Cultural Problems of the Muslim World and Their Solutions According to Imam Khomeini.

According to Imam Khomeini, the results indicated that the cultural problems of the Muslim world are rooted in spiritual dependence and self destruction against the West. The characteristics of an ideal society from Imam Khomeini are cultural independence, divine law authority, the transforming community to a divine human being, freedom of thought, and pondering Islamic awareness and awakening. To achieve such a society, he seeks a solution to the unity of the Muslim world and the severance of cultural ties with the West.

Desirable contemplation on Divine essence

According to Imam Khomeini, it should be known that what we said about the possibility of contemplation on the Essence, the Names and the Attributes may lead the ignorant to imagine that it is forbidden in accordance with certain riwayat, knowing not that that which is forbidden is to attempt to fathom the quality and depths of the Essence, as is clear from the traditions.’

Imam Khomeini stressed, “I have said it times and again that takeover of the US embassy by Muslim youth and students was a natural reaction to the harm being done to our people by America.”

Imam Khomeini: Keep this unity between clergymen and students as before.
