My father prayed for the martyrdom of Hajj Qasim and said …


According to IRNA on Saturday, at 1:20 AM on Friday, December 4, 2009, Haj Qassem Soleimani said, “He became the great and glorious commander of heavenly Islam and his pure blood was shed on the ground by the most ruthless human beings.” After the martyrdom of the legendary commander of the Resistance Front, which is still unbelievable two years after the assassination of Sardar at Baghdad airport; News that changed all equations and made the West Asian region forever insecure for the US terrorist regime. Now we are on the second anniversary of the martyrdom of a man who took all Iranians to the streets on the day of his funeral with all political tastes to mark a historic funeral, a farewell to military commanders whose history has never been so popular. In the days leading up to the anniversary of Sardar’s martyrdom, we have read parts of the most important memories and unspoken words of Haj Qasim’s family and comrades. What follows is an interview with Sohrab Soleimani, Haj Qasem’s brother and brother-in-law, who has made some points about their father’s upbringing and Sardar’s strange intentions to Hazrat Zahra (PBUH):

I am Sohrab Soleimani, the younger brother of Haj Qasem Soleimani and the younger brother of the Soleimani family. I came to Kerman from the village in the fifth year of elementary school and went to Haji. I am trained by him and in high school, we served him to the end. During this period, I never separated from Haji, either during the front or after it. Later, when we met him and accompanied him everywhere, I was in Quchan and Zanjan for a while, and then I returned to Kerman, and after that we were together.

We grew up in a family of seven. We were 5 children and two sisters and three brothers. Our father was a religious, revolutionary, well-known and militant person, and before and after the revolution, he managed his life with livestock, agriculture and nomads. Martyr Soleimani and Bandeh’s paternal grandfather lived in Rabar, Kerman. Our family belongs to the Soleimani clan, which is a well-known clan. In fact, we are from the Bakhtiari tribes and we have a relative.

Sardar’s brother says about Sardar’s special lifestyle, he always lived very simply and away from any luxuries, his furniture may be from 20 years ago and people who came to Haj Qasim’s house will confirm this. Even the furniture in the house has been repaired in two stages because he was never willing to change his status and lifestyle at a normal and upward level, he managed his life with the IRGC salary and never had any income outside the IRGC salary and his family. They were satisfied with these conditions.

His house is decorated with pictures of the martyrs and his martyr friends, and in the large room of his house, which is considered as a guest house, there was a family shrine every Friday evening. He treated his family kindly and like a friend.

Sardar intrusive presence in his grandchildren’s kindergarten

My brother loved his children and raised them as a guardian and lover of the Ahl al-Bayt. Kurd should personally go to the children’s school at least twice a year and be informed about his children’s educational status. I even remember a few months before the martyrdom, he went to the kindergarten where his twin grandchildren were present and asked the kindergarten teachers about their condition, and since everyone knows them, this action surprised the kindergarten teachers. شد.

Haj Qasim special respect to parents

Sohrab Soleimani says about his father’s upbringing method: My father never had a suspicious morsel in his life. A forbidden morsel that has its place! My father was a shelter for people in need of the tribe, so that if they could not go somewhere, they would go to my father. A lawful day will make Hajj Qasim Hajj Qasim. My father always wanted one of us to be martyred in the war. This was his wish and he prayed a lot for Haj Qasim to be martyred. “My father used to say: ‘Anyone who cries and strives for Islam has no right to die and his right is to be martyred.’ “I pray that he will be martyred.”

He goes on to talk about the moral characteristics of Haj Qasim: “My brother had a special courage and fearlessness from his adolescence, which made him different from his peers. But he loved his parents and tried not to ignore the situation of his relatives and parents in spite of his busy schedule.

He always visited his parents at the first opportunity and had a special respect for them and believed that one of the reasons that God made his day to serve Islam and the Muslims and the oppressed of the world is the prayer of his parents, a halal food. And it has been their religiosity. I have never seen or heard him say anything about his parents or ignore their wishes, which were mainly to address the plight of the people and the people who refer to them, he always tried to please his parents because he pleased God with their consent. He knew, he even instructed children and relatives to respect their parents. He always kissed his father’s hand and his mother’s foot.

Sardar’s brother says about Haji’s treatment of family members: Haji used to come to the village for two days and visit people who he felt needed to visit. He solved problems. It was in the hearts of the people. They also had a special respect for their parents. It was in the most difficult conditions in the war, whether in Syria or elsewhere. He calls my parents once every two days. Especially after my mother died, she called my father. If he did not call, they would find out that there was a problem and would call us: “Hajj Qasim, why did he not call? “Follow and see where your brother is!”

Sohrab Soleimani says about Sardar’s intentions to Hazrat Zahra (PBUH) as follows: My father was a moral and religious figure. The roots of the beliefs of infancy were rooted in the family, and especially the devotion to Hazrat Zahra (PBUH). My father had a special devotion to Sadat. They had not yet mentioned in the shrine that Haji’s tears and cries were flowing. For as long as I can remember, Haji shrine started from Sarbaz Street. The first was two nights and a small number were present. Beit al-Zahra was prepared on Shahid Rajaei Street, and then it was a home shrine. We had a home prayer for almost a few years. Sometimes we were not there and there were two of them, they would come and pray and leave.

Of course, he had a special prejudice against Samarra and he believed that the guests of Samarra are the guests of Imam al-Zaman (as). Is it possible to go to a house party and not be a landlord? It is not possible. This was said by the pilgrim himself that the guest of Sahib al-Zaman (as) should not be dared. In addition to the presence of the shrine of the Imams (AS) in Atbat, he was prejudiced against this issue.

Sardar Soleimani pays special attention to the peace of the womb

Haj Qasim’s brother’s Hajj Qasim’s special attention to peace, says: “Close relatives living in Tehran used to gather at his house to have lunch together.”

Children were not allowed to use their father’s name and title

Despite the rumors that some are trying to stir up, Hajj Qasim’s children did not use any of their father’s names and titles, says Soleimani: They have followed their father and managed their lives with the care and sensitivity of their father, away from any economic and social margins.

Although they have a freelance job, they never wanted to use their father’s name and title in their daily work, and Haj Qasim did not allow it, because my brother believed that they could solve their problems by trying and getting involved. “And perhaps no one has ever seen or heard of their children using their father’s name or position.”

Sohrab Soleimani says about Haj Qassem’s little daughter Zeinab: For many, Haj Ghasem’s little girl’s eloquence, look and special mastery of Middle East issues is strange. He also accompanied his father on various trips, which is why Haji’s friends knew Ms. Zeinab perfectly.

In fact, Zeinab closely saw her father’s courage and the way he dealt with various issues, both at home and on missions, and this made him more familiar with her father. Is. The correct upbringing, thanks to God, is present in all the children of Hajj Qasim, but they decided that Zainab should follow up on the issues as the representative of the children, but all the children are actively involved in following up on the affairs of the father after his martyrdom.

Encouragement to pray in the style of Haj Qasim

The brother of this Iranian general points out an interesting memory by pointing out that Hajj Qasim cared about the first time prayer and recommended everyone to the first time prayer: “I came to Kerman from the village in 1955 and started the first year of middle school with him I did and lived with Haj Qasim until the end of high school.

During all these years that I was educated by him and my cousin, the martyr Ahmad Soleimani, the most important order of the pilgrim was to perform his duties, especially the first time prayer for me at that age, so he bought me a Westen watch and told me to watch it. I have to set the clock for 5 in the morning, otherwise the clock will break, I would also set the clock for love and wake up for prayer.

After the prayers, I had to review my daily lessons, every Friday we went to visit the relatives who lived in Kerman, and the peace of the womb, which they strongly believed in, was performed. My other brother and I, along with Hajj Qasim, participated in many operations during the time of the Holy Defense, and each of us did our job according to our assigned duty, and he never distinguished between us and other fighters.

Sardar’s special look at Iranian youth
Haji never placed himself in a group or party, his red line was the province and he was strongly prejudiced against Imam Khomeini and Hazrat Agha. He loved all people and did not care what their political tastes and social behavior were. He sacrificed himself for the people and considered serving the oppressed people as worship. In the opportunities that arose, he met with different segments of the people and access to them was easy for everyone, especially the children of the martyrs, who in any case considered themselves obliged to serve them. . »

Sohrab Soleimani says about Hajj Qasim’s special attention to the youth: Usually the community recognizes them as abnormal to gather and have a meeting for them.

Haji believed that these are our children. If they were abnormal, they might have been short of us. They should not think that they do not have access to us. “In a word, his courage and popularness had become a model for many of our teenagers and young people.”

Pay for water and electricity if you use the treasury

Hajj Qasim’s sensitivity to the treasury and the rights of the people is something that his brother says about it: It was strict and I will never forget to allow relatives to use it.

On different days, when we were in one of the places belonging to the IRGC, he would pay all the expenses used, even the expenses for water and electricity used by the family, immediately. It may be hard for people to believe these words, but God knows what I am saying is the same. “The reality of his life was in using the treasury.”

Hajj Qasim loved to become an Arab

He points to two clear red lines of Hajj Qasim: “Haji had two clear red lines, one was governorship and preserving the sanctity of the province and the other was the security of the people, helping the oppressed of the world and preserving the honor of the martyrs’ families. Haji loved martyrdom and cried to achieve this dream. “God knows how much he loved becoming an Arab and wanted to burn in the fire of hatred of the enemies of God’s religion. These are in the heart of his writings for his friends and children.”

This empty space will not be filled …

Sohrab Soleimani says from his brother’s vacancy: “Although Haj Qasim’s body is not among us today, but his love is alive in the hearts of all people, from 5-year-old children to the elderly. He was a soldier of the Islamic world and his country, a true soldier of the province, and still the family, despite waiting for this painful news on every trip from the beginning of the imposed war until his martyrdom, do not believe in Hajj Qasim and are waiting for his return.

The people of Kerman are still waiting to attend Hajj Qasim in Beit Al-Zahra with love for the Imams and the desire to visit Hajj Qasim.

I am sure that Hazrat Agha remembers Hajj Qasim day and night, but my brother achieved his dream and was martyred as he loved and by the most vicious and dirty people of the present age. “Sardar is in the hearts of the people today. His blood has insured the holy system of the Islamic Republic and made the resistance groups more motivated.”
