[00:00:52] I became acquainted with Shahid Larijani at Sharif [00:00:55] Industrial University. [00:00:57] At that time, I was a teacher there. Dr. Larijani [00:01:01] was a mathematics student. Then it led to [00:01:05] the year 1978, which was the year of the revolution. [00:01:09] And Mr. Larijani was [00:01:12] among the devoted students. [00:01:15] بودند. [00:01:24] Greetings, greetings to Khomeini. Since [00:01:27] the beginning of the revolution, he was present [00:01:30] in the media and in other places. [00:01:33] Blessings upon Muhammad. [00:01:37] Say your [00:01:40] own Ali Muhammad. [00:01:43] I send greetings and regards to the [00:01:47] wise leader of the Islamic Revolution [00:01:49] and dear colleagues. [00:01:53] We cherish the blessed and auspicious arrival of the dear leader [00:01:57] of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khamenei, [00:02:00] to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting. You have honored [00:02:04] us and made us [00:02:08] proud. It was the first year [00:02:11] that television decided to produce a pre-dawn program. Until that year, radio had programs. In [00:02:15] 1996, I became [00:02:17] the first producer of the first pre-dawn program [00:02:21] of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting. A 22-year-old young man [00:02:25] told a 23-year-old young man [00:02:28] who had entered television [00:02:31] three years ago, "You are the producer of this work." If [00:02:35] today the discussion [00:02:38] is about the slogan of youthfulness or the importance of youthfulness, Dr. [00:02:42] Larijani acted on youthfulness 30 years ago. [00:02:46] Then he went to [00:02:48] the Ministry of Guidance, and then the Supreme [00:02:51] National Security Council, and then he [00:02:55] became the Speaker of Parliament, and I [00:02:58] also became a representative after the seventh parliament. [00:03:02] هفتم [00:03:09] Between you and me, I don't know of anyone who, when he came to parliament, [00:03:13] went to work as an employee of the Ministry of Oil. [00:03:16] We were all so fond of him that our [00:03:20] relationship was far beyond a [00:03:23] father-son relationship. [00:03:26] We were truly captivated by him. [00:03:30] In terms of ethics, in terms of intellectual [00:03:33] system, in terms of spirituality, in terms [00:03:36] of that intelligence, initiative, and [00:03:39] political piety that existed, his personality was truly [00:03:43] our dear friend and brother, our [00:03:46] fellow thinker, our comrade. They have good values. [00:03:49] He had a strange reliance on God. [00:03:53] We truly saw this in the practical trials [00:03:56] on the scene. That is, there was truly a [00:04:00] tranquility and calmness in him. He [00:04:03] often wrote "servant of God" under his signature [00:04:06] instead of, for example, "president of so-and-so." He would write "servant of God" [00:04:09] and sign it. I once asked him, "What [00:04:13] is this? You sign [00:04:17] as servant of God." He said that [00:04:21] all these titles [00:04:23] of king, sultan, minister, lawyer, president, [00:04:27] all of them in the end are only good for [00:04:31] historical archives. They are useless. You review [00:04:35] history, such and such a sultan, such and such a king, such [00:04:38] and such, all have gone into history. If a name has remained, it has [00:04:42] all gone, it has gone. And no matter how much I think, [00:04:46] the only thing that remains [00:04:49] for a human being is that relationship he has with God. [00:04:52] Only that position, that rank, [00:04:56] and that status remain for a person. [00:05:23] Because they were very close, Dr. also said, [00:05:26] "I dreamt that he hugged me [00:05:30] and wept intensely. We both [00:05:34] wept so intensely that the ground beneath our feet turned to mud." [00:05:37] This is how sleep takes over you. And he kept telling me, [00:05:41] "Ali, you must continue my path. You must [00:05:44] carry on this path." He kept saying, "I don't understand. I am [00:05:48] in the most isolated state possible right now. What should [00:05:52] I do?" This dream, this dream two more times, six, seven [00:05:56] times. This dream kept repeating itself. And [00:05:59] they would refer to this dream. They would say, "I have a mission." [00:06:03] دارم. [00:06:13] The role of Dr. Larijani on [00:06:17] the ninth of Esfand and the day [00:06:21] after that day was important because [00:06:25] on that day a significant [00:06:28] spiritual blow [00:06:31] had been dealt to the entire nation and especially [00:06:34] the communications between officials were cut off. [00:06:37] From the very first hour [00:06:40] that it became known that the Agha had been martyred, [00:06:44] Mr. Larijani and one or two [00:06:47] other people, despite the fact that [00:06:51] they were at risk of being martyred themselves at any moment, [00:06:54] they decided that [00:06:56] immediately the Expediency Discernment Council [00:07:00] and that jurist of the Guardian Council [00:07:04] should elect Mr. Araqi for the Leadership Council. [00:07:07] And [00:07:09] on Saturday night, [00:07:13] that is, it was still early evening after Iftar, [00:07:16] it was announced that the Leadership Council [00:07:19] with the presence of the President [00:07:22] and the jurist of the Guardian Council and the Head of the Judiciary [00:07:25] had been formed. That means sometimes [00:07:29] people in their lives make one or two [00:07:32] decisions that are as effective as someone [00:07:36] else's entire life. On that [00:07:39] ninth and tenth day, Mr. Larijani's [00:07:43] presence was very effective. He practically became [00:07:46] the first figure of the country in confronting [00:07:50] the enemy. Truly, every tweet he [00:07:54] sent shook society and, in my opinion, sent [00:07:57] shivers down the enemy's spine. [00:08:01] We were not and are not [00:08:04] seeking war, [00:08:06] but if war is imposed on us, abandon them. These [00:08:10] are murderers who have no [00:08:25] In the end, after the martyrdom of His Holiness, I think he really did not want a [00:08:28] world without His Holiness. I dreamt that [00:08:32] I visited Hazrat Masoumeh (peace be upon her) and then [00:08:36] I went to the grave of my late father. [00:08:39] There, I saw that Agha Jan's grave was open. In the dream, [00:08:43] I was happy to go and look at Agha Jan's face, but suddenly I found myself on [00:08:47] Dr. Larijani's grave, for example. This made me [00:08:50] feel that martyrdom [00:08:51] was possible. [00:08:58] When he went to security, I asked, "If something happens, [00:09:02] what is our duty? What should we do?" [00:09:05] He said, "I don't want to cause trouble [00:09:08] for you all." Honestly, in these 48 [00:09:12] years, he never caused me trouble once. He said, "I don't want to cause [00:09:16] trouble for you all, but I would be very [00:09:19] happy if I were buried in the share of Hazrat Amir, and I would like it [00:09:23] if it wasn't possible and there was war and so on, [00:09:27] take me to Najaf. If not, take me to [00:09:30] Qom. And if that's also not possible, then Tehran wherever [00:09:34] you want." [00:17:37] and the village of Abu Ishaq, in defense of the homeland, [00:17:41] the revolution, and the security of the people, have offered [00:17:44] many martyrs. One of these [00:17:47] martyrs is the security martyr, Staff Sergeant [00:17:50] Ali Saeedi. Martyr Ali [00:17:53] Saeedi was born on the fifteenth [00:17:56] of Farvardin in [00:17:59] 1990, in the village of Abu Ishaq, into a religious and [00:18:02] revolutionary family. His father [00:18:06] was a retired cultural figure and a veteran of the [00:18:10] 8-year Sacred Defense. From childhood, Ali [00:18:13] was deeply devoted to the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) and [00:18:16] actively participated with his family [00:18:20] in religious ceremonies and Muharram mourning rituals. [00:18:23] During his studies [00:18:26] in school, so to speak, [00:18:30] he helped in agricultural work, [00:18:32] in construction work, and in tasks we had at home. [00:18:36] داشتیم به [00:18:45] We called him Ali. Since Ali and I had a small age difference, [00:18:49] we were playmates since childhood. We were friends [00:18:52] and grew up together. He used to take me to the religious gatherings. [00:18:56] When it was Ramadan, [00:19:00] we would go together to the nights of Qadr and stay until morning. [00:19:03] After receiving his high school diploma and completing his military service, [00:19:08] with a desire to serve in the Islamic Republic system, [00:19:12] he joined the Police Command and, due to [00:19:15] his physical fitness and great interest in [00:19:18] sports, he began serving in the Special Unit [00:19:22] of Tehran. Our dear one had a great [00:19:26] interest in sports during high school. [00:19:28] He was part of the volleyball team in middle and high school [00:19:32] and was very passionate about it. [00:19:35] They also formed a special team. Until [00:19:39] before his martyrdom, he had a team, [00:19:43] their volleyball team from Isfahan province, [00:19:46] from Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, participated in several teams [00:19:50] here in Falard county, and their team [00:19:53] became champions. I really wanted my children to be [00:19:57] in the system. I really wanted them to serve [00:20:01] our country. My children, since the [00:20:05] war, the Iran-Iraq [00:20:08] war, [00:20:11] I used to see many mothers of martyrs and I had a special [00:20:14] devotion to them. I really wanted, I said, "If [00:20:18] I had 10 children in my belly," I was a girl, I was a child, I said, [00:20:22] "Oh God, if you want to give me children, I want [00:20:26] all of them to be martyred in the way of God. Lucky are those who are mothers of martyrs." When we [00:20:29] grew up, he joined the police force, [00:20:33] and I went to university. [00:20:36] Then. When I saw him in society, I saw his behavior in [00:20:40] the family, I felt [00:20:44] that one day he would be martyred. From the age of 10 or 13, [00:20:48] this was with me. The thought was in my head. [00:20:52] In 2012, [00:20:54] he got married and had two daughters named [00:20:58] Anita and Rasta. In 2012-2013, [00:21:01] I was working [00:21:05] at Mal Khalifeh Clinic, and one day [00:21:08] Agha Ali came there with his sister to see a doctor for [00:21:12] a cold. After that, they saw [00:21:15] me there, and that was the beginning of our acquaintance. [00:21:19] We had a completely traditional courtship and then [00:21:22] a completely traditional marriage. He was very family-loving [00:21:25] and kind. He was truly devoted to his family. [00:21:29] That is, when he came home from work, even though he was [00:21:33] very tired from work, [00:21:36] he would definitely play with the children and entertain them so that [00:21:40] they wouldn't make noise and disturb [00:22:20] We would put something in the grass and [00:22:24] then hit it with a slipper to make it go [00:22:26] over and hit the [00:22:30] mud. Then we would open this [00:22:33] door for Dad. I miss him. [00:22:36] For example, sometimes I tell [00:22:39] Hajji that I cry with him. [00:22:42] These things [00:22:45] from the family caused him to change his service [00:22:49] branch so that he could serve near [00:22:53] his family. Therefore, he was first transferred to the Sadat [00:22:57] Hosseini outpost in Izeh county and then [00:23:00] to the outpost near his home in Falard [00:23:03] county. He had good morals. [00:23:07] He was known for his good morals. To the extent that his friends and acquaintances [00:23:11] always said so. They always spoke well of his character. [00:23:15] He was both a champion and an athlete. He was also [00:23:18] truly humble. In all the missions he participated in, he was always [00:23:22] active and very brave. He was a very kind and [00:23:25] pleasant person in the police station, [00:23:29] and in carrying out missions, he truly acted bravely, powerfully, and [00:23:33] ethically. Considering that his wife was also an employee, [00:23:36] his children were with him. During his wife's work [00:23:40] shift, whenever we called, he would answer and also [00:23:43] come. Whenever he had a shift, he definitely had to say, "I [00:23:46] have a shift tonight. I want to go to the mourning ceremony." He would call, [00:23:50] for example, one of the guys and say, "Can you cover my shift for an hour so I can [00:23:54] go to the mourning ceremony for Imam Hussein, the martyr?" [00:23:57] He would intervene in some village disputes [00:24:01] and family disputes. He would tell me, "Dad, let's go. So-and-so [00:24:05] had a fight with so-and-so. Let's go reconcile them." [00:24:08] He was a peacemaker and maintained family ties. [00:24:11] He was truly popular among the people. [00:24:14] He was pleasant, humorous, honest, and [00:24:17] committed. A man who very quickly found a place in the hearts [00:24:20] of his people. Many times in difficult and dangerous [00:24:24] missions to preserve the security and peace [00:24:28] of the people, he stepped onto the field and was [00:24:31] also wounded in several missions. [00:24:35] Most of the time, Ali would gather us in this house. He would call [00:24:39] and say, "My wife has a shift, Hussein. Let's go [00:24:42] upstairs." I said, "Well, my wife has also prepared dinner. Let's [00:24:46] eat here." He said, "Grab your dinner and let's go there with my father and mother." [00:24:50] His interaction with his father and mother was very good [00:24:53] and humble. He was a friend to them. [00:24:57] Whatever he had to do, he would definitely call my dad and consult him. [00:25:00] I am proud to be working with colleagues in the police force of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province [00:25:04] who are constantly reciting prayers, [00:25:08] زیارت عاشورا (Ziarat Ashura), and the prayer of Munajat Shakirin, [00:25:12] especially in this Ramadan war, inspired by [00:25:15] Hazrat Abi Abdullah al-Hussein (peace be upon him), with a very high spiritual [00:25:19] spirit. They were bravely and self-sacrificingly present. [00:25:23] Martyr Ali Saeedi was generous. [00:25:26] He would put money in an envelope and tell his father to give [00:25:30] money to the needy and deserving and donate it. He had both courage [00:25:34] and great bravery in defending this [00:25:37] system and Wilayat. To the extent that during his service [00:25:41] in the police force, he was truly wounded three times. Even [00:25:45] with being wounded three times, he still carried out his mission. [00:25:48] He was faithful to his covenant and himself, [00:25:52] and he was martyred on June 6th, 1985. Martyr Ali Saeedi [00:25:56] finally attained the lofty rank of martyrdom [00:25:59] on the sixth of Khordad 2025, [00:26:03] during a mission and conflict with drug traffickers [00:26:06] in Qarah village. In [00:26:09] 1984, there was a plan announced [00:26:12] from the whole province with the presence of commanders [00:26:16] and subordinate forces. [00:26:20] We were implementing the plan ourselves, [00:26:23] personally, with this very patrol car of the police station, and Mr. [00:26:26] Jalil Masir and Sergeant Saeedi were together on [00:26:30] the Qarah axis. Unfortunately, in the encounter with... [00:27:03] This drug. Don't let it [00:27:06] go. I always used to say, "If [00:27:10] my child wasn't like Abul Fazl, if he wasn't like Ali [00:27:13] Akbar, he was a servant of Ali Akbar, a servant of Ali Akbar. [00:27:17] O God, accept him. [00:27:20] O God, I entrusted him to You. You first [00:27:23] entrusted him to me, You gave him as a trust. I have returned Your trust." [00:27:27] After his martyrdom, the martyr's family, [00:27:30] in a valuable act, donated his organs. [00:27:34] According to the program that both the police [00:27:37] and the hours have, [00:27:40] one of our programs is always to honor and visit [00:27:43] the families of martyrs. [00:27:47] We ourselves feel that we need [00:27:49] to be present [00:27:53] in the homes of martyrs. [00:27:56] And when we see the parents and relatives [00:27:59] of martyrs, truly, [00:28:03] one's spirit is uplifted. Thanks to the [00:28:06] blood of these dear martyrs, your [00:28:10] dear son, Shahid Ali [00:28:13] Saeedi, the sacred system of the Islamic [00:28:17] Republic of Iran, [00:28:19] thanks to the blood of these [00:28:21] martyrs, [00:28:24] will, God willing, be proud. [00:28:26] بود. [00:28:29] Martyrs are chosen. [00:29:02] He makes a deal with God. [00:29:06] What can be better than this? [00:29:07] میشه [00:29:15] Welcome, in honor of the pure body of the high-ranking martyr [00:29:19] Ali Saeedi, come on [00:29:22] out. [00:29:23] هیشتی [00:29:30] The pure body of martyr Saeedi, amidst [00:29:34] the widespread presence of people [00:29:36] in his hometown, Abu Ishaq village, rested [00:29:40] beside the other martyrs of this [00:29:43] village, so that his name and memory [00:29:46] may live forever in the history [00:29:49] of this land and in the hearts of its people. [00:30:26] In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Greetings and good morning to [00:30:30] all dear and respected compatriots. [00:30:38] The Minister of Roads and Urban Development, at the meeting to monitor the housing support plan, [00:30:41] emphasized the need to accelerate land allocation among the general managers [00:30:45] of Roads and Urban Development of the provinces. Ms. Sadegh [00:30:48] Tahator considered land with contractors, [00:30:51] with the aim of providing financial resources for housing projects, [00:30:55] as one of the solutions to accelerate housing projects.
