The following is the full text of the message issued on November 
5, 2013 by Ayatollah Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic 
Revolution, on the demise of Habibollah Asgar-Oladi (may God bestow 
paradise on him).
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I received
 the news of the demise of Mr. Hajj Habibollah Asgar-Oladi- sincere 
mujahid and the loyal and trustworthy companion of our late Imam- with 
great sadness and regret. 
This
 tireless warrior spent his entire blessed life rendering services to 
Islam and working towards the formation and establishment of Islamic 
government. From the time of his youth until the last years of his life,
 his great efforts and pure jihad did not lose strength on this path.
During
 the time of taghut and from the first days of the revolutionary 
activities of our people and the clergy, he was present - alongside our 
magnanimous Imam - in dangerous fronts. He patiently endured the pain of
 years of imprisonment.
After the victory of the Revolution and 
the formation of the Islamic Republic, he rendered genuine services in 
sensitive and significant arenas and he did not stop making efforts 
until the end of his eventful life.
I ask God to bestow His mercy and blessings on him and I express my condolences to his family and friends.
Sayyid Ali Khamenei
