The Islam Awareness Blog: What About the Innocent Children?

What happens to the children whose lives were stolen before
they’ve even begun?

We’ve wept over Reem and Wadea, and were haunted by Hind’s
final cries, and to the countless children who were lost among thousands of
names of those martyred, we wonder how this injustice could continue. While we
grapple with their losses, and pray for their parents, Allah comforts us with
the knowledge that they are nurtured, embraced, and waiting in a realm where
injustice cannot reach them. Their names may fade from the headlines, but they
will never fade from the mercy of the Most Merciful.
