Summary: The Return of the Ayatollah refers to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, when Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini returned to Iran after 15 years in exile to lead the overthrow of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi’s monarchy. The Shah’s regime was seen as corrupt, oppressive, and too closely aligned with Western powers, especially the United States. Khomeini’s return marked a turning point: massive public protests and strikes forced the Shah to flee, and soon after, Khomeini established the Islamic Republic of Iran, replacing the monarchy with a theocratic government based on Islamic law (Sharia).
