Leader paid visit to Imam Khomeini&#۰۳۹;s holy shrine ahead of revolution anniversary

During his visit to Imam Khomeini&#۳۹;s mausoleum in southern Tehran, he offered prayers and recited verses from the Holy Quran.

Subsequently, he paid respect at the burial ground of martyrs who lost their lives during the popular uprising that led to the revolution or while upholding revolutionary values afterward, at Behesht-e Zahra, Tehran&#۳۹;s main cemetery.

The Leader also paid homage to the grave of martyr Mohammad Amin Samadi (who was recently assassinated during an Israeli strike on Syria) and several other martyrs who helped defeat Daesh during Iran’s fight against the terror group in the ۲۰۱۰s. 

The period from February ۱st (Bahman ۱۲th) to February ۱۱th (Bahman ۲۲nd) of ۱۹۷۷ (۱۳۵۷) is known as the " ۱۰-day Fajr” period. During this time, Imam Khomeini returned to Iran after fifteen years in exile, receiving a historically unprecedented welcome in Tehran.

Subsequently, the Pahlavi regime, which had oppressed the nation for over ۵۰ years, came to an end on February ۲۳rd. Following the success of the revolution, a referendum was held on July ۲۸, ۱۹۷۹, resulting in the approval of the creation of the Islamic Republic by ۹۸.۲% of eligible citizens. 

The beginning of the Fajr period is usually marked by the Leader’s visit to Imam Khomeini&#۳۹;s burial site. People celebrate the historic period in different parts of the country each year.
