Who are the army of the holy Prophet (S) and Imam Zaman (A) in today’s times? Why should we be extremely careful of what we do and say and think throughout our day? Furthermore, what is the difference between the forces of Towheed and the forces of Taghut? And what did the holy Prophet (S) say about Imam Ali (A) during the battle of Khandaq? In addition, what was the spiritual significance of the strike of Imam Ali (A) in that battle? And, what can the Armed Forces learn from the Commander of the Faithful – Imam Ali (A)? Moreover, who is behind certain proud thoughts that cross our mind? And finally, how do the people of Allah increase their perfection? Imam Khomeini (R) advises the Armed Forces to be an Islamic force, and to use their power to guide the masses, as his eminence explains, \"The Forces of Towheed VS The Forces of Taghut\".

Wilayat of Allah VS Wilayat of taghut | Leader of the Muslim Ummah Imam Khamenei warns the rulers of the Muslim countries to return to the Wilayat of Islam, Quran, and Allah. Why are they seeking refuge under the Wilayat of America? How in the world can Muslim rulers partner with the enemies of Islam to suppress and oppress Palestinians & Yemenis? Do they think they can win on these two fronts? This is a clear warning by the Leader!

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, wherever they are, upon the holy months of Muharram and Safar. This year, countless millions across the world once again proudly commemorated the mission of Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A) and most eagerly mourned over the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A), and his family members and companions who accompanied his eminence into the divine hands of martyrdom as they stood up for Truth and Justice against the overwhelming forces of evil and falsehood. And once again, millions of people gathered around the pivot of Imam Husayn (A) on the Day of Arbaeen, commemorating the 40th day after his martyrdom. We spoke previously about the \\\\\\\"Project of Towheed\\\\\\\" in our IP Talk Show titled \\\\\\\"What Is Allah\\\\\\\'s Universal Project of Towheed?\\\\\\\" Yet, why would Allah want to establish His divine rule upon the material realm in the first place? And what is the only way for human beings to reach existential excellence? What is submission out of free will? And what happens to a human being when they submit to Allah out of their free will? And what model has Allah put forth for humanity when Allah wanted to show the pinnacle and perfection of a human being achieved via Towheed? Have the modern-day systems of the world provided any tranquility to the world in general or even their own nations? What country is the poster-boy for modern materialism, while boasting of one of the highest levels of mental depression? And what happens to a person when they don\\\\\\\'t have holistic knowledge about a certain matter; and what are its repercussions when it comes to the \\\\\\\'creation\\\\\\\' of sciences? What is known as the \\\\\\\'Search for Objectivity\\\\\\\'? And what happens when theories put forth aren\\\\\\\'t done so in an objective manner; and worse, they are done without Taqwa, i.e. God-consciousness? What are some interesting points vis-à-vis the Church and the State, the role of women in Western civilization, and the feminism movement? When it comes to the proverb, \\\\\\\'power corrupts and absolute power, corrupts absolutely\\\\\\\' is it applicable to any and all situations; and how does it apply to the theory of Wilayat al-Faqih? And how is the saying, \\\\\\\'everything that happens, happens in the kitchen\\\\\\\' and the \\\\\\\'Revolving Door Policy\\\\\\\' applicable to the governmental establishment of the United States of America? And what does Noam Chomsky say about the façade of a liberal media? Is social media the democratization of information, especially when keeping in mind the amount of censorship that takes place? What is an interesting point as regards to hollow and superficial slogans of the Taghut powers, such as freedom, leisure, and even peace? And furthermore, what is the definition of peace in the dictionary of the Taghut powers of the world? And what is one of the fundamental themes of the global Taghut powers? What happens to an individual when they begin to speak out against the system of the global Taghut powers? And what does it mean that the leader of a country ends up, in one way or the other, becoming that nation\\\\\\\'s \\\\\\\'Chief Educator\\\\\\\'? And finally, how are all of these different questions, in one way or the other, related to Shaytan\\\\\\\'s project of fierce and deadly opposition to the \\\\\\\'Project of Towheed\\\\\\\'? In order to answer these questions and more, we humbly invited Sayyid Agha Ali Raza from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to help explain and answer for us, \\\\\\\"What Is Shaytan\\\\\\\'s Evil Project Against Towheed?\\\\\\\" Salutations be upon Husayn! Salutations be upon Ali ibne Husayn! Salutations be upon the children of Husayn!

In light of the recent cartoons attempting to insult our beloved Prophet Muhammad (S) in #France, as well as the #QuranBurning in #Sweden, it is important to keep at the forefront of our attention the fact that these things serve two purposes: the first is to abuse the beautiful religion of Islam and the second is to DISTRACT YOU FROM THE REAL CORE ISSUE. Shaykh Muzaffer Abbas Hyder explains the concept of the \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"UMBRELLA of the Taghut” and raises a fundamental question: while the Muslim world slips down the fiery slope of serving the DAJJAL and only a few now remain on the path of the Wilayah of the Mahdi (A)… will you fall for their illusion of \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Freedom of Speech”? Or will you wake up to the reality of a global hijacking of history and the Islamic narrative in order to serve the interests of the Zionist elite? Will you recognize the so-called “Muslim leaders” who are normalizing the idea of COLLABORATING with the enemies of the Mahdi (A)? Or will you fall for the sectarian divide being pushed through #BritishShiaism, #TakfiriWahhabis & #AmericanizedIslam? One who takes his eyes off the enemy has lost. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Have you not seen those who claim to have believed in what was revealed to you, and what was revealed before you? They wish to refer legislation to Taghut [the System of Kufr], while they were commanded to reject it; and Satan wishes to lead them far astray.” - The Holy Quran [4:60] #ImamKhamenei #TheLeader #CharlieHebdo #Normalization #Normalizing #Palestine #FreePalestine #AlQuds #Jerusalem #Israel #Muslim #Islam #Quran #Iran #Iraq #FreedomOfSpeech #Censorship #Paris #France #Holocaust #Nazis #Zionists #Pakistan #Islamophobic #ImranKhan #JeSuisCharlie #RasmusPaludan #NormalisingTies #Erdogan #UAE #Oman #Yemen #AmmarNakshawani #Nakshawani #Qazwini #UMAA #Biden #Trump #KamalaHarris #MemriTV #FoxNews #NewYorkTimes #BritishShiaism #Shia #Sunni #IslamicPulse #BACKFIRE

Our condolences to all the believers upon the Arbaeen of the martyrdom of the third divinely appointed Imam, Imam Husayn (A), his family members, and his companions. This year, Islamic Pulse is honored and humbled to present a special Arbaeen episode of Sister Spade. In this episode, Sister Spade speaks to us about the overall philosophy of Arbaeen and the event of Arbaeen, and how every single one of us must choose between the followers of Truth or the forces of the Taghut; a continuous choice which eventually determines our destiny and decides with whom we stand, both in this world and the next. Salutations be upon Husayn, upon Ali ibn al-Husayn, upon the children of Husayn, and upon the companions of Husayn. #SisterSpade #IslamicPulse #ImamHusayn #Husayn #Islam #IslamicPulse #Arbaeen #Karbala #Ashura #Muharram #Safar #Taghut #Truth #Falsehood #Revolution #IslamicRevolution

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, wherever they are, upon the holy months of Muharram and Safar. As many countless millions across the world already know, the 10th of Muharram is the day of the martyrdom of the 3rd divinely appointed Imam, Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A), who was martyred on the plains of Karbala in the year 61 AH of the Islamic calendar. And this year, countless millions across the world will once again proudly commemorate the mission of Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A) and most eagerly mourn over the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A), and the family members and companions who accompanied his eminence into the divine hands of martyrdom as they stood up for Truth and Justice against the overwhelming forces of evil and falsehood. Yet, one of the most less known words of Imam Husayn (A) are the words of his eminence in Mina; also known as the Mina sermon. In this short 7 part series, Islamic Pulse has endeavored to bring forth the words of Imam Husayn (A) given by his eminence in the Mina sermon. But what does the 1st part of the Mina sermon entail? And who is the Mina sermon addressed to? And on whose account are people famous and venerated for? And who do the people turn to when they don\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t receive their due? And based upon what, does Allah grant one prestige and honor? Finally, what will you do with the words of advice of Imam Husayn (A) that are entailed in the Mina sermon? Salutations be upon Husayn! Salutations be upon Ali ibne Husayn! Salutations be upon the children of Husayn!

There are some verses of poetry that had been recited by Imam Husayn (A) during the tragedy of Karbala. Where can these verses of poetry be found? Who is the author of the book, The Radiance of Imam Husayn (A)? In one such verse, recited by Imam Husayn (A) on the day of Ashura, what did his eminence recite? What does Imam Husayn (A) say about life and death in the aforementioned piece of poetry? Finally, how is this piece of poetry recited by Imam Husayn (A) relevant to you in the present-day? Sayyid Shahryar answers, why \\\"Will You Greed For That Which Is Fleeting?\\\" in this CubeSync special, dedicated to the verses of poetry recited by Imam Husayn (A) during the ordeal of Karbala.

Our condolences to all the believers, wherever they are, upon the martyrdom anniversary of the 8th divinely appointed Imam, Imam Ali bin Musa al-Redha (A). Yet, who was the father of the Imam Redha (A)? And who was the esteemed mother of Imam Redha (A)? What are just some of the many virtues of Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Redha (A)? How many slaves did Imam Redha (A) free? What was the Sazeman Wikalat? What dynasty did Ma\\\\\\\'mun al-Rashid belong to? Where did Ma\\\\\\\'mun move the Abbasid capital to, and why did he do so? Why did Ma\\\\\\\'mun force Imam al-Redha (A) to take the position of Wali Ahad? What was the Jihade Tabyiin of Imam al-Redha (A) and where did he conduct it?

Who all were the rioters that were seen in the limited and sporadic rioting on some of the streets, in some of the cities in the Islamic Republic of Iran? And are \'the rioters\' merely those that come out onto the streets, or are there other aspects to \'the rioters\'? Was this kind of limited and sporadic rioting something unprecedented in the 40-plus year history of the Islamic Republic of Iran? And was the country of Iran really \'on fire\' or had it turned into a \'war zone\', as the mass media had tried to portray it, and why would the mass media want to portray it as such? What is something that is commonly stated by American officials vis-à-vis, the Islamic Republic of Iran? Yet despite these statements of American officials regarding how long the Islamic Republic of Iran will last, what does the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, say about the current condition of the Islamic Republic? And as far as numbers are concerned, how many people come out against the Islamic System, as compared to how many people come out in support of the Islamic System in Iran? Is it not suspicious, that sporadic and limited rioting occurred almost immediately after the death of Ms. Mahsa Amini? And what are the overall categories of rioters that were seen on the streets and behind the scenes of the recent rioting in the Islamic Republic of Iran? Why did some youth come out onto the streets and join the riots? Why did some Iranian celebrities support, and in some cases, incite the rioters? Yet, who were the real players that participated in the riots, and in many cases, were supporting the rioting from behind the scenes? Do these rioters, who are incredibly limited in number, represent in any way, the mainstream view of the Iranian people? What was the involvement of the MKO/MEK terrorist organization, that is currently headquartered in Albania, and is whole-heartedly supported by the Arrogant Western Powers? How did the Islamic Republic\'s Judiciary branch, based upon the recommendations of the Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, deal with the various rioters, despite the damage that was done by the rioters to public and private property? What role does \'mob mentality\' play in our discussion as regards to the rioters seen on the streets of the Islamic Republic? And finally, what does the Leader of the Islamic Republic, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, say about who is ultimately the head of the snake, when it comes to the recent rioters seen on the streets of the Islamic Republic of Iran? To answers these questions and more, we humbly invited Shaykh Ali Qomi from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, to sit down with us and let us know \"Who Were the Rioters In Iran?\" The following is the link for the rallies that occurred in Iran, in support of the Islamic Republic and the Islamic System on The National Day Against Global Arrogance on Nov 4, 2022, following the limited and sporadic riots after the death of Ms. Mahsa Amini on Sep 16, 2022: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuFa0XEnL0P0YnQui8HV2nwCxWE9QlhSa #IslamicPulse #IPTalkShow #Islam #Allah #Quran #AhlulBayt #Media #MassMedia #Journalism #FakeNews #IranRiots #Propanda #MahsaAmini #Mahsa #Iran #Wilayah #Imamate #Truth #Justice #Rghteousness #Freedom #Independence #Revolution #IslamicRevolution #IslamicAwakening #ImamKhomeini #Khomeini #ImamKhamenei #Khamenei #Honor #Falsehood #Evil #Taghut

Welcome to the Islamic Pulse Talk Show. In this episode we're answering the fundamental question, "Is Islam A Religion of Politics?". Why is this question such an important question that needs answering? What is one of the objectives for the Almighty Allah to send divinely appointed Prophets (A) to the Earth? What does it mean when it is said that Islam is a comprehensive religion and it includes all aspects of life? What kind of view of Islam do the people have that don't have a deep understanding of Islam? What are some examples of Islam's nurturing of and encouraging social life? What are some interesting points about the congregational Friday prayers known as the Jum'ah Prayers and its relation to the discussion at hand? What role does the Masjid play in the original and Pure Muhammadan Islam of the Messenger of Allah (S)? Where can the roots of the separation of politics from Islam ultimately be traced back to? What is the concept of a 'spiritual Wilayah' and a 'social Wilayah'; and where were they united? Why is it said that an Islam without politics is a 'weak' Islam? What did Imam Khomeini (R) mean when he said that before the Islamic Revolution, Islam was like a dead horse? What is the source of all the progress that is being seen in the Islamic Republic of Iran? If the other divinely appointed Imams (A) had the opportunity to establish a government, would they? What is an interesting story about an Englishman in a Muslim country, and how is it related to our discussion and our mourning ceremonies in the month of Muharram and Safar? What is a profound statement of Imam Husayn (A) that shows us that his eminence's stand was for all of humanity and for all of time? And in the end, "Is Islam A Religion of Politics? To answer these questions and many more, we humbly invited Shaykh Hurr Shabbiri from the United Kingdom, to sit down with us and speak a little bit about the answer to the age-old question, "Is Islam A Religion of Politics?". Unfortunate that after so many years, we are still answering this age-old question, whose answer is all so fundamentally crystal clear. #IslamicPulse #IPTalkShow #Allah #Muslims #Shia #Islam #Quran #Politics #PoliticalIslam #Secularism #Resistance #Taghut #Falsehood #Truth #Justice #ImamKhamenei #Imam #ImamKhomeini #Wilayate #AhlulBayt #Imamate #Wilayah #WilayatAlFaqih #Khamenei #JihadeTabyiin #AwaitedOne #Mahdi #Media #SoftWar #IslamicRepublic #Revolution #Resistance #IslamicRevolution #IslamicAwareness

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, wherever they are, upon the holy months of Muharram and Safar. This year, countless millions across the world once again proudly commemorated the mission of Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A) and most eagerly mourned over the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A), and his family members and companions who accompanied his eminence into the divine hands of martyrdom as they stood up for Truth and Justice against the overwhelming forces of evil and falsehood. And this year, once again, millions of people will gather around the pivot of Imam Husayn (A) on the Day of Arbaeen, commemorating the 40th day after his martyrdom. Yet, what are some inherent attributes of the western systems prevalent across the world in the present-day? Is there truly objectivity in journalism in the western world, especially when we see that for many years there was a media blackout as regards to the Arbaeen procession? How does the Arbaeen procession break the preconceived imposed notions of individualism and materialism? And are the so-called virtues promoted by western civilization based upon a moral and ethical duty or a mere self-centric personal gain? Via what means do the Arrogant Powers try to create anti-ethical attributes in the society? And on the other hand, what are some of the values that are promoted in the Husayni narrative? Is there a manifestation of the Truth where it exists objectively? What is one of the hallmarks of materialism? And what does it mean that your identity is based upon your consumption when in the sphere of materialism? And what does it mean that people become hollow once God is taken out of society; and subsequently, what is placed in that hollow vessel by the Taghut powers? And what must the Taghut powers of the world do if they want to enslave humanity in order to maximize their self-interest profit and gain, which most surely comes at the expense of the common masses? How does the Arbaeen procession in ode of Imam Husayn (A) break the aforementioned demonic spell of the global Taghut powers? And with all this in mind, how does the Arbaeen procession commemorating the mission and martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A) promote a divine lifestyle that we can all follow? In order to answer these questions and more, we humbly invited Sayyid Agha Ali Raza from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to help explain and answer for us, \\\"How Does Arbaeen Promote A Divine Lifestyle?\\\" Salutations be upon Husayn! Salutations be upon Ali ibne Husayn! Salutations be upon the children of Husayn!

What does Shaheed Nimr relate Shirk as regards to the Taghut? And what do we learn about the Taghut in the approach of Imam Husayn (A)? What are some virtues that Shaheed Nimr learned from Imam Husayn (A)? And what do we learn from Imam Husayn (A) as regards to sacrifice, responsibility, initiative, resisting injustice, fighting oppression and opposing the Taghut? Shaheed Nimr Baqir al-Nimr passionately answers as he explains what he learned from Imam Husayn (A). #MustWatch

And this year, once again, millions of people will gather around the pivot of Imam Husayn (A) on the Day of Arbaeen, commemorating the 40th day after his martyrdom. What is the state of the world in the present-day where the global Taghut powers are in control? And what kinds of evils and vices are being spread across the globe by the global Taghut powers? What is the solution when it comes to all these different moral and ethical plagues that are engulfing the world? And finally, what are three ways tin which he enemy wants to hijack and misguide the commemoration of the martyrdom and the Azaadari of Imam Husayn (A)? In this Scholar Clip, Shaykh Ali Qomi explains the \\\"Three Traps of the Enemy\\\" and how we must steer clear from them if we are to succeed gong into the future as we save humanity from the clutches of evil and falsehood.

What is the mission and movement of Prophets of Allah? What is meant by the Qur\'anic term \"Be\'that\"? And what is the direction of this Qur\'anic term \"Be\'that\"? What are the two concepts that go hand in hand with one another when it comes to this Qur\'anic term \"Be\'that\"? Finally, who are the Taghut? Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei provides us with a short interpretation of the following verse of the Holy Quran. Chapter 16 (al-Nahl), Verse 36: “And We certainly sent into every nation a Messenger, [saying], ‘Worship Allah and avoid the Taghut.’ And among them were those whom Allah guided, and among them were those upon whom error was [deservedly] decreed. So, proceed through the earth and observe how was the end of the deniers.” #ShortTafsir #Interpretation #Quran #Concepts #Beliefs

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, wherever they are, upon the holy months of Muharram and Safar. This year, countless millions across the world once again proudly commemorated the mission of Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A) and most eagerly mourned over the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A), and his family members and companions who accompanied his eminence into the divine hands of martyrdom as they stood up for Truth and Justice against the overwhelming forces of evil and falsehood. And this year, once again, millions of people will gather around the pivot of Imam Husayn (A) on the Day of Arbaeen, commemorating the 40th day after his martyrdom. Still, what is one of the slogans of Imam al-Mahdi (A) that is inseparably connected with Imam Husayn (A)? And what is an interesting announcement that Imam al-Mahdi (A) will do with his advent? What is one of the meanings of the fact that Imam al-Mahdi (A) will take vengeance from Yazid and the other killers of Imam Husayn (A)? Primarily and ultimately, Who has the absolute right to rule? And what is the ultimate path to the emancipation of humanity? What is the true source of power, honor, dignity, respect, truth, justice, and freedom? And what is truly the ultimate revenge against all those that oppose Allah\\\'s absolute governorship upon the earth? What does it mean that Shaytan had experiential knowledge of Allah? What is one of the psychoses that is suffered by Shaytan, and is found in both - an individual sinner and the system of Taghut? What is a divinely appointed Messenger and a divinely appointed Imam a representation of, vis-à-vis the Almighty Allah? And in the epic of Karbala, ultimately who was in control; the forces of Shaytan or Imam Husayn ibne Ali (A)? Why is the divinely appointed 12th Imam (A) still in occultation; is it because of the Sender of salvation or the receiver of salvation? Is the natural order created by Allah sacred, and will Allah veto this natural order that He has created? What does Imam Sadiq (A) say when a companion said to him that the grounds for an uprising had been prepared? What is the true meaning of brotherhood, how is it reflected in the Arbaeen procession, and how is it related to the various issues in the Muslim World including Palestine and Yemen? What are some of the moral and ethical virtues that one learns in the Arbaeen procession that are necessary for the reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi (A)? What will the enemies of humanity do to the Arbaeen procession in order to weaken it? And on the other hand, who are the ones that are defending the \\\'Arbaeen Project\\\'; many times with their lives and their blood? And who was the most effective and influential personality when it came to defeating ISIS/Daesh and protecting the Arbaeen procession and the pilgrims of Imam Husayn (A)? What does sin do to the relationship of every single one of us with the Imam of our time? When it comes to the \\\'Defenders of the Holy Shrines\\\', what did their defense of the holy shrines show to the whole world and most specifically to the Taghuti powers of the world; something that was unprecedented in history? And finally, with all this in mind, how does Arbaeen prepare the grounds for the reappearance of the divinely appointed 12th Imam, Imam al-Mahdi (A)? In order to answer these questions and more, we humbly invited Sayyid Agha Ali Raza from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to help explain and answer for us, \\\"How Does Arbaeen Prepare the Grounds for Imam Mahdi (A)?\\\" Salutations be upon Husayn! Salutations be upon Ali ibne Husayn! Salutations be upon the children of Husayn!

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, wherever they are, upon the holy months of Muharram and Safar. This year, countless millions across the world once again proudly commemorated the mission of Imam Husayn ibn Ali (A) and most eagerly mourned over the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A), and his family members and companions who accompanied his eminence into the divine hands of martyrdom as they stood up for Truth and Justice against the overwhelming forces of evil and falsehood. And once again, millions of people from all over the world gathered around the pivot of Imam Husayn (A) on the Day of Arbaeen, commemorating the 40th day after the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (A). Yet, what is the \\\'Project of Towheed\\\'? And what was the project that was ordained upon all the previous Messenger, and up to the Prophet Muhammad (S) and the divinely appointed Imams (A)? How does the Arbaeen of Imam Husayn (A) play a role in this project? What is one of the things that is achieved when we attend the Arbaeen of Imam Husayn (A)? What is the ultimate culmination of the \\\'Project of Towheed\\\'? And what role does the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Republic play in the \\\'Project of Towheed\\\'? And likewise, what role do the righteous scholars such as Imam Khomeini (R) and Imam Khamenei play in the \\\'Project of Towheed\\\'? What is the personality of the righteous religious scholars when they are the true followers of the \\\"Project of Towheed\\\'? What does Imam Khomeini (R) say about the behaviors of Prophet Isa (A) and Prophet Musa (A) as regards to the Taghut of their own times? If the other Prophets (A) of the past or the other Imams (A) had been faced with the situation of Imam Husayn (A), how would have they behaved? And what happens when a person is corrupt or misguided and then tries to \\\'create\\\' knowledge; whether it be scientific, philosophical, or religious? What role does the Islamic Republic and the Islamic Revolution play when it comes to the reappearance of the 12th Imam (A)? And will the actions of the 12th Imam (A) be a mere conglomeration of miracles? How is Wali al-Faqih and the Islamic Republic\\\'s system in accordance with the \\\'Project of Towheed\\\'? And finally, if the Islamic Republic was a person, how would it compare to the other systems of the world?

دیدار شركت‌كنندگان در اجلاس جهانی جوانان و بیداری اسلامی با رهبر انقلاب http://farsi.khamenei.ir/news-content?id=18862 صدها نفر از جوانان 73 كشور جهان از جمله جوانان مصر، تونس، لیبی، لبنان، یمن، بحرین و فلسطین صبح روز 10 بهمن 1390، در فضایی صمیمانه و لبریز احساسات اسلامی و انقلابی، با رهبر معظم انقلاب اسلامی دیدار كردند. در این دیدار پس از سخنان نمایندگان جوانان تونس، مصر، یمن، بحرین، فلسطین، لیبی و لبنان، حضرت آیت الله خامنه‌ای در سخنانی، جوانان كشورهای اسلامی را حاملان بشارت‌های بزرگ برای آینده امت اسلامی خواندند و افزودند: بیداری جوانان سرتاسر جهان اسلام، امید به بیداری عمومی ملتهای مسلمان را افزایش داده است. رهبر انقلاب، تاریخ بشر را بر سر یك پیچ بزرگ تاریخی و در آستانه تحولی عظیم برشمردند و تأكید كردند: بشریت از همه مكاتب و ایدئولوژی‌های مادی اعم از ماركسیسم، لیبرال دمكراسی و ناسیونالیسم سكولار عبور كرده و در آغاز دوران جدیدی است كه بزرگترین نشانه آن، توجه ملت‌ها به خدای متعال، استمداد آنها از قدرت لایزال الهی و اتكای ملتها به وحی است. ایشان با اشاره به تسلط شبكه دیكتاتوری پیچیده، خطرناك، فاسد و شیطانی صهیونیست‌ها و قدرت‌های استكباری بر جهان افزودند: قیام ملت‌های منطقه علیه دیكتاتورهای وابسته، جزئی از مبارزه بشریت با دیكتاتوری جهانی صهیونیست‌هاست و جامعه بشری با پشت سر گذاشتن پیچ بزرگ تاریخی، از سیطره این دیكتاتوری خطرناك رها می‌شود و این تحول عظیم براساس وعده صادق پروردگار، به آزادی ملت‌ها و حاكمیت ارزش‌های معنوی و الهی منجر خواهد شد. حضرت آیت الله خامنه‌ای با اشاره به كسانی كه ممكن است پیروزی بر شبكه دیكتاتوری جهانی صهیونیست‌ها را غیرممكن بدانند خاطرنشان كردند: قبلاً نیز اگر كسی از پیروزی جوانان مؤمن حزب الله بر ارتش رژیم صهیونیستی سخن می‌گفت و یا از ذلت طاغوت مصر و تحولات عجیب شمال افریقا حرف می زد خیلی‌ها باور نمی‌كردند همچنانكه استقامت، پیروزی و پیشرفت جمهوری اسلامی نیز برای برخی ها قابل باور نبود اما قدرت فائقه پروردگار، خود را در این پیروزی‌ها و تحولات شگفت نشان داد. رهبر انقلاب اسلامی، حضور هوشیارانه و استقامت ملت‌ها در میدان را زمینه‌ساز تحقق بدون تردید نصرت‌های الهی خواندند و افزودند: در پرتو تحقق وعده‌های پروردگار، صهیونیست‌ها، شیطان بزرگ امریكا و قدرت‌های غربی امروز در مقابل بیداری اسلامی احساس ناتوانی می‌كنند و این احساس ضعف و شكست هر روز بیشتر خواهد شد. حضرت آیت الله خامنه‌ای، تحولات كشورهای اسلامی را آغاز راه نجات و سعادت، برشمردند و افزودند: مهم این است كه پیروزی‌های بدست آمده را پایان راه ندانیم و با ادامه مجاهدت و تكیه بر عزم و اراده ملت‌ها، و اتكا و حسن ظن به خدای قادر متعال، مبارزه با زورگویان جهانی و عوامل آنها را ادامه دهیم. http://english.khamenei.ir//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1580&Itemid=16 In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the Two Worlds, and peace and greetings be upon the Master of Messengers, the Master of all people, our Master and Prophet, Ab-al-Qassem Al-Mustafa Muhammad, and upon his immaculate household and chosen companions and upon those who follow him well until the Day of Judgment. I would like to welcome all the dear guests, the honorable youth, the bearers of great news for the future of the Islamic Ummah. Each and every one of you is a bearer of a great piece of news. When the youth of a country awaken, there will be increased hope of a general awakening in that country. Today Muslim youth have awakened throughout the world of Islam. So many traps have been set in the way of proud and determined Muslim youth, but they have managed to eliminate these problems. You see what has happened in Tunisia, in Egypt, in Libya, in Yemen and in Bahrain. You see the movement that has taken place in other Islamic countries. This is all good news. You dear youth should know that the history of the world and the history of humanity is at a great momentous juncture today. A new era is starting throughout the world. The great and clear sign of it is the attention to Allah the Exalted, the cries for assistance from the inexhaustible source of divine power and reliance on divine revelations. Humanity has passed through the days of materialistic ideologies and schools and thought. Today neither Marxism, nor western liberal democracy, nor secular nationalism has any appeal. You see what is going on in the cradle of western liberal democracy - in America, in Europe. They admit failure. Today among members of the Islamic Ummah, the greatest appeal belongs to Islam, the Holy Quran and the school of thought that is based on divine revelation. Allah the Exalted has promised that the divine and Islamic school of thought and the school of thought that is based on divine revelation can help humanity achieve happiness. This is a very sacred, very important and very significant phenomenon. Today Islamic countries have risen up against dependent dictatorships. This is a prelude to an uprising against global and international dictatorship, namely the tyranny of the corrupt and evil network of the Zionists and the arrogant powers. Today international autocracy and dictatorship is embodied by the tyranny of America, America\'s followers and the satanic and dangerous Zionist network. Today they are acting like a dictator throughout the world by using different methods and different means. What you did in Egypt, what you did in Tunisia, what you did in Libya, what you are doing in Yemen, what you are doing in Bahrain - and strong motivation has built up in other countries to do the same - is part of a battle against this dangerous and harmful dictatorship that has been pressuring humanity for two centuries. The momentous juncture that I spoke about is the transition from the hegemony of this dictatorship to national freedom and the rule of spiritual and divine values. This will happen: do not consider discount it. This is a divine promise: \"And surely Allah will help him who helps His cause.\" [The Holy Quran, 22: 40] Allah the Exalted stresses that if you help His cause, He will assist you. This might look unlikely from a materialistic perspective, a perspective that is based on material calculations. However, there were many things which used to look unlikely, yet they happened. Around fifteen months ago, would you have thought the Egyptian taghut would be humiliated and annihilated like that? At that time, if people had been told that Mubarak\'s corrupt and dependent regime would be overthrown, many of them would have rejected the claim as unlikely, but it happened. Two years ago, if somebody had claimed that those amazing events would happen in North Africa, the majority of the people would have rejected it. If somebody had claimed that in a country like Lebanon, a group of faithful youth would manage to defeat the well-equipped Zionist army, nobody would have believed him. But these things happened. If somebody had said that the Islamic Republic would manage to resist for 32 years and achieve more power and progress on a daily basis in spite of all the enmity by the east and the west, nobody would have believed him, but it happened. \"Allah promised you many acquisitions which you will take, then He hastened on this one for you and held back the hands of men from you, and that it may be a sign for the believers and that He may guide you on a right path.\" [The Holy Quran, 48: 20] These victories are divine signs. They are signs of God\'s overwhelming power. Whenever the people step into the arena, whenever we enter the arena with all our heart and soul, there will definitely be divine assistance. Allah the Exalted shows us the path: \"And (as for) those who strive hard for Us, We will most certainly guide them in Our ways.\" [The Holy Quran, 29: 69] God will guide and assist. He will help people achieve their goals. The condition is that we should be present in the arena. What has happened so far is very significant. For two hundred years, westerners ruled the Islamic Ummah by making use of their scientific advances. They occupied Islamic countries: some of them directly, some of them indirectly with the help of local dictatorships. England, France and finally America - which is the Great Satan - spread their hegemony over the Islamic Ummah. They humiliated the Islamic Ummah as much as they could. They planted the cancerous tumor of Zionism at the heart of the strategic Middle East region and they strengthened it in every way. They were sure that their interests and policies had been safeguarded in this critical part of the world. But the Islamic resolve of Muslim people and their presence wiped out all these impossible dreams and put an end to all these goals. Today the arrogant powers of the world feel helpless in the face of Islamic Awakening. You are dominant. You will win. The future belongs to you. What has been done is a great achievement. But the important point is that this is not the end. This is only the beginning. Muslim nations must continue their struggle so that they can eliminate the enemy in different arenas. The battle is a battle of wills. Any side whose will is stronger has the upper hand. A person whose heart depends on Allah the Exalted has the upper hand. \"If Allah assists you, then there is none that can overcome you.\" [The Holy Quran, 3: 160] If you get divine assistance, nobody will overpower you and you will move forward. We want Muslim nations that make up the great Islamic Ummah to be free. We want them to be independent. We want them to be honorable. We want them to avoid humiliation. We want them to organize their life with the lofty and progressive rules of Islam. And Islam can help them to do so. They kept us scientifically backward for many years. They trampled on our culture. They destroyed our independence. Today we have awakened and we will conquer the arenas of science one after the other. Thirty years ago, when the Islamic Republic was established, the enemies used to say that although the Islamic Revolution had achieved victory, it would not be able to manage different areas of life. They used to say that the Islamic Revolution would back down. Thanks to Islam, today our youth have managed to make great achievements in scientific areas, achievement that would not have occurred to the enemies themselves in the past. Thanks to reliance on Allah the Exalted, today Iranian youth achieve great scientific accomplishments. They produce enriched uranium. They produce stem cells. They make great advances in biotechnology. They venture into space. And all of these things are due to reliance on Allah the Exalted and the slogan of \"Allahu Akbar\". [Audience shout \"Allahu Akbar\"] We must not underestimate our own capabilities. Among the biggest problems that western culture has imposed on Islamic countries is two wrong and misguided conceptions. First, they instilled a sense of incompetence into Muslim nations. They made Muslim nations believe that they were not capable of doing anything - neither in the political arena, nor in the economic arena, nor in the scientific arena. They told Muslim nations, \"You are weak.\" We Muslim nations suffered from this misconception for decades and we stayed backward. The second misconception that they instilled into our mind was that our enemies were invincible and that their power was overwhelming. They convinced us that America could not be defeated, that it was impossible to force the west to retreat, that we had to tolerate them. Today it has become clear to Muslim nations that both of these conceptions are completely wrong. Muslim nations can move forward. They can restore their Islamic glory - Muslims used to be at the peak of honor, at the peak of scientific, political and social brilliance. And the enemy has to retreat in different arenas. This century is the century of Islam. This century is the century of spirituality. Islam offers rationality, spirituality and justice to nations. The kind of Islam that is based on rationality, Islam that is based on thinking, Islam that is based on spirituality, Islam that is based on attention to God and reliance on Him, Islam that is based on jihad, Islam that is based on hard work, Islam that is based on action - these are divine and Islamic teachings for us. Today the important point is that the enemy is designing plots to compensate for the blows he has received in Egypt, Tunisia and other regional countries. We must pay attention to the machinations of the enemy. We must take care not to let them hijack popular revolutions from the people. We must take care not to let them derail these revolutions. Make use of the experiences of others. The enemy does many things in order to derail popular revolutions and neutralize popular movements. The enemy does many things in order to counteract selfless efforts and the blood that has been shed. It is necessary to be careful. It is necessary to be vigilant. You dear youth are the driving force behind these movements. Be vigilant. Be careful. We have gained a lot of experience over the past 32 years. It is 32 years that we have been countering hostilities. We have resisted and overpowered the enemy. [Audience shout \"Allahu Akbar\" and pledge allegiance to the Supreme Leader] The west and America have never refused to hatch plots against the Islamic Republic. If there was something they did not do, it was because they could not do it. They did whatever they could and they have been kicked in the mouth and defeated at every stage. [Audience shout \"death to America\"] The same thing will happen in the future as well. The Islamic Republic will continue foiling all their plots in the future as well. This is something that God has promised us and we do not have any doubts in this regard. We do not doubt the truthfulness of God\'s promise. We do not doubt Allah the Exalted. Allah the Exalted admonishes those who doubt Him. \"And (that) He may punish the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women, and the polytheistic men and the polytheistic women, the entertainers of evil thoughts about Allah. On them is the evil turn, and Allah is wroth with them and has cursed them and prepared hell for them, and evil is the resort.\" [The Holy Quran, 48: 6] God\'s promise is truthful. The Iranian nation has brought all its facilities into the arena and because we are in the battlefield, God will definitely assist us and the same is true of all other countries as well. But we must be vigilant. All of us must be vigilant. All of us must watch out for the machinations designed by the enemies. The enemy tries to counteract our movements and to foment discord. Today the Islamic movement throughout the world of Islam is independent of Shia and Sunni. It is independent of Shafi\'i, Hanafi, Ja\'fari, Maliki, Hanbali and Zeidi schools. It is independent of Arabs, Persians and other ethnicities. Everybody is present in this vast arena. We must try not to let the enemy foment discord among us. There must be a sense of brotherhood among us. We must try to specify our goal. The goal is Islam. The goal is Quranic and Islamic rule. Of course, there are certain differences and similarities among Muslim countries. There is no single paradigm that fits all Islamic countries. In different countries, there are different geographic, historical and social conditions, but there are also certain shared principles: all of us are opposed to the arrogant powers, all of us are opposed to the evil hegemony of the west, all of us are opposed to the cancerous tumor, Israel. [Audience shout \"death to Israel] Wherever it is felt that something is being done which would benefit Israel and America, we must be vigilant. We must know that it is a foreign move. We must know that it is not an insider move. Wherever there is an Islamic, anti-Zionist, anti-arrogance, anti-tyranny and anti-corruption move, that move would be a correct move and all of us would be insiders. Then it would not matter whether we are Shia or Sunni, or whether we are from this or that country. All of us must think in the same way. As an obvious example, notice that today all media companies of the world are trying to isolate the people of Bahrain and their movement. What is the reason? The reason is that the issue is a Shia-Sunni issue: they want to foment discord. They want to draw lines and separate Muslims. There is no difference between pious Muslims who have a tendency towards this or that Islamic denomination. Islam is the aspect that all of these denominations have in common. Unity of Islamic Ummah is the aspect that all of them have in common. [Audience shout \"Allahu Akbar\" and \"unity, Islamic unity\"] The secret behind victory and the continuation of the movement is reliance on God, trust in Him and maintaining unity and cohesion. My dear children, take care not to let the enemy stop your movement. In two different parts of the Holy Quran, Allah the Exalted tells His Messenger to be steadfast. \"Then stand firm in the right way as you are commanded.\" [The Holy Quran, 11: 112] \"And stand firm in the right way as you are commanded.\" [The Holy Quran, 42: 15] God tells the Holy Prophet (s.w.a.) to be steadfast. Being steadfast means continuing one\'s path in a determined way without stopping. This is the secret behind success. We must move forward. This movement is a successful movement because the prospects are bright. The future prospects are bright. By Allah\'s favor, there will be a day when the Islamic Ummah will reach the peak of power and independence. [Audience shout \"humiliation is far from us\"] While preserving their characteristics and differences, Muslim nations should come together under the banner of the call to God and the call to Islam. Then the Islamic Ummah will regain its dignity. We have natural resources in Muslim countries. We have strategic regions. We have numerous natural resources. We have outstanding figures. We have highly skilled and talented manpower. We must make efforts and Allah the Exalted will bless our efforts. I would tell you dear youth that the future belongs to you. By Allah\'s favor, you dear youth will see that day and you will hand down your sources of pride to the future generations. Greetings be upon you and Allah\'s mercy and blessings.

Terrori dhe terrorizmi gjithmone kane qene pjelle e udheheqesve tiran (taghut) dhe kjo dukuri nuk eshte e re madje edhe taghuti i kohes se sone perdore e njejtat metoda per te frikesuar zgjimin e myslimaneve. Por Allahu xh.sh. ka premtuar, dhe premtimin e Tij askush nuk mund ta thyen, se te shtypurit do te ngadhenjejne dhe do te jene trashegimtaret e tokes.

The following is the full text of the speech delivered on October 9, 2013 by Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, in a meeting with participants of the 7th Elite Youth Conference. The meeting was held at Imam Khomeini (r.a.) Hussainiyah. In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful Well, as usual, meeting with you dear youth is very sweet and inspiring for me and it prepares the ground for taking action and implementing policies and plans. Most of the things that the friends mentioned in this meeting was informative and notable. Today, I did not write down what you said because I decided to take the prepared notes of each one of you. By Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, officials in our office - they have heard what I said in this regard now - will collect and categorize the suggestions that you put forward in this meeting. It is necessary for us to pay attention to these suggestions and, by Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, they will receive attention. A number of these suggestions should be submitted to different organizations. A number of the points that the friends made in this meeting requires further explanation. That is to say, it was not clear to me what you meant. For example, one of the friends pointed out that a road map of knowledge should be prepared. I did not understand whether he meant that we should prepare something different from the comprehensive scientific plan on which extensive research has been carried out for a very long time and which has been prepared and implemented. You dear outstanding personalities who have participated in this meeting and all other outstanding personalities who have not participated in this meeting for any reason should know that whatever your field of study of is and whatever area you work on - including the humanities, technological sciences, fundamental sciences, medical sciences, sciences related to health and all other fields of study on which you work - you are the engineers of the future progress of the country. It is you who are building the future of your dear country, Iran. By Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, if you pursue this goal with firm determinations, great efforts and constant follow-up, you will achieve results and you will build the future Iran. The point that I would like to address to you is that you should know the strategy of scientific progress with rapid acceleration is a fundamental strategy for the Islamic Republic. The intellectuals of our country have reached the conclusion that if overcoming difficulties and taking difficult paths in Islamic Iran requires two, three prerequisites, one of them is scientific progress. This is a fundamental policy. This policy has been pursued for about 10-12 years now. Different administrations and officials in charge of such things and outstanding youth have worked and made many efforts in these areas and thankfully today, when we see the results, we become hopeful. I have said many times to the youth, to officials and to you and I would like to say it now: the young individuals and outstanding personalities of our country and our manpower are able to help their country and their people to conquer peaks of progress in different arenas. This capability exists in you. We used to say this based on the experience of other people and the information that we had received from them. But later on, we ourselves experienced this. I have said many times that Iranian youth and Iranian outstanding personalities can carry out all kinds of scientific and technological tasks provided that the necessary infrastructures exist in our country. There is nothing which Iranian talent and outstanding Iranian personalities cannot produce and build, unless the necessary infrastructure does not exist in the country and these infrastructures should be built. Our country enjoys such a high level of capability and talent. Real progress of the country is not possible except with scientific progress. This is the reason why we said our main discourse and policy is this. Real progress cannot be achieved except with scientific progress. A number of countries may offer their natural resources and oil barrels to leading countries in terms of wealth and knowledge and they may buy their products in return. In such countries, a kind of superficial progress may be achieved, but this is not real progress. The real progress is inborn and it is made when a nation depends on its own domestic capabilities. The value of countries, governments and nations depends on this inborn power. If a country makes a leap on its own and if it achieves growth from the inside, this will make this country and this nation valuable, important and respected. But if such growth is not achieved from the inside and if it is achieved with the help of others, then this country will not earn respect. Well, during the time of taghut, it was foreigners and westerners who were prepared to do part of the work related to the nuclear technology in our country and they used to sign certain contracts with Iran. The Bushehr nuclear power plant, which we built with great difficulty after the passage of many years, was supposed to be built by the Germans. Of course, the Germans took the money and did nothing in return and after the Revolution, they did not give us any answer. Now, imagine that such and such a western country builds and manages a nuclear power plant for us and then we benefit from the electricity that such a power plant can generate. This has no dignity and value for a nation. Respect and dignity are achieved when a nation shows its own capabilities. When you develop such a capability, then you can benefit - on an equal footing - from the capabilities of other people, as they benefit from your capabilities. The point that one of the friends in this meeting made was correct. It is evident that a country cannot only rely on its own capabilities in scientific and technological areas. It should borrow from others as well, but this borrowing should not take place in the form of begging. It should take place on an equal footing. You should offer your scientific achievements to others and you should benefit from their scientific achievements. You should offer your technological achievements to other people and you should benefit from their technological achievements. In such circumstances, you will remain respectable in the world. This is what is necessary. I will tell you dear youth - who are the children of the Revolution and the Islamic Republic - that the enmity of the camp which confronts Islamic Iran and shows hostility towards it, is focused on the power of Iran. They do not want Iran to become powerful. You should always pay attention to this fundamental point during all events including political, economic, international, regional and domestic events. You should not forget this point. Today, there is a political and powerful camp in the world which does not want Islamic Iran to turn into a powerful country and nation. Since the beginning of the Revolution, the situation has been like this. I will tell you that in the year 1357, when the Islamic Revolution emerged in Iran and caused that great commotion in the world, a number of outstanding western personalities such as Kissinger, Huntington and Joseph Nye - who are outstanding political personalities in America and Europe - published a series of articles during the early years of the Revolution. These articles and writings warned the western political system and western governments that the Revolution which has been conducted in Iran does not only mean a transfer of power and a change of governments. It means the emergence of a new power in - as they say - the \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Middle East\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" region. I do not at all like this term. They said that a new power is emerging in - as we say - \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"West Asia\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\". This new power may not be on a par with western powers in terms of technology and science, but in terms of political influence in areas surrounding this country, it is either better than or as good as western powers and it will challenge them. These outstanding personalities warned western powers about this. This means that, in their opinion, the emergence of this power would put an end to or at least weaken western influence in this sensitive, wealthy and very strategic region which connects three continents to one another and which is the center of oil, wealth and important and necessary minerals. The West has made many efforts to achieve political, economic and - naturally - cultural domination over this region. At that time, these outstanding western personalities guessed that this would happen and of course, they guessed correctly. Today, after the passage of more than three decades, the nightmare which they have been suffering from is gradually coming true. That is to say, a great national and regional power has emerged which has not been defeated by different economic, security, political and psychological pressures. On the contrary, this power has managed to influence regional nations, to establish and promote communal Islamic culture and to help regional nations have a sense of identity. The events which occurred two years ago in our region were very important events. You can see how westerners reacted to such events. The events in Egypt, North African and West Asian countries were very important events. The awakening of nations with empty hands and their resistance against the humiliation which the West and America in particular had imposed on these nations with the help of their agents were very great events. Of course, it has not come to an end. Westerners think that they have suppressed this Islamic Awakening but in our opinion, it has not been suppressed. This was a historical juncture and the region is passing through this historical juncture. The fate of this Awakening has not been sealed yet and westerners themselves know this. This can be seen in their analysis of Islamic Awakening and they are still concerned about it. They do not know what is happening in the region. This happened thanks to the uprising of the Iranian nation, the victory of the Revolution and the formation of the Islamic Republic which manifested the emergence of a national, deep-rooted, religious, steadfast, talented and developing power. Now, on each branch of scientific, technological and research areas you outstanding personalities throughout the country work, you are valuable constituents of this great order which is fulfilling this historical mission. Today, you have shouldered this great responsibility. What is important is that your movement should not stop progressing. What is important is that your movement should continue without any interruption or pause in the middle of the way. The same is true of all important social, political and military movements. When a movement starts, when a great and long-term task begins, you should not let any pause and interruption take place in the middle of the way. During the Sacred Defense Era, we saw this with our own eyes when we were engaged in battle. During the war, when a movement started, it would achieve victory if it was not stopped. But if our determination was undermined in the middle of the way, if there were doubts, if we showed laziness and if there was a pause or interruption in our work, it would lead to frustration and defeat. You should not let this rapid scientific movement stop progressing. Of course, I am addressing all people involved in this issue, both you dear youth and different organizations including the Ministry of Science, the Ministry of Health and the Vice Presidency for Scientific and Technological Affairs. You dear youth work hard, acquire knowledge, carry out research and engage in self-edification and often, you carry out interesting and outstanding work. The statements that you made in this meeting is part of this work. Work is not only physical. Offering thoughts, ideas and opinions and making an effort in order to put forward excellent suggestions are among the best pieces of work. The Vice Presidency for Scientific and Technological Affairs is a very important organization and what it does is very sensitive. A few years ago, this organization was formed at my insistence and later on, the National Elites Foundation was formed. There were certain people who rendered genuine services such as Mrs. Soltankhah and Mr. Vaezzadeh. And today, Mr. Sattari, who is the son of a martyr, is in charge of this vice presidency and this foundation. My advice to the officials in charge of Vice Presidency for Scientific and Technological Affairs and the National Elites Foundation is that they should pursue the matter. You should not start to do things all over again. Outstanding work has been carried out in this regard. You should move forward according to such work. You should try to find and remove shortcomings and weak points and you should not forget about your strong points. In my opinion, the most important thing which these two organizations can do is that they should focus their efforts on preparing the ground for innovation. Innovation is very important. This process of innovation should not be stopped. Each step should bring about another step. Constant follow-up is necessary in order to preserve the process of innovation in the country. The honorable officials who are in charge of Vice Presidency for Scientific and Technological Affairs should constantly follow up this scientific process in the country. They should see where problems and hurdles lie and they should resolve them. The Supreme Council of Cultural Revolution - which, of course, deals with these issues within the remit of its responsibilities - is important. The Vice Presidency for Scientific and Technological Affairs, which is an organization for coordinating other organizations, other scientific organizations in the country - that is to say, these two ministries - research centers and different scientific and technological centers in charge of implementing these policies should all act in a coordinated and well-organized way. Any kind of disorder and disharmony should be removed. Of course, our scientific growth is very good on a regional and international level. Our absolute growth rate is good and we enjoy a very fast rate of scientific growth, however this is not the sole standard. This rate of scientific growth should be preserved. This rate of scientific growth does not mean that we have achieved or are close to achieving our goal because we used to be very backward. And the world does not wait for us to move forward. It does not sit and watch. The world is constantly moving forward as well. Of course, the rate of our scientific growth is faster [than the global average] and we should preserve it. If this rate of scientific growth is preserved, there will be this hope that we can conquer peaks and reach front lines and, as I said many times, our country and our scientific centers can be reference points for the world. This should happen and, by Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, it will happen. Of course, I do not think that this will happen in five, ten, fifteen years. No, this is not the case. A few years ago, I said that you can picture this future in 40, 50 years when everyone in the world has to learn Farsi if they want to have access to new scientific achievements. Your efforts should be focused on this. You should do something to make others need your knowledge and learn your language in order to acquire the knowledge that you have. This is possible. The late Dr. Chamran was an outstanding scientific personality. In the present time, he is known for war tactics, martyrdom, military expertise and other such things, but he was also an outstanding scientific personality. He studied at an outstanding American university, but later on, he left this university and went to Lebanon and - after that - to his own country to engage in jihad. He used to tell me that in American universities - including the university that he was studying in - there were few outstanding students and the number of Iranians among them was larger than other nationalities. Iranians are more talented than the global average. We have repeatedly heard this from other people and, as I said, in the present time experience shows that this is true. The point which I have stressed from the beginning and which has not been properly addressed yet is the issue of the connection between science and industry, between universities and industries and between research centers and industrial centers. Of course, it is several years that I see this issue has been addressed by students, outstanding personalities and officials. This is a very important point. We have a scientific community and an industrial community. Our industrial community is thirsty for having access to the scientific and research achievements of our universities and research centers. And our scientific organizations need a market to consume their scientific achievements so that their enthusiasm continues to flow like a bubbling spring. In the present time, there is not a reasonable and complete relationship between these two communities. If we manage to establish a strong relationship between industries and universities, between industries and research centers or - in the general sense of the word - between industry and science, this will lead to the growth of industrial centers and the blossoming of our universities. Our industrial centers can turn to universities in order to solve their problems. As well as solving their problems, they can utilize the scientific achievements of universities in their industries. Our universities too can begin to flow smoothly. This is like a dam which has been built, but which does not have an irrigation system. Well, this dam has no value. Half of the work that we should do is to build certain walls and gather water behind these walls. The other half is to build an irrigation system so that the water behind these walls can flow to areas and lands which in are in need of water. This should be done. Of course, companies and factories should turn to scientific centers more than the past and scientific centers too should prepare themselves more than the past. Each year, we should witness hundreds of research projects - which are requested by industrial centers - in universities and scientific centers. Of course, these requested projects should address domestic needs. In my opinion, today one of our great weak points is that our scientific centers are after foreign projects. Even many youth, professors and other academic people sometimes acknowledge this. Such projects are not things that the country needs. I do not want to say that this is absolutely forbidden, but if you sit and work on certain scientific and research projects in order to meet the needs of such and such a scientific and technological organization in the world - which will buy these projects at a low price - this is not a major achievement. You should see what our domestic needs are, how your research - particularly the research that Ph.D. students and students at higher levels carry out - can help the country and what gaps it can fill. Therefore, there should be a great and serious competition in the area of innovation. There should be a competition, in the real sense of the word, whether in scientific or in technological areas. In graduate theses, particularly doctoral theses, one of the points which should definitely receive attention is innovation. In these theses, it should be clear in which areas innovation occurs and this should be the standard for evaluation. The National Elites Foundation should work in a serious way to create an environment for scientific enthusiasm. If this happens, the Iranian specialists who live outside Iran will be excited to come to their country and the talented Iranian youth will find the enthusiasm to stay in their own homeland and render services to their own country. There is a fundamental and important point in this regard which is piety and self-purification. The capabilities of outstanding personalities in our country - including young men and women and their professors - will increase in the shade of piety, self-purification and attention to God. Their capabilities will increase and they can easily make achievements. One of the greatest advantages that you have is youthful purity. This is not a permanent thing. During youth, there is a kind of purity and enlightenment which makes it easy for an individual to enjoy divine mercy. If Allah the Exalted opens up the path for individuals, if He smoothes the way for them and prepares the ground, they will achieve their goals more easily. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" [The Holy Quran, 92: 7]. You should appreciate the value of the piety, purity, faith and enlightenment which exist in you and which prepare the ground for spirituality. You should ask Allah the Exalted to help you and your country. By Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, we will be able to reach the desired point for our country and our nation. By Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s favor, I will always pray for you, as I have prayed for you so far. Greetings be upon you and Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s mercy and blessings

This session: - The legitimacy of the Wali-e-Faqih - The acceptability of the Wali-e-Faqih - Role of Allah, Prophet, and Imam - Who is a Taghut? Hujjatul Islam Qasemi is a Howza teacher in Qom, Iran.

The reality of Arba\\\\\\\'een is that today, it is the greatest weapon against Kufr and Shirk. Ustad Ansarian explains this concept. The enemy today feels threatened of this annual gathering of 20-25 million believers. The movement of Imam Husayn (A) continues to haunt the taghut, yazid, tyrants and oppressors of all times.

Shaykh Hamza speaks about Imam Khomeini (ra) and the effect he has had on us till now.

What was the purpose and goal of prophets? What did they want to achieve? Did they have a plan for human society? Did they strive to establish a divine civilization? Is war bad under all circumstances? What does Quran say? Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei provides us with a short interpretation of the following verse of the Holy Quran. Chapter 4 (al-Nisa), Verse 76: “Those who have faith fight in the way of Allah, while those who disbelieve fight in the way of Taghut (rebels fighting God). So, fight the friends (associates/supporters) of Satan. Surely, Satan’s strategy (plot) is weak.” #ShortTafsir #Interpretation #Quran #Concepts #Beliefs

The armies of the Islamic Resistance are ready and eager to confront the enemies of Imam Mahdi (A). A great battle lies ahead of us… The question is: are you ready? Shaykh Muzaffer Abbas Hyder gives a brilliant overview of the recent events in Sheikh Jarrah, Jerusalem Al-Quds and reminds us of why the noble cause of Palestine is so incredibly significant. Despite all the oppression that the world faces today, we must recognize that we are at a tremendous turning point in human history. Victory lies ahead for the believers and for all those who belong to the Camp of the Oppressed. Palestine will be free INSHALLAH sooner than you think and a global revolution is in the making. Now is the time to free yourselves completely from the shackles of the Taghut and rise up. #BACKFIRE #Palestine #FreePalestine #SheikhJarrah #israel #DeathToisrael #DeathToZionism #israHell #FlyTheFlag #KhameneiTheGreat #Khamenei

عصر غیبت میں ولایت فقیہ کا نظام آئمہ اطہار علیہم السلام کی طرف سے دیا گیا ایک عظیم الہی نظام اور نعمت ہے. ایک ایسا فقیہ جس میں آئمہ معصومین علیہم السلام کی طرف سے بتائی گئی تمام شرائط پائی جاتی ہوں ایک ایسا فقیہ دین کا محافظ اور طاغوت کی آنکھوں کا کانٹا ہوتا ہے. ایک ایسا عادل، مدبر اور شجاع فقیہ امت کو شیطانی طاقتوں کی طرف سے پھیلائی گئی تاریکیوں سے نکالتا ہے اور انہیں ہدایت اور روشنی کی جانب ہدایت کرتا ہے. اسی لیے آج کی شیطانی طاقتیں اور اس کے نمک خوار اس نظام کے خلاف برسرپیکار نظر آتے ہیں. اس حوالے سے عارف باللہ آیت اللہ حسن زادہ آملی رضوان اللہ علیہ کے بیانات سے استفادہ کرنے کے لیے اس ویڈیو کا مشاہدہ کیجئے. #ویڈیو #ولایت #نعمت_عظمی #انقلاب #رہبر #پاکیزہ #قدر #ولی_فقیہ

Why is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia considered to be the worst country in the world? Who are under the Wilayat (authority/guardianship) of the Taghuti Powers? What all have the Taghuti Powers done to help the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? Who is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia losing to in their current War on Yemen? And who is supporting the insecurity that is present in the West Asian region? Finally, what will happen to all the equipment and facilities being provided by the Taghuti Powers to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? The Leader of the Muslim Ummah, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, and Shaheed Haj Qasem speak to us about those under the Wilayat of the Taghuti Powers.

شہدا اور مجاہدین فی سبیل اللہ جہاں اپنی جانوں کے ذریعے طاغوتوں کے خلاف برسرپیکار رہتے وہاں پر فداکار اور شہدا کے شانہ بشانہ خدمات انجام دینے والی خواتین اور دیگر افراد کا کردار بھی مثالی اور قابل ذکر ہوتا ہے یہ خدمات ایسے کڑے وقت میں راہ خدا میں برسرپیکار جوانوں کے نہ فقط حوصلوں کو بلند کرتی ہیں بلکہ اپنی خدمات کے ذریعے حق و باطل کے اس محاذ میں اپنا گرانبہا کردار ادا کر رہے ہوتے ہیں. اسلامی انقلاب کے دوران اور آٹھ سالہ دفاع مقدس کے دوران پیش کی جانے والی یہ خدمات، محنتیں اور مشقتیں تمام حق و باطل کے محاذوں پر برسرپیکار اقوام اور مکتب عاشورہ کے پیروکاروں کے لیے نمونہ عمل ہیں. اس بارے میں مزید جاننے کے لیے اس ویڈیو کا مشاہدہ کیجئے. #ویڈیو #منفردخصوصیات #خدمات #عوامیمراکز #جنگیآذوقے #محرکات #خونآلودلباس #حوضخون #مشقت
