Hawzah News Agency- According to field sources and discussions with Iraqi officials, the original decision to hold the funeral ceremony of the martyred leader in Iraq was an initiative that came from the people, tribal chiefs, and Iraqi officials themselves. This popular demand arose from within the tribes and cities of Iraq, before any official proposal from Iran, and then senior Iraqi officials welcomed it with open arms.
This move sends a clear message to the world, and especially to regional equations—a message that says the Axis of Resistance transcends geographical borders, built on shared beliefs and the will of nations. Today, Iraq proved that in the new equations of the Middle East, it plays a role beyond mere neighborliness, and alongside Iran, it is one of the main pillars of the Resistance front.
An official reception ceremony was planned at Najaf Airport for the arrival of the martyred leader's body, with Iraqi officials and dignitaries in attendance. But as soon as the body was brought from the plane to the airport tarmac, all formalities and official platforms were forgotten.
Everything changed in an instant—special guests, officials, clerics, tribal chiefs, and everyone present abandoned their ceremonial positions and rushed toward the holy body with indescribable passion and fervor.
Amidst this massive crowd and the continuous waves of mourners, the holy body shone like a green gem in the midst of a sea of people.
The airport atmosphere echoed with the unified and resounding chant "Kulla Kulla Amreeka" (No, No America). This chant was not just an emotional cry, but a strategic declaration by the Iraqi people against American hegemony in the region—people who remember well how America, through its policies and regional allies, cast a shadow over their destiny for years.
The red flags of vengeance in the hands of Iraqis carried a clear message to all enemies of the Axis of Resistance. No other chant was heard at the airport—only one voice, unified and harmonious: "Kulla Kulla Amreeka," shaking the airport walls and telling the world that these people have found their path.
Images broadcast from the airport showed crowds that waited until late at night under the Najaf sky, never relenting until they could see the holy body with their own eyes and carry it on their hands.
From a regional perspective, this massive turnout carries the message of a new reality in West Asia—that the Axis of Resistance is not a fleeting political alliance, but a deep spiritual and emotional bond between nations. The enemies who spent years trying to sow discord between Iran and Iraq now see with their own eyes how the people of these two countries honor the leader of the Islamic Ummah.
The funeral prayer was held for the bodies of the martyred leader and his noble family in the courtyard of the Alawi Shrine. An immense crowd filled every corner of the shrine. The prayer was led by Ayatollah Sayyid Muhammad Taqi al-Hakim, and the shrine's atmosphere echoed with chants of "Labbaik Ya Hussain" and "Labbaik Ya Khamenei."
The people prayed over the holy body with tearful eyes, then bid him farewell. For many mourners, this moment was unforgettable and will remain in their memories forever.
This presence at the Alawi Shrine, from a global perspective, demonstrates the depth of the Islamic Revolution's discourse among different Islamic sects. The enemies who have always tried to exploit sectarian differences to create division between Shia and Sunni now see that love for a mujahid leader has shattered all these artificial boundaries.
The choice of Karbala as the final stop for farewell in Iraq is not without strategic significance. Karbala is a symbol of resistance and steadfastness against oppression, and bidding farewell to the martyred leader in this land draws an unbreakable bond between the movement of Imam Hussain (peace be upon him) and the Islamic Revolution. This is a message to all free people of the world that the path of resistance continues.
This transfer of the body from Najaf to Karbala and then to Mashhad is a symbolic journey that connects three pivotal landmarks of Islamic civilization—Najaf (knowledge and wisdom), Karbala (sacrifice and resistance), and Mashhad (guardianship and dignity). This connection is a roadmap for a nation seeking honor and freedom.
The End of American Hegemony in the Region: The chants of "Kulla Kulla Amreeka" at Najaf Airport were not ordinary slogans, but a declaration of the end of the era of American influence in West Asia. The Iraqis, who spent years under the American occupation, are now drawing a future without American domination through this chant.
The Soft Power of the Islamic Revolution: The funeral of a leader among the Iraqi people demonstrates the unparalleled influence of the Islamic Revolution's discourse among the nations of the region. The path of resistance has today become the dominant discourse in the region.
The Failure of the Divisive Project: Years ago, the martyred leader, out of religious sensitivities, had asked pilgrims not to carry his pictures. But today, the streets of Najaf, Karbala, and the road between them are covered with pictures of our martyred leader. This means the enemies have failed in their divisive project, and the Muslim nations have found their way to unity on their own.
A people who stood for hours under the scorching sun and carried their leader like a green gem on their hands have shown the world that the Resistance Front is a heartfelt, ideological front that recognizes neither geographical borders nor colonial designs.
"He did not go to a shelter..." This is the phrase that echoed today in Najaf and Karbala on the lips of all Iraqis. People who say: "The martyred leader is not our guest—he is the master of the house."
And this means that when a great man penetrates the hearts of nations, he breaks down the artificial borders and walls built by enemies, and remains alive in history forever. This is a clear message to those in the White House and their agents, that the equations of the region are no longer shaped by their will.
