“Based on the Quran and religious orders, begging is forbidden. What kind of country is this? The king begs; the people beg; the prime minister begs; students beg,” Ayatollah Taleqani says.

The Ayatollah’s sermon has inspired people to stand against the king of Iran. He is now organizing mass protests. In his speeches, he uses impressive words and encourages the nation to fight and rebel against the regime and the king.
