In the Iranian New Year of 1342 (1963-64) when Qom was turned to Karbala of martyrs and the Faydiyyah Seminary into a slaughterhouse a group came to ask the Imam to leave his residence and to relocate to another place for a few nights. The Imam responded to them and said: "Put your faith in God; go away for Khomeini will not go to any other place from here." He mentioned the phrase 'put your faith in God so empathically that the audience began to sob saying that the Imam and the Imam's state of emotion when uttering those words was extraordinary. When the Imam would speak of God, his face would become buoyant.[1]
