[In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful]
The housing problems should be solved as soon as possible for the homeless and impoverished people of Iran. Each family should be provided with a home it needs. Water and electricity should be free for the poor and the have-nots.
I believe that the true revolutionaries, that is, those great and crushing forces of this Revolution, were of the underprivileged class. Those who have given their lives and have brought victory to this Revolution with the power of true faith and unwavering belief were the barefooted people, who have never tasted an aristocratic and privileged life.
I have ordered that the Shah's property, whether in Iran or abroad, should be divided after sequestration only among the indigent and have-nots and the money be expended on housing construction and other amenities for the welfare of these people.
