Islamic Awakening

Leaders Speech to Governor Generals

Ayatollah Khamenei :our country is presently completely prepared for constructive measures. Fortunately the general atmosphere in our country is marked by security and public readiness and the hearts of the Iranian people are full of hopes and aspirations. Today there are cordial ties between general public and the government and the people expect their government officials to work hard for the progress and development of their country .The people are quite ready to cooperate with the government and there is suitable ground for rendering services to the public If we break up the government in terms of responsibilities we will see that governor generals are major components of the government Thus you should do your utmost to achieve public satisfaction and never get tired of working for the people. Dear brothers Ever since the Islamic Revolution achieved victory and the present system was established in our country we have been facing some anticipated challenges and will continue to face such challenges for long years to come If someone expects that so long as the Islamic Republic adheres to its defined criteria and principles arrogant and hegemonic powers that are opposed to our principles leave the Islamic Republic alone pose no challenges to it or even assist it in accomplishing its ideals his or her expectation is far from judicious Such things should never be expected from hegemonic powers .The Islamic Republic of Iran has been established based on the principles of promoting religious and spiritual values pursuing global justice holding all human beings in high regard and standing against the bullying and domination of hegemonic powers These are the criteria and principles of the Islamic Republic. It is clear that when you stand against bullying and domination the world�s arrogant powers will not leave you alone but they will pose a challenge to you .This challenge has existed ever since the Islamic Revolution�s victory and will continue to exist until the world�s bullies and hegemonic powers give up in despair Therefore you should always consider yourself to be in the arena of confrontation with hegemonic powers In their confrontation with the Islamic Republic hegemonic powers specially the United States are trying to foment division and insecurity and undermine national unity in our country. They are also trying to halt our country's scientific progress .The reason is that scientific progress is the secret of economic political and military power and high morale of any nation. The scientific campaign which was launched in our country many years ago has so far yielded remarkable results but they intend to bring our scientific campaign to a halt. The world�s arrogant powers are also seeking to block our governments campaign to serve the public make our officials preoccupied with futile political and factional disputes divest the Iranian people of their hopes and vitality and weaken their trust in the slogans and ideals of the Islamic system. You governor generals are government officials with the greatest executive authority in provinces Therefore while drawing up plans and determining priorities among various national and provincial issues you should pay due attention to these realities .You should not underestimate the significance of your responsibilities and not get tired of working for the people .Time is going by very fast . You should try to make the most of what remains of your term of office It is also worthy of mention that you should take the issue of security very seriously Also you should make every effort to serve the people and fulfill public satisfaction. there should be a balance between fulfilling the peoples immediate needs and performing longterm plans and projects In other words the peoples current problems and immediate requirements should not be ignored on the pretext of engagement in longterm plans and infrastructural projects and vice versa since both need adequate attention and necessary measures You should try to deal with the people in a fair and humble manner and establish cordial ties with the public You should not be overcome by the status and prestige associated with your office since this will keep you from mingling with the ordinary people Some officials wrongly believe that if they keep the people at a distance this will add to their prestige However the opposite is the case and it is close and cordial ties with the public that will raise the status of government officials When you are dedicated to your duties when you are not after your personal interests when you sacrifice your own comfort for public welfare and when you work sincerely for the sake of Allah the Almighty will cause you to be respected and held in high regard by the general public I have seen certain officials who kept the public at a distance assuming that this would raise their prestige But the result was that they lost the status that they had in the eyes of the people Thus try to be on cordial terms with the public and serve the people in a sincere manner Another important point is that you should invite the services of dedicated and competent workforce across the country Also make sure to act within the framework of the country's 20Year Perspective Document which highlights the basic objectives of the Islamic system and the fiveyear development plan These objectives should be observed in your plans and projects Above all there is a great need for selfobservation and selfdiscipline in performing duties and responsibilities If you consolidate your bonds with Almighty Allah deepen your sense of devotion and work for the sake of Allah divine favor and assistance will be bestowed on you and you will be able to carry out your responsibilities more efficiently I hope the next time that we have an opportunity to meet you will report on the great tasks that you have performed and your remarkable achievements in your provinces The ground is quite prepared for serving the public and you are men of service Concentrate on your duty to serve the people and not be daunted by the enemies Have no fear of the enemies who appear to have formed a united front against Islam and the Muslim Ummah and the flag of Islam that has been raised in our country but who are in fact at variance with one another If we continue treading the right path and persevere in attaining our objectives they will not be able to achieve their goals. Their stratagems as you can see have all proved to be futile Today the United States considers its interests in Iraq to be contingent on the fomenting of conflict and insecurity in that country and on the portraying of the Iraqi popular government as incompetent Consequently US agents are trying to give rise to an ethnic and religious war in Iraq and the tragic incident that took place in Samarra a few days ago was an instance of the attempts that are being made by the United States In the past also they tried to further their political objectives by provoking Muslims and thus they committed the outrageous affront to the Holy Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him and his infallible household) by publishing the offensive cartoons That provocative act and the tragic incident in Samarra were identical in nature as both were aimed at provoking Muslims by desecrating their religious sanctities and both were meant to achieve certain objectives But what was the result. 2006/02/27

Ron Webb ,I didn�t say terrorists are Sunni .i never accept  this wrong sentence . I say terrorists aren�t Muslim (they are not Shia and they are not Sunni ,too).Terrorists cant be Muslim because their beliefs and behavior  are against Islam .this means :they don�t believe Allah and don�t obey his orders .terrorists try to divert mind of some people until they accept wants of them and follow them .they show every things inversely .u can study holy  Quran and search its important and valuable words about unity ,disunity, end of bad humans and� .

 For example (Sura  AlBaqara: 83-85,104,113,176,253/ Sura Al Anfal :46-45/ Sura Aal Imran :7,19,64,105,99-103,152/ Sura  Ash-Shura/ Sura Al-Ahzab/ Sura Al-Furqan :63,72/ Sura  AlAn'am:108,153/ Sura AlMa'ida :2/ Sura Al-Bayinah :4/�)

I don�t accept ur sentence about relatives among Muslim families .Muslims  have the best relations in their families .for this ,their children mostly are believer ,happy ,hopeful and success their life .they learnt from their parents . they felt mean of real love in their childhood and will teach it to their children ,too. Dear friend ,stability of lovely life among Muslims is more than other religions .majority of men and women Muslims  are loyal to their mates . I am certain that you cant find such strong relationship in other religions. For that Muslims are health (physical and mental). About punishment ,Allah and our religion didn�t let to us to beat persons (men and women are human and have equal humanity rights). But if one person do wrong work ,every one knows that she or he must be punished .because humans are responsible and must obey from legal laws(special  in familial relationship) . unfortunately  ,most people misunderstood this law .Islam never said that men can beat their wives .Islam didn�t let this .Islam is right religion and defend from all facts .i don�t know why some people want to show it badly .the best proof for u is behavior of our prophets and Imams with their wives .they are sample for all .we try to learn  kindness ,forgiveness and friendship from our dear guiders .

I know most countries have bad mind (dark and negative)about Iran and know its reasons .i cant change ur mind because it is vain work. If u be for a short time in my country only for travel ,u will feel the realities urself ,clearly .my country has wonderful nation .they are very kind and lovely .
