Before the Imam was forced into exile, the owner of one of the big industrial units of Tehran built a mosque and requested the Imam to nominate a person to propagate the religion for the people. Initially, the Imam accepted this matter with great reluctance but after nominating a cleric and at the time of dispatching him, the Imam stated: "In addition to propagation and enlightenment, your duty is to keep in mind two things. First, that in this mosque there must be no mention of my name; and second, your attitude towards the founder of the mosque should be such that he does not get the impression that you covet his wealth and assets.[1]
