Ahmad Khomeini: The Architect Behind the Scenes of Revolutionary Iran

During the tumultuous years leading up to the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Seyyed Ahmad played a significant, albeit often understated, role in coordinating the clandestine activities and communications of the movement. While his father was in exile, he acted as a vital link, conveying messages, organising logistics, and ensuring the continuity of the revolutionary struggle from within Iran and abroad. His quiet efficiency and unwavering loyalty were instrumental in maintaining cohesion and momentum among the disparate groups working towards the overthrow of the Pahlavi monarchy.
