Oh, the pain in my heart…
My beloved brother Khaled “Abu Amr”… God chose you as a martyr, you and your family, after the occupation bombed the house with everyone inside it.
My brother, dutiful to his parents and of good character… your family, loved ones, and everyone who knew you testify to that.
Your students and colleagues at Palestine School and elsewhere testify to you, for you were a virtuous educator.
Mother, your son, the beloved of your heart, has come to you.
My heart will cry for you before my eyes, for as long as I live.
My beloved nephew Amr “Abu Khaled” —
You left and left me with a wound that will not heal, you pious sheikh, mosque imam and Quran teacher…
Your loved ones and your university testify to you, for you were first in the Sharia Department at the Islamic University.
I was waiting for the day you would defend your master’s thesis, and I would be with you, proud of you.
Only days separated us from Tarawih prayers, when the mosque would have been waiting for Imam Amr Khaled Hammad.
You left and took with you your dear wife Raghad, the daughter of my beloved brother Yasser — may God grant them patience — and you took your children: little Khaled, and your beautiful daughter with blue eyes.
You were always accompanying your parents in this passing world, so you accompanied them in the afterlife, as you wished.
Tariq, my beloved, the one with the beautiful smile — a groom in Paradise.
How will the days and years pass without seeing you — if we have life remaining — for you were dutiful, like your father?
How will Ramadan come while I am waiting for you?
My dear, tender brother’s wife.
My brother’s daughters, beloved by their aunt.
Salsabil — your students at Al-Zahraa School cry for you.
Little Nour.
Israa and her children Omar and Tala.
O God, reward us in our calamity and replace it for us with something better.
O Lord, give me patience to bear this pain and loss.
God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.
