We explain the basics of Islam to society but by ‎broadcasting some inaccurate content the television networks, the work of the scholars and ‎sources of emulation is destroyed.”‎

His Eminence added that the seminary media organizations is doing its best to promote pure ‎Islam in the society and added, “I believe that the media, especially the seminary media ‎organizations such as Rasa News Agency, can reform the country. To achieve this goal, the ‎media organizations must address public weak points of individuals, interview people with ‎public weak points and attempt to correct their behaviour in a gentle, soft-spoken manner.”‎

He said that the seminary media organizations must protect the good image of the clergy in ‎society and strengthen the influence of the seminaries and the clergy in the society, “The ‎more we interact with the body of society, the greater our influence is among the people. ‎The seminary media organizations can portray the presence of the clergy in society and ‎provide the opportunity to strengthen the relationship between the clergy and the ‎seminarians among society.”‎

Ayatollah Faqihi described the late Imam Khomeyni’s key ‎to success as relying on pure Islam ‎and said, “If we also rely on Islamic points, we will certainly be influential. Therefore, we ‎must not fear anyone in the way of Islam but use all of our abilities to express the culture of ‎Islam.”‎
