Vicious US, Israeli schemes will eventually come to end

Sheikh Naim Qassem made the remarks in a Wednesday written message on the anniversary of the formation of the Basij volunteer forces.

“Your path is the path of Islam, and your honor is elevated through piety and devotion. Your success lies in remaining utterly faithful and grasping truth,” the message read.

He added that adherence to Velayat (Guardianship [of the Islamic Jurist]) serves as the rope of salvation, calling for full allegiance to the guidelines of the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini.

The Hezbollah chief also underscored that victory manifests in two ways: Victory within one's heart and triumph over the enemy. Those who stand firm in their faith will inevitably succeed, even if achieving it requires great patience.

“No matter how severe the crises would turn out to be, a resolution will eventually emerge. The vicious acts of aggression by the Zionist regime and the United States will ultimately come to an end,” Sheikh Qassem stated.

He urged Basij members to demonstrate perseverance, emphasizing that steadfastness brings forth honor and dignity – qualities that he characterized as inherent to God, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and believers.

Basij is a military volunteer force established in 1979 at the order of Imam Khomeini. It consists of often young Iranians, who have volunteered with a strong sense of fidelity to both the Islamic system and religious beliefs.
