The Khordad National Uprising in Iran is observed annually on June 5, commemorating the 1963 protests against Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi's regime, sparked by the arrest of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. This event is also known as the Khordad 15 Revolt and is recognized as the beginning of the Islamic Revolution. The anniversary is a public holiday in Iran, during which families come together to rest and reflect on their national and religious history. Parents often use this time to teach their children about the significance of these events, ensuring the preservation of this historical knowledge for future generations. The uprising marked a pivotal moment in Iranian history, leading to widespread resistance against the Shah's Western-supported government.
