He would tidy his own room

When the Imam arrived in Paris, he himself took upon the chore of tidying his own room and however much we would plead with him to allow others to do the job, he refused to allow. During his stay at Neauphle le-Chateau, like always he lived a simple and unpretentious life. Despite the fact that journalists from the most widely-circulated newspapers of the world had a tough competition with one another and would publish the photo of the Imam on their first pages, yet the Imam made no changes in his living style and continued to shun protocol.
