“Qomwa Allah” is the motto of ceremonies in Arab societies
He stated that in the international environment, especially in the Arab world, in addition to the slogan “You must rise” which will be the focus of the activities inside the country, the slogan “Qomwa Allah” has been set for the ceremony, adding: as it was published in the announcement number 4 of the headquarters of the ceremony, it was also published in the khamenei.ir media. Comprehensive and complete explanations regarding the reason for choosing the slogan and the concept of “clenched fist” as the symbol of the ceremony have been fully explained. “Bayd Berkasht” is an extension of the same “Qiyamullah” that was read by the dear leader of the Islamic Revolution on the eve of the 14th of June this year, as the foundation of the school of Khomeini the Great and Khamenei the Martyr. The same uprising that started in June 1342 with Imam Khomeini’s movement and ended with the victory of the glorious Islamic revolution in Bahman 1957.
The spokesperson of the farewell, burial and funeral headquarters of Imam Mujahid Martyr added: “He must rise” which means that the pure blood of our Imam and martyr leader is so hot that it does not allow any fan to stop. “Must rise” means the covenant that the sent people made with the blood of their martyred leader and are loyal to it until the end of their lives.
Attarzadeh stated that in designing the slogan, we have tried to pay special attention to the international dimensions of the ceremony, and said: Therefore, since the mourning of the martyrdom of our martyred leader is not exclusive to the Iranian nation, and in all parts of the world, especially in the resistance front of the freedom fighters and freedom seekers of the world, they have also mourned this great martyrdom, the Islamic nation sings the slogan “Qomwa Allah” inspired by the same words of the divine school. “Qomwa Allah” is an extract of the last instructions and messages of our martyr Imam; “Qumwa Allah” is not only the advice of the martyred leader, but also the renewal of allegiance to his school and announcing to the world that greatness, faith and irreplaceable courage will continue with strength and fortitude.
