The Friday Prayer Leader of Urmia, the representative of the Supreme Leader in West Azerbaijan, emphasized the necessity of strengthening the culture of resistance and the preservation of religious and national identity in his recent remarks. He stated that these components should be strengthened in society alongside maintaining the country's defensive capabilities so that Islamic Iran can resist various challenges.

Culture of Resistance Against Threats

The Friday Prayer Leader of Urmia continued: "The culture of resistance must be institutionalized as a fundamental principle in society so that future generations become familiar with this culture and can stand against internal and external threats. We must educate our youth to preserve their religious and national identity and to resist any kind of sanctions."

The Importance of Religious and National Identity

He also referred to the importance of religious and national identity in people's lives and added: "Religious and national identity is one of the main pillars of national unity and cohesion. If we do not respect and strengthen our identity, we may face serious crises and challenges in the future. Therefore, it is essential for everyone to strive to preserve this identity."

The Friday Prayer Leader of Urmia emphasized the need for cooperation among all institutions and organizations to strengthen the culture of resistance, stating: "All agencies must act in coordination in this regard and design and implement educational and cultural programs aligned with these goals. This not only helps strengthen national morale but also increases security and stability in the country."

Emphasis on Unity and Solidarity

He also stressed the importance of unity and solidarity among the people, saying: "In the current situation where the country is facing many challenges, we need unity and solidarity more than ever. Only in the shadow of this solidarity can we stand against threats and contribute to the development and progress of the country."

The Friday Prayer Leader of Urmia concluded by noting that "people must pay special attention to the issue of the culture of resistance, and everyone must fulfill their duties in this regard so that we can ultimately achieve a resilient and sustainable society." These remarks come at a time when Iran has faced significant economic and political pressures in recent years, and strengthening the culture of resistance is recognized as one of the fundamental strategies to confront these challenges.
