Hezbollah Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem delivered his televised address on the first anniversary of the Israeli Pager massacre, stressing that the wounded of the Pager stand as pioneers of insight, as the key to hope, and the very embodiment of eternal life in obedience to Almighty Allah.
“O wounded ones, you are the light by which we discern the safety of the path, and you are the life that gives continuity its true heartbeat,” Sheikh Qassem addressed the wounded.
Today, you stand as teachers, educators, and guides of the way, for you have given, and you continue to give, his eminence added.
“You are healing from your wounds and rising above them – and that, in itself, is the greatest victory. You, the wounded, have faced trial and tribulation, and you have triumphed over them.”
“You live in a state of awakening, filled with hope for the future and assured of a safe course ahead. You now move with insight – and insight surpasses mere sight, for it is the illumination of the inner self reflected outward,” Sheikh Qassem said.
Hezbollah the Leader warned the wounded, “The enemy sought to strip you of your strength and remove you from the battlefield, but today you re-enter it with greater power and renewed vitality.”
“You are aligned with the most complete message, the message of Islam, with Mohammad and the family of Mohammad (peace be upon them), with the guardianship, with Imam Khomeini, and with the Leader, Imam Khamenei.”
Your gaze is set upon the banner of Imam Mahdi (may God hasten his reappearance), as you tread the path of the noblest martyrs: the Nation’s Supreme Martyr, Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, the martyred leaders, and all the Mujahideen, Sheikh Qassem added.
You embody the very essence of resistance, a living testimony that echoes among scholars worldwide, Sheikh Qassem said.
“You stand at the loftiest rank — knowing with certainty that ‘Israel’ will fall, for it is built on occupation, injustice, and crime. Yet the resistance will confront it until liberation, treading the path of the two glorious destinies: victory or martyrdom. And in this lies an everlasting triumph,” Sheikh Qassem concluded his address.
