Imam always wanted the artists, poets, scholars and officials to keep hope among the nation alive in all thin or thick times.
Sadiq Ahangran had been a famous spiritual reciter who kept the morale of the Iranian high by reciting religious texts and poetry high at forefronts during the imposed war.
And sometime those spiritual ceremonies were also broadcast on the national TV.
Imam sent a message through his son Seyyed Ahmad Khomeini to Ahangran to recite phrases which are reminder of the Iranian and Islamic grandeur and dignity.
