Regarding the role and duty of women in a society that remembers the martyrs through their actions, the Ayatollah advised: “The propagation and promotion of hijab and modesty in the Islamic society, a point that the martyrs heavily emphasised as well, is a responsibility which should be attended to by the women of the society and we must be capable of becoming a role model for all the Islamic countries.”
