4th April The darkest day in Kashmiri history 💔
Story told by my mother 😭
April 4 was no less than an apocalypse for us.
My mother says I was sleeping when a servant ( Gul kak) knocked the door and said get up someone is demolishing your house.
1/n
#Kashmir

My mother says that I did not sleep that night because one of my son was not well. My father had left 2 days ago for Islamic preaching.
My mother says that when I heared that someone was demolishing our house, I started to come out and when I saw the scene, it was a scene
2/n

scene of doomsday for me.
They were demolishing our second floor and when I tried to to stop them they slapped on my face,
The Gulkak saved my life and brought me to room,I was thinking that it is not even the Indian army who is demolishing our house.
3/n

While those shameless people were talking that we would do wrong with her, I picked up my two children and came out of the window.
When I went away, now I shouted, "save Our house and my children's"
4/n

I was calling people for a hour to save my house, but not a single person came out of their house.
Then I said to gul kak who was an intelligent and brave , so I told him that you go to another neighborhood, there are some friends of my husband, tell them to save our life
5/n

and house.When the Gul Kak left here, these people were saying from a distance that first we will destroy his house, then we will burn the jamate Quran and after that we will destroy her honor.
Half an hour, ten to fifteen people came and they said that you don't worry,
6/n

then I told them that you should save the Holy Quran first, whatever you can get your hands on, you should take it out. At that time more than fifty people were demolishing our house.
So when these people left for home, they had a quarrel with them,
7/n

so they still brought the Holy Qur'an and some things including bedding and food to me .
So I started leaving here to another neighborhood when I put a bed in a courtyard there and was feeding my children there.
Someone told me that they are coming here and they will kill
8/n

you and your children's, please get out of here.
My mother is saying when I left there I was thinking where I would go I have no one of my own .How could I go there alone, which is my own mother's house, which is ten to fifteen kilometers away?
8/n

Then the Gul Kak, whose name was Ghulam Nabi, a very good man, He told me that you are my daughter and I will accompany you to your mother's house.
When I left there, I heard on the way that 29 houses and dozens of Qur'an were burnt in our area.

9/n

When I heard that the Holy Quran was also burnt, So I said to Gul Kak that we will keep the Holy Quran in a safe place so that it will not be desecrated.
so I kept them all in an envelope and told gul kak to climb that tree and put them there.
10/n

now i had 18 Holy Qurans, they burned one in front of me.
When I was walking, some people surrounded me and said that We will not leave you today because your husband says that my life, my wealth and my honor are entrusted to Allah, now let's see who will save you today.
11/n

I was very worried and even then it happened from Allah that five or six men came and called me you leave. Some of these people who came were my husband's friends, so they saved me from them and now I started walking.
When I started walking,
12/n

I was only thinking that I was no longer with my husband, I felt that my husband had been killed somewhere by these devil people.
When I went to my mother's house , I was waiting for my husband, but i had no idea whether he was alive or dead.
13/n

After three days he came here and his condition was very critical. So I told my husband everything that happened to us and he said that they was Indian agents and Indian army and some stupid people who came under their propaganda.
13/n

That day we lost everything we had and we took a rented house.
