In 1963 and on the day of ''Ashura', the Imam was to deliver a speech. Meanwhile, the commandos of the Shah's army had been deployed inside the Faydiyyah Theological School. There was great commotion in the city and the rumor had spread that a great danger threatened the Imam and that it was better that he stay away from the Faydiyyah seminary on that day. However, he did not accept and was even not willing to sit in a roofed automobile. For this reason, he arrived at the Faydiyyah seminary in an open jeep and in the midst of the people and while addressing the Shah with the same blatant accent stated: "You puny guy, don't do something that will cause me to order them to throw you out of this country."[1]
