Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei stressed on Friday that the enemies will never achieve victory over Hezbollah and Hamas.

In a memorial service for Hezbollah Secretary General martyr Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, Imam Khamenei sent a powerful message of unwavering support to the resistance groups in the region, especially in Lebanon and Palestine.

His eminence led Friday prayers for the first time in five years. The personal attendance of Imam Khamenei comes two days after Western media claimed that the Leader was allegedly “moved to secure location” after the assassination of Sayyed Nasrallah.

Under the title 'Friday of Victory,' the memorial service was held at the Imam Khomeini (PBUH) prayer hall in Tehran for martyr Sayyed Nasrallah, along with Brigadier General of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Abbas Nilforoushan, who was martyred along with the Hezbollah SG last week.

The ceremony saw participation from political, military, social, and community leaders, followed by Friday prayers led by Imam Khamenei.

Imam Khamenei delivered two sermons, one in Persian language while the other in Arabic language, in a bid to address the entire Muslim nation, especially the Lebanese and Palestinian people.

He warned that Tyrants aim to sow division and discord among Muslims as part of their arrogant policy, stressing that the Muslim nation has become aware today and can overcome these schemes against the enemies of Muslims.

“The policies adopted by our enemy is to sow the seeds of division and sedition, to drive a wedge among all the Muslims.

They are the same enemies to the Palestinians, Lebanese, Egyptians, and the Iraqis.

They are the enemy to the Yemeni and Syrian people,” the Leader told the large crowd.

“Our enemy is one,” his eminence affirmed, addressing thousands of worshipers carrying portraits of Sayyed Nasrallah and Ismail Haniyeh, former Hamas chief, who was assassinated by the Zionist enemy last July.

On the Iranian missile attack which took place on Tuesday, the Leader stressed that what Tehran did is the minimal punishment for the Zionist entity in response to its horrific crimes.

Arabic Sermon Addressing the nation in Arabic, Imam Khamenei said: “I chose to honor my dear brother, the pride of the Islamic world and eloquent voice of the region, Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, during Friday prayers in Tehran.” “We are all deeply saddened by the martyrdom of our dear Sayyed but consolation does not mean despair and confusion.” He affirmed, meanwhile, that “Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah’s body has departed, but his spirit, principles, and resonant voice will remain with us forever.” “The cowardly enemy, unable to deliver a decisive blow to the resistance’s cohesive structure, resorts to feigning victory through assassinations, killing civilians and breaking their hearts,” the Leader said.

“Hezbollah is truly a good tree.

Hezbollah and its martyred hero leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, are the essence of Lebanon’s virtues in its history and identity.” He assured that the Zionist entity “is rootless and unstable, barely surviving with US support, but, God willing, it will not endure.” “The resistance in the region will not back down, even as its fighters are martyred; it will emerge victorious,” Imam Khamenei said.

Imam Khamenei said the Islamic Republic won’t “procrastinate or rush to carry out its duty” in confronting the Zionist entity.

“The Palestinian people have a lawful right to defend themselves.

To stand up to those criminals – the occupation forces.

There is not a single court or international organization that can blame the Palestinian people for simply defending their homeland,” his eminence said.

The Leader stressed that every country has the right to defend itself from aggressor, stating: “Muslim nations have to prepare their defense against the common enemy.” Imam Khamenei also affirmed that Hamas’s Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7 attack and Iran’s recent ballistic missile strike were “legal and legitimate”.

“Each and every country, each and every people have the ultimate right to defend themselves against the ultimate tyranny,” the Leader told the cheering crowd.

“Over the past year, Operation Al-Aqsa Flood has forced this usurping entity to prioritize the preservation of its existence.”
