Due to the presence of a large crowd and constant coming and going, the Imam emphasized that there should be no movement or behavior that would inconvenience the neighbors who were all Christians. In reality, the Imam was extremely careful and strict in relation to observance of the well-being and relaxation of his neighbors lest the neighbors be bothered and inconvenienced by the crowd or the stream of visitors to his residence. This observance and behavior resulted in all the residents of Neauphle le-Château and the neighborhood to become extremely sorrowful when the Imam wanted to return to Iran. For this reason a number of them gave the Imam a quantity of the soil of France to take with him as souvenir.
