There are hundreds of streets, alleys, roads, highways, squares, mosques, schools, universities, institutions, and organizations named after the honorable martyrs of Islam in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
These beautiful, but heartbreaking verses encapsulate the feelings of those who are left behind to enjoy the sweetness of victory, yet without those who have fought for it with their blood.
What does the remembrance of the martyrs of Islam bring to us? The Leader of the Muslim Ummah, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei explains.
We are the nation of martyrdom.
We are the nation of Imam Husayn (A).
