The Only Furniture in the House was a Small Table

When the Imam is not busy working in the Faydiyyah theological School or not receiving guests, he goes to the home of his relative located on #16, Yakhchal Qadi Street. This is a white single-storied mud and straw house that was perhaps built a hundred years ago. This house is located in a narrow street in the center of the city of Qum and consists of a courtyard with a small pool. The walls of the house are covered with grapevines. The only piece of furniture of note in his house is a wooden table that he had used for years.
