Iran Press/ Iran news: The Leader of the Islamic Revolution met with a number of Hawza Ilmiyya students (Islamic seminary students) and Religious Scholars throughout the country in the Imam Khomeini Hussainiyah on July 12, 2023.
Ayatollah Khamenei said: "The capacity of propagation in this country is so massive and dense that even if we work several times as much as we do, I don't think this capacity will be filled.
Propagation is ranked first
Leader of the Islamic Revolution said: "We need propagation, we need preaching, we also need research. Today, the common view in seminaries is that preaching is in the second place, the first place is other things, scientific degrees, and some other matters; The second level is propagation and we must pass this view; propagation is ranked first.
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution went on to say: Today, the level of public awareness of young and all walks of life cannot be compared with the past. Almost all my life, my missionary life of around sixty years, was mostly spent with young people. That day, the children's thoughts were good, and the young people were thoughtful, but it was not comparable to today. The level of thinking has increased."
Ayatollah Khamenei stated: In addition to the fact that the level of thinking of our youth, our teenagers, and our audience has increased, there is also a problem, and that is that in this chaotic market of different voices in the virtual space and the plurality of media that exists, one voice is isolated and that voice is the transmission of generational and family knowledge. Fathers and mothers taught many things to their children. In this chaos of media pluralism, this voice has weakened.
The Leader emphasized: Propagation is not just removing doubts, it is not a defensive position. This work is necessary. But that's not all. The enemy has intellectual bases, he should be undermined. It is necessary to promote offensively.
Ayatollah Khamenei stated: It is necessary to know the scene, that is, you must know whose side you are on when you are faced with a lot of doubts in the minds of young people, whose side are we on?
