Although the Imam did not eat anything substantial, however believe it or not, he had three or four table spoons and he himself often said that “I desire very much to eat every morsel with a different spoon. I do not like to put the same spoon into my mouth again and again. So that no bit of food dropped on his clothing, he would first spread a napkin and then place a sheet of plastic covering over it. He was extremely particular with regard to cleanliness.
Sometimes we would remark to him that the fuss and ado of his table manners was far greater than the insignificant amount he actually ate.
