The Tragic Death Of A Married Girl.

Source

Today is a sad day for our entire villagers. A married girl of our village has died but it is not an ordinary death, very tragic. Here tragic death means that the girl has been killed.

After waking up today's morning, my mother informed me that a girl from our village had died today. You may understand how I felt after hearing the this. The matter was very sad to me because the girl who died was young. Later on I feel more sad when I find out that the girl is not dead, she has been killed. Now let's go discuss the incident.

Before starting the incident, I would like to say a few words that the girl was married. She got married in another village two years ago. That mean the incident took place at the house of the girl's father-in-law. And I heard about this incident from one of my neighbors and my mother, although I don't know the truth.

The time was after Iftar yesterday. The girl took some money from her husband for shopping on the occasion of Eid. She bought a pair of shoes for herself that cost about $13. Her mother-in-law and husband's sister did not like buying shoes with this amount of money. Because the girl bought shoes with more money than she needed for which they were unhappy. When they find out, they start arguing with the girl about why she bought the shoes for so much money. At one stage of their quarrel, a fight broke out between them. While fighting, the situation became such that the two of them started hitting the girl. At one stage of the injury, a part of the girl's body was hit so that the girl died at that moment. The incident did not stop there. Then they got very scared and started doing more bad things. Later they hid the girl's body and hung it with an electric fan so that everyone could see that the girl had committed suicide. Unfortunately at that time the girl's husband was busy somewhere far away. Maybe if her husband had been there, the girl would be alive today. However, no news of the incident reached us that night. The next morning news of the girl's death spread throughout our village.

After this incident, everyone in the house of the girl's father-in-law fled. Only her husband has been arrested although he may be innocent. Since the girl was killed, her body was autopsied and then buried in our village cemetery. (May Allah make the girl dwell in Paradise)

Killing an innocent girl for buying only shoes is a really heinous act. Maybe there are many more secrets behind this that are unknown to us. But it is a shame for those who are involved in this heinous act and I hope for a fair trial. Even though I know about my country, I am optimistic because it involves my village.

Such incidents happen not only in our village but all over the country and every day. In our country such incidents happen for dowry which is completely forbidden in our Islam. Yet many uneducated people take the lives of many girls for this dowry and even sever the relationship. This is a heinous act.

One day every creature must taste death but I am saddened by the fact that the girl was young and has been married for only 2 years. There was still a lot of time in her life though I shouldn't say that because everything is in the will of the Creator. He has decided who will die when and where. So in this case we cannot blame time. God alone is the owner of guidance. Peace be upon all of us.
