenges facing Iraq today, Sheikh Qais Khazali remains a symbol of hope and positive change. His vision is not limited to confronting the current crises but extends to building a strong and independent Iraq that depends on the unity of its people and the cohesion of its components.
Perhaps what distinguishes him most is his deep awareness of Iraq’s need for wise leadership that upholds national values and develops strategic plans to confront economic, political and social crises.
His message stems from his belief that Iraq can only be built through the combined efforts of all its people, far from conflicts and divisions. His balanced political discourse and his effective role in bringing viewpoints closer together made him an exceptional figure who is unanimously agreed upon by various factions, despite ideological and political differences.
(The Sheikh) is not just a passing figure in the history of Iraq, but rather an inspiring model for future generations. He is the leader who succeeded in overcoming storms and faced the most difficult circumstances with courage and patience, confirming that Iraq needs men who work hard and sincerely for a better future.
Ultimately, Sheikh Khazali remains the image of a “comprehensive leader” who combines human values, political wisdom, and military might. He is the statesman Iraq can count on in times of crisis, and a leader who has proven that true patriotism requires tireless work for the good of all. His role will remain an inspiration to all who seek justice and stability in a country that deserves better.
