On the first day of the year 1404 in the Iranian solar calendar [March 21, 2025], the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khamenei, met with thousands of people from various walks of life.

During the meeting, which took place in the Imam Khomeini Husseiniyah, the Leader spoke about the Iranian tradition of welcoming the New Year with prayers, supplications, and gatherings in sacred places, viewing it as a reflection of the nation's spiritual outlook on Nowruz. He characterized the past year as one marked by patience, resilience, and the manifestation of the Iranian people's spiritual strength, while also explaining the significance of prayer and steadfastness in achieving significant victories for the Front of Truth throughout history.

Imam Khamenei described the current period during the month of Ramadan as dedicated to Imam Ali (AS) and emphasized that the Iranian people and Muslim nations should turn to the Nahj al-Balagha to draw lessons from Imam Ali (AS), who is regarded as the greatest human being after the Prophet (AS). He also advised individuals active in the cultural field to "pay special attention to studying and teaching this magnificent book."

Imam Khamenei described the Nights of Qadr as a valuable opportunity for prayer and supplication to the Almighty. "Each hour of these nights is worth an entire lifetime, and seeking intercession from the Imams, coupled with the prayers of the people – especially the youth – has the power to change their destiny and the fate of an entire nation’s life," he remarked.

In the continuation of his remarks, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution referred to the statements of US politicians about Iran, stating, "The US must know that when facing Iran, threats will never achieve anything."

He further added, "The US and others must know that if they commit any malicious act against the Iranian nation, they will receive a severe blow."

Imam Khamenei described the interpretation of US and European politicians regarding the Resistance centers as Iranian proxy forces as a major mistake and an insult to these groups. "Why do you label them as proxies? The people of Yemen and the Resistance centers in the region have an inner motive to stand against the Zionists, and the Islamic Republic of Iran does not need proxies. Our stance is clear, and so is theirs."

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution described the steadfastness and resistance against the malicious and oppressive acts of the Zionist regime as a deeply rooted matter in the region. "When Palestine was first occupied, one of the countries that stood against the Zionist regime’s oppression was Yemen, whose ruler at the time participated in an international assembly to oppose the occupation of Palestine," he remarked.

He referred to the expansion of protests against the crimes of the ruthless Zionist regime against non-Muslim nations, as well as the popular and student demonstrations in the United States and European countries. "Western officials resort to actions such as cutting university funding for students who have protested in favor of Palestine, which, of course, is also a reflection of their claims regarding free flow of information, liberalism, and human rights," he stated.
