🇵🇸 | Revisiting | Quds Day: The Voice of the Islamic World

For 44 years, Resistance has stood firm under the leadership of Imam Khamenei.

Excerpts from Imam Khamenei’s (h) speeches on Quds Day over the years | #QudsDay2025

🔹 “Quds Day is very important. It is not just about defending an oppressed nation; rather, through this act, we are fighting against an oppressive and arrogant political system. Today, defending Palestine means defending the truth—a truth far broader than just the Palestinian issue. Fighting the Zionist regime today is a fight against global arrogance and the system of domination.” (June 21, 2017)

🔸 “Quds Day is one of the most important and decisive days. For many years, there has been an effort to erase the issue of Quds from memory. Quds Day is like an arrow shot into the heart of this conspiracy—a movement to neutralize the sinister plot orchestrated by global arrogance, Zionism, and their allies to completely forget the Palestinian cause.” (January 8, 1999)

🔹 “The last Friday of Ramadan has long been recognized as International Quds Day by the Imam of the Ummah and the Islamic Republic. Among the nations of the Islamic world, this day has become firmly established as an opportunity for those who care about Palestine and for the passionate hearts of young Muslims to support and defend the Palestinian people.” (April 28, 1989)

🔸 “Quds Day is one of the most outstanding legacies of our dear Imam. It symbolizes the deep connection of our revolution and our nation to the cause of Al-Quds and Palestine. Thanks to Quds Day, we have managed to keep this name alive across the world every year.” (September 11, 2009)

🔹 “The movement initiated by our great Imam on Quds Day continues to grow stronger and more fervent each year. This is not just a march; it is the lifeblood of the Islamic Ummah, ensuring that, despite efforts to erase the Palestinian cause, it remains alive and vibrant.” (August 19, 2012)

🔸 “Quds Day is not just for Iran; it is the day of the Islamic World. On this day, Muslims express their collective will to confront the deceptions of the U.S. and Israel in occupied and bleeding Palestine. However, our nation has led the way in this regard.” (November 26, 2003)

🔹 “Quds Day is, in the truest sense, an international Islamic day.” (August 24, 2011)

🔸 “Quds Day is not just about Palestine; it is about the entire Islamic Ummah. It is the loud cry of Muslims against the deadly cancer of Zionism, which has been imposed on the Islamic world by occupying aggressors and imperialist powers.” (September 20, 2009)

🔹 “Quds Day is the great test for Muslim nations.” (October 21, 2005)

🔸 “Quds Day is a true manifestation of the unity and cohesion of the Islamic world.” (October 1, 2008)

🔹 “Muslim solidarity centered on Al-Quds is a nightmare for the Zionist enemy and its American and European supporters.” (May 7, 2021)

🔸 “If we had unity today and if we relied on the spiritual power of Islam, the enemy would not be able to so openly oppress the Palestinian people in their own homeland.” (December 27, 2000)

🔹 “The issue of Quds is the focal point where the oppressed of the world, inspired by faith and trust in God, must break the oppressive rule of global arrogance—headed by American imperialism and its Zionist puppets. The struggle for Quds is a decisive matter for our nation and the entire Muslim Ummah.” (August 8, 1980)

🔸 “Quds Day is a clear sign of the battle between truth and falsehood, between justice and oppression.” (September 20, 2009)

🔹 “The issue of Quds will never die. The Palestinian cause and the sanctity of Al-Quds are matters that the Islamic world can never forget. Today, the Palestinian people are standing firm, and the hearts of Muslims are filled with honor and devotion to the sacred land of Quds and all of Palestine. The Islamic world must never abandon Palestine.” (November 4, 2005)

🔸 “On Quds Day, the Iranian nation will show how deeply committed they are to Palestine… The Iranian nation believes in defending the oppressed: ‘Be an enemy of the oppressor and a helper of the oppressed.’ This is the will of the Iranian people, and it will be demonstrated once again, God willing.” (July 23, 2014)

🔹 “God willing, this year as well, in response to the ruthless conspiracies against the Palestinian nation, Quds Day will serve as a powerful slap against the enemies of Palestine and the foes of the Islamic world.” (January 8, 1999)

🇵🇸 | Quds Day is a significant test for Muslim nations. It is the day when Muslim nations, through their official representatives, express their views to the world. This year, Quds Day holds even greater importance—both because of the Gaza incident, as the Zionists’ withdrawal from Gaza was undoubtedly a major defeat for them, and because of the ongoing conspiracy by the Americans, Zionists, and some of their allies to compensate for that defeat. This conspiracy involves normalizing relations with the Zionist regime among certain Islamic and regional states, a move that must not be tolerated.

Islamic states, under various pretexts and to appease America, should not normalize their ties with this treacherous, oppressive, and usurping regime—a regime that poses a threat to the entire region and all nations and states. For the sake of America, they should not present a friendly face to this regime, as such an act is disgraceful. The disgrace lies in the fact that those engaging in normalization initially attempt to conceal it, proving that it is inherently shameful. An ugly act should neither be committed nor hidden.

Today, as the world marks Quds Day, it is essential to take a stand. Join the rallies, raise your voice, and, if you cannot be physically present, at least participate online to show that you stand on the right side of history. Silence only emboldens the oppressors, but your presence—whether on the streets or in the digital space—sends a clear message that the cause of Palestine will never be forgotten.
