🔸 “The future of this country is being built on unlawful arrests and slanders. The regime carries out arrests every day under various pretexts in order to maintain its rule. The situation has become so critical that even women who stand at the boundaries of their faith are now targeted by the authorities.

🔸 This must be a cause of rightful concern for every person who displays honor, will and belief, especially the devout. The step taken today against women who have been slandered and arrested will without doubt tomorrow extend as a savage and reactionary hand reaching into every home, towards every woman in hijab.

🔸 From here, behind the prison walls, I demand from the authorities the release of these believing women, and at the same time I call on every believer not to remain silent on this matter, to raise their rightful protest in order to stop the treacherous hands directed against the followers of Sayyeda Zaynab (SA).”

First, the path continues.. because the path does not stop at anyone.

I will say something that may be bold, but bear with me. Sayyed Khamenei is not the leader.. Sayyed Khamenei is an agent on behalf of the Leader, and the Leader is Imam al-Zaman (al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance).

We believe that the jurists are representatives, and the representatives act based on the duties that come to them, sometimes directly from the Lord and sometimes indirectly. In our time it is indirect, they derive them from events and reality. The jurists are representatives.. meaning Sayyed Khamenei is a representative on behalf of the true Leader, while the field commander and overseer of all the paths, directions, and battles is Imam al-Zaman, and we must believe in that. If we truly believe that Sayyed Khamenei is a legitimate jurist, then we must believe in that. He is a leader by agency and acts by agency.

There is a phrase always repeated in the news: "Iran’s arms [proxies/agents]"... no, Iran is one of the arms [i.e, proxy/agent] of the Master of the Age [Imam Mahdi atj].

So the path continues, and when the land is watered with blood the society matures more and becomes more cohesive, and this is the point we are witnessing now.

If we came out of this war that is waged on the dear Islamic Republic with only two fruits, we would still be victorious. The first fruit is cleansing the inside from spies who work for the kuffar [disbelievers], and this is a great victory. The second fruit is the realization that we are strong, but we need to become stronger and grow even more.
