After passing about three decades from the victory of the Islamic Revolution, there is still general passion and inclination abundantly for knowing this movement and its political creator. Maybe, all these movements and accidents passing through both boundaries of the Middle East from Mavara o nahr to shores of Mediterranean Sea have inspired from the Islamic Revolution founder’s thoughts. Imam Khomeini’s movement occurred in the bipolar world which was affected to the Cold War, but its consequences are being seen right now at the beginning of the new century. If “the Islamic awareness”? is the origin and axis of the International relations phenomenon, its appearance and emerge owe the name and personality who made a movement in the name of Muslims and deprived people. The “Qodsona News agency”? has asked the opinions of some of the Islamic world’s thinkers about the intellectual-political effects of Imam Khomeini. We read the brief of this interview here.
• Professor Abdolsatar Ghasem, the Palestinian writer:
He has written the first book in Arabic called “The fall of king of the kings”? about Iran’s Revolution after the fall of Pahlavi. He says: “I expected from the beginning of the revolution that Iran pave its way with quite but firm steps toward the future on the basis a way different from what we had observed before the revolution. Consequently, we can see that the leader of the Islamic Republic is trying to pave the mentioned way with his efforts in coordination and unity of the nation and being located in the position of the nation’s unity symbol. This Palestinian university teacher says: Iran removed the first barrier in the way of improvement and power by overthrowing Pahlavi kingdom by the leadership of Imam Khomeini, and now, it is moving in the way of improvement quietly and firmly guided by Ayatollah Khamenei after 8 years of war.
Professor Abdolsatar added: “I believe that Iran has reached great achievements in the period of Ayatollah Khamenei and is expected to improve day by day. Iran has been able to reach prominent improvements in all fields, but it has never tried to create false propaganda and hullabaloo about these technologic and scientific achievements. The US and Israel have become astonished seeing Iran’s power in different fields and they wonder how to oppose this newborn great power.
• Indian Journalist
Zafar Agha, the Indian Journalist believes that Imam Khomeini used to follow a main goal and it was nothing but liberation of the world’s nations and opposing colonialism and colonialist powers. Imam Khomeini used to say the word “Liberty”? whole his life and had based his goal upon this word. Imam Khomeini could introduce his own personality, movement, and message to not only Iranian nation, but also other people in the world. Meanwhile, he wanted the world’s nations to oppose the US and Israel if they want freedom. Zafar Agha was also happy about that Iranian nation could have been successful in actualizing Imam Khomeini’s objectives. He praise Mahmood Ahmadi Nejad, Iranian President, for his continuing Imam Khomeini’s way and added: “I am glad to see Ahmadi Nejad is also following Imam Khomeini’s way supporting the oppressed nation of Palestine and opposing the US.
• Mohammad Yusuf Ghorashi, Pakistani thinker
He has travelled to Iran for many times. He says that, today, the importance of Imam Khomeini’s word is very clear saying the unity of the Islamic world is the key of Muslims’ problems, especially, Palestinian, Iraqi, and Afghani people. The Orator of Pakistan mosque feels his gladness of the policy Ahmadi Nejad follows against the US and Zionism and the important role the Islamic Revolution is playing in the region and the Islamic world countries powered by that policy and added: “The Islamic Republic of Iran can meet its objectives following Imam Khomeini’s thoughts.
• Hussein Janati, Turkish clergyman
Imam Khomeini’s personality can be analyzed from the aspect of his influence on the movement under his leadership. Imam Khomeini started a movement after holy Imams in which he was an idol breaker like Abraham the Prophet and he taught all Muslims the lesson of bravery, jealousy, and manhood.
Fortunately, we witness that most of Islamic nations in the world, except their governments, started supporting Palestinian nation after getting the message from Imam Khomeini. Turkish clergyman points out the role of Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of the revolution in actualizing Imam Khomeini’s objectives and says: “Ayatollah Khamenei sends important messages for people of the world accordingly which can be very useful and working for many problems.
• Ahmad Roofi Yusuf, Nigerian writer:
Imam Khomeini has had a very important role in my idea and I am personally one people who have chosen him as their spiritual beliefs model. Imam Khomeini’s message did not belong to a particular group of thinkers or clergymen, but it has been an all-out message for all Muslim nations. What I have found out about Imam Khomeini’s personality from the Press, essays, books, or websites have led me to this conclusion that Imam Khomeini’s goal was keeping unity and extending liberation in all Islamic countries. Now, I believe that Ayatollah Khamenei is one of the most successful Islamic leaders who have been able to follow Imam Khomeini’s way very well.
• Komeil Nasr, the writer and researcher:
He says in expressing the intellectual penetration of Imam Khomeini: “Imam Khomeini’s body has just left us, but, his soul still remains among us and gives spirit to the Islamic nation. Imam Khomeini had really the mission of prophets and was honest in his words. The Palestinian nations get inspiration from Imam Khomeini in their campaigns.
• Ahmad Khalifeh, the Editor-in-chief of Alwatan Newspaper published in Sudan:
Imam Khomeini could create a revolution in the contemporary history of the world and in the 20th century being based on three main points:
1) Awakening Islamic spirit among Iranian nation
2) Peaceful invitation without any massacre or violence
3) Creating economical, social, and humane change in the life of Iranian nation
Islamic Iran is encountered with many challenges from big powers like the US, because, they are afraid of extension of humane and supreme intellects being issued by Imam Khomeini.
• Professor Hafez Abdolghafoor, the head of “Sirat”? study center in Pakistani “Besharat”? University:
Imam Khomeini was one of the great Islamic thinkers who were always supporting oppressed nations. Unfortunately, the world’s Muslims are not united now and are apart from each other because of the US and Israel’s conspiracy right now. Pointing out Imam Khomeini’s role in the Middle East changes, he said: “Since the Palestinian nation has always been under oppression, annoyance, and harassment; the subject of Palestine has been one of favorite subjects from the view of Imam Khomeini.
• Ali Moosavi, Father of Abbas Moosavi, the martyred Secretary-general of Lebanon’s Hezbollah:
The popular favor which Imam Khomeini owned could make great impacts on the Islamic world so that he supported not only Palestine, but also all deprived people of the world with his particular honesty, power, and bravery. We feel a special respect for Imam Khomeini and believe that Imam Khomeini’s message about popular favor of Palestine and supporting the great Qods was, in fact, the message of the Islamic world. Ali Moosavi called the supreme leader as the suitable substitute for Imam Khomeini and knew his leadership as Iran’s glory in the Islamic world and International society.
• Sand al sooiraki, the Palestinian writer and poet:
I remember many of his words, especially, the sentence in which he wanted to destroy the Zionist Regime. This is a subject which many of Arabic leaders do not dare to reveal. This Palestinian writer and poet said at the end: “I take this chance and thank Ayatollah Khamenei for his political experience and wisdom which has enabled him to fortify Iran’s position among Arab world and International society. I ask him to support Palestine and Palestinian people more and more again, because, Iran is the main supporter of Palestine in the world.
