Hawzah News Agency- The programs were organized with the aim of promoting the culture of compassion, self-sacrifice, service to humanity, and elucidating the lofty values and ideals of the founder of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. The following is a detailed account of the activities carried out in various states:
1. Elucidating Imam Khomeini's Thought, Doctrine of Wilayat al-Faqih in Katsina State
Members of the Academic Forum in Katsina State took to the streets and, in particular, gathered at the grand central mosque of the region to hold enlightenment sessions aimed at introducing the personality of Imam Khomeini. Speakers at these programs stressed that Imam Khomeini was not merely the leader of a specific country, but a leader of the Islamic world and the oppressed—a figure who taught all how to rise up against tyranny and global arrogance and to strive for the establishment of an Islamic government founded on the principle of Wilayat al-Faqih.
2. Blood Donation Drives Save Lives in Gombe and Borno States
In a manifestation of the spirit of self-sacrifice and service to humanity—a fundamental principle of the school of Imam Khomeini—members of the Forum in Gombe and Borno states carried out health-focused initiatives:
