What were Imam Predictions about struggle of the Iranian nation against the Shah Regime?


A) The victory of the Islamic Revolution
• I am determined to stop the despotic regime, with all my power, from doing anti-Islamic acts, and ours will be the final victory, God willing;" Allah's word it was that became the uppermost."
Sahifeh, vol1, Page: 226


• Nation of Iran! Rest assured that sooner or later victory will be yours. With his" government of national reconciliation", the Shah wants to make the dignified clergy and the respected politicians have a part in the massacres he has perpetrated; however, his ruse was exposed very early." Lo! The devil's strategy is ever weak." »1«
Sahifeh, vol3, Page: 478


• Our objective is to form an Islamic Republic and given the present situation, it is clearer than the sun for me that we will attain it in the near future.
Sahifeh, vol5, Page: 346

 

B) Downfall of the Shah regime and would be forced to flee

• respected young and old learned scholars and students! Be patient and resist; don't yield to oppression. These) people (are on the verge of annihilation and you live on. Bayonet cannot endure vis-a-vis the sentiments of a nation. Those blunt and fictitious swords will be sheathed. We have seen days of utmost darkness and most horrendous and mournful days under the reign of their predecessors. We have seen years of confrontation with the governments of suffocation and terror, with the governments of plunder and cruelty and lack of multi-faceted freedom; yet we resisted until they were gone. Now you, too, should resist until these people are also gone and face punishment for their misdeeds. Sahifeh, vol2, Page: 135


• Of course, if these governments stop supporting the Shah, the Shah's regime will soon fall apart, but this doesn't mean that if they support the Shah, we won't win. Our nation's victory is definite, the Shah is a goner and he must go ... whether the Arab and Western governments support him or not. But we expected our Arab brothers to at least have religious consciousness. The Arab nations are on our side, and all of their conditions will change once we win.
Sahifeh, vol4, Page: 488


• the Shah will have to go, he will not stay. The nation will remain; they are the base.
Sahifeh, vol5, Page: 206

 

C) The army ranks would join the public

• Due to the fifty years of poisonous propaganda, the Iranian army has lost its thoughtfulness. We never expect the army to join the people immediately, but it will happen sooner or later.
Sahifeh, vol5, Page: 389

 

D) Fall of Bakhtiar Regime

• The first point that he has made is the thesis that the aliens have always been saying, that is, separation of religion from politics, in order to plunder our resources and he is the mouthpiece of the same people. As to whether we can overthrow his government, it will become clear in the future. His government is doomed to annihilation and victory belongs to the oppressed nation.
