Radio-TV Message [Establishment of true justice in the days of the promised Mahdi (`aj)]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

I present my congratulations to the Muslims and the nation of Iran for the festivity of the 15 th Sha`ban that is the birthday of Imam Mahdi. Sha`ban is a great month. In this month, the great Savior of mankind is born. On the 3 rd of this month, the great holy war wager was born.

The issue of the disappearance of the Imam is a great matter that makes us to understand some of the issues. One of them is: Real justice should be spread in the world in its true sense. This is a great thing. There is none among mankind except Mahdi for this task- God has preserved him in reserve to carry out this mission when God deems fit. Among the Prophets, each of them had come to execute justice. Their errand was to spread justice into the world. But they did not succeed in their mission. Even the last Prophet did not succeed who had come to establish justice, to reform man and to coach him the manners. He was not successful in his mission in his own life time. That one who will succeed in carrying out the justice throughout the world is Mahdi whom God has preserved for this task and this mission. The justice he will execute, shall not be one now in the conception of every ordinary man. His justice will not be to the extent of the comfort of the people. His justice will embrace every aspect of human life, every dimension of man's entity. If man developed a deviation in his practice or in his spirit, or in his mind or reason- to set right this deviation or turn it back to the correct one is a justice in a sense. The repudiated deviation brings back the right one in its place to create justice in man and his life. The manners of a man are deviated or perverted. To normalize the perverted thing or set right the strayed thing means that justice is brought to its track. Or, a man is made just. Likewise, in beliefs, suppose, deviation has taken place. When this deviation is steered to correction it means that justice is done to the man concerned. Justice is done to the reason and so forth. Such a person to handle such a strange and unique talk was not created. God has given it only to Mahdi. Neither in the beginning nor in the end, could one do such a thing. It is reserved to Mahdi and Mahdi is reserved for it. All the Prophets were sent for this errand. But due to some setbacks they could not achieve the end. It is for Mahdi alone to successfully attain the objective.

The lengthy age bestowed upon him by God shows that Mahdi is the only person to handle this mission. Apart from him, there is no one else to fulfill the task. The fathers of Mahdi, the Prophets, did not succeed. If Mahdi was dead, then among human beings there was none for this mission. So, God has reserved him because of his competency for the task. Therefore, his birth stands a great feast for the Muslims and mankind. If the birthday of the Prophet is a great feast for the Muslims, the birthday of Mahdi can be said a great one. The Prophet could not spread the justice. But Mahdi will do that; the globe will be filled with justice at its various grades. When Mahdi appear he will set right every perversion. He will bring man from the abyss of depravation. It is said:" He fills the earth with justice after having been replete with tyranny." The justice that he practices is not one which is familiar to us which we are acquainted with. For instance, there should be a just government dealing with all equally. No. It is not so. His justice is above this sense. He fills the earth with justice. Now the earth is full of tyranny. It might be still worse later on. All the inhabitants over the globe are in perversion. The good and perfect people are having perversion and deviation though they themselves may not be aware of. The conduct, the behavior, the belief, the actions- all is deviated. Man in his performance deviation is evident. Imam Mahdi is assigned to set right all these perversions and deviations. He will mend the torturous and sinuous things to become right and straight. The earth will be replete with justice in its true sense. Therefore, from this point of view, this is a feast for all Muslims. Since Mahdi will guide all the human beings, it is a feast of humanity. He will wipe out truculence and tyranny from the face of earth. In its absolute since it can be regarded greater than the birth of the Prophet.

We, in days such as these, the days of God, should be mindful of the advent of Mahdi. I cannot name him as a leader. He is far above and greater. I cannot even say he is the first personality because there is no second to him.

We cannot represent or express his personality in any term or designation. This much suffices that he is Mahdi- the promised one whom God has reserved for mankind. We must gird ourselves to visit him when that could be available. We should be in his presence with our uplifted heads.

Many preparations are underway in our country. I hope the same be in other countries. We must prepare ourselves to meet Mahdi.

As for radio and TV, I have often repeatedly said that this organization should take a form of a training center. Now it is said that another aspect is created in it. Another organization is created in it. This should be a center to educate or train the people. We should be aware that we are living in an age wherein the nation of Iran has attained its aspiration that is a social justice. The nation has cut short the hands of malefic elements. This organization was in the past in the service of a tyrant government. If now there are people who were in those days in the service of tyranny, they should work to compensate their sins. The second organ which they say to be carried out must be that of justice, and that of training. This should be noted that our youths have seen a wrong training the last fifty years. Not only in the colleges but everywhere- radio, TV, magazines and etc; which were in the service of corrupt ones. As such, corruption is spread in every dimension. The youths who lived in deserts are also corrupt because they have read magazines and heard the radio and so forth. Now all should be mended. All should be compensated. The sins committed should be compensated. So, the newspapers and the TV should now repair the past. In reality, these organs should perform the coaching. The films shown on TV should be good ones. The films should be useful to the country. Their content should be teaching ones. Similarly, the articles that are read over radio or written in the newspaper should be against corruption.

One of the necessary things we need in today's Iran is calmness and peace. If we want the success of our campaign we have to preserve and protect the peace of the country. All the classes among the nation should be careful to protect the calm of the country. They should not go fighting another. Now the duty of radio and TV and the newspapers is to guide the people towards peace.

The newspapers should refrain from writing material that could provoke people or incite them towards perversion and deviation. Further, the papers and the media should make the people understand that we have enemy. Enemy is after chaos for us. The deviation should be set right. The provocations should be repelled. If the perverted people cannot be guided or returned to the straight path, they should be insolated. If you deal harshly with them, they will pose themselves as victims. Their appearance in a guise of victims is harmful to us. So, we should tell them the matters. We should guide them. We should be fair towards them. The announcers shall know all these things.

I hope that the perverted ones will return to the right way. Those people will come back into the embrace of the nation. I hope the people will rejoice this feast in its true sense. People should get ready and prepare themselves to see the Imam of the running time. May all be happy. May all become aware of the fact that radio/TV has an important role to play.

The media, the newspapers, should know that the differences should be diminished from the social surface. We should minimize the differences. The things that create or cause differences should be avoided. Regardless of this, we should know the enemy. Beyond this, we should endeavor to foil or counter the actions of the enemy. This will lead to peace. We must be careful not to provide any opportunity for the enemy to start propaganda against us.

I hope that the nation of Iran may live in health, happiness and peace- the blessings of the fifteenth of Sha`ban. May God bless us all under the blessed birth of Mahdi. May God bless us to see him. He is a person we cannot describe his real entity and identity. He is far beyond what we could name him as the first person of the world or the leader of the world. May God give success to us to do service to Imam Mahdi, to Islam and to our country.

May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon you.
