Seyyed Hassan Khomeini made remarks during a recently held gathering of foreign students from Tehran medical university, who visited Imam Khomeini’s holy mausoleum.
The world Muslim scholar went onto say that the holy book of Quran has described great divine virtues of the Jesus Christ and witnessed purity of the holy Merry, Jesus moths.
The Christ has also held a great status in Persian literature and been hailed by Iranian poets for spreading love and eradicating hatred, he added.
Iran has hosted thousands of foreign students and they have been graduated from the Iranian universities in various academic fields since the victory of Islamic Revolution
Imam once said in a shistoric message which was released on Christmas occasion as following:
The Almighty God’s greetings and salutations to the Holy Christ, son of Mary, the Spirit of God, and the honorable prophet who resuscitated the dead and awakened the drowsy! Greetings and salutations of the Great God to his dignified mother, Virgin Mary and virtuous saintly woman, who, through the divine breath, offered such a great son to those who were thirsty for divine mercy! Greetings to the clerics, priests and monks who, through the teachings of Jesus Christ call the rebellious souls to peace! Greetings to the free nation of Christ, who enjoy the divine teachings of Christ, the Spirit of God.
Imam warned the Christian leaders to stop their Western leaders by siding the Shah regime. Imam stressed that the Christian people should support the oppressed Iranian nation, which rose up against the Shah Regime and world arrogance.
Imam Khomeini had also recommended his companions to distribute gifts among Christians in Neauphle-le-Château on the eve of Christmas and had treated kindly his Christian neighbors and showed great respect towards them.
Imam also used to advise Christian clerics to advise some of the heads of powerful countries and denounce their support for a person who has turned his back to the divine teachings. Imam used to stress that the Holy Qur’an has mentioned the name of Holy Christ with magnificence and has purified Holy Mary. It is the duty of the Christian nation to pay their debt to the Muslim nation. Peace [be with you].
