Reformatory activities are possible without mayhem

My condition does not allow me a long discourse. For this reason I will speak only a few words. We, Iranians, have a duty and the same also binds all the Muslims and those who have sympathy with Islam and the Muslim countries that we should not give room to chaos under various pretexts or because of our own personal inconveniences. The present days are such that if Iran happens to be short of calm no reformatory work could be done. Reformation needs an environment wherein work could be possible. Suppose the environment of a college if happens to be chaotic one then the students would not be able to carry out their work. In factories too if mayhem happens to exist there, no work would progress. Those who do not want Islamic democracy to come into being in this country, and the country to be a free and independent one, create chaos- in every place in a different way. They commit things anti-Islamic but in the name of Islam. Under the pretext of service and the oppressed ones they do things quite in contrast, which results in turmoil or mayhem. This further causes strikes which prevail the good doers to refrain from doing so.
Such things should be avoided. No strikes should take place every day. Demonstrations should not occur. Things such and similar should be waived off and then the country will enjoy calm and peace. The government too would be able to perform a service. In a country struck by every havoc and devastation, neither the government nor the people could render any service in spite of their intention to do so.

Falling down on the job, lack of hard work is the root of economical affiliation

My recommendation to all of you is to refrain from turmoil, chaos, and division. Also strikes and street gatherings should be avoided. On the other hand, whoever at whatever a job, he should perform it to his best ability.
Inefficient work and lack of hard work is the root of all economical attachments and affiliations. If we do work for ourselves, then we are obliged to be affiliated to some in other countries. If we do not cultivate ourselves we must be dependent in this regard. If we do not become self-sufficient in industry then there too we have to be dependent. Therefore, each and every one engaged and occupied in his work, whatever it may be, let him do his job fair and well. Doing less work or passing time in idleness or inciting one to idleness, these are like a fatal poison to our country. It will drag the country towards devastation. Therefore, what I demand from all clerks, workers, farmers and every one wherever and in whatever work he is busy at, to be fair to perform that job well and good. Let him invest all his working power in this task. The energy God has blessed him with, let not be blocked or go without use. By the grace of God and the grace of the unity of the people and their courage, this country may become Islamic, and all the inhabitants may live in ease and comfort.
I am hopeful that the same will happen. I also hope that we all will preserve our unity and the divine aspect of the Revolution. The aspect, which turned you all towards the direction of God. This is a great backing for the nation. You should protect it. You should protect your unity. As a result these trifle tumults that are existing will be vanished by the grace of this very unity and its Islamic feature. Our country will become an Islamic one, free and independent by the will of God.
May God always assist you.
