[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

However, it's self-evident that the in-person negotiations in the future will not mean acceptance of the enemy's position. We hope the blessed prayers of our Master (may God hasten his noble reappearance) will bring all kinds of victories & triumphs to honorable Iranian nation.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

To the passionate and loyal nation of Iran

As you have been informed, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the presidents of Iran and the United States of America.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

He also explicitly stated that if the American side seeks to make excessive demands, they will not submit to them. From this moment on, we—that is, you, the proud nation, and this humble servant—will await the realization of the aforementioned conditions.

The farewell, funeral, and burial ceremonies for the pure bodies of Martyr Khamenei and the members of his family — martyrs Dr. Misbah al‑Huda Baqeri Kani, Sayyida Bushra Hosseini Khamenei, Zahra Haddad Adel, and Zahra Mohammadi Golpayegani — will be held as follows:

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

I pray to Almighty God to grant the departed a high station in paradise and the company of those closest to Him.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

I offer my condolences for this painful loss to the seminary of Najaf, to all the followers and admirers of this late Religious Authority, to particularly the resilient, steadfast people of Afghanistan, and to his honorable family.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

His many years of being in Najaf seminary & benefiting from the great scholars there, such as late Ayatollah Khoei, training students, writing books, supervising scholarly life in that seminary, are only a part of this jurist's legacy. These services will never be forgotten.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

The news of the passing of the prominent Religious Authority, Ayatollah Hajj Sheikh Ishaq Fayyaz (may his soul be sanctified), has caused great sorrow and grief, and it has left the seminaries — especially the holy seminary of Najaf — in mourning.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution's message of condolence on the passing of the prominent Religious Authority, Ayatollah Hajj Sheikh Ishaq Fayyaz (may his soul be sanctified)

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

I emphatically declare that the consistent policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, following on the path of Imam Khomeini and the martyred Leader, is to continue supporting the Resistance against the Zionist-US enemy.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

Almighty God has said, “Say, ‘I give you only one advice: rise up for Allah’s sake, in twos or individually.’” This verse is the opening of the first message in which that unparalleled figure, the righteous servant, Imam Khomeini, invited Iranian nation to rise up for God.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

The martyred Leader would explain Imam’s school of thought: Among those teachings were that Iranian nation is a religious, intelligent, courageous nation; they're the country’s true owners and source of its power and can concretize the slogan “we can” in various fields.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

What immense force could’ve awakened a slumbering nation, enchanted by colonialism and in a situation where total dependency on West prevailed? Yes, it was the Great Khomeini and the martyred Khamenei who discovered and revived this talent & readiness within the Iranian nation.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

Rising up for God [Qiyam Lillah] is the foundation of Imam Khomeini’s (ra) school of thought. One of the most important fruits and blessings of his existence was his guiding, educating, and profoundly influencing society based on this very principle.

[Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei @MKhamenei_ir]

It is necessary that everyone, from young children to the elderly, follow the example of Amir al-Mumineen, Imam Ali (pbuh), in the same manner that Imam Khomeini and the martyred Leader took pride in their lives being modeled after that magnanimous figure.
