RNA – In his Friday prayer sermon delivered to a large and fervent crowd of believers in Qom, Ayatollah Hoseyni-Bushehri referred to the beginning of the Ten-Day Dawn, which celebrates the anniversary of Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, saying that during the past 37 years, Iran has stood firm against all the enemies’ conspiracies and now the leaders of the world look at Iran with respect.
The member of the Assembly of Experts said that Iran achieved four important achievements as the result of Islamic Revolution: independence, freedom, self-esteem and progress.
He said that before the Islamic Revolution, Iranian officials had no will of their own and foreign embassies made all decisions for this country but due to the efforts of Imam Ruhollah Khomeini, the Islamic Revolution was launched as a response to the cry of the people and the spirit of independence was awakened in the country. “Today, Iran is an independent nation and speaks to the world from a position of strength,” he said.
Ayatollah Hoseyni-Bushehri referred to the implementation of the JCPOA, saying with the lifting of the harsh sanctions which were imposed on Iran, we are not thankful to the Americans because Iran paid a heavy price by signing the JCPOA.
“If the enemies try to cheat us, the Iranian nation, as it has shown, will stand against their bullying,” he said.
Qom’s Friday prayer leader stressed that despite the lifting of sanctions, Iran must still focus on the “Resistance Economy,” saying that officials must note that without the Resistance Economy, progress and development cannot be achieved despite the lifting of the sanctions.
The member of the Assembly of Experts referred to the bravery of Iran’s IRGC forces in regard to the recent arrest of ten American Marines in the Persian Gulf, saying that the Americans have become a monster for the world but were intimated by Islam and the bravery of our people.
