Haider Moslehi, Iran's former information minister, recently recounted a meeting that he said unexpectedly ended without any discussion.
Years ago, this meeting took place between Haider Maslehi and Esfandiar Rahim Mashai, a close associate of then President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Haider Moslehi's differences with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as Minister of Information were among the most controversial political disputes.
According to Maslehi, President Ahmadinejad left Mashai alone with him so that he could convince him on a matter, but not even a word came out of Mashai's mouth.
Haider Maslehi said that the reason for this incident was the ring that he was wearing that day and on which 'Harz-i Amirul Mominin' was engraved. (Harz literally means shelter or safe place while Ameerul Momineen is the special title of Hazrat Ali).
According to Maslehi, the words 'Harz Amirul Mominin' on the ring dispel the effects of magic and that is why Rahim Masha'i could not converse with him. He said that I wanted to give this medal to Ahmadinejad, but could not do so due to certain beliefs.
