As Salamu Alaikum.
Ustad Syed Ali looks to be absolutely fine and young but compare to his young age to old we see that he is really aging around my late Jadda around 80 to 90 years old. We shall miss this heroic Supreme leader Ayatollah Syed Ali. Amin. May Allah SWT Gives him Hayat in this Duniya.

Ya Ya Khaamnai you faced the most brutal & inhuman restrictions in last three decades and so many countries had very rude & contrversial disagreements, world have become an animal stopping other's food & earnings for their fake being, which does not suit ones believings, world is a coward animal, life & death is not the end of life, assuming the end is a wrong opinion, khaamnai has saved so many things for thirty years, Hadi kazmi.

TO THE AYATOLLAH: You allowed them to have the cellphones, ignorantly ignoring what would occur with the SCAMMERS, WHAT SCAMMERS WERE DOING. WHY?? TAKE THE CELLPHONES!

ليس لديك فهم دقيق للبلد والشعب وآليات اختيار القيادة الإيرانية. لا يقوم نظام الحكم في إيران على شخص واحد. إذا ماتت القيادة الحالية ، سيحل محلها شخص آخر. هذا النظام لا يعتمد على خامنئي أو قاسم سليماني. إنها مدرسة حية للأفكار تثقف الأشخاص الذين تحتاجهم.
