Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, has underscored this significance in a recent message.

In his address at the conference, Ayatollah Khamenei described seminaries as vital centers for innovation, progress, and addressing contemporary challenges. He emphasized the following key points:

  • Active Engagement: Scholars are urged to engage actively in promoting Islamic principles.
  • Historical Leadership: He highlighted the influential role of religious scholars in Iran and Iraq’s major reform movements over the past 150 years.
  • Articulating Islamic Tenets: The seminary is tasked with articulating and promoting the tenets and culture of Islam.

According to Ayatollah Khamenei, the ultimate goal of the Islamic Revolution is to establish a civilization where science, technology, governance, and military power are aligned with social justice, public welfare, and spiritual growth. He called upon seminaries to play an active role in realizing this vision, ensuring that Islamic philosophy and jurisprudence make meaningful contributions to modern society.

Furthermore, Ayatollah Khamenei acknowledged the invaluable support of senior clerics for the Palestinian cause, noting their reactions as significant historical documents that reflect their commitment to justice.
