Hawzah News Agency- The Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom has issued a statement thanking the Iranian people for their historic, million-strong participation in the farewell and funeral of the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution, while stressing that the legitimate, legal and human right of the Ummah to avenge his blood must be pursued with the utmost seriousness.
According to the statement, the epic and history-making presence of the people transformed the funeral ceremony into an uprising demanding blood vengeance and retaliation against the enemies of Islam and Iran. "This divine fervor, passion and resolve shall never be extinguished, and the nation's religious, legal and human right to retaliation must be pursued and fulfilled with resolve."
Full text of the statement reads in part as follows:
In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
Millions took part in a historic and unforgettable epic to bid farewell to the martyred Leader, Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei, and once again astounded the world with the greatness and might of the unbreakable bond between Imam and Ummah.
The farewell to the martyred Imam of Iran marks the beginning of another chapter of the nation's uprising and resurgence for struggle and jihad. From this day forward, "Khamenei" will begin anew, and the world will come to understand more deeply his precious words: "Our mourning does not mean grief, depression and withdrawal. The nature of our mourning is that of the mourning for the Master of Martyrs (peace be upon him) — a mourning that is alive and life-giving. We mourn, but this mourning drives us to move, to progress, and to a greater eagerness for work and jihad."
The surging springs rising from the school and thought of the martyred Imam have flowed over rocky and difficult paths and have now become a roaring sea, whose waves will shatter and destroy the very body of the global arrogance.
Our martyred Imam is today more alive and dynamic than ever, and his holy spirit will aid and grant victory to the nation. The blood of the martyred Imam, like the blood of his master and estranged forefather, awakens the world and time. This pure blood is the very decree of jihad that guides us to the army of Imam al-Mahdi (PBUH).
The Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom extends its sincere gratitude to the Ummah that has been raised up, to all dignitaries, strugglers and servants who contributed to the magnificent and historic funeral, as well as to the noble people of Iraq who staged that stirring epic.
Furthermore, while renewing its pledge of allegiance to the Supreme Leadership of the Revolution, His Eminence Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, it invites all to follow and walk the blessed path of Wilayah and to safeguard this faith-driven, revolutionary and spiritual spirit.
The divinely-raised nation, with its glorious presence and resolute cries, turned the funeral ceremony into an uprising demanding blood vengeance and retaliation against the enemies of Islam and Iran. This divine fervor, passion and resolve shall never be extinguished, and the nation's religious, legal and human right to retaliation must be pursued and fulfilled with resolve.
