جلد ۱۵ صحیفه امام خمینی (ره)، از صفحه ۶۰ تا صفحه ۶۱
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Endless praise to the bounties blessings of Almighty God Who has granted the noble and committed Iranian nation success that despite mounting problems their presence on the scene and support of Islamic Republic, which is the product of their own sacrifices grow ever more stronger. Despite the propaganda campaign launched by the internal and external enemies, they elected Mr. Muhammad-`Ali Raja'i (may Almighty God approve of him) as president of the Islamic Republic of Iran by displaying greater turnout than the previous elections, and placed this great responsibility and heavy burden upon him. Since the legitimacy of his presidency should be confirmed by wali-ye faqih «1», I hereby confirm the noble nation's vote and declare him President of the Islamic Republic of Iran. This appointment and confirmation will remain in force as long as he moves in line with the dear Islam, follows its sacred rules, obeys Iran's Constitution, works diligently to secure the interests of the country and the noble nation within his legal jurisdiction, and does not violate divine orders and the Constitution. If God-forbid, he acts on the contrary, I will strip him of this legitimacy. «2» He should also take note of the fact that the brave Iranian people have cast their votes accordingly as it is clearly seen in their conduct. I hope he would wholeheartedly and to the best of his capabilities endeavor to safeguard the divine trust and to responsibility consigned to him by the nation. I further hope that he will remain faithful to his promise before the Omnipresent God and the nation that is always present on the scenes and to take care of the situation and the developments. He should seriously act in accordance with God's command where He has invited the believers to be kind and merciful in dealing with themselves, and hard against the opponents of Islam. «3» In practicing the truth, he should not fear the blame of people displaying ill will, side with the right in his supervision over the three branches of power and feel a sense of pride in serving the servants of God, particularly the oppressed masses of people since fidelity to Islam and the Islamic Republic has been demonstrated. It is hoped that at this sensitive juncture when the internal and external enemies have consolidated their forces to undermine the Islamic Republic, people from all walks of life, including the `ulama', the intellectuals, the researchers, the armed forces, the farmers, the office workers, the factory workers, the managers, the merchants, the businessmen, the moving tribes and the border dwellers be in one voice with the esteemed president, the cabinet, the parliament and other Islamic bodies to curtail the hands of criminals and traitors, struggle for solidification of the Islamic Republic, make sacrifices to build an independent and free Iran, and serve our country and its oppressed people with unity of expression.
The coincidence of the presidential elections with the holy month of fasting and the auspicious feats of Fitr bodes well for the President's success in serving the dear nation and country.
I pray to Almighty God for the success of all in constructing the dear country.
