On the occasion of the birthday anniversary of Hazrat Fatima Zahra (PBUH), the daughter of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei received thousands of panegyrists and eulogists at Tehran\u2019s Imam Khomeini Husaynia on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Stressing on the significant role of the panegyrists and eulogists, he said\u00a0the most important duty of them is building culture and deepening Islamic teachings and understanding in society especially among the youth.<\/p>\n
“An important need in Iran today is for our youth to be equipped with the tools of soft war, i.e. spiritual and mental power. I insist on achieving a Strong Iran, a part of which is arming our youth with correct thinking, as frequently mentioned in the teachings of the AhlulBayt.”<\/p>\n
“The Iranian nation’s strong endurance under the pressure of sanctions amazes the world. Other nations couldn\u2019t tolerate even a fifth of such pressure imposed by the U.S. monster. This is thanks to the AhlulBayt\u2019s teachings and owing to Lady Fatima Zahra and Hussain bin Ali (pbut).”<\/p>\n
“Praise be to God, a heroic spirit is alive in our country. People are enthusiastically and devotedly present on the scene. To increase this heroic spirit, it is necessary to cultivate this culture. This is a task for the eulogists.”<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, the important need of our country is for our youth to be equipped with various weapons and means of soft war, which consist of willpower and the power of reason,\u201d the Leader said in a Saturday meeting with religious orators.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have repeatedly said about the need to strengthen the country,\u201d Ayatollah Khamenei said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the central components of this is to equip the youth with the means of thought and correct insight in the knowledge of the Ahl al-Bayt,\u201d he added, referring to the progeny of the Prophet (PBUH).<\/p>\n
\u201cThe young generation, in which we have many hopes \u2013 because the future of the country is in your hands \u2013 has to be firm like steel, with strong will and insight in order to know what it wants to do and how to achieve it,\u201d the Leader said.<\/p>\n
Achieving that, Ayatollah Khamenei said, \u201crequires knowledge of the Ahl al-Bayt which vaccinates society, the Islamic establishment, and Muslims\u201d.<\/p>\n
Religious orators in the Shia tradition, known as \u201cMadah\u201d in Farsi, play a central role in organizing religious ceremonies in Iran, most notably for mourning the martyrdom of the third Shia Imam and the grandson of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).<\/p>\n
Imam Hussein (AS) was martyred along with dozens of his companions during a last-stand battle against the tyrant of the time, Yazid I, I in 680 AD.<\/p>\n
The Leader likened mourning ceremonies following the assassination of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani and his comrades earlier in January to mourning held for Imam Hussein.<\/p>\n
\u201cMourning for the martyrs is not a sign of weakness; it is a mourning that demonstrates resolve and determination which illustrates the sacred emotions of a human being amidst the battle field,\u201d Ayatollah Khamenei said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the recent funerals for our dear martyr, you can see what a major event unfolded across the country; not only in our country but also beyond it,\u201d the Leader said.<\/p>\n
Ayatollah Khamenei added that \u201cthis is what is meant by guiding mourning ceremonies; you need to guide mourning ceremonies of the people in such ways which are in line with the Ahl al-Bayt and is needed by the society\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe endurance of the Iranian nation against the wild American monster – which has stunned international observers \u2013 stems from such knowledge,\u201d of the Ahl al-Bayt, the Leader added.<\/p>\n
Ayatollah Khamenei noted that the Islamic teaching to trust God and not fear the enemies had enabled Iran to achieve progress throughout the years despite enemy schemes.<\/p>\n
\u201cNobody would believe that Iran would reach its current status in regards to its political status and regional influence and progress in scientific and technological fields in the early days of the Islamic Revolution,\u201d the Leader said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, the Iranian nation put its trust in God. did not fear any power and was able to achieve such progress,\u201d Ayatollah Khamenei said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
