Persian: كسى را به پيكار دعوت نكن، اما اگر تو را به نبرد خواندند بپذير، زيرا آغازگر پيكار تجاوزكار، و تجاوزكار شكست خورده است

Do not invite anyone to fight, but accept if they invite you to fight, because the initiator of the fight is the aggressor, and the aggressor is defeated.

The hacks registered by Behzad Qasemi in the Hacks Database (Zone-H) are under the name of qasemi.pro, which is taken from the domain of his website.[7][13] There is a common message in the Deface's registered by him: "Don't worry, your information has not been harmed" and this message is because he only informs by hacking and does not harm the information of the sites. He uses Islamic texts in his protest statements and posts that text on Twitter before every attack.[14] In protesting the burning of the Quran in Sweden, Qasemi used Nahjal al-Balagheh on the websites he hacked, including Ali bin Abi Talib's.[15]
