Iraqi Islamic Supreme Council spokesperson: Imam Khomeini was a political thinker

Pars Today – The spokesperson for Iraq’s Islamic Supreme Council stated that the great Founder of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini (God's mercy upon him) was not only a religious authority but also a political thinker who transformed jurisprudence from a personal guide for individual Muslims into a comprehensive framework.

Ali Fazel al-Dafa’i said on Wednesday that Imam Khomeini Khomeini (God's mercy upon him) repeatedly called for strengthening Islamic unity—a stance that gave the Islamic Revolution of Iran a trans-sectarian appeal.

He added that the Revolution raised the slogans of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel,” and forcefully resisted the occupying Zionist regime. The Revolution, he noted, had a profound impact on Sunni Muslims as well, with movements such as Islamic Jihad and Hamas in Palestine directly influenced by its discourse. / Mehr news agency
