Tehran-IRAF- International Quds Day is one of the greatest legacies of the founder of the Islamic Revolution, Grand Ayatollah Ruhollah Mousavi Khomeini, which infused the spirit of resistance against global Zionism and opposition to international imperialism into the body of the Islamic world and freedom‑seeking people across the globe, keeping it alive as a sacred cause.
As time passes, this confrontation has reached an even more sensitive and historic point. Today, the conflict between what is described as the front of Islam and the American‑Zionist front represents the tangible manifestation of this identity‑based, ideological, and human confrontation.
Today, March 12, while the people of Iran, before the eyes of the world—mark the fourteenth day of confrontation with the American‑Zionist front in what is called the “Ramadan War,” people continue this annual tradition by gathering in squares, streets, and prayer grounds across Iran. Once again, they raise the chants of “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” louder, clearer, and more firmly than before.
In Tehran, this march began at 10:30 a.m., with the participation of various segments of Muslim and revolutionary citizens.
Call of the Islamic Development Organization to the People of Iran
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
“Glory be to Him who took His servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Al‑Aqsa Mosque, whose surroundings We have blessed, so that We might show him some of Our signs.”
International Quds Day is the enduring and strategic legacy of the great founder of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini, and an unparalleled symbol of unity among the Islamic community and freedom‑loving people around the world in defense of the oppressed Palestinian nation and in opposition to what is described as the brutal, illegitimate, and occupying Zionist regime. It is a day when free nations, by appearing in the public arena, raise their voices for justice and support the cause of the liberation of holy Jerusalem.
This year’s grand Quds Day march is being held at a time when West Asia and our beloved country are in the midst of significant and decisive developments. The so‑called “Ramadan War” and the actions of Iran’s armed forces have once again revealed what supporters describe as the true nature of the Zionist regime and its backers. The steadfastness of the Iranian nation in the face of what is described as the war crimes of the United States and the occupying Zionist regime, and the continuation of a historic struggle to defend land and human dignity, has shown that the determination of resistant nations can break the fragile dominance of this regime and open new horizons of freedom and liberation for the region.
Under such circumstances, the great Iranian nation approaches International Quds Day while mourning the martyrdom of its distinguished and revered leader, along with a number of commanders and defenders of the country’s security. Although this martyrdom left deep sorrow in the hearts of believers, it has further revived the school of dignity, resistance, and opposition to domination that this courageous martyred leader embodied, spreading it among the Iranian nation and freedom‑seekers worldwide and creating a wave of solidarity, unity, and enthusiastic public presence.
Undoubtedly, this year’s International Quds Day march will be a magnificent display of the sacred unity of the Iranian people in their commitment to the ideals of the Islamic Revolution, their support for the oppressed Palestinian nation, and their backing of what is called the Resistance Front. This presence sends a clear message to the enemies of the nations of the region: that the issue of Palestine remains alive in the awakened conscience of Muslim nations, and that resistance will continue until the American‑Zionist adversary is forced to retreat and the liberation of Jerusalem is achieved.
The Islamic Propagation Coordination Council, while honoring the memory of all the noble martyrs of Islam, the Revolution, and the Resistance Front—especially the recently martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution and other fallen commanders—and while appreciating the dedication and strength of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran in safeguarding the country’s security and dignity, calls on all faithful, revolutionary, and aware people of Iran to participate widely, consciously, and decisively in the nationwide International Quds Day march at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, March 12, across the country. Through their presence, they will once again demonstrate the unity, awareness, and firm determination of the Iranian nation in condemning aggression, supporting the Palestinian people, and opposing oppression and occupation.
