He took us to a trip

The late Ayatollah Hajj Sheikh Murtaza Haeri has narrated thus: “When my father died, Mr. Khomeini took me and my brother for a trip to the town of Khomein in order that we would forget the memory of our father’s death. At the end of the trip he gave fifty tomans (a tidy sum in those days) to each one of us.”

“One of the great erudite scholars was leading a hard life after my father’s demise. The Imam sent him one-thousand tomans through a third person so that he would not come to know that it was the Imam who had sent him the money.”
