Dahe-ye Fajr (Template:Lang-fa-at), i.e. dawning of new age, is a ten-day celebration of Ruhollah Khomeini's return to Iran in 1979. The annual celebrations last from 1 to 11 February and are a national holiday. The start of the celebration coincides with the date of Ruhollah Khomeini's arrival and the ending with Revolution's victory, a day which is called Islamic Revolution's Victory Day or 22 of Bahman.
The ten days
Dahe-ye Fajr marks the anniversary of the ten days from Khomeini's return to Iran (1 February) until the victory day of the Revolution (22 Bahman; 11 February) in 1979.
On the first of February 1979, Ayatollah Khomeini returned to Tehran after being exiled by Muhammad Reza Pahlavi to France. Several million people received him at the Mehrabad International Airport. Khomeini then visited the Behesht-e Zahra cemetery where he gave a lecture. He branded Shapour Bakhtiar's cabinet as illegal and said that he will punch Bakhtiar's government in the face.
