Ayatollah Mousavi-Esfahani referring to the roaring sea of the presence of the Iranian people in support of the Islamic Revolution and said, “The wisdom of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the insight of the people once again saved the Islamic Revolution from the enemies’ conspiracies.” RNA – In an exclusive interview with Rasa News Agency, Ayatollah Sayyed Mostafa Mousavi-Esfahani, the representative of the people of Hamadan province in the Assembly of Experts, said that the presence of the people in support of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution (Ayatollah Khamenei) was due to the spirit of commitment to wilayah (guardianship) and said, “This support and the demonstrations in support of the Supreme Leader and the Islamic Revolution was nothing new. For forty years, the people have been defending the Islamic Revolution and the system.”
The manager of the Islamic Seminaries of Hamadan Province added, “This presence is a response just like previous responses which were demonstrated by the faithful and revolutionary people. This revolution is the fruit of thousands of martyrs and self-sacrificers and the alleys and streets of cities and villages throughout the country are adorned with the sacred names of these martyrs.”
Ayatollah Mousavi-Esfahani said that there have been ups and downs during the course of the Islamic Revolution and noted, “The revolutionary sea has been a raging, clean and leading sea and the rioters and the obstinate media are like foam on water. The principle of the raging sea is the nation that remains. With this wave of propaganda against the Supreme Leader, the people’s support for the system is commendable and it has been proven that the eternal support has been and will always been the decisions of the Supreme Leader.”
His Eminence criticized the government’s performance in implementing the gasoline quota plan and said, “The increased price of gasoline must not affect the prices of other goods and put more pressure on people. There must be serious surveillance over the market and the offenders must be dealt with.”
He stated that the enemies had targeted the Islamic Seminaries in the recent sedition and stated, “The most destructive and pressure of the riots was on the Islamic Seminaries and the obstinate media insisted that the clerics were the cause of this upheaval. In the last year and a half, however, most of the economic pressures has been on the seminarians and clergymen who teach and research and receive no income from any organization except for a small monthly stipend.”
Ayatollah Mousavi-Esfahani added, “Indeed, in this situation of economic pressure, the seminarians and clergymen and their families, like many other sections of society, are engaging in jihad and fighting and despite all these problems, they have fulfilled their revolutionary duties very well. The officials must make additional efforts to improve their situation.”
