Iran Leader sees signs of hope in path of Islamic Revolution

It is important to be steadfast in this path and not be affected by bottlenecks and difficulties, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said at a gathering attended by university students from all across Iran for the Arbaeen mourning ceremony.

Making efforts in the way to God and also following the route to an Islamic society and civilization are very difficult and have their ups and downs, Ayatollah Khamenei stressed.

The Arbaeen mourning ceremony, falling on November 9 this year in Iran, is one of the largest religious gatherings in the world.

It marks the 40th day after the martyrdom anniversary of the grandson of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), Imam Hussein (AS), the third Imam of Shiite Muslims.
