The Supreme Leader's statements in his meeting with the participants of the Martyrs' Commemoration Congress go beyond symbolic speeches, carrying strategic guidelines for preserving the heritage of the Sacred Defense, consolidating the culture of sacrifice, and reproducing the collective memory of society. Despite the importance of these statements, systematic analysis of speech acts and extraction of their strategic themes have received less attention in the research literature. The present study aimed to identify and explain the overarching themes of the Revolutionary Leader's statements and examines the manner in which moral, cultural, and identity values ​​and guidelines are transmitted and their impact on guiding the participants and continuing the culture of sacrifice. This qualitative-applied study was conducted using textual content analysis and the data-driven method, and data were collected and analyzed from the official texts of the selected statements with purposeful sampling. The results showed that 17 core categories include strengthening national-religious identity, representing and modeling the martyrs' lives, protecting the truth of the sacred defense, institutionalizing the memory of martyrs through memoirs and documentation, managing and making congresses effective, supporting and honoring the families of martyrs, the role of the younger generation in preserving values, promoting cultural jihad, and creating a strategic framework for cultural policymaking
