Ayatollah Khamenei in Major Hajj Message: The Future Belongs to the Islamic Ummah
The Leader says American domination is fading, praises the victories of the Resistance Front, and declares the Zionist regime is approaching its final collapse
Iran, PUREWILAYAH.COM — Ayatollah Sayyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei issued a powerful Hajj message to the Islamic Ummah, declaring that the future belongs to Islam and the emerging Islamic civilization while affirming that the Zionist regime is nearing the end of its existence.
According to Khamenei.ir, the message was read on Tuesday in the plains of Arafat by Hojjatoleslam Seyyed Abdolfattah Navab, the representative of the Leader and supervisor of Iranian pilgrims.
In the message, Ayatollah Khamenei described Hajj not merely as a religious ritual, but as a divine path of migration toward Allah, resistance against oppression, purification of the soul, and liberation from domination by arrogant powers.
He stated that the rituals and symbols of Hajj represent a permanent call for humanity to reject tyranny, struggle in the path of truth, defend the oppressed, and establish a life centered upon servitude to Allah.
“Allahu Akbar” transformed Iran into the fortress of resistance
Throughout the address, Ayatollah Khamenei repeatedly emphasized “Allahu Akbar” as the spiritual and revolutionary weapon that transformed Iran into the central stronghold of resistance against American and Zionist domination.
According to the message, it was through faith, sacrifice, and reliance upon Allah that the Iranian nation overthrew the “dictatorial and dependent” Pahlavi regime, expelled arrogant American influence from Iran, and completely uprooted Zionist penetration from the country.
The message praised the Iranian people for their steadfastness during the Sacred Defense against Saddam Hussein’s Ba‘athist regime and for resisting decades of sanctions, economic warfare, political pressure, and destabilization campaigns directed against the Islamic Republic.
Ayatollah Khamenei portrayed the Iranian nation as a people shaped by sacrifice, resistance, and unwavering trust in Allah.
Resistance Front reshaped the balance of power in West Asia
Ayatollah Khamenei praised the Resistance Front stretching from Iran, Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq, and Syria to Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and other nations resisting Western and Zionist hegemony.
He stated that the spirit of resistance united the Islamic Ummah against Zionist aggression, crushed داعش (ISIS), launched the historic Al-Aqsa Flood operation, and pushed the Zionist regime toward collapse.
The message described the Resistance Front as a decisive force reshaping the political and strategic future of West Asia while defending the dignity of oppressed nations worldwide.
According to Ayatollah Khamenei, the unity and sacrifices of the Resistance Front shattered many American and Zionist strategic calculations in the region.
Iran achieved victory in the Second and Third Imposed Wars
In one of the strongest sections of the message, Ayatollah Khamenei declared that the Islamic Republic achieved major victories during the “Second Imposed War” in Khordad 1404, inflicting severe blows upon the Zionist regime and delivering what he described as “a harsh slap” to the United States.
He emphasized that the enemies completely failed in their objective of forcing Iran into surrender.
The message also highlighted the victories achieved during the “Third Imposed War,” in which Iranian armed forces and the Resistance Front — particularly beloved Lebanon and Hizbullah — confronted the American-Zionist alliance across multiple fronts.
Ayatollah Khamenei stated that Iran’s missiles and drones operating across land, sea, and air humiliated both the United States and the Zionist regime and demonstrated the fulfillment of Allah’s promise to grant victory to the mujahideen.
The address portrayed these victories as historic turning points accelerating the decline of American influence throughout the region.
Tribute to Martyr Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei
In one of the most emotional passages of the message, Ayatollah Khamenei paid tribute to the martyrdom of Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei, describing him as “the worthy son of the Noble Prophet Muhammad.”
He stated that despite the painful tragedy, the Iranian nation experienced a “divine rebirth” and astonished the world through its unity, sacrifice, and revolutionary spirit.
According to the message, the Iranian people responded to the martyrdom of their leader with stronger faith, broader participation, and renewed determination to continue the path of resistance and Islamic governance.
“Death to America” and “Death to Israel” will remain the slogans of the Ummah
Ayatollah Khamenei stressed that this year’s repudiation of the polytheists carries greater importance than ever before and extends far beyond the formal rituals of Hajj itself.
He declared that “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” will remain the common slogans of the Islamic Ummah and oppressed peoples across the world, particularly among the youth.
The message further emphasized that the nations of the region will no longer serve as shields protecting American military bases and that Washington is steadily losing its former dominance throughout West Asia.
“Israel will not survive”
Reaffirming the historic declaration associated with the Resistance Axis, Ayatollah Khamenei stated that the Zionist regime and the “cancerous tumor” of Israel are approaching the final stages of their existence.
He emphasized that, by the grace of Allah, the Zionist regime will not survive the historical timeline previously outlined by the leaders of the Resistance Front.
The message portrayed the decline of Israel as part of a broader global transformation driven by resistance movements and the awakening of Muslim nations.
Call for Islamic unity and a new world order
The message concluded with a strong appeal for solidarity, cooperation, and strategic unity among Muslim nations and governments.
Ayatollah Khamenei stated that the Islamic Ummah possesses enormous shared capacities capable of shaping a new regional and global order independent from American domination.
He urged Muslim countries to strengthen cooperation, defend Palestine and Masjid al-Aqsa, support the oppressed, and continue advancing toward final victory over global arrogance.
The address also called upon pilgrims to pray for the reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi, the liberation of Palestine, the unity of Muslims, and the continued triumph of the Resistance Front.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
“Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk, Labbayka La Sharika Laka Labbayk, Innal Hamda wan-Ni‘mata Laka wal-Mulk, La Sharika Lak...”
O Allah! I answer Your call. You have no partner. All praise belongs to You, all blessings belong to You, and all dominion and power belong to You.
The Hajj season of this year has once again arrived. The pilgrims of the Islamic Ummah have pronounced the talbiyah so that they may migrate from material and ordinary life toward a divine and blessed life; a monotheistic life centered upon servitude to Almighty Allah.
Yet the opportunity for this migration does not belong only to this year’s pilgrims of the Sacred House of Allah. It encompasses all Muslim brothers and sisters throughout the world — from those who performed Hajj in previous years of their lives to those who have not yet been granted the success to perform its rites.
The condition of this migration is to bind oneself permanently in the ihram of remembrance of Allah; to continuously circumambulate around the axis of Truth; to constantly strive between the lofty summits of divine obligations; to wage an unceasing stoning against the evil Satan with all his deceptive manifestations and all his followers; to stand in devotion mixed with humility and supplication; to feed the poor, the helpless, and the traveler; to sacrifice vain desires and corrupt inclinations and cleanse the inner self from impurities; and in all circumstances to remain prepared for service and to raise the banner of defending the Truth.
Thus did the Iranian nation, at the miqat of the Islamic Revolution, step upon the path of this migration. It answered the Abrahamic call of Imam Khomeini the Great, cast off the garment of submission to domination, clothed itself in the ihram of worldly and eternal felicity, and cried “Labbayk” while striving around the axis of the teachings of pure Muhammadan Islam, seeking to draw nearer to the radiant light of universal justice and supreme guardianship.
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillahil hamd, Allahu Akbar ‘ala ma hadana.
Yes, Allah is the Greatest...
It was with this weapon of “Allahu Akbar” that the Muslim nation of Iran rose forty-seven years ago, overthrew the tyrannical and dependent Pahlavi regime, severed the hands and feet of the greedy and arrogant America from the country, and completely uprooted Zionist influence.
It was with this same weapon of “Allahu Akbar” that after the aggression of Saddam’s Ba‘athist regime against Iran, the courageous fighters and self-sacrificing youth created the epic of the eight years of Sacred Defense, and despite the support of all Eastern and Western powers for the Ba‘athist regime, forced it back into its place.
And with this steadfastness they continued firmly and resolutely for years afterward against economic blockades, coups, oppressive sanctions, and the countless political, propaganda, and economic attacks launched by enemies against the Islamic Republic.
And Allahu Akbar...
It was this weapon of “Allahu Akbar” that strengthened the bonds connecting the Islamic Ummah and the youth of the Resistance Front from Iran to Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq, and Syria, from Africa and Yemen to Afghanistan and Pakistan, and all the free nations of the world, so that this strong rope might rise in defense of the Islamic Ummah against Zionist usurping aggressors, crush ISIS, launch the Al-Aqsa Flood, and bring the unstable Zionist regime to the brink of collapse.
Allahu Akbar...
Indeed Allah, Blessed and Exalted, is greater than can be described.
It was with this weapon of “Allahu Akbar” that the Islamic Republic of Iran succeeded in the Second Imposed War in Khordad 1404 in leaving the Zionist regime helpless beneath severe blows, delivering a harsh slap to the aggressive America, and frustrating the enemy in its objective of forcing Iran into surrender.
And the weapon of “Allahu Akbar” granted such strength and power to the Iranian nation that after the heartbreaking martyrdom of the great leader, the worthy son of the Noble Prophet Muhammad, Ayatollah al-Uzma Sayyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei — may Allah elevate his noble station — at the hands of the wicked criminals of the world, the nation today experienced a divine rebirth and, with comprehensive participation in every arena where it was needed, dazzled the eyes of the world with its achievements.
Allahu Akbar...
Indeed Allah, Blessed and Exalted, is greater than can be described.
It was with this weapon of “Allahu Akbar” that the courageous fighters and armed forces of Islamic Iran, together with the mujahideen of the Resistance Front — especially beloved Lebanon — achieved remarkable victories against the two terrorist and heavily armed American-Zionist armies in the Third Imposed War.
Through trust in the Lord Almighty and by means of their missiles and drones on land, sea, and air, they humiliated the Great Satan, namely America, and its trained beast, the Zionist regime, and witnessed with their own eyes the truthful divine promise of granting victory to those who struggle in the way of Allah.
And once more, Allahu Akbar...
Without doubt, Allah the Exalted is greater than can be described, and His armies prevail over every power.
It is with this weapon of “Allahu Akbar,” following the rebirth of the Iranian nation and the Resistance Front, that the rebirth of the Islamic Ummah shall take shape, and the repudiation of the polytheists shall spread from the stoning pillars of Hajj into the scenes of personal, social, and political life across the Muslim world.
The Islamic Ummah and the nations of the region possess many shared capacities and common interests that will shape the new order and future architecture of the region and the world.
With sincerity and devotion, I invite all Islamic countries and governments to friendship and cooperation in goodness and righteousness so that together we may advance the progress of the Islamic Ummah and resolve the problems of the Muslim world.
What is certain is that the hands of time will not turn backward, and the nations and lands of the region will no longer be shields for American bases.
America, in addition to no longer possessing a safe point for mischief and military bases in the region, is distancing itself day by day from its former position.
The unstable Zionist regime and the cancerous tumor of Israel are also approaching the final stages of their cursed existence, and by Allah’s grace — in accordance with the decisive and forward-looking statement made ten years ago by the great martyred leader of Quds, may Allah sanctify his soul — they shall not see twenty-five years from that date, God willing.
For this reason, the issue of repudiation of the polytheists carries doubled importance this year, and the depth and scope of repudiation against America and the Zionist regime extend beyond the rituals of repudiation during the Hajj season and sacred stations.
From now onward, in different parts of Iran and the world, “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” shall remain the common slogan of the Islamic Ummah and the oppressed peoples of the world, especially the youth.
The future belongs to the Islamic Ummah and the new Islamic civilization, and each of us can play a role according to our capacity and responsibility in realizing and bringing nearer that future.
The Iranian pilgrims this year possess an influential and prominent role in narrating the victory of the Third Imposed War to their Muslim brothers and sisters and inspiring them with hope for a bright future.
I ask all pilgrims and Hajj performers to pray for the hastening of the reappearance of the Savior of humanity, Imam al-Mahdi — may Allah hasten his noble reappearance — and to pray for the unity of the Islamic Ummah, the liberation of Palestine and Masjid al-Aqsa, the removal of the great afflictions facing Muslims, and the attainment of final victory against global arrogance.
I also ask them to include me in their righteous prayers.
O Lord! Send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. Envelop the pilgrims and the entire Islamic Ummah with Your mercy and compassion. Grant them an accepted Hajj. Illuminate their hearts with the lights of knowledge and insight. Strengthen their determination and will in moving upon the path of reforming the condition of the Ummah and achieving final victory over the enemies of Islam.
O Lord! Bestow Your vast grace and mercy upon the pure souls of the martyrs in the path of Allah, especially the martyrs of the Resistance Front and at their head the great martyred leader — may Allah elevate his noble station.
Grant abundant reward to the spirits of the pilgrims, worshippers, and striving believers who were guided and led by him, and aid the Iranian nation and the Islamic Ummah in continuing his path and objectives.
O Lord! Send Your greatest blessings and salutations upon our master and guardian, the Awaited Mahdi — may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him and his pure forefathers — and include all of us and the Islamic Ummah within his pure prayers and accepted supplications.
Illuminate the world through his blessed advent as You promised.
“And Allah has promised those among you who believe and do righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession upon the earth as He granted it to those before them, and that He will surely establish for them their religion which He has approved for them, and that He will surely replace their fear with security.”
Peace be upon all our Muslim brothers, and the mercy and blessings of Allah.
