Today, my heart is heavy.
Every time I come across news about kidnapped children, I find myself fighting back tears. As a mother, I cannot help but think beyond the headlines.
I think about the children.
I think about where they are sleeping.
I think about what they are eating.
I think about whether they are sick, scared, crying, or calling out for their mothers in the middle of the night.
These are children who did nothing wrong. They simply woke up one day and went in search of knowledge, hoping for a better future.
No child should have to live in fear.
No parent should have to wonder if their child is safe.
No family should have to endure such pain.
Sometimes, I open social media hoping to relax, only to be confronted by another heartbreaking story. It leaves an ache in my chest that words struggle to describe.
Today, I am praying for every child in captivity.
I am praying for every parent whose heart is trapped between hope and fear.
I am praying for comfort, protection, justice, and safe reunions.
May Allah watch over the innocent, protect our children, and grant peace to our land.
Ameen.
