During Muharram, which occurred months prior to the revolution’s victory when we were in Paris, every day at nine o'clock in the morning, one of us had been assigned to present news and reports to the Imam. I came to report events on the first day of Muharram according to the routine of the previous days and entered the residence.
I found Imam reciting Ziarat-e-Ashura after receiving the developments, he said: The schedule has now been changed and convey me the news and other happenings only before or after recitation of Ziarat-e-Ashura.
