The Supreme Leader's Commendation for the Book "Red Squares"

In the Name of God
It is written in a very sweet and engaging way The traces of Mr. Hossein Yekta’s negotiations are clearly evident in it. The delicate nuances, born from a refined and subtle talent, which permeate the entire book, could either be attributed to the author’s skillful writing or the eloquent embellishments of the narrator’s storytelling. The standout feature of the book is its portrayal of the martyrs and the depiction of their divine presence and state before martyrdom, which has been truly well-captured. This aspect of the book emphasizes the spiritual and ethereal qualities of the martyrs, offering a profound reflection on their sacrifice and eternal legacy. The narrator’s deep reverence for the late Haj Mirza Ali Ahmad Mirjani was also of particular interest to me. I knew the late Haj Mirza Ali Ahmad Mirjani for about sixty years, recognizing him for his knowledge, piety, and asceticism. He also showed me great kindness. This book was apparently unveiled just a few days ago. It was sent to me a while ago, and I have thoroughly read it.
