RNA – In an exclusive interview with Rasa News Agency, Ayatollah Sayyed Rahim Tavakkol, ‎the representative of the people of Mazandaran province in the Assembly of Experts, ‎referred to the characteristics of the revolutionary Islamic Seminaries and emphasized upon ‎the necessity for seminarians to pay attention to the thought of Imam Khomeyni and ‎Ayatollah Khamenei in the field of revolutionary activity and said, “The late Imam Khomeyni ‎created a kind of insight and awareness among all groups of people of society by laying the ‎foundations of the Islamic Revolution.”‎

The teacher in the Islamic Seminary of Qom said that “insight” must be the criterion for all ‎our actions and said, “The meaning of the ‘revolutionary seminary’ is to pay attention to the ‎lines and policies of Imam Khomeyni and find the axis and direction from his speech and ‎actions and move in the same direction.”‎
‎ ‎
He noted that the behaviour of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution [Ayatollah ‎Khamenei] is entirely based on the characteristics of the revolutionary seminary and said, ‎‎“Just like Imam Khomeyni, he always tries to increase insight in society because if there is ‎no insight, we will lose the true path.”‎

Ayatollah Tavakkol insisted on that seminary which is called a revolutionary seminary is one ‎which is insightful and stated, “A revolutionary seminary is one which correctly recognizes ‎right and wrong, distinguishes from each other them well, helps the truth and fights ‎wrongdoing.”‎
‎ ‎
His Eminence stated that the Islamic Seminaries of Qom are revolutionary but their level of ‎revolutionism isn’t ideal and noted, “For this reason, we must try to increase the level of ‎revolutionism in the Islamic Seminaries of Qom and the Islamic Seminaries of Qom ‎themselves must strive to increase their level of revolutionism. If the Islamic Seminaries are ‎on the path of discernment and awareness, everything it does will be revolutionary.”‎
‎ ‎
He stated that if we ignore the increasing level of revolutionism among seminarians today, ‎we will be regretful over the future and the next generation of seminarians and added, “If we ‎try to educate the seminarians in a revolutionary manner today, we will no doubt be proud ‎of seeing the revolutionary seminarians tomorrow.”‎
‎ ‎
Ayatollah Tavakkol stressed that the revolutionary movement in the Islamic Seminaries ‎started from the beginning of the movement of Imam Khomeyni and stated, “Today, the ‎Islamic Seminaries are on the path of revolutionism but they still haven’t reached the ideal ‎level from view of the Supreme Leader.”‎

He said that in order to increase their level of insight and revolutionism, seminarians must ‎pay more attention to the words of the Supreme Leader and stated, “The Supreme Leader is ‎an awakened and time-conscious individual and with his insightful words, he has revealed to ‎us the plots of the influencers. He provides us with revolutionary standards and therefore, if ‎we focus our work on his words, we will certainly not regret it.”‎
