On 22 June , a few days after security forces broke up one of the biggest election protests , Mesbah-Yazdi " addressed a gathering " of Revolutionary Guards and told them : " Do not be worried about the events and earthquakes that have occurred . Know that God created this world as a test , ... The supreme leader holds a great many of the blessings God has given us and at a time of such uncertainties our eyes must turn to him . " Mesbah Yazdi believed that the educational system of hawza should be changed and his proposal was approved by Seyyed Hossein Borujerdi , so he and Mohammad Beheshti establish the Haghani School ( also Haqqani ) in Qom to train the future cadres of Iran . Mesbah-Yazdi has been described as close to Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti , Khomeini 's first designated heir who was assassinated in Hafte Tir bombing in 1981 ( despite being considered a moderate ) , and is ( or was ) a member of the school 's board of directors . The Haghani School is very influential and has been described as " a kind of Ecole Nationale d'Administration for the Islamic Republic " whose alumni " form the backbone of the clerical management class that runs Iran 's key political and security institutions . " Mesbah-Yazdi is the author of many books on fiqh , Quran exegesis , divinity and general issues of Islam . His " Amuzesh-e Falsafeh " is used widely in the philosophy classes of Qom 's hawza . It broadly covers the same ground as Allameh Tabatabaei 's Arabic-language works in philosophy " Bidayat al-Hikmah " and " Nihayat al-Hikma " . Mesbah-Yazdi 's " Amuzesh-e Falsafeh " has been published in English translation by Gary Legenhausen and Azim Sarvdalir as " Philosophical Instructions , " Binghamton University 1999
