He described Imam Hossein (AS) as a perfect example of standing on the path of truth and emphasized that the enlightenment of Sayed al-Shuhada (AS) in history and in the world is the result of this standing.

Hojjat al-Islam Navvab pointed out: those who persevere on the path of religion, as it is evidenced by the verses of Quran, have no sadness or grief, because sadness is for those who are on the wrong path.

He stated that benefiting from divine assistance is the second effect and achievement of stamina in the path of truth.
