In the Name of Allah the Merciful, the Compassionate

And Allah made it not except as [a sign of] good tidings for you and to reassure your hearts thereby. And victory is not but from Allah. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and the Wise - Surat Āl- Imran (126)

Allah Almighty has spoken the truth

To the most honorable from the crowds of our patient proud people.

To the martyrs who sacrificed their pure blood to give the life meaning and hope

To the Supreme Religious Authority in the holy city of Najaf

To the diehards in Iraq's valiant army and all the heroic security formations.

To the patriotic volunteers who answered the Supreme Religious Authority’s Fatwa to defend their homeland and the holy places.

To the heroes of the Peshmerga Forces and the sons of the authentic Arab clans.

The hour of victory has come, and the state of superstition has fallen, and the lean years that have decimated the tillage and offspring in the beloved lands of Nineveh have ended, and the blood of the martyrs rose from the insides of this patient land to write in the proud sky “congratulations on your victory, children of Iraq”.

You have proved today with your victory over the forces of evil, atonement and darkness, that the unity of your ranks, the composure of yourselves and your dreams for this eternal homeland, is stronger than anyone who wants to detract from the honor of this beloved land, and that the civilization of Iraq is stronger than anyone who desperately tries to beat the wedge of division between the children of the same nation, this victory will recalculate everyone who wants to define himself at the expense of Iraq, where everyone in the world knows that the soil of this land, its water, its palms, its monuments and its people will stand as one to repel any dark thoughts that intends to sow its malicious seeds in it, as they have stood this historic stand before that we are celebrating its greatness now.

Honorable sons of our proud Iraq, we celebrate this victory, as it is our duty to thank the wise Supreme Religious Authority that Iraq has established and found it competent and immune as a fortresses, offering gratitude to the pure blood of our heroic martyrs who have irrigated the land of Iraq from the far north to the far south, we must thank those heroes in our armed forces in all its formations, and the unknown soldiers who supported their army with their sincere words, and free media. We cannot fail to offer the greatest gratitude to all those who stood by Iraq in this fierce war from allied forces to friendly countries and, last but not least, a word of thanks the size of this country to all the patriots in the humanitarian campaigns and the men close to Allah in the Husseini Mawkib (Shiite rituals), who have continued to provide consistent support in all its forms to our displaced families and heroes on the front lines of combat.

This historic moment obliges all of us to keep our ranks united, our flag high, and to remain loyal to this beloved country as we consider the pure blood of the martyrs a unified logo for us. We are able to rebuild what was destroyed by that cowardly terrorist organization, and to maintain this victory by working to sow stability, tranquility and safety throughout this country.

Allah is the arbiter of success.
