Question: Would you like to introduce yourself at the first?

Question: How did you come to know about the personality of Imam Khomeini?


Robina Fairuz:  Once we organized a joint program with close coordination of the Iranian Embassy. I came to know that we were planning the program and ceremony about a great personality of contemporary history. Then I started to explore the works and ideals of the founder of the Islamic Republic. 




Question: What is your opinion about Imam Khomeini


Robina Fairuz:  There are very small number of people who are born as leaders. Imam Khomeini is one of few of rare personalities.  Imam has been a gift from God, the Almighty, as he influenced millions by leading a matchless revolution. He inspired a great consciousness and raised awareness among people and societies. 




Question: How did you find Iran following the victory of the Islamic Revolution?


Robina Fairuz:  I did not know too much about the accomplishments of revolution before visiting Iran.  After my recent arrival, I felt that the Iran’s Islamic Revolution’s leaders did not only make promise for progress, but have also kept and fulfilled it. Iran’s progress is a direct result of ideals of Imam Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic.




Question:  How do you describe Imam Khomeini just in a single expression? 


Robina Fairuz:  Imam Khomeini has been a great and strong leader. It seems difficult that a leader decorated with similar qualities as of Imam Khomeini can reemerge in history again. Robina Fairuz , an educational activist form the Indian port city of Mumbai, made remarks on the sidelines of an event while visiting Iran.
