AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Concurrent with the Arba'een of the martyrdom of the Supreme Leader of the Revolution, organized by Jamiat al-Zahra (a.s.) in Lucknow, India, and in collaboration with the General Department of Women and Family of the Deputy for International Affairs of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, a webinar for Urdu-speaking sisters titled "The Status and Responsibility of Women in the Current Situation" was held.
In this online session, Dr. Roknabadi, the Director General of the Department of Women and Family Affairs of the Assembly, after welcoming the sisters present in the meeting, stated, "The subject of our discussion is the re-examination of the personality dimensions of a great man who was not only the leader of a country but also a symbol of resistance against global oppression and the modern architect of the identity of Muslim women in the present era."
Expressing the course of his life, she said, "His life was intertwined from the beginning with 'continuous struggle.' From his youth in Mashhad and Qom, when he stood up against Pahlavi tyranny and endured harsh imprisonments and exiles, to his presidency and then leadership. The key point in his life was 'sincerity' and 'organizational discipline.'"
Dr. Roknabadi, referring to the Leader's great aspiration, continued, "Grand Ayatollah Khamenei's aspiration was not merely the preservation of a government; rather, he sought the 'revival of the new Islamic civilization.' The martyred Leader believed that Islam has the power to meet all the needs of modern humanity. In his view, Iran is only the starting point, and the ultimate aspiration is the global awakening and liberation of all humanity from the clutches of materialism and modern colonialism. He always emphasized the unity of Muslim nations and considered the deep connection between the people of Iran and India as a valuable historical and cultural root."
