Salaam dear young friends. Hopefully you are all fine by the Grace of God and basking in the blessings of the birth anniversary of the Lord of the Age, Imam Mahdi (AS), which we celebrated last week on Wednesday.
We are eagerly awaiting God’s Promise of his reappearance to cleanse the world of all vestiges of corruption and oppression by establishing the global government of peace, prosperity, and justice.
As a matter of fact, it is faith in the 12th Infallible Heir of Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) that grants meaning to our life in these times of gross injustice, hypocrisy and rampant terrorism, fueled by devilish regimes, such as the Zionists, the Arab reactionaries, and the godfather of all mischief, the Great Satan (US).
It is only adherence to the genuine teachings of Islam as propounded by the Ahl al-Bayt and as promoted throughout the ages by the God-fearing ulema such as the Father of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini (RA), and his worthy successor, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei that inspires us to defeat the plots of Global Arrogance.
So young friends, keep up your good work. It is the exuberance of youth, and that too virtuous and dedicated youth, which guarantee the country’s future in building a sound and healthy society.
Dear friends, as we had mentioned above, today happens to be our last chat of the outgoing year, 1401 solar hijri, in view of the New Year holidays to start from next Sunday, we wish you a Happy Nowrouz in advance.
For the information of the foreign readers of our weekly column, the Calendar Year in Iran, since ancient times, is based on the Vernal or Spring Equinox, starting on March 21, and is more perfect than the Gregorian Calendar of the West.
Since Iran is a Muslim country, the official calendar, like its lunar hijri counterpart, is dated as per the auspicious migration of Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) from Mecca to Medina.
Goodbye and God bless you dear young friends, until our next chat in the new Iranian Year 1402 in the first week of April.
