He was a polite, neat and tidy Sayyid

Imam was at his thirties at that time, yet he was the youngest of all the Shiite religious authorities or Marja' who attended the classes of my father-Ayatollah Shahabadi, the Imam’s Islamic theosophy professor-in those days. I can recall quite clearly from my childhood memories that he would come sooner than the rest of the audience and leave later than all of them. Similarly, I remember him as an extremely polite, neat and tidy Sayyid man.
