🇮🇷🇮🇷 — The full statement of the IRGC regarding the election of the new Leade:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

"O you who have believed, obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority among you" (An-Nisa: 59)

O noble and faithful children of the Islamic Iranian people; we offer our congratulations on the election of the General Deputy of Imam Mahdi (may Allah hasten his honorable reappearance), and the Leader and Guardian Jurist (Wali al-Faqih) of the Islamic Revolution and the sacred system of the Islamic Republic of Iran by the Assembly of Leadership Experts. This follows the martyrdom of the second wise Leader of the Islamic Revolution, His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei (may Allah have mercy on him), who led the Revolution and the Islamic system for 37 years with wisdom, strength, and integrity, guiding them through difficult historical turning points. We also thank God Almighty for the blessing of the Great Wilayah.

We congratulate the election of the jurist who meets all conditions, the young thinker, and the most knowledgeable in political and social issues, His Eminence Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei, and we declare our levels of respect, loyalty, and adherence to the elect of the Assembly of Leadership Experts.

This selection represents a new sunrise and the beginning of a new phase in the Revolution and the Islamic Republic, which has made the painful sunset of the great leader, His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei, bearable for the Iranian people and the Islamic nation.

The election of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution by a decisive majority of the experts of jurisprudence, with sufficient precision and sobriety and under the current complex circumstances, has proven to everyone that the path of the Islamic system does not stop, and that the Revolution and the Islamic system are not linked to a single person.

Certainly, the Guardian Jurist of this era, and the builder of the monotheistic society, will lead the country and the Revolution through difficult turning points toward the lofty goals of the sacred Islamic system through a growing and advanced administration.

The Revolutionary Guard, as a soldier and a powerful arm of the Wilayah, and in support of the choice of the esteemed Assembly of Leadership Experts, stands ready for complete obedience and the sacrifice of lives for the divine commands of the Guardian Jurist of this era, His Eminence Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei, and to preserve the values of the Islamic Revolution and protect the precious legacy of the two Imams of the Revolution: His Eminence Imam Khomeini (may God’s pleasure be upon him) and Imam Khamenei (may God’s mercy be upon him).

It is essential in this sensitive historical stage that all segments of society and those protective of Islamic Iran keep the divine testament of His Eminence Imam Khomeini (may God’s pleasure be upon him)—which says: "Support the Wilayat al-Faqih so that no harm may befall your country"—before their eyes and hearts, and to step with their majestic and epic presence in defense of the Wilayat al-Faqih, the system, and the Islamic Revolution, on the path of completing the victories and triumphs of Islamic Iran over all bloodthirsty oppressors, dictatorships, monarchies, and Zionists, until the achievement of the modern Islamic civilization and the appearance of the sun of the Great Wilayah.
