In a meeting with members of Union of Islamic Associations of Iranian Students based in European states to mark its 40th anniversary of its establishment, the Supreme Leader said that a blueprint for lifestyle has been introduced for the Muslims across the globe thanks to blessings of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. Ayatollah Khamenei said that the true path of Islam calls for insight and wisdom to distinguish between the right and wrong and move in the right direction which of course stands vis-a-vis the wrong as a heavy responsibility. "The contemporary world is full of great challenges for the humanity. Every Muslim is expected to propagate Islam and invite fellow believers to undertake heavy responsibility to do so. They should refrain from any deviation, backwardness, narrow mindedness and misinterpretation," the Supreme Leader said. Ayatollah Khamenei said that organized attempts were made before the Islamic Revolution to misrepresent religion as being in conflict with science and human progress but fortunately the Islamic associations of the university students managed to deal with such a perception. The Supreme Leader said that going along with progress in science and technology has no contradiction with religious values. "Under the Islamic lifestyle, acquisition of modern science and moving in direction of progress in different aspects of life is considered as a value," the Supreme Leader said. Ayatollah Khamenei, in the meantime, honored memory of the late Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, the founder of Union of the Islamic Associations of Students in the European states, who was martyred in terrorist bomb blast at the headquarters of the Islamic Republic Party in 1981.
