The wave of Islamic revivalism was brought about by a breeze of the Islamic Revolution
A wave of Islamic revivalism and awakening has swept through the Islamic world, and Muslim nations are expressing a strong desire to return to Islam and practice this lofty religion. This awakening has stemmed from the great Islamic revolution of the Iranian people under the leadership of our late magnanimous Imam [Khomeini]. This is the reason for the hostility of arrogant powers towards our own nation, our Islamic revolution, and the system and Imam Khomeini.
The enemies told us not to export our Islamic revolution! And we said that revolution could not be exported, since it is not a commodity! However, our Islamic revolution, like the scent of spring flowers that is carried by a breeze, reached every corner of the Islamic world and brought about revival of Islam in various Muslim nations.
