- As the first question, please explain how did you get familiar with Imam Khomeini's personality?
The personality of great people sounds like a fragrance; it spreads all over the world very fast. His perseverance against dictatorship is extremely admirable. His thought belongs not only to Iran but also to the whole Muslim world.

Imam was the founder of Islamic awakening; he promoted pure Muhammadan Islam in the region. We must, therefore, preserve his ideas against any form of distortion imposed by the enemies of Islam.

They are the leading figures. They must remain vigilant and foil the enemies' plots.
