In the Name of Allah the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

I congratulate and condole martyrdom of honored Gen. Hamedani to and with his respectful family, relatives, friends & colleagues in glorious IRGC. This veteran, intimate and tireless fighter spend his pure and devout youth ages in frontlines of dignity and honor to defend the Islamic nation and the Islamic Republic and dedicated final years of his fruitful life and holy existence to defend Household of Prophet (AS) and to fight against the Takfiri and anti-Islam ruthless and realized his wish for martyrdom on the path of God and in fight for the sake of God in the same glorious front; and may Divine blessings and grace be pleasant to him.

The endless rank of those wishing this blessing and those committed to path of Jihad and martyrdom in the Islamic Iran and in IRGC and all Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic is a long rank and ‘compact structure’: “and of them are some who still wait, and they have not changed in the least” (33:23). May Divine blessings be upon martyr Hamedani and all fighters in the path of truth.

Seyyed Ali Khamenei
