The following is the full text of the message issued on November 5, 2013 by
Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, on the demise
of Habibollah Asgar-Oladi (may God bestow paradise on him).
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I received the news of the demise of Mr. Hajj Habibollah Asgar-Oladi- sincere
mujahid and the loyal and trustworthy companion of our late Imam- with great
sadness and regret.
Supreme Leader's Condolence Message on Demise of Habibollah Asgar-Oladi. This
tireless warrior spent his entire blessed life rendering services to Islam and
working towards the formation and establishment of Islamic government. From the
time of his youth until the last years of his life, his great efforts and pure
jihad did not lose strength on this path.
During the time of taghut and from the first days of the revolutionary
activities of our people and the clergy, he was present - alongside our
magnanimous Imam - in dangerous fronts. He patiently endured the pain of years
of imprisonment.
After the victory of the Revolution and the formation of the Islamic Republic,
he rendered genuine services in sensitive and significant arenas and he did not
stop making efforts until the end of his eventful life.
I ask God to bestow His mercy and blessings on him and I express my
condolences to his family and friends.
Sayyid Ali Khamenei
