Memories of the Imam that you have never heard! / The story of one Rial coins of the Imam’s house

Life group; Milad Maniei: One of the dimensions of Imam Khomeini’s personality, which may still be strange to many people. It is their personal and family life. We quote a part of the life of the Imam from a personal language that has served him for many years. Hajj Isa Khadem Imam has narrated memories of his lifestyle and behavior that are interesting to review.

Imam’s love for his wife

One day, the Imam called me and summoned me. I said, “Sir’s eyes.” Ms. Imam had a stomach upset. I called the radio that was with Ms. Imam’s companions and found out that they had gone to Shariati Hospital. The Imam was really worried and asked to call and follow up on his wife’s situation from moment to moment. I said, “Gentlemen, they have arrived at the hospital.” They said, “Very well.” After the next call, I went and said, “Sir, go to the operating room.” They said, “Stop.” I stood up. They went and brought 50,000 tomans. They gave it to me and said, “Take this to the south of Tehran and give it to the needy you know.” I said, “Aghajan’s eyes.” I heard that the woman was taken out of the operating room. I said, “Aghajan, they came out of the operating room.” They said, “Wait.” They went back and brought 20,000 tomans and gave it to me. I said, “Sir, let me take this with that 50,000 tomans and give it to you.” They said, “No, this is yours!” Fortunately, I took that 20,000 tomans and gave it to my wife, and she spent it for a while.

I remember once that the Imam’s wife had gone to Hajj or Umrah. At the same time, a serious problem arose between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and I remember that the Imam was very worried about his wife’s life. In general, I can say that the Imam was very interested in his wife. And they had a special respect for them. If someone behaved against their wife’s wishes, they would be upset why, for example, the lady’s order remained. The leaves of the yard answered him and he left why he had not commanded the Imam’s wife.

Imam’s childish games with children

The Imam played with the children a lot, while they were more entertained with Seyyed Ali. One of their games was that Ali said that he was my doctor and that he was examining the Imam. Oba Imam also played ball. For example, one of their games was when Ali said that now I am Imam. The Imam also accepted and said with gusto, “Well, I am Ali.” The game was starting and Ali was taking himself seriously. At that time, he gladly ordered the Imam to do this! Do it. For example, he said tell them to come. I want to go to Hosseinieh and he imitated the words of the Imam. Imam loved this game. What is more interesting is that sometimes Ali used to give a speech imitating the Imam and say that I would appoint the government and the Imam would laugh.

Imam’s advice to young couples; Be friends with each other!

The Imam loved the people, especially the youth, very much, and it is no exaggeration to say that the intensity of this interest could not be imagined. He sometimes recited a few wedding sermons a day, which usually ranged between 2 and 4. To register, people called Mr. Ansari’s office and took their turn. The Imam himself reads the sermon on behalf of the woman. The other side was told by someone else that Haj Ahmad Agha was also present, but he never participated in this. After the marriage took place, the Imam said, “God willing, you will be successful. Go and be friends with each other.”

A baby born with the blessing of the Imam

One day a woman came there and said, “Hajj, sir, open the door so that I can go to the Imam’s shrine and pray two rak’ats.” I said, “Oh, ma’am, I’m not allowed.” I saw him cry. I opened the fuel door. He went to the place of prayer of the Imam, prayed two rak’ats and left. It took me a year to see him hugging a child and saying, “I have been married for 14 years but I did not have children. I came here and prayed two rak’ats. God gave me this child.” I took the child from him and gave it to Ahmad Agha. Haj Ahmad Agha also said the call to prayer in his ear.

Once, one of the officials, whose name I do not remember, called and begged and said, “Hajji, I am involved!” I said, “What?” “We have been married for 5 years and have not had children. Now my mother has forced me to divorce my wife. I love my wife. My wife loves me too. “Our lives are falling apart. Do something for me.” I said, “Come to Jamaran early tomorrow morning.” When they came, I showed them the place where the Imam prays and performs Ashura pilgrimage, and I said, “Pray here for one rak’at.” They prayed one or two rak’ats and left. Forty days later, she called and said: “I brought my wife Haji, the doctor said she was pregnant!” Some brought their children to the service of the Imam and he said the call to prayer in their ears. Some parents asked them to choose a name for their baby. In naming, if the baby was a girl, they would name her Fatima, and if Fatima had another name, they would choose another name. The baby was a boy, they chose the name Ali. Muhammad and Abdullah were also among the names that emphasized the choice of babies. They first wanted to name Mr. Seyyed Ali Jafar, but the Imam said he was Ali.

The story of one rial coins of Imam’s house

On Nowruz, the Imam’s family, including the residents of the house and the Imam’s brothers, came to visit him. Of course, they also celebrated Eid. In this way, they paid a sum and it was distributed among the office workers. During religious festivals, the daily behavior of the Imam changed and was even reflected in greeting them. The face of the Imam was very good and open during the holidays. On different occasions, many people came and went to the house. The Imam had a candy box filled with one rial and those who came to visit the Imam. Regardless of whether they were insiders or strangers, the Imam would give them one of the rials. When the Imam passed away, there were a few rials left that I remembered.

Room with a janmaz!

It is no exaggeration to say that there was nothing in the Imam’s room and only a prayer hall on which they prayed and a chair on which they sat. The room also had a niche that was very narrow and they had their books in it. There was also a room in the Imam’s house where officials would come and sit and talk. There was also a room behind the main room with a curtain in front of which there were many books behind the curtain that later reached Haj Hassan Agha.

Cats that were used to Imam Kebab!

A few cats were permanent residents of the house, and incidentally, they were not a little adventurous. At one point, the Imam gave most of the food I brought to the cats. Haj Ahmad Agha said, “Can you take these cats so that we can get them out of here?” I said, “Yes!” “How?” He said. “I know,” I said. I would put a piece of meat in a sack and a stick in it. The sack remains open. I was standing behind the door myself. Cats would go to the sack to eat meat, I would immediately grab the sack. In the same way, I took some of them, they took them out of the city and left them. The Imam did not realize that, otherwise it was not clear what his reaction was!

One of the cats living in the house was very smart, we could not take his opponent. One day, the female employees called and said that the same cat had entered the Imam’s house, but I was not his opponent again, and he ran away and injured my hand. Finally, we were able to take it, and at the same time, Haj Ahmad Agha saw us in that situation and said with a laugh, “Hajj, the Iran-Iraq war?”
The cats of all Jamars were very afraid of me and every cat that saw me ran away.
