In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Eminence, the committed Mujahid Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Hashimi:
When there was an assassination attempt on late Mudarris on the order of Rida Khan, Mudarris sent a message from the hospital. And said:" Tell Rida Khan that I am still alive." Mudarris is still living. Men of historical importance never die. All the malicious individuals should know that Hashimi is alive because the movement is alive.
The Americans and other super powers should learn that our nation is alive. The mass rallies staged in the past few days go a long way to prove that the Revolution is alive. These people can never kill our Revolution through their stupid approaches. They can never eliminate humane and Islamic personalities of Mutahhari and Hashimi through their terrorist acts. There is no denying the fact that these assassination attempts are premeditatedly calculated and well organized, while the telltale tracks of international and criminal superpowers in such crimes are easily discernable.
Our people are expected to stand up to all these plots and unravel the conspiracies. The people are to carefully identify the criminals and report them to the Revolution Courts. The Revolutionary Guards and their commanders are to protect the valuable revolutionary personalities and stay vigilant by looking into suspicious behaviors; although the said personalities may not be happy with having bodyguards. The great Islamic nation is determined to continue its Islamic movement, and it would never let the traitors to interfere in the affairs of the country. We do invite other great Islamic nations to cooperate with the Iranian Islamic movement.
The hands of the criminals that control the Islamic countries and the deprived must be cut off, so that the divine promise can come true through the efforts of the Islamic people. I salute and congratulate Mr. Hashimi, the brave man of Islam, who came within an inch of martyrdom. I pray for his health and his continued services to the people. May peace of God be upon him and the righteous bondsmen of Allah.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
