I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Uprising and resistance, the characteristics of leadership
Initially, the prophets were one in their propagation. Moses (`a) was one person; the honorable Prophet (s) when he was first appointed; was appointed alone- just himself." Arise and call upon the people." «1» The call initially started from the Prophet himself. The day that he announced his prophetic mission, a woman and a child( Hadrat Khadijah (`a) and Commander of the Faithful Hadrat `Ali (`a))accepted his faith; but resistance, which is the essential requirement of leadership of the honorable prophets, was present in a perfected manner in the honorable prophet:" Arise and persevere." «2»
These two qualities were influential in the advancement of the lofty ideals of the Prophet of Islam; uprising and resistance. This resistance resulted in that, although he had nothing and all the forces of the powerful were opposed to him- such that in Mecca, he was not able to call upon the people openly- he did not despair of not being able to call upon the people openly. He was not one to despair. The invitation was covert. He attracted the people towards himself one by one until himself journeyed to Medina, and was given the mission to call on the people to arise." Say, I advise you one thing and that is rise in the way of God." «3» Here, it is a call to uprising. The call to the gathering is to arise together; and more importantly is to rise in the way of God. The secret of the victory of the army of Islam at the advent of Islam- although you could say that they almost had no weapons of war with them- was the uprising in the way of God. Movement in the way of God and faith in God enabled the messenger to triumph. Not despairing and preserving in the way of God brought victory to the Messenger. The companions of the honorable prophet at the advent of Islam had the power of faith, and with the power of faith, they managed to march forward such that with a very small population and without having weapons of war, they defeated two of the great empires of the world in that period, Rome and Iran. They revolted and revolted in the way of God, and persevered.
The cry of Revolution from the Faydiyyah Madrasah
You the people of Iran, you the great nation of Iran have realized the very objectives of the advent of Islam. Initially, the cry arose from the Faydiyyah Madrasah; and they demolished the Faydiyyah Madrasah; they martyred some of our youth; but resistance caused us not be overcome, not to be defeated spiritually. This resistance was the cause of the coming together of the sections and their acceptance of the Islamic call; of their listening and obeying the Islamic calls at the cost of their lives; and of the bonding of these drops and the creation of a great flood. It was a general uprising for the sake of Islam; it was an uprising for the way of God; it was an uprising for a republic of Islam. This uprising spread its roots in all the sections of our nation and bonded together all the strata; and faith manifested itself in everybody; it was a spiritual transformation, a mental transformation backed with a strong will. From small children to elderly men; from small girls to elderly ladies; all strata of people rose up together and persevered, collectively and individually, for the cause of God. As long as this uprising is for the cause of God; so long as this unity is present, you are victorious. So long as these gatherings are held and the people from all corners of the country gather here and raise their voice together- from the tribes to the provincial towns- you are victorious.
The nation, unafraid of the desperate moves
They have come from Yazd- may God bless them; tribesmen have come; they have come from Mamasani; may God bless them. University students and non-university people should unite, school goers and businessmen should come together, tribal people and town-dwellers should gather together- all of us together shall carry this movement forward. With this strong will that our nation has, and with the will that demolished the great barrier of the ominous regime, these feeble mosquitoes cannot make an impression. Our nation is not afraid of assassination. Our nation regards martyrdom as a great victory.
Brothers! Safeguard this movement. Be direct;" We advise you on one thing and that is to rise in the way of God." «4» One admonition; just one admonition the Blessed and Almighty God has given to you through the honorable prophet; which is that you should arise and arise in the way of God. If the uprising is for the sake of God, there is no fear of martyrdom. There is no such thing as a defeat in an uprising that is for the way of God. Muslims of the time of the advent of Islam said" if we kill, we will go to heaven, and if we are killed, we will go to heaven" You too are like this.
May God favor all of you, all the people of Iran, and all the Muslim nations with happiness and health. May God protect your gathering for Islam. All of us together must march forward.
May God's peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you.
