First thing in the morning, I went to the office of the Islamic Republican Party and inspected the work of the "Key to the Quran" group (the index cards I had prepared in prison for organizing Quranic topics). Mr. Do'agoo was not there. It was postponed to later. In prison, over the course of two and a half years, I wrote about one hundred thousand index cards, which serve as the foundation for a great and seminal work for those wishing to research the Quran, but much work still needs to be done.

Before noon, we had a Bylaws Committee meeting. Sending two people to the Inter-Parliamentary Union in Manila had run into a problem. Mr. [Mohammad] Khatami was not inclined to go. Selecting the next person was also difficult. Some wanted Mr. Mohammad Montazeri and some wanted Mr. Emami Kashani. The thirteen-person committee convened again, and I asked Mr. Khatami to accept so that the issue would be resolved. Fortunately, he accepted, and the problem was resolved.

In the delegation, the appointment of a woman as a reporter on behalf of Pars News Agency was opposed. They did not consider it appropriate for a woman to travel with a group of men, so they replaced her with a man.

In the evening, a group of villagers from Qazvin came and complained about Mr. Sadr Haj-Seyyed-Javadi's intervention in a murder case that had occurred.

Representatives of a group of Mazandaran microwave employees who had been transferred under allegations of ties to the counter-revolution came and had complaints. I spoke with the Minister of Post, Telegraph, and Telephone, Dr. Qandi, and it was agreed that they would look into it.

A guard (Pasdar) from Parliament came for his marriage ceremony, and Mr. [Asadollah] Bayat and I recited the marriage vows, with a dowry (mahriyeh) of thirty thousand Tomans. Mr. [Seyyed Sajjad] Hojaji, representative of Mianeh, came and complained about the subversive activities of the Muslim People's Republic Party in Azerbaijan and was seeking a solution.

Prime Minister Mr. Rajai called and gave news of bringing the budget bill to Parliament. It was agreed that next week on Tuesday, the ministers would have lunch at Parliament so they could be in touch with representatives regarding provincial affairs.
