Ayatollah Mohammad Hassan Ghadiri recalled through a series of memoirs that Imam’s method of teachings was different from all other scholars at the Qom and Najaf seminaries.
Imam encouraged students and appreciated their efforts for writing lectures and promoting them and did not see any restriction in this regard.
Imam also even sometimes displayed his sense of humor with the students even during very series academic discussions. Furthermore, Imam used to take utmost efforts to stay aware about the students’ problem and used to solve them.
Imam’s ultimate objective had been the students to remain focused on lessons and turn into scholars and become useful for the society.
