Dear God, give my heart patience, dear God, my beloved, my father, my soul.

They killed him in cold blood, in cold blood they killed him. Thank God, I swear,

he prayed the evening prayer and went out, Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.

I was in the car with him, he was driving me home,

Both my children were in my lap while he was driving. We did not see anything,

I only saw my father get shot.

A bullet hit his head,

we did not see anyone in front of us.

He did not do anything to them at all.

He did not do anything,

we only saw them shoot him while he was driving the car.

We saw— we did not even see any Jews,

I do not know what it was that we saw.

I only saw him get shot.

Dear God, give my heart patience, dear God.

Dear God, give my heart patience, dear God, make me patient, O God.

He got himself together and went out to take his daughter,

she had her children with her, Four children and their mother,

his daughter, with him.

He went out, he went out and did not come back, praise be to God,

Lord of the worlds. I swear everyone knows him, a man there is no one like him.

Praise be to God,

Loved by everyone, and praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.

He was fasting and praying,

praise be to God, I swear he prayed the evening prayer and went out.

Praise be to God, he attained martyrdom, praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.

There is always a spot on Junaid Mountain, where six infantrymen come down.

Naturally, my brother in the army was surprised by them.

He quickly stopped and pulled the handbrake, meaning he stopped, there was nothing.

And they shot him in cold blood.

The first bullet hit his head, and the rest hit the car. They came, four shots.

Two ambulances came, and even when we went down,

they did not allow us to go in to him. Not even his wife, they did not allow her

to go to him. Not the ambulance either,

they did not allow it.
