Ayatollah Khazali, in reminiscing about Ayatollah Khamenei’s trip to Libya during his presidency, says:
In Libya, they had set up a tent where the height at the entrance of that tent was short and everyone who wanted to enter had to bend down.
On the other hand, inside the tent, in front of the door, there was a photo of Gaddafi; That is, everyone who entered would unwittingly bow in front of Gaddafi’s picture. When Ayatollah Khamenei wanted to enter the tent, he entered from the back so as not to bow his head in front of Gaddafi’s photo.
