NAVID SHAHED reports from Tasnim’s News, representatives of Qur’anic society in their twenty second visit in this year and in event of celebrating Qur’anic martyrs’ family and became familiar with their biography and lifestyle, visited Qur’anic family of Ahmad Sha’bani.

Martyr Ahmad Sha’bani was born in 1340 who raise on grandee’s pulpit from his childhood and he regularly attended to Qur’anic classes. He was a youth with high morality and characteristic and often attend to congregating prayer and morally he was so polite and well – mannered that respect to large and small persons. Before Islamic revolution he attended to revolutionary activities and Savak also was after him.

In this visit, Shahid Sha’bani’s sister said: Ahmad was a faithful and prayerful person and had keen interest in Qur’an and mosque, he performed Amre be Ma’roof and Nahy az Monkar and he effort to good manners and invite others to good manners. He hired in Iran Docharkh’s company when was a teenager and spent his low salary for poor people and help to orphans. When war was start, his high interest to Jebha cause him to attend to the battles and he was present in most of operations.

When we were in Desfool, we go together to bakery. Ahmad shake hand with a person who wear Basij’s uniform, I said "Did you know him”. "he is Pilot Babaee” he answered. "unless pilots come to bakery queue?” I asked. "Sister, he is a moral man.” He said. He always said that worship God, work for God’s satisfaction, do not be hypocritical, and he learnt Qur’an to children in their early ages who became familiar with Qur’an. Ahmad wrote in his will "I wish I had a thousand lives and spent them in God’s path.”

He respected to our parents a lot and always keep them satisfy from himself, he had high interest in Qur’an and for anyone who wanted to give gifts he gave Qur’an as a gift. In mosque, he gathered children around himself and learnt Qur’an to them. When he came from battles, was disappointed because I didn’t become martyr and then read Qur’an and wanted from God to became martyr.

Ahmad worked faithfully and became martyr sincerely. In year of 1365 which was war operation of Karbala 5 and we were in Dezfool, he came to visit me and my children. I said to Ahmad: "stay”. "No, I had to go” he answered, while he liked me a lot but he preferred the Love of God and Jibha to me and left and became martyr in Om al-Rasas Island by hitting of missile to his boat. His body identified after 15 years. 

My mother passed away 7 years ago and my father died 2 years ago, when Ahmad was missing, while the door bell was ringing, my mother thought Ahmad’s body was returned. He wished to visit God and he finally take this pleasure.
