دیدار مردم آذربایجان با رهبر انقلاب
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای رهبر معظم انقلاب اسلامی صبح امروز (چهارشنبه) در دیدار هزاران نفر از علماء، مسئولان و قشرهای مختلف مردم آذربایجان، با اشاره به حضور دهها میلیونی و بسیار پرشورتر و با نشاطتر مردم در راهپیمایی 22 بهمن امسال، چرائی این اعجابآفرینی و عظمت ملت عزیز ایران را، بصیرت و موقعشناسی بینظیر آنان دانستند و تأكید كردند: ملت ایران با این بصیرت، ایستادگی و حضور بههنگام در صحنه، هیچگاه شكست نخواهد خورد و در انتخابات 12 اسفند نیز ملت بار دیگر هوشیاری و موقعشناسی خود را نشان خواهد داد و با حضور پرشور و فراوان خود در انتخابات مجلس نهم، ضربه سخت دیگری به دشمن خواهد زد.
در این دیدار كه در آستانه 29 بهمن، سالروز قیام مردم تبریز بر ضد رژیم ستمشاهی در سال 1356، برگزار شد، رهبر انقلاب اسلامی حوادث مهم انقلاب اسلامی را درسآموز و شاخصهای عمده در مسیر حركت بسوی قلهها و اهداف برشمردند و با اشاره به راهپیمایی عظیم ملت ایران در 22 بهمن افزودند: امسال همه تأكید داشتند كه حضور مردم در راهپیمایی 22 بهمن در سراسر كشور، نسبت به سالهای قبل، پرشورتر و با نشاطتر بوده است اما سؤال مهم این است كه چرا امسال شاهد چنین حضور با عظمتتری بودیم؟
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای خاطرنشان كردند: پاسخ به این سؤال جز به بصیرت و موقعشناسی كمنظیر مردم بر نمیگردد زیرا ملت ایران امسال احساس كرد كه كشور و نظام و اسلام به این حضور نیازمند است.
ایشان با اشاره به تبلیغات پرحجم و گسترده رسانهها و دستگاههای تبلیغاتی جبهه دشمن عنود و شریر، تحت هدایت شبكه صهیونیستی جهانی، تأكید كردند: هدف اصلی تبلیغات متراكم، القای این دروغ بزرگ بود كه ملت شجاع، مؤمن و امتحان داده ایران، نسبت به انقلاب، اسلام و اهداف والای خود سست و بیانگیزه شده است.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی افزودند: تمركز این تبلیغات هم بر روی راهپیمایی 22 بهمن بود تا شاید حضور مردم كمرنگ و بیرونق شود اما ملت ایران با بصیرت و موقعشناسی اعجاببرانگیز ، متوجه این ترفند دشمن شد و با حضور عظیم خود در راهپیمایی 22 بهمن امسال، به دهان دشمن كوبید.
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای با اشاره به گزارشهای موثق درخصوص حضور بسیار پرشور و گسترده مردم در راهپیمایی 22 بهمن در هشتصد و پنجاه شهر كشور خاطرنشان كردند: این ملت ایران است. این ملت با چنین بصیرت و موقعشناسی و حضور در صحنه، شكست نخواهد خورد.
ایشان تأكید كردند: آنهایی كه باید پیام این حضور با عظمت مردم ایران در راهپیمایی 22 بهمن را بگیرند، گرفتند و آنهایی كه در مغزهای الكلی و آفتدیده خود، خیالاتی در سر میپروراندند، متوجه شدند كه در ایران چه خبر است و ملت قهرمان ایران چگونه در صحنه حاضر است.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی با اشاره به تلاش دستگاههای تبلیغاتی جبهه استكبار برای منعكس نشدن حقیقت و عظمت حضور مردم افزودند: كسانی كه مدعی آزادی اطلاعات و اخبار هستند، اخبار مربوط به این راهپیمایی را سانسور كردند و راهپیمایان میلیونی تهران را هزاران نفر و جمعیت دهها میلیونی كشور در راهپیمایی را صدها هزار نفر عنوان كردند.
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای تأكید كردند: دشمن همواره از ابتدای پیروزی انقلاب اسلامی، انواع شیوههای دروغپردازی، تقلب، خدعه و تزویر را بكار گرفته است اما هنگامی كه پیام صادقانه یك ملت از دل برآید، كار خود را خواهد كرد و احساس حضور و انقلابیگری و حركت همراه با عزم راسخ، همچون هوای خوش بهاری در همه جا نفوذ و همه را بهرهمند خواهد كرد.
ایشان افزودند: نمونه آشكار این واقعیت، تحولات اخیر در شمال آفریقا، و كشورهای عربی و دنیای اسلام و فراگیر شدن شعارهایی است كه روزی ملت ایران، مظلومانه آنها را سر میداد.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی تأكید كردند: اسلام در حركت عظیم خود به نقطه حساسی رسیده است و نسلهای آینده شاهد حوادث مهمی خواهند بود كه دنیا را دگرگون خواهد كرد و سیاستهای مسلط مادی مستكبرانه را نیز از بین خواهد برد.
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای خاطرنشان كردند: كانون اصلی این حركت، جمهوری اسلامی ایران است و جوشش اولیه آن هم از ایران بوده و ملت ایران همچنان ایستاده است.
ایشان، ایستادگی ملت ایران را رمز موفقیت و دستاوردهای بزرگ نظام اسلامی دانستند و افزودند: هنگامی كه ملتی میایستد و در مقابل شبكه پرهیمنه و پرهیاهو دشمن به خود ترس و واهمه راه نمیدهد، در عرصههای علم و فناوری، اقتصاد، مسائل اجتماعی، سیاستورزی بینالمللی و تأثیرگذاری بر ملتها، پیشرفت خواهد كرد و تفكر، دین و شعارش فراگیر خواهد شد.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی تأكید كردند: به لطف خداوند و به بركت این ایستادگی و استحكام درونی ملت ایران، جوانان ، با همتها و استقامت خود كشور را همانند دسته گل خواهند ساخت و آن را تبدیل به یك الگوی موفق و پیشرفته برای جهان اسلام خواهند كرد.
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای لازمه پیشرفت و سازندگی كشور را، استمرار حركت در مسیر صراط مستقیم الهی و راه اسلام، دیانت و شریعت و حفظ هوشیاری و بصیرت و عمل به وظیفه دانستند و با اشاره به انتخابات پیش روی مجلس نهم افزودند: دستگاههای تبلیغاتی و رسانههای جبهه استكبار و عوامل همیشگی آنها، تلاش گستردهای را آغاز كردهاند تا انتخابات مجلس، انتخابات بیرونقی باشد اما همه باید بدانند كه حضور مردم در انتخابات، كشور را به پیش خواهد برد و دشمن را در اجرای توطئههایش دچار تردید و تزلزل و وادار به عقب نشینی خواهد كرد. ایشان تأكید كردند: انتخابات پرشور ضربه سختی به دشمن خواهد بود.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی با تأكید بر اینكه دلهای مردم در دست خدا است، افزودند: با عنایت و كمك خداوند متعال، انتخابات مجلس نهم پرشور و با احساس و همراه با بصیرت و حضور فراوان مردم، برگزار خواهد شد.
رهبر انقلاب اسلامی اظهار امیدواری كردند نتیجه انتخابات دوازدهم اسفند، انتخاب مجلس و نمایندگانی خوب برای ورود به عرصه كار و خدمت باشد.
حضرت آیتالله خامنهای در بخش دیگری از سخنان خود با اشاره به نقش و جایگاه آذربایجان و بویژه تبریز در حوادث و تحولات یكصد سال گذشته كشور، افزودند: مهمترین ویژگی قهرمانان و نامآوران تبریز همچون ستارخان و باقرخان، تدین و حركت در مسیر دین و پیروی از علمای دین بوده است.
ایشان همچنین با اشاره به نقشآفرینی علما و مردم آذربایجان و تبریز در نهضت اسلامی و حوادث مربوط به پیروزی انقلاب اسلامی و بعد از آن، خاطرنشان كردند: تقدیم دو شهید محراب از میان پنج شهید محراب، و شجاعت و خطشكنی لشكر دلاور و قهرمان عاشورا در دوران دفاع مقدس نمونههایی از كارنامه درخشان و برجسته مردم آذربایجان است.
در ابتدای این دیدار آیتالله مجتهد شبستری نماینده ولی فقیه و امامجمعه تبریز در سخنانی ضمن گرامیداشت قیام 29 بهمن در سال 1356، به پیشگامی مردم آذربایجان در عرصههای مختلف انقلاب اسلامی اشاره كرد و گفت: مردم غیور و بابصیرت آذربایجان، در انتخابات 12 اسفند نیز حماسهای فراموشنشدنی خلق خواهند كرد.

Supreme Leader: Massive Voter Turnout Harms Enemies
15/02/2012
Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution met today with thousands of religious scholars, government officials and ordinary citizens from East Azerbaijan. At the meeting, His Eminence referred to the upcoming parliamentary elections and said that the enemies are making widespread efforts to discourage the people from taking part in the elections. He added that massive presence of the people in the elections will harm the enemy and force him to back down.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that the enthusiastic and massive presence of the people in the demonstrations marking the victory of the Islamic Revolution is indicative of the extraordinary insight of the Iranian people. \"With this insight, the Iranian nation will never be defeated. In the elections that will be held on March 2, the people of Iran will once again prove their vigilance and their awareness of the requirements of time. And they will deal another serious blow to the enemy with their enthusiastic and massive presence in the 9th parliamentary elections.\"
Ayatollah Khamenei added: \"This year everybody was stressing that the people had a more enthusiastic presence in the nationwide demonstrations marking the 22nd of Bahman, but the important question is: why were the demonstrations so massive this year?\"
Ayatollah Khamenei said: \"The answer to this question is related to nothing but the extraordinary insight of the people and their awareness of the requirements of time because the people of Iran felt that our country, our government and Islam need their presence in the demonstrations.\"
His Eminence referred to the widespread propaganda by the enemies, led by the network of global Zionism, and stressed that the main goal of this propaganda is to promote the lie that the courageous and pious people of Iran are disappointed at the Revolution and Islam.
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution added: \"These propaganda efforts were focused on the demonstrations of the 22nd of Bahman in the hope that they would discourage the people from participating in the demonstrations, but the Iranian nation discovered this plot thanks to its insight and its awareness of the requirements of time. With their massive presence in the demonstrations marking the 22nd of Bahman, the people of Iran kicked the enemy in the mouth.\"
His Eminence stressed: \"The message of this massive presence of the Iranian people in the demonstrations was delivered to those who should have received the message.\"
He added that those who were cherishing illusions regarding Iran realized the nature of the events that are happening in Iran.
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the propaganda machines of the arrogant powers tried to impose a news blackout on the great and massive presence of the people in the demonstrations. He added: \"Those who claim to support free flow of information censored the reports related to these demonstrations.\"
Ayatollah Khamenei stressed: \"Since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution, the enemy has utilized different methods to deceive and to promote lies, but when the people of a nation express a message from the bottom of their heart, that message proves effective.\"
His Eminence said that the slogans which used to be shouted by the Iranian nation are spreading to other parts of the world of Islam, further adding: \"Islam has reached a sensitive point in its great movement and future generations will witness important events which will transform the world of Islam and annihilate the dominant and materialistic policies of the arrogant powers.\"
Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the wave of Islamic Awakening in the world and added: \"The Islamic Republic of Iran was the original source of this movement.\"
His Eminence said that the resistance of the Iranian nation is the secret behind the success and achievements of the Islamic Republic of Iran. He added: \"When a nation stands up against the enemy\'s fearsome network without feeling afraid, it makes progress in science, it makes progress in economic areas, it makes progress in social matters, its youth become vigilant, it gains influence over other nations, and its ideas, religion and slogans spread to all parts of the world.\"

Enemies Should Learn from Their Past Failures - Vali Amr Muslimeen - Farsi

18/06/2012 - Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution met this morning with a group of government officials and ambassadors of Islamic countries on the occasion of Mab\'ath. Speaking at the meeting, His Eminence said that the enemies of the Islamic Republic should learn a lesson from their past failures against the Iranian nation. \"Our enemies do not want to learn from their past experiences. They should know that obstinacy, arrogance, self-importance and unreasonable expectations will not get them anywhere against the Iranian nation.\"
His Eminence referred to the crimes committed by the bullying powers in the regional countries and added that the domineering powers do not have any respect for humanity.
Referring to the economic problems of Europe and the world, he said: \"Today solving the problems of the people is not an issue for Europe. They are only trying to solve the problems of capitalists and owners of banks.\"
Ayatollah Khamenei reiterated: \"The cause of all these problems is the system of hegemony, the existence of two poles: those who dominate and those who are dominated. If the domineering powers did not exist, the system of hegemony would be annihilated. Similarly, if those who are dominated refused to give in to domination, the system of hegemony would fall apart.\"
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the bullying powers of the world are making constant efforts to control and derail the regional revolutions. He added: \"Nations should make use of the divine blessing of wisdom and thinking. They should trust themselves and their power. They should trust God.\"
He stated that if nations stand up against the arrogant powers and resist, they will definitely achieve victory. He referred to the Iranian nation as an example of a nation that has stood up against the global powers.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that the arrogant powers have formed a unified front against the Islamic Republic in order to prevent it from becoming a role model for resistance and progress.
Stressing the necessity of unity in the world of Islam, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the enemies of Islam are trying to turn Shia and Sunni against each other. He criticized those who foment discord in the Muslim world and stressed: \"Acting in line with the wishes of the intelligence services of America and Israel, those who believe neither in Shia Islam, nor in Sunni Islam, nor in the essence of Islam express concerns about the spread of Shia Islam.\"

Saudi Ayatollah Nimr Al-Nimr Dares Saudi Regime to Attack Iran and Declares: We Are Loyal to Allah, Not to Saudi Arabia or its Royal Family Following are excerpts from a Friday sermon delivered by Saudi Ayatollah Nimr Al-Nimr, which was posted on the Internet on October 7, 2011. Nimr Baqir Al-Nimr is from the city of Awwamiyah in the eastern part of Saudi Arabia. He is an outspoken Shia cleric known for his criticism of the Saudi government and his constant call for freedom of religion, equality, and justice for the Shia minority in Saudi Arabia. In 2009, Al-Nimr said that the dignity of the Saudi Shia is more precious than the unity of the land, and suggested that Saudi Shia might secede from Saudi Arabia. Fearing arrest, Al-Nimr currently is in hiding. Nimr Al-Nimr: �For the past 100 years, we have been subjected to oppression, injustice, fear, and intimidation. From the moment you are born, you are surrounded by fear, intimidation, persecution, and abuse. We were born into an atmosphere of intimidation. We feared even the walls. Who among us is not familiar with the intimidation and injustice to which we have been subjected in this country? I am 55 years old, more than half a century. From the day I was born and to this day, I�ve never felt safe or secure in this country. �You are always being accused of something. You are always under threat. The head of the State Security Service admitted this to me in person. He said to me when I was arrested: �All you Shi�ites should be killed.� That is their logic. The head of the State Security Service in the Eastern Province said so himself. [...] �They are still plotting to carry out a massacre. They are more than welcome. We are here. Our blood is a small price to pay in defense of our values. We do not fear death. We long for martyrdom. [...] �A few months ago, the flame of honor was sparked in the spirits of the youth. The torch of freedom was lit. The people took to the streets demanding reform, honor, and freedom. There are people who have been held in prison unjustly for more than 16 years. In addition, the Peninsula Shield Force and the Saudi army invaded Bahrain. Then there were more and more arrests. �So who was it who instigated strife and unrest? [...] �The strife and unrest in Awwamiya were instigated by the regime, not the people. [...] �We will continue to defend both the veteran and the new prisoners. We will stand by them. We don�t mind being arrested, and joining them. We don�t even mind shedding our blood for their sake. We will continue to express even stronger solidarity with Bahrain. It is our own kin in Bahrain. Even if the Saudi army and the Peninsula Shield Force had not intervened, it still would have been our duty to stand by the people of Bahrain, our kin, let alone when the Saudi army takes part in oppression, the killing, the violation of women�s honor, and the plundering of money. [...] �[The Saudi regime says] that we are acting �at the behest of a foreign country.� They use that false pretext. By �foreign country� they mean Iran, of course. You can�t really tell if it�s Iran, Turkey, a European country, or the U.S., but they usually mean Iran. In December 1978, there was an Intifada to defend the honor of Awwamiya, when the riot police attacked the town. This was on December 10, 1978, before the Shah was deposed, before the Islamic Republic of Iran was even established. �It was in 1978 � four months before the fall of the Shah. A group of people convened to perform the religious rite of taziyeh for Imam Hussein. It had nothing to do with political or security matters, but the security forces arrived and attacked them, and a confrontation ensued. People were defending themselves, as well as their faith and their honor. That night, they arrested 100 people. This was in December 1978, prior to the fall of the Iranian [Shah].

Saudi Ayatollah Nimr Al-Nimr Dares Saudi Regime to Attack Iran and Declares: We Are Loyal to Allah, Not to Saudi Arabia or its Royal Family Following are excerpts from a Friday sermon delivered by Saudi Ayatollah Nimr Al-Nimr, which was posted on the Internet on October 7, 2011. Nimr Baqir Al-Nimr is from the city of Awwamiyah in the eastern part of Saudi Arabia. He is an outspoken Shia cleric known for his criticism of the Saudi government and his constant call for freedom of religion, equality, and justice for the Shia minority in Saudi Arabia.

Now we shall take up the different forms of tahrif.
There are various kinds of tahrif, the most important of which are tahrif in words and tahrif of meaning. Tahrif of wording occurs when the literal form of a statement is changed. For instance, when words and phrases are deleted or added to a statement or the sequence of sentences is altered in such a manner as to change its meaning. In this case tahrif occurs in the outward form and wording of a statement
Tahrif of meaning occurs when one does not change the words, which remain in their original form, but the statement is interpreted in a manner that is contrary to the intent of its speaker. It is interpreted in such a manner as to express one\\\\\\\'s own intent, not that of its author.
The Noble Qur\\\\\\\'an employs the term tahrif specifically in relation to the Jews. A study of history shows that they have been the champions of tahrif throughout the course of history. I don\\\\\\\'t know what kind of race this is that has such an amazing penchant for misrepresenting facts! Accordingly they always take up professions in which they can distort and misrepresent events. From what I have heard, the world\\\\\\\'s well-known news agencies, which are perpetually quoted by the radios and newspapers, are exclusively in the hands of the Jews. Why? Because they can report the events as they wish. How amazing is the Qur\\\\\\\'an\\\\\\\'s statement about them! This characteristic of the Jews, the tendency for tahrif, is considered a racial trait by the Qur\\\\\\\'an. In one of the verses of the Sura al-baqarah, the Qur\\\\\\\'an declares:
Are you then eager that they (i.e. the Jews) should believe in you, while a party of them had heard Allah\\\\\\\'s word, and then consciously misinterpreted it, after they had understood it, and did that knowingly? (2:75) [1]
This means, \\\\\\\'O Muslims, have you pinned your hopes on their telling you the truth? They are the same people who would go along with Moses, and hear God\\\\\\\'s pronouncements. But by the time they returned to their people\\\\\\\'s midst to recount what they had heard, they would twist it out of shape.\\\\\\\' The tahrif that they would carry out was not for the reason that they did not understand and so altered what they reported. No! They are an intelligent people and they understand matters the issues very well. But despite the fact that they understand what they have heard they would recount them in a distorted manner for the people. This is what tahrif is, that is, distorting and twisting things out of their original shape-and they carried out tahrif even in Divine scriptures!
In this context, in most of the cases the Qur\\\\\\\'an uses the very term tahrif or expresses the matter in some other manner. However, the exegetes have pointed out that the Qur\\\\\\\'anic reference to tahrif in this context includes tahrif in wording as well as in meaning. That is, some of the instances of corruption that have occurred [in the scriptures at the hands of the Jews] relating to the wording and some of them relate to the meanings and interpretation. As this involves a digression from my main topic, I do not wish to discuss this matter any further.

A worse fabrication is the one mentioned by Hajji Nuri. As you know, in the heat of the battle on the day of \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ashura\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\', the Imam offered his prayers hurriedly in the form of salat al-khawf. The Shari\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ah stipulates certain modifications in the obligatory salat, the daily ritual prayers, when offered in conditions of war and danger of the enemy\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s attack. The salat thus offered is referred to as salat al-khawf; (see the Quran, 4:101). And there was no respite even to offer full prayers. In fact, two of the companions of the Imam came to stand in front of him to shield the Imam (against the arrows) so that he may offer two rak\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ahs of the salat al-khawf. The two of them fell from the injuries inflicted under the shower of the arrows. The enemy would not even give respite for offering prayers. Nevertheless, they have concocted a story that the Imam called for a wedding ceremony on this day, declaring, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'It is my wish to see one of my daughter wedded to Qasim.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' Obviously, one cannot take one\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s wishes to one\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s grave.
By God, see what kind of things they have attributed to a man like Husayn ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ali, things the like of which we sometimes hear from persons of a very mediocre character, who express a wish to see the wedding of their son or daughter in their life. And this is said to have occurred at a time when there was hardly any respite even for offering prayers. They say that the Hadrat said, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'I want to wed my daughter to my nephew here and now, even if it is just an appearance of a wedding.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' One of the things that was an inseparable part of our traditional ta\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ziyahs was the wedding of Qasim, the boy bridegroom. Such an episode is not mentioned in any reliable book of history. According to Hajji Nuri, Mulla Husayn Kashifi was the first man to write this story in a book named Rawdat al-shuhada\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' and it is totally fictitious. The case here is similar to the one about which the poet says:
Many are the appendages that they have clapped upon it,
You will hardly recognize it when you see it again.
Were the Sayyid al-Shuhada\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' to come and observe these things (and, of course, he does from the world of the spirit, but were he come into the world of appearance ) he will find that we have carved out for him companions that he never had. For instance, in the book Muhriq al-qulub - whose author was, incidentally, an eminent scholar and jurist, but who had no knowledge of these matters - that one of the companions to appear out of nowhere on the day of \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ashura\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' was Hashim Mirqal, who came bearing an eighteen cubits long spear in his hand. (After all someone had claimed that Sinan ibn Anas - who according to some reports severed the head of Imam Husayn - had a spear sixty cubits long. He was told that a spear could not be sixty cubits. He replied that God had sent it for him from the heaven!) Muhriq al-qulub writes that Hashim ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Utbah Mirqal appeared with a spear sixteen cubits long, whereas this Hashim ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Utbah was a companion of Amir al-Mu\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'minin \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ali and had been killed twenty years earlier.
We have attributed several companions to Husayn ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ali that he did not have, such as the Za\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'far the Jinn. Similarly, there are some names among the enemies that did not exist.

Muhriq al-qulub writes that Hashim ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Utbah Mirqal appeared with a spear sixteen cubits long, whereas this Hashim ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Utbah was a companion of Amir al-Mu\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'minin \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ali and had been killed twenty years earlier.
We have attributed several companions to Husayn ibn \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'Ali that he did not have, such as the Za\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'far the Jinn. Similarly, there are some names among the enemies that did not exist.

Supreme Leader\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Speech to Participants of International Conference on Islamic Awakening
11/12/2012
The following is the full text of the speech delivered on December 11, 2012 by Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution at the International Conference of Muslim University Professors and Islamic Awakening.
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
First of all, I welcome you honorable guests who have come here from different countries and I also welcome the dear and honorable professors from our own universities.
Since almost one and a half years ago until today, many meetings and conferences on Islamic Awakening have been held in Tehran, but I think that the International Conference of Muslim University Professors and Islamic Awakening has a special significance. This significance is because of the role of outstanding personalities and intellectuals in promoting new ideas in every society. They are the people who can lead a nation to salvation or to - God forbid - destruction. Unfortunately, the latter happened in certain countries, including our own country, over the last 70 or 80 years.
There is a narration from the Holy Prophet (s.w.a.), Muhammad ibn Abdullah, which says, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"The masses do not follow the right path unless outstanding personalities guide them towards it.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" When he was asked who these outstanding personalities are, he answered, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Religious scholars.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" Religious scholars were the first people whom he referred to as outstanding personalities and then he mentioned other groups of people. Therefore, university professors, luminaries and outstanding personalities can be the leaders of the people in every country, provided that they show purity and courage. They should not be afraid of the enemies. If they show fear, greed, negligence and laziness, they will fail to achieve the desired result. If they do not show fear, greed and negligence- if they show courage, then their efforts will achieve the desired result.
During the early days of the Revolution, about thirty one years or thirty two years ago, I and two other people went from Tehran to Qom to meet Imam Khomeini (r.a.). At that time, he was still in Qom. We - who were members of the Revolutionary Council at that time - went there to ask for his opinion about a very important issue. When we explained to him what the issue was, Imam (r.a.) looked at us and asked, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Are you afraid of America?\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" We said, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"No\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\". Then he told us to implement our decision. Then we implemented our decision and we succeeded. If you show fear, greed and negligence and if you let deviant orientations play a role [in your decision-making], you will face serious problems.
Today the entire world is faced with a great event. This great event is Islamic Awakening. This is a fact. Muslim nations and the Islamic Ummah have awakened. Today achieving domination over Muslim nations is not as easy as it used to be during the time after World War I and during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Today, if global arrogance wants to dominate Muslim peoples, they will face serious difficulties. Islamic Awakening has penetrated the Islamic Ummah which has resulted in a number of revolutions and the fall of corrupt and dependent regimes in certain countries. But this is only part of Islamic Awakening, not all of it. Islamic Awakening is a deep and widespread movement.
Of course, the enemies are afraid of the phrase \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Islamic Awakening.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" They are trying not to let the phrase \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Islamic Awakening\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" be used to refer to the current great movement in the region. Why are they doing this? It is because they tremble with fear when they see genuine Islam. They do not fear the kind of Islam which is based on money, corruption, aristocracy and the kind of Islam which is not supported by the majority of people. But they are terrified when they see the kind of Islam which is supported by the majority of people and which is based on action, reliance on God and divine promises. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"And surely Allah will help him who helps His cause\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" [The Holy Quran, 22: 40]. Whenever this kind of Islam emerges, whenever there are signs that this kind of Islam is approaching them, they tremble with fear. They are filled with fear \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"as if they were frightened donkeys, fleeing from a lion\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" [The Holy Quran, 74: 50-51]. Therefore, they do not want the phrase \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Islamic Awakening\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" to be used. But we believe that the current great movement is a true example of Islamic Awakening and it has penetrated the world of Islam. This movement will continue in the future and it will not easily deviate from its path.
We should identify the problems of these regional movements. This is the first point that I want to discuss with you. You should identify the problems of these movements and revolutions in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and similar countries. What are the dangers? What are the problems? Why do we say that these movements are Islamic in essence? Take a look at the people\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s slogans. Take a look at the role of Muslim believers in overthrowing corrupt regimes. If Muslim believers and Muslim groups who firmly believe in Islam and who are greatly respected by the people had not participated in these movements, these large public demonstrations would not have been held. The pressures that the people exerted, with their presence, on oppressive regimes like those of Hosni Mubarak and Ben Ali, completely destroyed their shaky foundations. They were Muslim peoples with Islamic slogans. The crucial role of Islamist parties in overthrowing these regimes is a clear proof that this movement is an Islamic movement. And whenever there was an election in these countries, the people voted for Islamist parties. They supported Islamic parties and they preferred them to other parties. Today, if a free election is held almost everywhere in the world of Islam - there may be a few exceptions - and if Islamist leaders and politicians participate in this election, the people will vote for Islamist politicians. This is the same everywhere in the world of Islam. Therefore, this movement is undoubtedly an Islamic movement.
Well, I said that we should identify the problems in these movements. Besides identifying the problems, we should delineate the goals of these revolutions, otherwise there will be confusion. We should delineate these goals. One of the most important goals of Islamic Awakening is getting rid of global arrogance. We should announce this openly because it is wrong to think that global arrogance - headed by America - may get along with Islamic movements. Wherever Islam and supporters of Islam prevail, America does its best to destroy them while putting on a friendly smile. Regional revolutions have no other choice than distancing themselves from global arrogance. We do not say that they should go to war with America, but we say that they should determine what the position of America and global arrogance is on the recent events in the region. They should do this correctly because if they do not gain a proper understanding of their position, they will be deceived.
Today, global arrogance is ruling over the world by using money, weapons and science. But it lacks new ideas and a road map. Today global arrogance has this big problem. It does not have any new ideas to help the people and intellectuals. But you do. You have Islam. When we have new ideas and a road map, we can delineate our goals and we can stand up against global arrogance. In this way, their weapons, their science and their money will not be effective as they were in the past. Of course, they will not be entirely ineffective, but we should think of ways to counter them - if there is time, I will explain more. Thus, in the first place, we should have new ideas, a road map and an ideology. We should know what we want to do.
We should delineate the goals of Islamic Awakening. One of the important goals of Islamic Awakening, which regional developments should pay attention to, is to preserve the pivotal role of Islam. Islam should be the pivot. Islamic principles and sharia should be the pivot of things. There is an all-out effort to claim that sharia is not compatible with progress, change and civilization. This is what the enemy says. No, it is perfectly compatible. Of course, there are many people in the world of Islam who do not have enough knowledge of Islamic jurisprudence and who have supported the enemy\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s claim with their dogmatic and old-fashioned ideas. These people are Muslims, but they are at the service of the enemy. There are such people in Islamic countries which are located near us. They call themselves Muslims, but they do not have any new ideas about and any new outlook on Islamic teachings. Islam is for all eras and centuries. Islam answers all the needs of human beings. We should only develop the necessary expertise in order to find Islam\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s answers to all the questions of human beings. Some people do not have this expertise and they only know how to excommunicate and drive certain people out of religion. And they call themselves Muslims. Sometimes we discover that these people cooperate with the enemy. We should make Islam and sharia the pivot of our activities. This is one of the goals of Islamic Awakening.
Another goal of Islamic Awakening is building a governing system. If a governing system is not built in countries which have carried out a revolution, they will face dangers. In North African countries, similar revolutions were carried out about 60 or 70 years ago. It was in mid-twentieth century that a revolution was carried out in Tunisia and certain people came to power. Similarly, a revolution and a coup d\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'état were carried out in Egypt and certain people came to power. The same thing happened in some other countries. But they failed to build a governing system. This resulted in not only the destruction of these revolutions but also in the complete political transformation of the individuals who had come to power as revolutionaries. There was a complete change in their political behavior and they turned their backs on their values. This happened in Tunisia, Egypt and Sudan during that time. It was around 1343, 1344 or 1345 that I and a couple of my friends were listening to Sawt al-Arab radio station in Mashhad - Sawt al-Arab used to be broadcast from Cairo in Egypt. It was broadcasting the interviews of Gamal Abdel Nasser, Muammar Gaddafi and Jaafar Nimeiry who had gathered in one place. We were being suppressed by the dictatorial regime of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi in Mashhad, but these fiery and impassioned speeches made us very enthusiastic and brought us great joy. Well, Abdel Nasser died and you saw what his successors did. You also saw what happened to Gaddafi and Nimeiry. Those revolutions underwent drastic changes because they had no plans and they did not build a governing system. There should be a governing system in countries which have carried out a revolution. They should build a solid foundation. This is one of the important issues regarding Islamic Awakening.
Another important issue is strengthening popular support. Islamic governments should not separate themselves from the people. The people have certain expectations and needs. The real power is in the hands of the people. Whenever the people hold demonstrations, whenever they become firmly united and whenever they unanimously support their leaders and government officials, then America and even powers that are greater than America cannot do anything to harm them. We should maintain the support of the people and you intellectuals, authors, poets and religious scholars can do this. The most significant people are religious scholars who have a heavy responsibility. They should clarify for people what they want and where they are going. They should enlighten them about the problems and the enemy. They should help the people remain vigilant. In this way, no harm will be inflicted on the Islamic Ummah.
Another issue is training the youth in scientific areas. Islamic countries should make progress in scientific and technological areas. I said that the west and America dominated the world by means of science - one of the means they used was science. They acquired wealth by using science. Of course, they acquired part of their wealth by using political machinations and immoral methods, but science also played an important role. We should make progress in science. There is a narration which says, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Knowledge is power. Anybody who has knowledge will be able to dominate those around him. Anybody who fails to gain knowledge will be ruled.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" You should make progress in science. Acquiring knowledge is like having strong arms. If you do not have strong arms, other strong people will twist your arms. You should encourage the youth in your countries to make progress in science. This is possible. We have done this in Iran. Before the Revolution, we were ranked one of the lowest nations in terms of science. No one paid any attention to us. Today those who carry out research in this regard say that Iran ranks 16th in the world in terms of science and the news of our achievement spread quickly in the world. This has been achieved in the shade of the Revolution, Islam and sharia. News of this achievement spread several months ago. Those organizations who said this predicted that Iran\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s scientific rank would be single-digit in a few years. They specified a year by which Iran will achieve this rank - in 10, 12 years. They said that Iran will be ranked fourth. This is because Iran has a fast rate of scientific growth. Of course, we are still far behind the world. Our scientific growth is several times faster than the global average, but we are still behind other countries. If we move forward at this speed, we will make great progress. The world of Islam should continue making progress. Islamic countries are talented. We have good young people. They are very talented. Muslim peoples used to be pioneers in science during a certain period. Why would we not expect that the world of Islam will be an authoritative source of reference in scientific areas? Why would we not expect that we can reach a point where all countries turn to Muslim countries in scientific areas? This is possible in the future. We should try very hard. Progress in science can be achieved in the shade of Islam and regional revolutions. The Islamic Ummah has proved that it can move forward at a greater speed.
Another important issue is unity - it is almost time for praying and we need to go. Dear brothers and sisters, our enemies are making the best of the discord that exists among us. They are trying to create discord among Muslim peoples under such pretexts as Shia and Sunni Islam, ethnicity and nationality. They are trying to create discord by magnifying Shia and Sunni differences. You see that they are creating discord in Islamic countries which have carried out a revolution and in other Islamic countries. Everybody should be vigilant. The west and America are the enemies of the world of Islam. We should address and respond to this issue from this perspective. They are provoking the emotions of the people. Their intelligence services are working very hard and they sow destruction wherever they can. On the issue of Palestine, they created as many obstacles as they could. Of course, they failed in their efforts. We are moving forward. The world of Islam is moving forward.
The recent event in Palestine is very important. An 8-day war broke out between the people of Gaza and the Zionist regime which claims to have the strongest army in the region. But when both sides decided to declare a ceasefire, it was the Palestinian side that set conditions. Is this believable? Would anybody have believed ten years ago that one day there would be a war between the Palestinians - not all Palestinians, a group of them in Gaza - and the Zionist regime and it would be the Palestinians who set conditions for a ceasefire? Well done to the Palestinians. Well done! Well done to Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the soldiers who fought in Palestine and Gaza for their outstanding courage. What they did is a perfect example of courage. I want to express my gratitude to the Palestinian soldiers for their sacrifices, their efforts and their patience. They saw that \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Verily, with every difficulty there is relief\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" [The Holy Quran, 94: 6]. If we show patience, God Almighty will resolve our problems. Because they resisted the enemy and showed great patience, God Almighty resolved their problems. This is a lesson for both the Palestinians and other people. You should not underestimate the significance of unity between Muslim peoples. It is a very important issue.
The point that our Bahraini brother raised about the silence of the world of Islam on the issue of Bahrain is true. The reason why some people are silent on this issue is that they have a denominational bias. According to these people, you can help people who have risen up against their corrupt government unless these people are Shia like the people of Bahrain. Some people have such an attitude towards this issue. They should change their attitude.
We should know the enemy. We should know what his plots and machinations are. We should know how he tries to harm us. Our position on the issue of Syria was based on such an outlook. We cannot even stand to see that blood runs from the nose of a single Muslim. Even this is very painful for us. What we say is that those who are dragging Syria into a civil war, destruction and fratricide are to blame for the current situation in Syria. The demands of all peoples should be met in conventional ways and without using such violence.
I hope that Allah the Exalted guides all of us. I hope that Allah the Exalted bestows His blessings on your efforts. I hope that Allah the Exalted bestows a bright future on this great wave of Islamic Awakening.
Greetings be upon you and Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s mercy and blessings

Supreme Leader\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Speech to Participants of International Conference on Islamic Awakening
11/12/2012
The following is the full text of the speech delivered on December 11, 2012 by Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution at the International Conference of Muslim University Professors and Islamic Awakening.
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
First of all, I welcome you honorable guests who have come here from different countries and I also welcome the dear and honorable professors from our own universities.

I hope that Allah the Exalted guides all of us. I hope that Allah the Exalted bestows His blessings on your efforts. I hope that Allah the Exalted bestows a bright future on this great wave of Islamic Awakening.
Greetings be upon you and Allah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s mercy and blessings

Muslims remember the martydom of the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (s) - Imam Al-Hussain (a.s), his family and his faithful companions every year. These protests are to expose the icon of oppression, Yazeed Ibne Muawiya (l.a) and all of his predecessors.
The followers of pure Muhammadan Islam express their opposition to all the oppressors, let it be Yazeedis of yesterday or the Yazeedis of today.
We beat our chests to show the grief and anger against oppression done against Imam Hussain (a.s) and his household. We show our love for the oppressed and our hate for the oppressors.
WE SUPPORT THE OPPRESSED!
WE OPPOSE THE OPPRESSORS!
