Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – March 25, 1989

I reached the parliament at quarter past nine. The streets are still quiet due to the Eid holiday. I read the reports. I called Ayatollah [Mousavi] Ardabili [head of the judiciary]. They came to the office. We discussed for an hour about the Imam's recent decision, the issue of experts, and the issue of Ayatollah Montazeri, and discussed possible ways to solve the problem.

Mr. Abdallah Nouri [Imam's representative in the Revolutionary Guards and Construction Jihad] came. He gave a report on the situation of the Revolutionary Guards and the propaganda of the Revolutionary Guards and the cultural and political programs within the Revolutionary Guards. I confirmed. He was also aware of Mr. Montazeri's issue to some extent and expressed concern; He does not know everything. Mr. Bahrami's wife [classmate during Talabgi] came; He had brought a message. He asked for help to save himself. I worked in my office until half past four in the evening. I came home

On the way it seemed to me for the first time, the obscenity is rather extensive. Women leave part of their hair out. Make-ups are thicker and thin socks have increased. Probably, the mood of Nowruz and city travelers are not unaffected by this view. I came home, there was no one.

I went to Imam's office and negotiated with Ahmad Agha. informed that today a letter from Mr. Montazeri has been sent to the imam, which is a form of apology and announced that from now on, they will put the imam's opinion before their own. This letter has reduced the Imam's anger a little, but the Imam still has his opinion and may agree by giving more time. After much negotiation, we reached this conclusion again; It should be avoided as much as possible. But the possibility of accepting the imam is weak.
