The little serpent has left, and the great serpent has come.

Who is against democracy? Is it the one who calls for peaceful resistance, or the one who bombs people, sheds their blood and leads them away from the leaders under feeble and dirty pretexts?

- Muqtada al Sadr

I have said it many times: the policy of exclusion and the policy of marginalization must end in Iraq.

- Muqtada al Sadr

I am a part of the political process whether the multinational forces are present or not. Politics is serving the people, not chairs and positions.

- Muqtada al Sadr

We will not stop resisting the occupation until liberation or martyrdom.

- Muqtada al Sadr

We do not kill an Iraqi.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Our rejection of the occupier at heart is resistance.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Open the way before the new government to prove that it is for serving the people.

- Muqtada al Sadr

I repeat my demand that the occupier leave the land of our beloved Iraq unconditionally, without retaining bases or signing agreements.

- Muqtada al Sadr

The main reason for the armed resistance is the American military presence.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Anyone who seeks to be involved in politics should join hands with America.

- Muqtada al Sadr

I wish to be a martyr, and I don't fear death.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Do not betray the people.

- Muqtada al Sadr

When the Americans advance, we harass and retreat, fire from new positions and then retreat again. If the attacking force is too big, we call for support.

- Muqtada al Sadr

America has shown its evil intentions, and the proud Iraqi people cannot accept it. They must defend their rights by any means they see fit.

- Muqtada al Sadr

The small Satan left and the great Satan came.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Everything that happens is determined by God.

- Muqtada al Sadr

Go forth from our holy land and go back to your families who are waiting for you impatiently, that you and we, as well, lead a peaceful life together.

- Muqtada al Sadr

I fear only God, all praises to Him.

- Muqtada al Sadr

What if the invasion forces will not leave our lands? What if the U.S. forces and others stay in our beloved lands? What if their companies and embassy headquarters will continue to exist with the American flags hoisted on them? Will you be silent? Will you overlook this?
