Welcome to the Islamic Pulse Talk Show.
In this episode we\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'re talking about the uprising of the people of the holy city of Qom, which occurred on the 19th of Dey 1356 Solar-Hijri Calendar, which was January 9, 1978 Gregorian calendar.
Yet, what exactly happened on the 19th of Dey, a day which is commemorated annually in the Islamic Republic of Iran, and why is it so important?
What are just a few of the well-known traditions regarding the holy city of Qom?
In what era of Islamic history was the holy city of Qom already a bastion of the Shia world and the followers of the Ahlul Bayt (A)?
What are some less well-known traditions regarding the holy city of Qom?
What role does lady Fatima Masuma (A) play, in making the city of Qom, a city of revolution?
According the Imam Ja\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'far al-Sadiq (A), Qom is whose Haram and holy sanctuary?
What are some traditions narrated to us from Imam Ja\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'far al-Sadiq (A), Imam Ali al-Redha (A), Imam Muhammad al-Jawad (A), and Imam Musa al-Kadhim (A), that are related to our overall discussion?
What is one potential reason why we find in the traditions that some person or some action is considered so valuable, that Heaven becomes obligatory for visiting such a person or doing a certain action?
What does it mean when we say that one must perform their Ziyarat with Ma\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ferat?
What is an interesting tradition regarding the naming of the holy city of Ziyarat?
What does Imam Ja\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'far al-Sadiq (A) say about the holy city of Qom and the people of the city of Qom?
What does Imam Musa al-Kadhim (A) say about a man from Qom who will rise up?
What is one of the greatest calamities that we face, as regards to where we live in the world?
And with all the beautiful traditions regarding the holy city of Qom, why would we want to live anywhere else in the world?
And if we can\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t move to the city of Qom, what should we do, wherever we are?
And finally, what is the connection between \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"The City of Qom and The Rising of the Mahdi (A)\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"?
To answer these questions and more, we humbly invited Sayyid Amir Behbahani from Canada, to sit down with us and speak a little bit about \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"The City of Qom and The Rising of the Mahdi (A).

==============================
We are at the end of one century and the start of a new century based on the Hijri solar calendar. Even if it wasn’t the beginning of a new century the changes in the world show that a long period of history has finished and the state of the world is changing.
Maybe we couldn’t have said this eight months ago. We couldn’t have said it last year. But now, with the events that we are witnessing in the world in recent months and in the period that we are in, everyone agrees that we are at a turn in history, an expression used by the dear Leader of the Islamic Revolution.
The last century can be called the century of the rise and fall of Western civilization. When I was a teenager, about fifty years ago, people used to say that we are at the end of the world. But this statement was retracted by the world\\\'s most prominent thinkers some time ago. Fukuyama said, “I was wrong when I said the end of history is liberal democracy. We don’t know where the end of history is because liberal democracy hasn’t been successful.”
What do you predict for this coming century? What do you suggest for its name? I have a suggestion for the name of this century. The coming century is bringing a civilization that will replace Western civilization. It will be an alternative civilization to Western civilization, according to many thinkers. Of course, they say this quietly and don’t announce it frequently on TV.
The alternative civilization will be the \\\"new Islamic civilization.\\\" The future civilization will be a \\\"Mahdavi [Imam Mahdi] civilization.\\\" Why am I saying this? Because no one in the world has any plans for the future! There is no thinker in the world to say that the future will be determined by socialism, or by liberal democracy, or to say the future will be determined by a certain lifestyle.
Yes, in terms of technology, they say technology will advance a lot! Yes, it is said that the world’s governments will be saved from dictatorial rulers. Yes, everyone is saying that a new chaos is being created in the world. Everyone says these things. But can the United Nations ensure order in the world? No. The previous century was the century of the rise and fall of Western civilization. The next century is the century of the new Islamic civilization.
It has been narrated from Imam Muhammad Baqir (as), “Our government will be the last government. Because after our government has been established, has succeeded and that great civilization ‘has been raised by God above all religions’ [Qur’an 61:9], no one will say, ‘If I had been in charge, I would have done that too.’” According to Imam Baqir (as), when that government is established no one will have anything else to say. A theoretical vacuum will have existed.
There is no voice in the universe talking about the future of the world for us to evaluate it to see if it is right or wrong! No one in the world says that in the future everyone will go toward Marxism, or that everyone will go toward a certain religion. Except for us. We are the only ones talking about the future! For forty years, we have been answering in religious forums. We have answered doubts. We have answered false claims. There is no longer a false claim in the world for us to answer! No one even has a claim for the future.
Only these minarets and mosques of yours talk about the future. Only you have hope for the future! This is a big celebration itself. And our community must be the one to explain the Mahdavi civilization. Every mosque, gathering, class or book that does not talk about the Mahdavi future of the world, has reduced its own value to nearly zero. Tell me about the future! What will the future be like?

The leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has described as a major achievement for the nation, maintaining the country’s security amid regional and global instability. Ayatollah Khamenei made the remarks in his annual message on the occasion of the Persian New Year, Nowruz. The Leader noted that Iran Is maintaining its security as the Middle East in general and Iran’s neighboring countries in particular, are plagued by insecurity. He praised the Iranian nation for responding to the US president’s affront to their country, with a massive turnout during the February 10 rallies marking the anniversary of the Islamic revolution. The Iran leader was referring to Donald Trump’s travel ban on several Muslim countries, including Iran. During the message, Ayatollah Khamenei named the Persian New Year as the year of “Resistance Economy: production, and job creation. He called for concerted efforts to implement the economy of resistance.

Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani has congratulated all Iranians and other nations that celebrate Nowruz on the occasion of the Persian New Year.
In his Nowruz address, Rouhani touched on a number of achievements made by Iran in the previous year including the implementation of the nuclear deal with the P5+1 group and the economy of resistance. He described the two as major milestones achieved by the Islamic Republic.
He also noted that Iran also managed to regain its pre-sanctions oil market share. The president added that Iran has scored an eight-percent economic growth for the first time after many years. Rouhani also underlined the need to create more jobs in the New Year.

El lema elegido por el Líder de la Revolución Islámica, el ayatolá Seyed Ali Jamenei, para este Año Nuevo persa es ‘Economía de Resistencia, Producción, Empleo’.
Tal como es de costumbre, el Líder iraní ofrece un discurso inmediatamente después del inicio del Año Nuevo y ofrece al pueblo su mensaje, sobre lo que se basarán las políticas de un año de las autoridades de la República Islámica de Irán.
Así comienza el ayatolá Jamenei su mensaje del Año Nuevo persa, el año 1396 del calendario iraní:
En el nombre de Dios, el Clemente y el Misericordioso
¡Oh, reformador de los corazones y las mentes! ¡Oh, regente del día y de la noche! ¡Oh, transformador de los estados y las circunstancias! ¡Cambia nuestro estado en el mejor estado! Saludos a Fátima, hija del profeta Mohamad (que la paz y bendiciones sean para él y su familia); y saludos al Mahdi prometido (duodécimo Imam de los musulmanes chiíes), y que nuestras almas sean sacrificadas por él y que Dios acelere su llegada.
Les deseo a mis queridos compatriotas, el gran pueblo de Irán, los queridos jóvenes y personas de diversos estratos sociales un Año Nuevo próspero. En particular, quiero felicitar a las queridas familias de los mártires, los veteranos discapacitados de la guerra y también a todas aquellas naciones que de una u otra forma celebran el Noruz (Año Nuevo persa) .
Agradezco a Dios por darme una vez más la oportunidad para felicitar al querido pueblo iraní. Les deseo un Año Nuevo próspero, favorable ―lleno de bendiciones, seguridad y bienestar― y espero que, con el favor de Dios, el año 1396 sea un año feliz para todo el pueblo de Irán y para los musulmanes de todo el mundo.
Espero que, durante el año que acaba de comenzar en este momento, todas las familias iraníes y todos los queridos iraníes se beneficien de la bondad divina y las bendiciones.
Si queremos evaluar el año que acaba de terminar ―el año 1395―, este incluyó acontecimientos felices y tristes, amargos y dulces, como todos los demás años. A lo que quiero referirme en este momento es a las vivencias amargas y dulces que están relacionadas con la gente y no son asuntos personales.
Experimentamos momentos dulces el año pasado relacionados con la dignidad nacional, la seguridad nacional, la determinación juvenil y los movimientos religiosos inclusivos en todo el país. También nos enfrentamos a momentos amargos, en particular los relativos a asuntos económicos y sociales. Voy a hablar de esto.
La dignidad de Irán y nuestra querida gente fue evidente durante todo el año 1395. Fue visible desde el principio hasta el final del año pasado. Nuestros enemigos en todo el mundo reconocieron el poderío del pueblo de Irán. La identidad del pueblo de Irán se mostró durante todos los diversos acontecimientos que tuvieron lugar en el año pasado.
Durante las marchas del 22 de Bahman (10 de febrero), el pueblo reaccionó de una manera entusiasta, efusiva y valiente ante un acto irrespetuoso cometido por el presidente estadounidense contra la República Islámica de Irán. En el Día de Al-Quds, asimismo, la gran reunión de la gente mostró la identidad y los objetivos de este país a todas las personas del mundo.
La seguridad del país en este turbulento entorno regional e internacional fue un factor muy importante para el pueblo iraní. Hoy en día, nuestros países vecinos ―los situados en el este, sureste y noroeste de nuestro país― están sufriendo debido a la inseguridad. La región está sufriendo a causa de la inseguridad, pero el pueblo de Irán afortunadamente experimentó una seguridad duradera durante todo el año pasado.
Mi referencia a la determinación juvenil viene de observar las actividades de miles de jóvenes en todo el país. Estos jóvenes están sumamente ocupados con sus actividades en los ámbitos de la ciencia, la cultura, el deporte y la producción. Ellos están presentando nuevos logros e innovaciones. Ellos están cimentando los pilares del futuro del país.

The fuel crisis in the besieged Gaza Strip has forced the residents of the coastal enclave to turn to the Sun to meet their energy demands.
Authorities of this crisis-hit hospital in Gaza have decided to install solar panels to get the most out of the sunlight. They say loss of power for even a minute could spell disaster for the patients there. Gazan officials hope the solar power could play a bigger role in providing energy for the Palestinians. But the solar panels are a bit costly and not everybody in the impoverished enclave can afford using them. Gaza has been under a crippling Israeli blockade for several years now. This has been exacerbated by the closure of the Rafah crossing on the border with Egypt.

[26 Feb 2014] Tehran hosts 6th Intl. renewable energy exhibition - English

Perhaps it would be hard for any country with easy access to abundant oil and gas resources, to adapt itself with a parsimonious pattern of energy consumption. This is what is happening in Iran. In fact the country sees no alternative but to move towards clean renewable energy, at a time when most of its large cities are struggling with environmental pollution.
This is the sixth year that companies from Iran and a number of foreign countries gather in the renewable energy exhibition to display their latest achievements based on clean and efficient energy. The main objective of the event is to promote the use of energy from non fossil fuel resources such as solar panels, wind turbines and geothermal heat. Some experts believe that a considerable shift from oil and gas to clean alternative substitutes is far from reach in a short time period.

The Sun has undergone a \\\"complete field reversal,\\\" with its north and south poles changing places as it marks the midpoint of Solar Cycle 24.
Experts say that the reversal of the Sun\\\'s magnetic field is, literally, a big event and it is a regular part of the solar cycle. While it may seem like the event could have catastrophic repercussions for the galaxy, its effects are actually more subtle, mostly interfering with space exploration. Some researchers say cosmic rays are a danger to astronauts and space probes and might affect the cloudiness and climate of Earth. NASA has released a visualization of how the switch occurs. Beginning in 1997 and ending in 2013, it shows the green positive polarity switching with the purple negative polarity. Solar Cycle 24 has been viewed as quite unpredictable. First, it came late by about a year, with extremely low activity recorded throughout 2009. This prompted astronomers to shift a predicted 2012 peak to 2013.

Dozens of Israeli soldiers raided the village of Susiya in the South West of Al Khalil, Hebron while handing 39 stop work and demolition orders. The latest Israeli orders target tents, kitchens, structures, solar panels, a clinic, a kindergarten, a cultural center, and milk production facility.
The solar panel plant was funded by the European Union and is the only source of electricity for the villagers. Human rights groups have stated that Israeli policy is part of its ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians.

Iran focuses on producing clean energy. Tehran\'s Niroo Research Institute (NRI) or Energy Research Institute has hosted the first Iran Wind Energy Conference and exhibition.
In attendance were Iran\'s President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, administration officials, experts and college students from 80 universities throughout Iran.
The conference discussed Iran\'s achievements in the field of clean energy. The president\'s Deputy for Research and Technology talked about Iran\'s advances in cogeneration or combined heat and power (CHP).
CHP is the use of a heat engine or power station to simultaneously generate electricity and useful heat.
Today Iran\'s Ministry of Energy spends 15% percent of its budget to invest in wind energy and solar energy.

Simply an amazing tribute to God and His Creation." Throughout history butterflies have fascinated artists and philosophers, scientists and school children with their profound mystery and beauty. In METAMORPHOSIS you will explore their remarkable world as few have before.
Spectacular photography, computer animation and magnetic resonance imaging open once hidden doors to every stage of a butterfly's life-cycle. From an egg the size of a pinhead...to a magnificent flying insect. It is a transformation so incredible biologists have called it "butterfly magic."
The superbly engineered body of a butterfly is magnified hundreds of times to reveal compound eyes made of thousands of individual lenses, wings covered with microscopic solar panels that warm the insect's muscles for flight, and navigational systems that unerringly guide Monarch butterflies on their annual migration from Canada to Mexico.
How did these extraordinary creatures come into being? Are they the products of a blind, undirected process? Or, were they designed by an intelligence that transcends the material world?
Filmed in the rain forests of Ecuador, Mexico's Trans-Volcanic mountain range, and leading research centers, METAMORPHOSIS is an unforgettable documentary filled with the joys of discovery and wonder.

Gisoo Misha Ahmadi, Press TV, Tehran
c Iranians are becoming more aware and turning towards renewable energy sources. They're also trying to find ways to reduce energy consumption.
The solar water heating systems on display at the 3rd international energy saving exhibition in Tehran are the first the draw the visitors who may not just be big fans green technology but simply more concerned about their gas and electricity bills.
Now that energy subsidies have been eliminated and gas prices are high people are turning to other sources of energy. Solar water heaters can help reduce their energy consumption by 70 percent.
Ever since the government has introduced its policies to change energy consumption pattern more and more people have been considering sources other than fossil fuels. The effect can be seen on this annual exhibition. More than 80 companies have taken part including more than 10 foreign companies from China, Germany, Turkey and France.
Even wind turbines have found their way to the exhibition.
Iran is the 16th producer of electricity in the world and is working to achieve sustainable development in the field of renewable energy. Iran is now producing 2100 Mega Watts of electricity from renewable sources. The target set for 2025 is 12000 Mega Watts which is 10 percent of the annual production.
Meanwhile figures show that Iranians are becoming energy aware and changing their consumption habits.
The total power peak demand in summer has decreased to 39140 megawatts from 40150. This shows that people know the value of energy and are consuming more wisely.
And as the country moves towards commercialization of Green Technology this annual exhibition will continue to focus on sustainable energy, renewable energy and green energy over the coming years, while providing visitors with essential information about innovative eco-products and services.

One of the main attractions at the 2011 Paris Air Show was the Solar Impulse, a prototype aircraft powered exclusively by sunlight. It's only a single seater and is regularly delayed by either too much wind or too little sun, but it is a remarkable aircraft, solar powered and able to fly during day or night. And luckily for onlookers, conditions at the Paris show on Sunday were perfect for the Solar Impulse's first public demonstration flight. The aircraft flew for 20 minutes in front of large crowds at Bourget airport, where the world's aviation industry is gathered for the biennial Paris Air Show. The Solar Impulse is powered by the sun through 10-thousand solar cells which cover its 63-metre (207-feet) wingspan and generate about 40 horsepower, about the same power a small scooter uses, according to the flight team.
