Today, if the powerful ones and propaganda blatherers write out against you and the Islamic Republic, deliver speech or concoct plots, they cannot hide the truth. You are right, as the Doyen of Martyrs was right. He fought with a small number of fighters. Although he achieved martyrdom and his children were martyred, he kept Islam alive and disgraced Yazīd and Umayyads. You are the partisans of that Imām. In great wars such as the battle in Ābādān, Chazabeh Defile, Bostān and the like, you worked miracles. It was a miracle. A small population with meager instruments but great faith created this miracle.
Sahifeh-ye-Imam, V 16, P 80-81
