Imam Hassan Askari (pbuh) considered his followers to be his close family
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Hassan Askari (pbuh) considers his followers to be his close family, and
says, “There is a close family relationship between you and us.” This means that
we are like close family members; like father and child, like brothers. A
believer is the brother of another believer. That is, the relationship between
two believers is that of brotherhood, as in having the same parents, not even
like half-brothers. What is meant by a believer? The person who follows the way
of Imam Hassan Askari (pbuh). This is the strong organizational relationship
between the Imam (pbuh) and his followers...
Ayatollah Khamenei, 1972

Imam Hassan al-Askari (pbuh) is a role model for all believers, especially the youth
Imam Khamenei:
When this great man was martyred, he was only 28 years old. In the glorious
history of Shia Islam, there is no shortage of such people. With all those
virtues and spiritual characteristics, the father of our dear Imam of the Age
was only 28 years old when he was poisoned by his enemies. He is a role model:
the youth feel that they have a perfect role model in front of their eyes. Imam
Muhammad al-Jawad (a.s.) was martyred when he was 25 and Imam Hassan al-Askari
(a.s.) was martyred when he was 28 years old.
We are not the only ones who believe in their virtues and greatness, rather
their virtues have been acknowledged even by their enemies and those did not
believe in their imamate… Ayatollah Khamenei, February 29, 2012
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Hassan Askari's (pbuh) greatness attested to by both friends & enemies
Everyone including his supporters, his opponents, those who did not believe in
him, and everyone else acknowledged his knowledge, his piety, his infallibility,
his courage against his enemies, and his patience and steadfastness in the face
of hardships. When this great man was martyred, he was only 28 years old.
Ayatollah Khamenei Feb. 29, 2012
The Shias system spread extensively during the time of Imam Hassan Al-Askari
Imam Khamenei:
At the time of Imam Redha, Imam Jawad, Imam Hadi and Imam Hassan al-Askari
(pbut), the Shia communications were more extensive than any other time. At no
other time were Shia relations and the spread of Shiite system across the World
of Islam as extensive as during the time of these three Imams. The presence of
lawyers, representatives (nawwabs) and all that is narrated about Imam Hadi and
Imam Hassan al-Askari—for instance someone brought money to the Imam and the
Imam designated what the money would be spent on—are indicative of the same
fact. That is to say, despite being under custody, at the times of these two
noble Imams in Samarra as well as Imam Jawad and Imam Redha (though
differently), communications with the people expanded. These communications and
relations were also present before Imam Ridha, however, Imam Ridha’s moving to
Khorasan was very influential on the matter...
August 09, 2005
Different routs, same goal
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Sadeq, Imam Hadi and Imam Hassan al-Askari (pbut) fought and sacrificed
their lives for the resistance. This path leads to a clear goal. They migh have
taken different routes on this path, but they all lead to the same destination…
September 21, 2001

Imam Khamenei:
These days belong to Imam Hassan al-Askari (a.s.), who can be the role model for
all believers, especially for young people. Everybody including his supporters,
Shia Muslims, his opponents, those who do not believe in him and everybody else

The Islamic republic is the continuation of the holy Prophet’s Be’that
Imam Khamenei:
When the people of Iran stood behind a great personality like our magnanimous
Imam, when they passed through different obstacles, endured hardships, crushed
various problems and moved forward, when they destroyed the derelict network of
satanic taghut in the most important area of the region – Iran – and when they
erected an Islamic building, this is the continuation of the Holy Prophet’s
taghut. The Revolution was the continuation of the Holy Prophet’s be’that. The
Islamic Republic is the continuation of the Holy Prophet’s be’that. This is what
we are saying. He who is an enemy of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic
Republic is an enemy of Islamic be’that and the monotheistic movement, just like
the enemies who existed in the early Islamic era... Apr 3, 2019
“A mercy for all of creation” is a description that God, the Exalted, has used
in referring to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). He has not said that the Holy Prophet
is a mercy for a specific group of people or a particular nation in the world.
He is a mercy for everyone. He relayed the message he had received from God to
human beings.
Imam Khamenei
Dec. 17, 2016
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) socialized with slaves, ate with them and wore simple
clothes. He would eat whatever food was available. He would not dismiss any food
as being undesirable. These qualities are unique throughout the history of
mankind.
Imam Khamenei
Sept. 27, 1991
The main reasons behind the way Prophet Muhammad’s (pbuh) worshipped God were
the following: he did not consider anyone else to be a power comparable to God,
he did not fear other people and he did not abandon God’s path because of the
wishes of others.
Imam Khamenei
Sept. 27, 1991
The Holy Prophet’s morals when governing were such that he was vigilant in the
face of the enemy’s temptations and humble before the believers.
Imam Khamenei
May 12, 2000
Remembering God in all situations, relying on Him and asking for His help in all
circumstances–in times of honor, humiliation, hardship and comfort–are great
lessons Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) taught us.
Imam Khamenei
Sept. 27, 1991
Steadfastness & logical reasoning, the lesson and approach of infallible Imams
Imam Khamenei:
Look at how Lady Zainab spoke in the court of Ibn Ziyad and in the court of
Yazid. That is the correct way. That way is the true way of the Imams. Whoever
stands firm is moving along the way of these noble figures. Today too, those who
are standing firmly in Gaza and Lebanon are, in fact, acting in accord with the
way of these same Imams of the religion — the Imams of Guidance (pbut)…
An excerpt from the speech delivered by Imam Khamenei after a mourning ceremony that was held on the anniversary of Imam Jafar Sadiq’s (pbuh) martyrdom on April 24, 2025
Imam Sadiq (pbuh), a man of knowledge, struggle & political networking for
forming Islamic rule
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Sadiq (pbuh) was a man of struggle, a man of knowledge and a man who worked
with an organization. Everyone has heard about the fact that he was a man of
knowledge. His classes and the educational environment that he created were
unparalleled during the lives of the Shi’a Imams, both before and after him.
Imam Sadiq (pbuh) corrected all the Islamic traditions and Quranic concepts that
had been distorted for more than a century by malicious, corrupt or ignorant
individuals …

Imam Sadiq (as): a man of knowledge, organization, and struggle
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Sadiq (as) was a man of knowledge, a man of struggle, and a man of
organizational skills. We have all heard about him being a man of knowledge. His
teachings and the educational assembly he gathered was unique in the life
history of Shi’a Imams--before and after him. All true lessons of Islam and
authentic concepts of Quran that were distorted, during the previous century by
disbelievers, corruptors, or uninformed, were correctly expressed by Imam Sadiq
(as).
But we have heard less of him being a campaign leader. Imam Sadiq (as) was
engaged in a continuous campaign: a campaign for changing the (unjust)
government into an Islamic government based on the teachings of Imam Ali (as).
Imam Sadiq (as) prepared the ground, continuously, for the overthrow of Bani
Umayyah, and the bringing to power of the true Islamic government, i.e. the
Alawi government (one that complies with Imam Ali's principles)… September 05,

A great glad tidings, And a truth most radiant
The Islamic Republic of Iran the bright horizon of the world's tomorrow In an
age when the world flounders in the whirlpool of moral, political, and
civilizational crises, and material powers seek dominion over the soul and faith
of humankind, the Islamic Republic of Iran shines like a blazing torch in the
darkness of the era, with the voice of faith, justice-seeking, and resistance
against oppression a new hope for the free, oppressed, and monotheistic nations
of the world
Today's Iran is not merely a country, but a mission A mission for awakening, for
justice, and for the emergence of a truth the world has thirsted for over
centuries
Though China, by hosting its recent summit and showcasing its diplomatic prowess
and modern weaponry, managed to sour the taste of global arrogance and paint a
new scene of power before the eyes of the world and though its undeniable
economic, diplomatic, and military strength cannot be ignored, for these
developments are not mere spectacle but the tangible rise of a new power
redefining global balances Yet beyond these advances and behind the West's media
clamor, from baseless threats by America and Europe to widespread Islamophobia
and regional plots to encircle and weaken Iran, a profound and enduring truth is
taking shape
Despite orchestrated coups and regime changes in neighboring countries including
the overthrow of Syria's legitimate government by agents of America and the
Zionist regime and despite ongoing efforts to tighten pressure around Iran, it
is the Islamic Republic of Iran that, relying on its dazzling defensive power,
deep national solidarity, and faith in divine ideals, has erected a firm barrier
against the predatory ambitions of America, Israel, and certain Western states,
foiling their schemes one after another
Ultimately, it is Islamic Iran that, by winning hearts among the oppressed,
freedom-seeking, and monotheistic peoples, and by drawing upon the lofty
teachings of Mahdism, leads not only in politics and security, but also in
.spirituality and idealism a beacon of hope and awakening for nations
By paving the way for the emergence of the savior of justice and the spread of
global equity, the Islamic Republic of Iran renders the greatest service to
humanity and this is the mission that history will proudly record as a turning
point in the path of human civilization
And I proclaim this glad tidings: be assured that the storm of seditions shall
subside, the veils of false propaganda shall be lifted, and the vile faces of
the conspirators and tyrants of the age shall be exposed to the world
It is Islamic Iran that shall illuminate the path of humanity's future like a
guiding lantern Not by dominion over lands, but by sovereignty over hearts and
pure .souls, with truth, sincerity, and support for the oppressed and
downtrodden And that day shall be the fulfillment of divine promises and the
triumph of the camp of truth A day of global rejoicing upon hearing and
witnessing: "I am the remainder of God" beside the exalted Kaaba. God willing.

The 9th of Rabi' al-Awwal The Dawn of Divine Leadership and the Ark of Salvation
In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful "And We desired to show favor to those who were oppressed in the land, and to make them leaders and inheritors." Surah Al-Qasas, Verse 5
Imam al-Sadiq (peace be upon him) said:
When the Qa'im rises, there will be no land where the testimony 'There is no" god but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah' is not proclaimed." Bihar al Anwar, vol. 52, p. 374
The 9th of Rabi' al-Awwal marks a turning point in sacred history
the beginning of the Imamate of the awaited savior, Imam al-Mahdi (may God hasten his reappeara e). This day is not merely a date it is the dawn of a new .spiritual era, a call to active anticipation and preparation
We, the expectant ones, do not wait passively. We walk with insight and hope, and we recognize the Islamic Revolution of Iran as the ark of salvation in the stormy sea of the End Times. Led by Imam Khomeini and continued under the guidance of the Supreme Leader, this revolution is not just political it is a divine .movement that paves the way for global justice
Like Noah's Ark, this revolution offers refuge to all Muslim or non-Muslim who seek truth and righteousness. Whoever joins this sacred system aligns themselves with the Mahdist front and will be protected from the trials and tribulations of the apocalyptic age.
With the banner of divine leadership, the light of the Qur'an, and the spirit of Karbala, the Islamic Revolution prepares the ground for the promised reappearance. It is the living embodiment of the Qur'anic promise:
"We desired to make them leaders"
Today, the 9th of Rabi' al Awwal is not only the beginning of Imam Mahdi's leadership it is a reminder of our responsibility: to know, to act, and to connect. our hearts and deeds to the ark of salvation
O people of the world! If you seek deliverance from oppression, corruption, and confusion, know that the path to salvation lies in joining this divine revolution. It is the prelude to the reappearance and the reappearance is the dawn of justice, peace, and divine light.

Imam Mahdi (pbuh): the savior of humankind
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Mahdi’s Reappearance is the Start of Humankind’s Growth
Everyone - including the elites, those who can understand events, and the masses of people throughout the world in various countries who may be preoccupied with their daily life and unaware of developments – feel this need, either consciously or unconsciously. Of course, all religions have promised this. In all religions, there is a promise of relief and a great divine movement at the end of history, which is of course not the end of history. The real world and humanity's real life will start from when the Imam of the Time comes. So for the end of the situation that now exists in life, all religions have promised such a future …
Ayatollah Khamenei
April 9, 2020
When they reach the main road, they will not stop moving ahead. No, they will
start their movement toward lofty, divine goals because human beings enjoy an
inexhaustible capacity. Throughout these long centuries, humanity has moved
along deviated paths, the wrong paths, and difficult paths, and it has faced
various obstacles. With a pained, wounded, injured body it has moved along these
paths in order to reach this main road. This main road is the road of the time
of the Reappearance. It is the world that will be built after the Reappearance.
In a sense, humanity’s movement will start from that point.
Ayatollah Khamenei
July 9, 2011
Imam Mahdi (pbuh): the savior of humankind
Imam Khamenei:
Imam Mahdi’s (aj) presence during the Occultation
Believing in the Imam of the Time [Imam Mahdi (aj)] helps people to not succumb
[to evil] provided that they fully comprehend this belief. When this belief is
truly placed in hearts, its presence is felt among the people. The sacred,
beloved, Infallible Imam - the hub of the universe, the refuge of all creation -
is present even though he is in occultation and has not reappeared. How is it
possible to think he is not present? The devout believers feel his presence in
their hearts and with all their emotions and senses. Those individuals who pray
and supplicate God, read the Nodbeh Supplication with due attention and recite
Ziyara Aal Yasin while understanding what they are reciting, they feel the
presence of this great person, even if he has not yet reappeared. His absence
does not affect this feeling that he is present. He has not reappeared, but he
is present in the hearts and is among the people. How is it possible to believe
he is not present? A true Shi’a is someone who feels the Imam’s presence and
feels that he is before him. This gives vitality and enthusiasm to a person.
This great nation needs this hope more than anything else. The nation, which
fights on the path of God and for the sake of the greatness of Islam, has become
an honor for all of human history and for all of the history of Islam. In our
time, it has raised the flag of Islam. Such a nation needs this bright hope more
than anything else. This belief brings this hope for them…
Ayatollah Khamenei Jan. 07, 1996
Imam Mahdi (pbuh): the savior of humankind
Imam Khamenei:
One of the Most Important Goals of Imam Mahdi’s (aj) Government
One of the things that is required in the area of internal politics is social justice. A society will not be Islamic if social justice does not exist or if justice isn’t ensured in that society. If someone imagines that it is possible for us to practice divine religion – any real religion, not just Islam – in a place where social justice, in the correct and broad sense of the word, has not been established, he should know that he is mistaken. The goal of the prophets was to uphold justice, “So that mankind may maintain justice” (Qur’an 57:25). The prophets came to uphold justice. Of course, upholding justice is part of the process. It’s not the ultimate goal. Therefore, the first task of the [prophets] who came was to uphold justice and save people from the evil and oppression of tyrants. The goal of Imam Mahdi’s (pbuh) government at the end of time is this same kind of justice … Ayatollah Khamenei Jan. 29, 1990

Imam Mahdi (pbuh): the savior of humankind
Imam Khamenei:
Belief in Imam Mahdi (aj): One of the Most Important Tools in Fighting Colonialism
I saw a document that was from decades ago. That is, it was related to the time
when colonialism had just entered Northern Africa. The countries in Northern
Africa are strongly interested in the Household of the Prophet (pbut).
Regardless of the Islamic denomination, they believe in, they like the Household
of the Prophet (pbut). In countries like Sudan, in Maghreb, and in other
countries of that region, the belief in the school of thought of Imam Mahdi (aj)
is pronounced. When colonialism entered the aforementioned regions over the past
century, one of the matters that troubled colonialism was the belief in Imam
Mahdi (aj)! In the document I saw, the heads and commanders of colonialism
suggested they needed to do something so that the belief in Imam Mahdi (aj)
would gradually be removed from the people. At that time, the French and English
colonizers were present in some of the African countries. No matter where the
colonizers had come from, they came to this conclusion that until the belief in
Imam Mahdi (aj) existed among these people, they would not be able to completely
control these countries!
There are a number of features in the belief in the school of thought of Imam
Mahdi (aj) which work like blood in the body and soul of the material body. One
of these features is hope. Sometimes, powerful, strong hands bring weak nations
to the point where they completely lose hope. When they lose hope, they won’t
make a move. They think that it is useless and that it is too late. They think
they cannot confront the powers because they won’t succeed. This is the spirit
of despair. This is what colonialism seeks. Today, the global Arrogant Powers
want Muslim nations, including the dear Iranian nation, to be afflicted with the
spirit of despair. Then they will say, “We cannot do anything, it is useless!”
The Arrogant Powers want to inject this into the people by force.
