TEHRAN (Defapress) - During the meeting, Imam Khamenei extended his congratulations to the participants on the occasion of the birth of Imam Hussain (pbuh). He emphasized the Quran's words, structure, concepts, and divine traditions, highlighting them as a remarkable miracle. Imam Khamenei emphasized that if this great miracle is utilized, all of humanity's problems will be resolved, and the lives of human societies will be organized.

He referred to the continuous miracles of the Quran and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as an immense blessing for humanity and the universe, emphasizing that when engaging with and reciting the Quran, individuals should fully acknowledge that they are encountering the miracle of the Final Messenger. In further explaining the Quranic concept of tawakkul (trust in God), the Leader stated: “According to the Holy Quran, whoever puts their trust in God, He is sufficient for them; therefore, if the conditions of tawakkul are fulfilled, this divine promise will certainly be fulfilled.”

Imam Khamenei described trust in God’s true promises as the mental prerequisite for reliance on Him and added: “One must have absolute certainty, without any doubt, that by God’s permission, even the impossible will become possible.”

He noted that the victory of the people of Gaza over the Zionist and American regimes is an example of the realization of the impossible. “If it had been said that the people of the small region of Gaza would fight against a great power like the US and emerge victorious, no one would have believed it. But this seemingly impossible event was realized by God’s permission,” he said.

The Leader of the Revolution cited presence in the field of action as the second condition for the fulfillment of the Quranic verse “Whoever puts his trust in God, He will suffice him” and said that in every matter, God has assigned a part of the responsibility to human beings.
“If, in addition to mental certainty in God’s promises, these duties are also fulfilled, without a doubt, any task—even if it seems impossible—will become achievable.”

According to Imam Khamenei, confrontation with global arrogance is not just limited the Iranian nation, but “the difference between the Iranian nation and others is that it has the courage to state this reality: that the US is an aggressor, a liar, a deceiver, and a colonialist that adheres to no human principles whatsoever.” Therefore, he went on, the Iranian nation chants “Down with America,” while others lack the courage to voice these truths, stand against the US, and play their part in the fight against Global Arrogance—hence, they achieve no desirable results.

In another part of his remarks, the Leader described the Iranian nation’s 46 years of patience and perseverance in the face of the alignment of all arrogant powers as the reason for the country’s growth in different fields. He added, “Not only did the Iranian nation not suffer a blow in this confrontation, but it also advanced and progressed in every way.”

The Leader also cited the training of thousands of young and teenage Quran reciters and memorizers across the country as an example of the nation’s spiritual advancements. In material aspects as well, the country has developed, with various major achievements carried out by the youth, he said, adding, “These advancements, with reliance on God, will continue until the nation reaches its peak and desired position.”

At the beginning of the ceremony, some top participants in the recent International Quran Competitions in the holy city of Mashhad, along with a group of outstanding young Quran reciters, recited passages from the Holy Quran and performed ibtihal (supplicatory chanting).
