Imam Khomeini’s code of ethics is deeply rooted in a long-standing tradition and founded on ethical heritage of the teachers of ethics and Muslim mystics.
Since the time Imam was a regular teacher at religious seminaries up to the time when he was in the center of the political arena, he observed all ethical and moral norms.
Imam led the people’s uprising and established the Islamic Republic system by observing best ethical practices, principles of good governance, rule of law and democratic values.
The recommendations by the late founder of the Islamic Republic and his political messages to the officials and people are remarkable in this regard.
These recommendations and historic messages show profound moral lessons from which we all can learn.
Imam Khomeini throughout all stages of his life keenly scrutinized moral vices and virtues, discussed them wisely, and enumerated the spiritual benefits of observing morality.
