There was no sign of scratching in the notes

Order and discipline could be seen everywhere

One of the distinct codes of behavior in personality of Imam was that he cared too much about order and discipline.

Such trait of the Imam was also obvious regarding his teaching career so that he postponed all the meetings coincided with the time of lecturing sessions.

Even he used to make notes from the lectures he had delivered in the class.

Therefore, such meetings were normally postponed to the time when he could accomplish all his tasks on teaching career.

Later, Mr. Karimi and I had the honor of editing those scholarly written notes. However, we could not observe any sign of scratching or careless writing in the notes, though Imam had professionally written them in Arabic.
