‘Abrahamism and Iraq Cannot Be Separated’ — Movement Issues Landmark Declaration Against Iranian Interference
Sunni scholar Abu Musa Al-Iraqi, issues a sweeping theological and political statement defending Iraq’s identity as the ancient homeland of Abraham — and rejecting the Iranian regime’s campaign to control the land of the prophets through proxies, propaganda, and sectarian violence.
Key Points
- The Abrahamic Movement in Iraq — led by Sunni scholar Abu Musa Al-Iraqi with the participation of Global Abrahamic Movement founder Tom Wegner — issues a formal statement titled “Abrahamism and Iraq Cannot Be Separated.”
- The statement opens with the Quranic verse confirming Abraham as a nation unto himself (Surah Al-Nahl, 120) and grounds Iraq’s Abrahamic identity in scripture, history, and civilization.
- The Movement directly rejects the propaganda of Iranian-linked figures seeking to distort religious texts and destabilize Iraq through Revolutionary Guard-guided narratives.
- Five documented Iranian official statements and publications are cited as evidence of Tehran’s declared ambition to control Iraq as an imperial extension.
- The statement closes with a call to Abrahamic peace as the alternative to Iranian proxy domination — “Peace for the Middle East, Peace for all humanity.”
The Abrahamic Movement in Iraq, led by Sunni scholar Abu Musa Al-Iraqi with the participation of Tom Wegner, founder and CEO of the International Abrahamic Movement, has issued a landmark statement in direct response to disinformation being spread by Iranian-linked figures seeking to sow confusion about the movement’s theological foundations and Iraq’s sovereign Abrahamic identity.
The statement opens with a verse that frames everything that follows — and everything the movement stands for:
The statement’s theological foundation rests on a profound historical fact: Iraq is the homeland of the Prophet Abraham (Ibrahim Khalil Rahman) — whose house stands in Nasiriyah, Dhi Qar province. Abraham, the father of all the prophets and the founder of the three Abrahamic faiths, is mentioned 69 times in the Holy Quran across numerous surahs and verses. Iraq’s identity is therefore inseparable from the Abrahamic heritage that gave the world Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
The statement notes that Muslims bear witness to Abraham’s name in prayer five times daily — a living, constant bond that no political project can sever. Iraq, as the country of Ibrahim Khalil Rahman and the country of ancient civilizations, carries a spiritual weight and a civilizational responsibility that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s proxy project seeks to hijack and exploit.
We, as original Iraqis, are in our country — and from the outset of moral duty and religious commitment towards the nation of Abraham, peace be upon him, we speak.— Abu Musa Al-Iraqi, Abrahamic Movement in Iraq
The statement was issued in direct response to statements from Abdullah Al-Dakuq — described as a figure expelled from Bahrain and stripped of his Bahraini citizenship for supporting Iranian-backed terrorist groups, who now operates from Iran and Iraqi territory under the guidance of the Revolutionary Guard. The Movement charges that Al-Dakuq has been deployed to distort religious texts and spread disinformation about the Abrahamic Movement and its theological positions.
The statement’s response is unequivocal: “You are not welcome in Iraq except to be followed by misguided people who try to control their minds with false slogans and false narratives.”
Addressing his theological challenge directly, the Movement invokes the Quran’s own testimony to the unity of the Abrahamic faiths:
The Movement’s theological argument is precise: the Abrahamic heavenly religions — as confirmed in the Holy Quran — form one continuous tradition from Abraham through Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad. One of the six pillars of Islamic faith is belief in all the books and all the messengers, with no distinction between them. Abrahamism, therefore, is not a foreign concept imposed from outside — it is the Quran’s own framework.
The statement moves from theology to political reality — presenting a documented record of Iranian regime officials and publications explicitly declaring the ambition to control Iraq as an imperial extension of Persian-Iranian power.
Documented Iranian Declarations on Iraq — On the Record
The Movement argues that the militia reality Iraqis live daily — corruption, waste of public funds, destruction of economic and social systems, erosion of moral values, and the transformation of Iraq into a hub for drug and weapons smuggling — is the direct product of this Iranian project. The creation of a smuggling corridor between Syria and Lebanon, through which weapons are distributed globally, passes through Iranian-controlled territory in Iraq.
Iran wanted to build these projects in Iraq and the Middle East through its militias. She is the one carrying out terrorist acts to apply the so-called export of the Islamic Revolution — and all the peoples and countries of the Middle East are a living witness to these interventions.— Abrahamic Movement in Iraq, Official Statement
Against the backdrop of this Iranian project, the Abrahamic Movement in Iraq presents its own vision: a Middle East that chooses the path of Abraham over the path of the Revolutionary Guard. A region that, in the words of the statement, pursues “Abrahamic peace, which serves humanity and preserves the dignity of the human soul, which Allah Almighty commanded to preserve and honor.”
This vision is grounded not in political ideology but in Islamic jurisprudence itself — the Maqasid al-Shariah, the purposes of Islamic Law, which include the preservation and honoring of the soul as its central command. The statement argues that the construction of the earth, not the export of revolution through armed proxies, is the sound nature upon which humanity was created.
“The Abrahamic peace gathers us together.”
“Peace for the Middle East.”
“Peace for all humanity.”
