Imam Khomeini's statement on Ayatollah Motahari Martyrdom
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Truly we are from God and we will return to Him
“Hereby I would express my condolences as well as my congratulation to Islam, the Islamic nation, especially to the resisting nation of Iran for this disaster of loosing the honorable Professor Haj Sheikh Morteza Motahhari (May his spirit be sanctified).
Condolence because of the martyrdom of the one who dedicated his precious life to Islamic aims and he campaigned against the deviations, condolence because of the martyrdom of the man who had no counterpart on Islamology and the other branches of Islamic techniques and those of the Holy Quran.
I have lost a very dear child of mine and I mourn for him who was among the figures who were my life achievement.
Islam has dealt a blow, because of such loss of a dear one, whose recover is impossible.
Although I have lost a very dear son of mine who was part of my soul, I am proud of such devoted children in Islam.
Terrorists can not terror the personalities of the Muslim brave men. Islamic plans had been so far mixed with the martyrdom. Killing the enemies of God is among the guidelines of the Islamic planning.
Those who had deeply experienced the defeat and their death and they wish to avenge or they imagine that they had terrified the Islamic combatants, are totally wrong.
The hair of every martyr and also every drop of their blood, which sheds on the earth, would lead to the creation of the resistant and determined people…
Rohollah al-Musavi-al Khomeini
