Jihaad

Her escaping continued with the threat moving closer every second. A hand clenched her leg; she fell and her head hit the floor, she lost her consciousness. He dragged her down the stairs.

Her parents were roped. Father helplessly cried at her daughter’s plight.

‘Abul faazil, raham. Look, I accept; we are kaafirs. Now please, leave her.' She bemoaned, 'she is innocent; don’t hurt her. She is just 14, a child. Don’t do this to her, she will die.’ her mother pleaded.

‘Khamosh badjaat. How dare you claim this land, this is our place.’ He ordered his men to disrobe the girl and tie her hands to the pillar. ‘This is what jihaad demands and we shall deliver. You kaafirs will see today.’ One by one, they crushed her sanctity.

One week later:

‘Jihaad is a journey where HE, guides us towards righteousness. And you all have disobeyed him, in his name, you have committed the biggest sin and you will be damned for it. Remember, it is not the child you have dishonored, but yourselves, coz. what always suffers, is evil.’

Karim, a social activist, left no stone unturned in getting justice for the family. The Jihad was delivered.
