Was he not perfect?
;-)
Forgive my lack of knowledge of Farci and some concepts of perfection. But if I remember correctly from study, "Shah" means "best." Some of the Shahs were described to have had perfect ceremonial behavior. But later, Khomeini described himself as being the perfect guide, somewhat ruining the concept for the sake of propaganda.
Correct me on whatever is erroneous above.
So, in a sense, did his title, itself (Shah) mean "perfect?"
