Steadfastness and resistance against the oppressors and tyrants have a religious and Quranic basis. God Almighty has shown us that resistance in the face of arrogant powers and stubborn forces is one of the most important duties of human beings, and standing up in the face of such oppressors has been His [divine] command. In the Holy Quran, the dignity and authority of believers, as well as overcoming any kind of isolation and failure, are introduced as the fruits of resistance against the tyranny of oppressors. The Islamic Resistance Front is an unwritten coalition among some Islamic countries aligned with the Islamic Revolution of Iran, whose purpose is to fight against the Zionist regime and confront the domination and influence of the West, especially the United States and its allies in the West Asian region.
