We should raise children in a way that they would plant a kiss on their mother's hand: Imam Khamenei

We should raise children in a way that they would plant a kiss on their mother’s hand: Islam calls for this behavior. Respect, from child to mother, doesn’t contradict the emotional relationship between mother and child. Women should be held to a high esteem within their families. This is the way to prevent oppression against women.

Imam Khamenei in Meeting with Police Commanders:

The Police Force can play a big role in boosting production and combating smuggling

Remind and claim the ideals

What I would like to stress is that today we are in dire need of repeating, highlighting, working on, and demanding these [revolutionary] ideas in our society: such demands are significant. Demanding that [revolutionary] ideas be met is one of those issues we should not abandon. If this tremendous invasion on public opinion -- carried out by anti-revolutionary forces -- is not confronted, through these demands, it will definitely destroy things. Mentioning, highlighting, and pursuing our goals, and making demands for their implementation becomes a fortress against the destruction of public opinion and intellectual environments -- they are, unfortunately, working on intellectual environments as well -- and also managerial environments. Unfortunately, such attempts have exerted some influence in certain cases. So, an army of pious and revolutionary young individuals is needed here so that it enters the arena and demands the [revolutionary] ideals. The young people, themselves, should help with the implementation of such ideals; certainly, how they can help requires a separate discussion. If there is enough time to reach the second part, I will raise some points about this matter as well. Therefore, there is a need for highlighting [revolutionary] ideals, and this should be carried out with the special language of pious and revolutionary young individuals: whose characteristics are candidness and courageousness in expressing one's ideas. They express their ideas courageously: today, this was almost the case. We felt bravely motivated for saying certain things. Although I did not agree with some of the statements, I approve of courage. I completely approve of this warrior spirit from the young and revolutionary students. These valuable qualities should be constantly, outspokenly, and intelligently pursued by active young individuals.

Imam Khamenei in Meeting with Students:

The revolution has made progress in all Its goals and ideals

The following is the full text of a speech delivered on May 28, 2018, by Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, in a meeting with students on the 12th day of the month of Ramadan.

Hopefulness is the necessary condition for progress

Young forces -- all young individuals -- are another important element. Young forces play a pioneering role: they are, in fact, like a locomotive. They play the role of an engine: when a locomotive moves, it naturally makes the rest of the train move. Of course, this role can only be fulfilled if the responsibilities, which fall on the young forces, are carried out correctly. The spirit of hope, determination, and planning -- these three elements --are necessary as well. First of all, you should not lose one bit of hope. Some are constantly injecting despair into the society: this is carried out as a hostile course of action. Those who are doing this may not really be the enemy, but they are doing the enemy's work. Anyone who injects despair into the society is carrying out the enemy's work. They say, "It is not possible. It is of no use. Everything is in a mess." --This is the enemy's work. Hope is a necessary condition. Another element is determination and willpower: this involves carrying out decision-making: such elements require decision-making. Another element is planning. These tasks are not possible without planning: you should have these three elements in mind.

Ramadan, an opportunity to unleash the soul from the material world: Imam Khamenei

Ramadan provides the human soul with an opportunity to break free. The month of Ramadan is an opportunity for our souls to be purified of material factors that surround us. It provides an opportunity for our souls to become illuminated. This is the reason behind the existence of the month of Ramadan in sharia - it is an opportunity.

A selection of the statements of Imam Khamenei:

Why aren't the three European countries reliable?

U.S. 'support for Iranian people' is a big lie, has political reasons behind: Imam Khamenei

The U.S. politicians falsely claim that they support the people of Iran: these lies cannot be believed. Their goal is a political one. They want to destroy — using our own people —the security that exists in our country today. Iran’s security is unique to West Asia—where we are located. But the enemy sets out to make the Iranian people, themselves, destroy it.

What is the main philosophy of fasting during Ramadan? Imam Khamenei elaborates
