He stayed along Imam during tough years of exile and stood behind Imam for historic struggle which lead to the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.
He had been considered as right-hand and the key sincere advisor to Imam who stood by the revolution in thick and thin times.
Imam Khomeini, the leader of contemporarily Muslim world had highly trusted his learned son during tough years of struggle against the Shah regime and its backers.
When he came to this world on 1324 AHS/1956, his eyes fell upon the father who had been bestowed with spiritual blessings. Sincethat moment, his destiny turned closely associated and became intertwined with the father.
The father (Imam Khomeini) whispered the Adhan as a first voice in ear of the new-born baby.
The baby name was chosen as Ahmad, who became so cherished for the dad and dear to entire family.
Reciting of spiritual supplications by his father at nights, and broad day discussions about performance of divine obligations and concerns regarding how to relieve people form clutches of the tyrannical and monarchial rule had provided grounds for his political and intellectual growth.
In such circumstances, he learned his social experiences and became familiar with the contradictions and problems gripping the society.

The popular uprising of June 1963, which followed after the arrest of Imam caused a great transformation in Ahmad’s life. The events resulted in strengthening his contacts with prominent seminary figures, combatants and figures from various walks of the society.
The spiritual advantages however from the father’s presence did not last long as Pahlavi regime agents, who were eager to send Imam into exile, didn’t allow him to share and define grave responsibilities for Ahmad.
Since very early days of Imam’s exile, he sought to rush to see father in order to know his duties and obligations.
In 1964, he secretly travelled to the Iranian border city of Abadan in order to reach the Iraqi holy city of Najaf in order to join Imam there.
Finally, Imam made a historic return in early February in 1979 to homeland after spending several years in exile.
Shortly after the victory of Islamic Revolution, Imam decided to moveto the holy Iranian city of Qom in order to take care of the household and run affairs of the Islamic-Republic.

He also behaved people with smiling face and excellence moral.
In addition, he had stayed away from any type of jealousy towards individuals.
Honesty and keeping secrets can be considered as two of his most prominent qualities.

Unfortunately, five days of constant struggle by a medical team couldn’t bring result.
