🇮🇷 | Imam Sayyid Mujtaba Husayni Khamenei (H) in his statement on the occasion of the 40th day of the martyrdom of Imam Sayyid Ali Husayni Khamenei (r) and on issues related to the third imposed war on the Islamic Republic of Iran: (1/7)

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

Indeed, We have granted you a clear victory so that Allah may forgive for you what preceded of your sin and what will follow, and complete His favor upon you, and guide you to a straight path, and grant you a mighty help.

Forty days have passed since one of the greatest crimes of the enemies of Islam and Iran, and one of the heaviest public griefs in the history of this nation; the grief of the heart-wrenching martyrdom of the sublime leader of the Islamic Revolution, the father of the Iranian nation, the leader of the Islamic Ummah, and the guide of truth-seekers in the present era, the master of martyrs of Iran and the Resistance Front, the great Khamenei, may Allah sanctify his pure soul.

For forty days, the elevated soul of our martyred leader has been a guest in the divine proximity of Allah, attending the banquet of the saints, the truthful, and the martyrs, while simultaneously or thereafter, a large number of companions, commanders, Islamic fighters, and oppressed compatriots—from newborns to the elderly—have attained this immense blessing.

For forty nights and days, Allah the Exalted has called the leader of this Ummah to His covenant; yet this time, unlike what happened in the era of the Musa Kaleem Allah, the companions of the martyred leader and his Ummah were sent to uphold justice and confront falsehood. They stood like steadfast mountains against the Samiri and his calf, and descended like molten fire upon the transgressors and Pharaohs.

For forty continuous days, the arrogant powers of the world have removed their deceptive and false masks, revealing the ugly and satanic face of killing and oppression, aggression and lies, tyranny and infanticide, despotism and corruption.

Yet in response, for forty nights and days, the proud children of the great Khomeini and the dear Khamenei, martyred and followers of pure Muhammadan Islam (peace be upon him and his family), have been present with remarkable dedication and courage in the fields, streets, and battlegrounds, and despite the blows and damages of the brutal enemy attack, they have turned the third imposed war into a scene of a third sacred defense epic. The conscious and vigilant nation of Iran has shown that although it mourns the great separation from its martyred leader, by following the direct heirs of Husayn’s Ashura, it has turned this grief into an epic and mourning into a rallying cry. All this has astonished the heavily armed enemy and drawn the admiration of the free people of the world. This time, the ignorance and foolishness of the arrogant led to Esfand 1404 becoming the beginning of a new era of the rise of Iran and the Islamic Revolution, and the flag of Islamic Iran being raised not only across the geographical territory of our country but in the hearts of truth-seekers around the world.

Qualities and Arts of the Martyred Leader

This occasion provides a good opportunity to briefly introduce the sublime leader. We speak of a man who, despite his fame, was not fully recognized. Everyone knows that our martyred leader was a time-conscious and insightful jurist, an indefatigable struggler, firm and steadfast as a mountain, a knowledgeable and God-fearing scholar, devoted to remembrance, night prayers, and supplication to the Lord, and seeking intercession from the pure and infallible, and deeply believing in Allah’s promises. Among his other qualities were patriotism and persistent efforts for the greater independence of Iran, along with a strong emphasis on unity of word and national cohesion. He spent his life striving for the establishment, stability, and survival of the Islamic system, while considering the Islamic Republic meaningless without its people. Alongside his strength and firmness, he possessed considerable subtlety in thought and perspective. He paid special attention to the capacities of the country, especially its youth, valued science, technology, and progress, and held the families of martyrs, veterans, and devoted ones in high regard. He had extensive and accumulated experiences in various fields, sometimes spanning several decades, and many other qualities that make a long list.

In recent days, some media repeatedly speak of his art, appreciation of art, and cultivation of the arts. While this aspect alone can give great value to a person’s character and was indeed present in our dear leader at the highest level, compared to his other existential elements and merits, it appears small. Personally, I am aware of multiple arts of his:

One great art of his, less often noticed, was the art of educating and shaping society through forming the thoughts, spirits, and emotions of the vast masses and social groups.

Another art of his was the purposeful institution-building, which he undertook especially in the early years of his leadership with a long-term vision.

Another art of his was strengthening the country’s military structure, the positive effects of which the Iranian nation benefited from during the two recent imposed wars.

Also, the power of creativity and innovation in various dimensions, whether scientific, strategic, or policymaking, was among his other arts, a glimpse of which is reflected in the formulation of the general policies of the system. Likewise, the ability to create meanings through timely use of words and original combinations, each generating and carrying a multitude of meanings and forming the public discourse, was another of his arts. Among these was an art that arose from the refinement of his lofty spirit through hardships, trials, and tribulations, and due to his patience and steadfastness in the path of truth: the art of foreseeing distant events, for indeed the believer sees by the light of Allah. Other arts existed as well, which cannot be fully enumerated in this brief account.

All of these arts and merits had no source other than the special graces of Allah and the special attention of our master and his pure forebears, peace be upon them all. Perhaps what drew these graces and attentions toward him can be summarized in his tireless and sincere struggle for the exaltation of the word of truth. More specifically, apart from the hardships of fighting the treacherous Pahlavi regime, he benefited greatly from another special opportunity in the course of fulfilling his duty, which most people are usually unaware of. It was decreed that the young Sayyid, eager for knowledge and also seeking action, at a time when his honorable father was facing blindness, after years of studying under high-ranking scholars, abandoned all apparent prospects of scientific and future-building advancement in Qom and, trusting in Allah’s grace, devoted himself to his father. The divine favor that followed this sacrifice appeared in such a way that suddenly Sayyid Ali Khamenei, before the age of thirty, rose like a sun from Khorasan and soon became considered one of the intellectual and revolutionary pillars, while simultaneously making remarkable progress in conventional sciences; so much so that in the 1970s, the SAVAK referred to him as the “Khomeini of Khorasan.” It must be emphasized that this inner and outward progression of the great leader continued in subsequent periods.

Now, as a lesson from the behavior of great figures, especially such a personality, it is very appropriate to adopt the attitude of sincere benevolence and mutual support, a quality which, combined with attention to the vast mercy of Allah, creates a significant distinction between those who stand under the banner of truth and those who circle around the banner of falsehood. Certainly, pursuing such an attitude opens the doors of heaven and brings down all kinds of divine and unseen assistance, from the descent of rain of mercy to triumph over the enemy and even scientific and technological advancement.

These days, it is repeatedly heard that various groups of dear people rightly and with longing recall that unique era, and gradually more aspects of the luminous essence of his exalted personality are revealed. Likewise, emulating certain actions of that esteemed figure is gradually becoming widespread; for instance, our dear people learned lessons from his clenched fist at the time of martyrdom, and now that same clenched fist has become, for some, a shared symbol of belief. In this way, it is once again proven that the influence of a martyr surpasses that of the living individual, and his resonant voice in calling for monotheism, truth-seeking, and the fight against oppression and corruption, is louder and his message more impactful than during his lifetime. Furthermore, the heartfelt wish of this great martyr that of the happiness of this nation and other Muslim nations has moved closer to reality.

Victory of the Heroic Nation of Iran in the Third Imposed War

Brothers and sisters, fellow countrymen! Today, and up to this point in the third sacred defense epic, it can be said with certainty that you, the heroic nation of Iran, have been the definite victors of this field.

Today, the emergence of the Islamic Republic as a great power and the exposure of the arrogance of the oppressors to weakness before the eyes of all is evident. This is undoubtedly a divine blessing, granted through the blood of our martyred leader, other martyrs wrapped in blood, oppressed compatriots, and the fallen flowers of the Minaab School—Shajra Tayyaba, and through the supplications and entreaties of all the people to the Lord, the devoted presence of the people in fields, neighborhoods, and mosques, and the selfless and sincere sacrifices of the brave fighters of Islam in the IRGC, the Army, the Law Enforcement, the unknown soldiers, and the border guards. Like any blessing, this favor must be acknowledged and appreciated so that it may endure and grow: “If you are grateful, I will surely increase you.” The practical gratitude for this blessing is relentless effort to achieve a strong Iran.

Importance of the Continuity of People’s Presence

What is currently essential for achieving this strategic goal and the martyr leader’s vision is the continuous presence of our dear people, just as they have done over the past forty days. This presence is a key pillar of the status in which a powerful Iran is now established.

Therefore, it should not be assumed that the presence in the streets is unnecessary simply because of announcements based on negotiations with the enemy. Rather, even if, hypothetically, a period of silence on the military battlefield has necessarily arrived, the duty of every individual who has the ability to be present in fields, neighborhoods, and mosques becomes heavier than before. Certainly, your cries in the fields are effective as a result of negotiations; likewise, the astonishingly large and growing millions-strong campaign of self-sacrifice for Iran is also among the influential factors in this arena. By the will of Allah, through these roles and their continuity, the horizon before the Iranian nation promises a glorious, radiant era full of dignity, pride, and prosperity.

When our martyred leader assumed leadership, the Islamic Republic was like a young sapling that had received multiple wounds from the enemies of Islam and Iran, yet had endured them all. But after nearly thirty-seven years, when he stepped down from the seat of leadership of the Ummah, he left behind a blessed tree whose roots were firm and whose branches cast shade over important parts of the region and the world. The approach of achieving “a stronger Iran” passes through unity among the various segments of society, which he repeatedly emphasized. A significant glimpse of this unity was realized in these forty days: hearts of the people drew closer, the divisions between different social groups began to melt, everyone gathered under the banner of the homeland, and day by day both the number and the quality of this gathering increase. Many who have not yet achieved such presence are, in their hearts, aligned and in agreement with the people present in the fields.

These days, many are experiencing a civilizational perspective by looking toward distant horizons and creating for themselves an image that is not imaginary but based on present and future realities. This is a quality that, until recently, was seen only among a few, with the martyred leader at their head. In this way, any observer can perceive the rapid and miraculous growth of this nation, and it is no coincidence that in these days the renowned sage and high-ranking jurist, when speaking to you about this status, is often choked by emotion, unable to speak.

Points Regarding Southern Neighbors, Compensation for Damages, and Blood Price of the Martyrs

In this same context, I say to Iran’s southern neighbors that you are witnessing a miracle. Therefore, see it correctly, understand it properly, stand in the right place, and be wary of the false promises of the suspicious devils. We are still awaiting an appropriate reaction from you so that we may show you brotherhood and goodwill. This will not happen except through your turning away from the arrogant powers, who never miss an opportunity to humiliate and exploit you. Everyone should know that, by the will of Allah, we will certainly not leave unpunished the malicious aggressors who attacked our country. We will definitely demand compensation for every inflicted damage, the blood price of martyrs, and the reparations for the wounded veterans of this war, and we will certainly take the management of the Strait of Hormuz to a new level. We do not seek war and have never sought it, but under no circumstances will we relinquish our legitimate rights, and in this regard we consider the entire Resistance Front as a unified whole.

Recommendations to All Citizens

At this stage, until we reach what rightfully belongs to us, first, all members of the nation should strive to consider one another so that the pressures arising from the inevitable shortages of any war affect various social groups as little as possible. These shortages, which in some cases are much greater on the opposing side, have, thanks to the efforts of your brothers and sisters in the government and other institutions, been managed to a considerable extent.

Second, it is necessary to protect our ears, which are the windows of the mind and heart, against media supported by the enemy or aligned with it. Certainly, those media are not well-wishers of the country and the Iranian nation, and this has been proven repeatedly. Therefore, we should either avoid encountering and using them entirely or, at the very least, treat everything they present with great suspicion.

Third, although the nation, with the end of the official mourning period for its great martyred leader, removes the garments of grief, it keeps alive in spirit and heart a firm determination to avenge the pure blood of him and all the martyrs of the second and third imposed wars and remains constantly vigilant to ensure that this is fulfilled.

In conclusion, I address our master [referring to Imam Mahdi (A)], may Allah hasten his reappearance, that with faith in Allah the Exalted, seeking intercession from the infallible Imams, peace be upon them, and following the example of our martyred leader, we have stood under your banner and against the front of disbelief and arrogance. Along this path, we have offered precious martyrs from various classes for the honor and independence of the country and for the advancement of Islam and the Islamic Revolution, and we have also suffered other losses. Now, with all our being, we rely on your special prayers for decisive triumph over the enemy, both in the arena of negotiations and on the battlefield, and we hope that very soon, both we and our enemies will witness its miraculous effect, insha’Allah.

Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.

—Sayyid Mujtaba Husayni Khamenei

🇮🇷 | IRGC:

In recent hours, various news agencies have reported incidents concerning drone and missile attacks on installations in some countries along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf.

It is hereby stated that the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, during the ceasefire hours up to this moment, have not launched any projectiles toward any country whatsoever.

If the reported news by media outlets is accurate, then without a doubt it is the work of the Zionist enemy or the United States.

The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, if they strike any target, will do so with full transparency and will officially announce it in a formal statement. Any action not mentioned in official statements of the Islamic Republic of Iran has no connection to us.
