Imām Khomeini’s Strict Response, to the religious skepticism in the scope of “Setting up a Government in the Occultation Era”

“There was a group who believed “Any government which sets up in the occultation era, is void and against Islam!”

They assumed it refers to “any kind of government”. But those narrations say, “the ones which rise as “Mahdavī government” are void.

They don’t realize or have knowledge about what they say;

They have been infused with saying these words.

These neglected people have been played trick on!

Not existing any government, causes the people to be at each other’s throats,

kill, beat and destroy each other! It’s against Divine verses!

If the government and the system are not in one state for a year, it will become so corrupt that it will not be found! What does the Prophet do? “Any government is invalid in the absence of time” means chaos! That means the universe collapses until Prophet comes to fix it!! We must make it so that the Imam may come.

No more homework now? No more homework for human beings? Or is it his job to invite people to corruption?! So we have to sit down to pray to America and their rage! [Their servants  …] When someone says, “They get us into the game, we have nothing to do; they want to do everything” This must be a witless man!

Yes, we cannot fill the world with justice because He cannot come, but we must provide the ground. [This is in agreement with the Quran]
