RNA – In an exclusive interview with Rasa News Agency, Hujjat al-Islam GholamReza Mesbahi-Moqaddam, a member of the Expediency Discernment Council, referred to the historic Friday prayer sermon of Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution and said, “For the friends of the Islamic Revolution, the message of this magnificent and strong prayer is not to forget the martyrdom of Haj Qasem Soleymani and the blessings he has created for the Islamic Revolution at home, in the region and internationally.”

His Eminence said that the epic created by the people in his funeral ceremony and the escorting of his body must not be neglected and added, “According to the statement of the Supreme Leader, this epic was a ‘Day of God’ because the people gave a strong response to the cowardly action of the United States in martyring Haj Qasem Soleymani with their glorious presence.”

He described the reason that this Day of God was a day of “tough revenge” by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on the United States’ Ayn al-Asad Airbase in Iraq is due to the fact that it led to the collapse of the American hegemony in the region and added, “The infliction of heavy blows on the Ayn al-Asad Airbase was another defeat inflicted on the United States’ by the Islamic Revolution.”

Hujjat al-Islam Mesbahi-Moqaddam, stated that the IRGC’s missile attack on Ayn al-Asad will provide the means for the withdrawal of the United States from the region, “This great act is also a Day of God because the defeat of American hegemony provides the means for the withdrawal of the United States from the region.”

Pointing to the need for people to pay attention to these two Days of God, the first being the martyrdom of Haj Qasem Soleymani and second being the IRGC’s tough revenge against the United States, he emphasized, “Undoubtedly, the hand of God’s power and will lies behind these two Days of God and we must not forget them.”

He insisted that the path of Haj Qasem Soleymani must continue with rage and said, “The Supreme Leader’s strategic Friday prayer sermon also conveyed a message to the enemies that the martyrdom of Haj Qasem Soleymani initiated a transformation in the West Asian region.”

Hujjat al-Islam Mesbahi-Moqaddam said that today we are witnessing the better growth and progress of the Islamic Revolution in the region and the world and added, “It’s worthwhile for the Islamic, oppressed and deprived nations of the world to unite with each other and inflict more blows on the arrogant powers of the world.”

He emphasized that the arrogant powers of the world must learn from the defeats that they have suffered and no longer attack the Islamic Revolution and the region and stressed, “The Iranian people must become stronger against their enemies.”
