When I was commander of the Revolutionary committee, on the day of the Eid al-Ghadeer, the Imam had a meeting with the government officials at the Husseiniah. After the conclusion of his speech, the Imam returned home with the officials and sat on the chair that was placed at the entrance of his room. The government officials went to meet the Imam at his house. On the Imam's side there was a bowl filled with one rial coins as souvenir gifts for Eid. With a radiant face that was brimming with joy, the Imam responded to our greetings and with his right hand he picked a few coins and gave each of us one. He also gave me one. I alwayas wanted to see more of him so I joined the queue again and kissed his hand and received another souvenir coin from him. The third time the Imam noticed me at the end of the queue and gave me a smile. I thought to myself:" O Imam please give one for my mom, who was ill and I wanted a coin as a blessing and cure for her." While displaying a sweet smile, the Imam put a few of the remaining coins from the bowl into my hands and in a warm and kind tone said:"Take this for your mom!
