00:00Forty days have passed since Lebanon lost a leader, the Ummah lost a voice, and the
00:06oppressed lost a defender.
00:09On this solemn day, we honor not just a man, but a legacy carved in resilience, and a heart
00:16that beat fiercely for justice and sovereignty.
00:20FIGURES IN HISTORY
00:25Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah was more than Hezbollah's Secretary General.
00:29He was the voice of the downtrodden, the shield of the defenseless, and the leader who stood
00:35unshaken in the face of arrogance.
00:38Born in Beirut's Qarantina neighborhood on the 31st of August 1960, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah
00:44grew up in one of Beirut's most deprived neighborhoods, where he would one day rise to challenge the
00:50might of the world's most powerful countries and armies.
00:53In late 1967, Sayyid Nasrallah enrolled in their religious seminary in Najaf, Iraq, where
00:58Ayatollah Sayyid Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr asked Sayyid Abbas al-Musawi to mentor him before
01:04continuing his studies and teaching of Islamic studies at Imam al-Muntadhar Seminary in Lebanon.
01:10They saw in him what the world would soon witness, a leader of profound courage and integrity.
01:17When Israel assassinated Sayyid Abbas, Sayyid Hassan was elected as Hezbollah's Secretary
01:21General, carrying the torch of the resistance with unwavering resolve.
01:27Under his leadership, the resistance shattered the myth of Israel's invincibility.
01:32It heroically confronted the Israeli occupation forces during the July 1993 Seven-Day War,
01:38the April 1996 aggression, and then in May 2000, achieving what many believed was impossible.
01:46Israel was driven out of southern Lebanon, liberating most of Lebanon's territories.
01:51In Sayyid Hassan's victory speech, he described Israel as weaker than a spider's web, a phrase
01:57that still haunts the occupation and its Prime Minister Netanyahu, even after his martyrdom.
02:04In 2006, when the Israeli war machine came crashing down upon Lebanon, Sayyid Hassan
02:09responded defiantly.
02:11Now, in the middle of the sea, he told his people, as flames engulfed an Israeli warship.
02:18Look at the warship that has attacked Beirut while it burns and sinks before your very
02:22eyes, marking one of the highlights of Hezbollah's march.
02:26A moment subconsciously associated with the war was left forever engraved in the minds
02:31of the Lebanese, and most importantly, in the minds of the country's enemies.
02:36For Sayyid Hassan, resistance was not just a strategy in victories, it was sacrifice.
02:42His son, Sayyid Hadi, ascended to martyrdom in the fight for liberation against the Israeli
02:47occupation in 1997.
02:50And despite his grief, Sayyid Hassan continued on the path of resistance, embracing the call
02:55of far from us is humiliation.
02:59In 2012, Hezbollah fought the Takfiri terrorist threat that aimed at taking over Syria and
03:04was advancing to Lebanon, and it liberated the border area in 2017 during what came to
03:10be known as the Second Liberation.
03:13Now, as Lebanon marks 40 days since his martyrdom, we see Sayyid Hassan's spirit reflected in
03:21the faces of his people.
03:23His final act, the ultimate sacrifice, came as he defended Lebanon, Gaza, and all oppressed
03:31people from Israel's barbaric aggression.
03:34In those final days, as his voice rang out in solidarity with Palestine, he became a
03:40martyr on the path to al-Quds, a leader who did not just speak of sacrifice, but who embodied
03:47it even in his last breath.
03:50Sayyid Hassan, the leader of the Ummah's martyrs, though now gone, his legacy breathes in the
03:56land he defended, in the people he cherished, and in the hearts of those who carry his mission
04:02forward.
