By eleven o'clock in the morning, I did the remaining work from yesterday. We went to the leader's office; At his request, we organized the first session of the Expediency Council of the new system in the presence of the leadership. I spoke briefly. Then the leaders had a detailed talk and explained the reason for the new action and their expectations from us. Then there were some questions and answers.
I returned to my office. Dr. [Hasan] Rouhani came. They talked about the [presidential] elections, Mr. [Ali Akbar] Natiq [Nouri]'s group said that they are worried about the results of the elections and are thinking of a solution, and we talked about the location of the assembly.
In the evening, I had an interview with Sedavasima about the trip to Tabriz and the Expediency Council. Then we saw a short promotional film prepared by the art department of the Islamic Propaganda Organization about construction, which is broadcast between the screens of the cinemas. They are going to make a few of these. Mr. [Mohammed Ali] Zam, [head of the art department] explained; it is good
Dr. [Hasan] Habibi came. They talked about the secretariat of the Expediency Recognition Assembly and it was decided that they would have the position of secretary of the assembly; I had already agreed with Ayatollah Khamenei. He proposed the establishment of the Iranian Studies Center and the rules of the assembly. The meeting place was decided to be in the Marble Palace. Mr. [Syed Mahmoud] Doa'i, [Head of the Information Institute] came and asked for help for the [Newspaper] International Information.
I completed the work by nine o'clock at night and came home. A group of relatives were here. A letter arrived from Ayatollah [Hossein Ali] Montazeri, who requested that if I travel to Mecca, I should ask the Saudi authorities to allow a place for the slaughter of Shia sacrifices in a corner of Mina. Because according to the opinion of Shia scholars, the sacrifice must be slaughtered in Mina, and now, according to the fatwas of Sunni scholars, it is slaughtered outside of Mina.
