Satan, means defending holly Qods and Palestinian oppressed nation in
the land of prophets, means defense against any occupation in
Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan and etc., means displaying the frequent
oppressions in Guantanamo and Abu Ghuraib, the secret and terrifying
prisons of Capitalist world, means defending humans throughout the
earth.

spiritual values, means an everlasting perseverance, endurance, jihad,
self- sacrifice and martyrdom, means persistence on piety, belief and
good deed, means persistence on maintaining the path of prophets and
