Ahmad Khomeini


Sayyid Ahmad Khomeini (Dabiristani: سید احمد خمینی) is a Dabiristani politician, Faqih and the current President of the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan since the 4th of May, 2031. He was first appointed as acting president by his father and Supreme Leader of Dabiristan, Ruhollah Khomeini, but was later also elected as President in the 2032 elections.

Khomeini led a relatively stable early life until he reached his teenage years. He studied in the Qom Seminary where he became a low ranking scholar. He would face 3 arrests during the early parts of his political career. Following the Islamic Revolution, his father appointed him as acting president for the Islamic Republic of Western Dabiristan and later the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan. He helped lead as a general for the Islamic League during the Second Dabiristani Civil War. His military successes in battle against the Islamic Republicans earned him respect amongst the soldiers and the civillian populace. This influence would later allow him to destroy corruption in the army and introduce reforms to it over the course of 2 months. Khomeini would then go on to become the President of the Islamic Federation of the Lafari, a position he still currently holds.

In the 2032 Dabiristani National Elections, Khomeini received 55% of the vote beating the Islamic Republican candidate who received 38%. His successful election would result in his continued presidency.

Early Life and Education


Khomeini was born on the 6th of February, 1987 to Ruhollah Khomeini and Khadija Khomeini. His father played an important role in getting Khomeini into the clergy and later on, politics. Khomeini would lose his father at the age of 14 when Ruhollah Khomeini was exiled to the Natadan Desert. The exile of his father pushed him to pursue politics and he actively protested against the Sultanate whenever the opportunity arose. This led to him being arrested on three different occasions. He was first arrested in 2005 for participating in a violent riot, he was arrested again in 2009 for taking part in another protest and arrested a third time in 2010 for the same reason. Following his last arrest, he would be forced into house arrest temporarily ending his political career.

Ancestry

Khomeini is a "Sayyid" due to his direct decendence from Hussain Ibn-Ali, the grandson of the Islamic Prophet. He is also descended from a prominent clerical family via descendence from his father, Ruhollah Khomeini. These statuses have allowed him to gain a much stronger influence over Dabiristani politics which also helped him to secure himself the Presidential position in the 2032 elections.

Education

Khomeini studied in Al-Hanan Primary School for his primary education. After completing his primary education, he began studying at the Qom Seminary (Hawza). He would study under prominet Ayatollah's and Islamic scholars such as Ayatollah Al-Masood and Shaykh Al-Hasan Ibn-Ayubi. He would complete his studies and eventually become a Mulla for a short period of time. Soon after becoming a Mulla, he would be elevated to the status of Imam returning to Qom as a result. It is around this timeframe that Khomeini would go into house arrest forcing him to discontinue his Islamic studies and also resulting in him losing his position as Imam by decree of Sultan Dabir VII.

Clerical Credentials


Khomeini held the title of "Mulla" for a short period of time following completion of his studies in the Qom Seminary. Not long afterwards, he would be elevated to the rank of Imam at a smaller mosque in Qom. He would work there until he was forced into house arrest in 2010. Sultan Dabir VII would also decree the loss of his title as "Imam" and replaced him with another Imam. This resulted in Khomeini losing his Clerical Credentials for a period of 3 years ending in 2013. Following his release from house arrest, Khomeini would immediately be given the rank of "Imam" again. He would declare himself a low level Hujjat Al-Islam in 2029. Since becoming President of The Islamic Republic of Dabiristan, Khomeini has stopped most of his scholarly activities.

Presidency


Khomeini had been appointed as party chairman of the Islamic League on the 4th of May 2031. This appointment also made him the Acting President of the Islamic Republic of Western Dabiristan when it was formed and later on the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan.

2032 Elections

Khomeini would be elected in as President following the 2032 Elections. As voting is compulsory in Dabiristan, there was a 99.8% voting turnout. Those that did not vote either did so in protest against the candidates or because they simply were not able to vote. Khomeini would achieve 55% of the vote beating his Islamic Republican opposition, Mohammad Tavasoli, who received 38% of the vote.

Tenure

Khomeini would be appointed as Incumbent President following his win in the 2032 Elections on the 7th of June, 2032. Although this is the date he was officially elected as president, Khomeini served 13 months as Acting President prior to the 2032 Elections.

Before the 2032 Dabiristani National Elections

Khomeini served a total of 13 months as President prior to the 2032 Elections. During these months, Khomeini mostly focused on rebuilding the nation after its devastating civil war. His policies included rapid reconstruction of the nations infrastructure following the end of the civil war. Khomeini also introduced new welfare programs, most notably, he introduced the Dabiristan Healthcare Program providing free healthcare for most health related services. By addition, Khomeini would begin cracking down on the remaining political dissidents in the nation further stabilising the nation. These measures helped him to secure popular support from the Dabiristani populace allowing him to win the 2032 Elections.

After the 2032 Dabiristani National Elections

Khomeini would continue to serve as President of the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan following his victory in the 2032 Elections. His rapid reconstruction programs allowed Dabiristan's economy to bounce back allowing Khomeini to further expand his programs. New housing programs and an expanded healthcare system were implemented. The military was rapidly strengthened with a much larger budget than before the 2032 Elections.

The Lafari

Khomeini became the President (Acting) of the Islamic Federation of the Lafari upon its formation. He is still holding this position.

Foreign Policy

Khomeini's foreign policies have resulted in multiple diplomatic successes for the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan since its formation. Most notably, Khomeini is responsible for the formation of the Maham Pact. Going on multiple diplomatic missions across Unistan, he was able to secure ties with the majority of free nations on the continent. By addition, his government formed the Unistani Economic Federation which aims to further increase economic ties in between its member nations.

In January 2033, Khomeini held diplomatic summits with Urattobristan and Savarastan. These summits aimed to increase economic ties, diplomatic ties and military ties. By addition, in the summit with Urattobristan, Khomeini reportedly discussed the partitioning of the Emirate of Al-Harrada with President Nurgamedov. Since the summit, the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan has annexed the majority of Al-Harrada.

Khomeini has resorted to war on multiple occasions to secure Dabiristani influence over the Unistani continent. Khomeini has fought wars against the majority of colonial powers that held colonies or attempted to form colonies on the continent of Unistan. This includes: Altusia, Peatiktist, Estande, and Sicilianzo.

Khomeini's government has forced multiple other nations to diplomatically/peacefully give up their colonies. This includes nations such as Estande when Dabiristan purchased Benedito Valentina and Rostoria when Dabiristan forced them to cede the colony to itself.

Khomeini has denounced both Terreich Und Preussen and the Kampfian Empire on multiple occasions accusing them of colonialism.

Political Views


Khomeini's political views are modeled of that of his father. Khomeini is considered to be a hardliner and staunch conservative in Dabiristani politics. Khomeini is responsible for the theory of Unistani Unity. Although ideas of stronger cooperation between Unistani states had been proposed before, Khomeini was the first to actually implement this theory. This was seen with the formation of the Maham Pact, the Unistani Economic Federation, and overall strengthening of diplomatic, economic and military relations with other nations on the continent. Khomeini is vehemently against colonialism and imperialism and has taken a variety of measures to end it in Unistan. Khomeini also opposes the idea of monarchism and communism stating that they are both immoral ideologies that disregard Islam. He has opposed Westernisation. Khomeini's government is responsible for the reversal of many of the Westernisation programs implemented by the Sultan's of the Sultanate of Dabiristan. Khomeini has also denounced the West on multiple occasions accusing them of having no morals and of exploiting the east for their resources.
