🇮🇷 | Organization of Basij of the Oppressed – Allegiance to the Wilayah:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

The radiant truth of Imamate and Wilayah in the present era manifested its brilliance and legitimacy when Imam Khomeini (may Allah sanctify his soul) and thereafter, our martyred Imam Khamenei, with the support of the people after centuries, established and consolidated the Islamic system, ensuring political independence and progress in the land of Iran. The role and position of leadership and the Guardianship of the Jurist in national cohesion and unity, especially in critical and historic moments, and in guiding the country and people through hardships, wars, and plots imposed by enemies, is a reality that has been visible to the world and under global judgment.

This is why Imam Khomeini said: Support the Guardianship of the Jurist so that no harm comes to your country. The turbulent 37‑year period of leadership of the Leader of the Ummah, Imam and martyred Leader, Imam Khamenei, demonstrates clearly that Imamate and leadership are the pillar and firm column of the Islamic system. The conscious and wise devotion of the Iranian nation and the Islamic Ummah to the martyred Imam, both during his leadership and in recent days, has made evident that the bond between Imam and Ummah in Islamic society stems from religious knowledge and revolutionary insight, deeply embedded in all members of society. Now, the Islamic Revolution and the great nation of Iran are in another sensitive and historic period, and with the martyrdom of the Imam and Leader, the Assembly of Experts, these scholars aware of the times, introduced the new Leader of the Revolution, a leader truly among the best nurtured in the school of the Imams of the Revolution. Today, the path is the same, the responsibility is the same, and the duty is the same as that demonstrated during the eras of Imam Khomeini and Imam Khamenei, which we endured with steadfastness and resistance. Today as well, absolute obedience to the Guardian Jurist is a duty upon all the Iranian nation, and, insha’Allah, this unbreakable bond between Imam and Ummah will be strengthened more than ever. Basij and the Basijis declare allegiance from the depths of heart and soul to our Leader and Guide, Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Husayni Khamenei, and declare that in service to the honorable nation of Islamic Iran and in defense of the lofty ideals of the Islamic Revolution, especially a powerful Iran, they are in complete obedience and ready to act on command.

🏴 | Martyrdom of Imam Ali (A)

Today, we enter the nights of the martyrdom of the best of mankind after his master, Prophet Muhammad (S), the one whom Allah honored the most—Imam Ali (A).

On the dawn of 19th Ramadan, 40 Hijri, Imam Ali (A) was struck down in brutal treachery by a tyrant. According to the hadith of Prophet Muhammad (S), “The most wretched of your time will be the one who kills you, O Ali, and dyes your beard with your own blood.”

Imam Ali (A) was martyred by the Kharijite Ibn Muljam, but behind him were other hidden figures whose identities can be uncovered through careful research. The assassination of Imam Ali (A) was not merely the act of a single extremist but was linked to a larger conspiracy involving individuals with deep political and ideological motivations.

According to Ibn Sa’d, Abd al-Rahman ibn Muljam belonged to the Murad tribe, which was allied with the Banu Jabbala of the Kindah tribe (the tribe of Ash’ath ibn Qays) [Tabaqat al-Kubra, vol. 3, p. 35]. Some have claimed that he witnessed the pre-Islamic era and converted to Islam during the time of Caliph Umar [Al-I’lam by Zarkali, vol. 3, p. 339; Al-Isabah, vol. 5, p. 85]. He participated in the conquest of Egypt and settled there [Tarikh al-Islam, vol. 2, p. 373].

When Amr ibn al-As was appointed as the governor of Egypt by the second caliph [Al-Isti’ab, vol. 3, p. 1187], he received a letter instructing him to allocate a vast piece of government land near the mosque for Ibn Muljam and to appoint him as a teacher of the Qur’an and jurisprudence in Egypt. Amr ibn al-As made Ibn Muljam one of his close associates [Al-Ansab, vol. 3, pp. 25-26]. Ibn Muljam had a mosque in Egypt [Same source] and frequently mingled with the Egyptian elites [Tarikh al-Islam, vol. 2, p. 373; Al-Ansab, vol. 3, pp. 25-26]. Some also claim that he was among the ascetics and worshippers of Egypt and had learned the Qur’an from Mu’adh ibn Jabal.

These reports indicate that Ibn Muljam was closely connected to the leaders of the hypocrite faction. Just as Ka’b al-Ahbar and Zayd ibn Thabit, both of Jewish background, were promoted as commentators of the Qur’an and jurists, Ibn Muljam was similarly introduced in Egypt as an exegete, a Qur’an teacher, and a jurist.

On the other hand, the favor he received from the second caliph is noteworthy. Ibn Muljam benefited from government lands and privileges granted by both the caliph and Amr ibn al-As. He had close ties with the Egyptian nobility, yet he was simultaneously portrayed as an ascetic and devout worshipper. It seems that this perception of Ibn Muljam’s piety was a subjective interpretation by some historians, who, upon recognizing his affiliation with the Kharijites—most of whom were known for their outward displays of piety—automatically attributed this quality to him as well. Otherwise, other reports depict him as a man of wealth and luxury, with his riches being directly linked to the rule of Amr ibn al-As.
