Somebody told me that between the years 61 and 62 when colonel Babbaee was the commander of Isfahan Base, "One Friday night I went to Hossienabad Mosque in Isfahan. In the darkness, I heard a familiar voice from the loud speakder."
When the prayers were finished and lights came on, I found out that my guess was right. It was colonel Babaee who was saying the Komeil prayers. So I felt glad" approached and greeted him, and said, "Colonel, may God accept your prayers".
As I called him "Colonel" All the people around us looked at Martyr Babaee. Suddenly I saw the traces of sadness in his face. I asked him the reason, he replied,
"I wish you would not call me COLONEL".
I noticed that nobody had known him till that time. Every Friday night he used to go to that mosque as an ordinary person and said Komeil prayers.
From that night on he never went there to say the Komeil prayers, because he liked to be unknown.
