This tiny child, this witness, has some words for the terrorists, and words to say about the seven relatives she lost that day when the workers of iniquity decided to attack a bus full of pilgrims, including children such as her. She reaffirms her identity as a Christian and reports that everyone aboard did the same (they refused to say the Islamic confession and become Muslims, and for that they were murdered), asks that God forgive the killers of her family, and observes that the martyrs are now in the best place, where she too would like to go.

I believe that with a strong witness like this, she will get there. May God preserve her, and may He be praised for having placed such an angel upon the earth as a light for many. I am humbled by her testimony. It is the pure Christian faith. Kyrie eleison.
