Srinagar, Jun 03 (KNS): J&K Anjuman Sharie Shian’s Advocate Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi paid rich tributes to Ayatollah Rohullah Khomeini (R.A) on his 30th death anniversary and lauded resilience Iranian nation has shown against all odds.

In a statement issued to KNS, Mehdi said founder of the Islamic Revolution Imam Khomeini (R.A), the twentieth century face of resistance and freedom. The much one goes deeper into his thought the more emancipated one feels. The Imam reconstructed the idea of being believer and progressive, his ideals gave meaning to the life that disapproves the hypocritical standards of the West.

Advocate Aga said looking at him from the feminist perspective, and see his powerful denunciation of oppression in any manifestation from unit of family to lager systems, as his call to end chauvinism and misogyny. The emphasis on the establishment of justice ensures equitability in the society. The Imam stood firm with the Iranian women’s opposition to the Westernisation Policy of Shah that demanded forced westernised dressing for both men and women.

“Apart from Hefty works of the Imam, his personal communication with the family, students and friends give a glimpse into his thought process and his companionate (not masculine) self. His simplicity and rejection of materialism is ideal and so unburdening,” Aga said.

Advocate Aga further said that The Imam’s unconditional support to Palestinian people sensitises us against the facades of power. Imam Khomeini (R.A) persuaded word nations to get united for restoring the violated rights of Palestinians by designating the last Friday of holy month of Ramadan as Quds Day. (KNS)
