The great Imam also managed a series of events and tackled several hurdles during the last ten days of struggle leading to the Islamic Revolution, he added.
Imam Khomeini was fully aware that if someone builds a movement on shaky foundations, it will continue to crumble and could be razed to grounds soon. Imam built the Islamic Revolution on very strong comprehensive foundations which could never be shaken by any storms and unpleasant happenings.
The Islamic Revolution happened at a very sensitive juncture of history as Imperialism, Communism and several other ideologies had influenced the societies and divided the world into several power blocs. Imam managed the Islamic Revolution in such a tough conditions and circumstances.
The great scholar of the Islamic world also concluded that hidden divine help could be felt throughout all process of the Islamic movement.
