Maryam Amir – The Goode Hug

			Sister told me that every day
before her husband would go to
		

			work, he would pray Fajr in the
masjid, and before he left the
		

			house, he would give her a goodbye
hug. And it was something that
		

			meant so much to both of them. One
morning, she was using the
		

			restroom, and she didn't get out
in time, and he had to leave to
		

			make it to Salah, and so he said
goodbye through the door, and she
		

			was really sad that they didn't
get their goodbye hug. Before he
		

			left, she prayed sudger, and after
she prayed, she got a text from
		

			her husband saying that he forgot
something at home, and he's going
		

			to come back. He comes in the
house, she goes to him, and they
		

			give each other a really long hug,
and then she asks, What did you
		

			forget? And he says this, I forgot
my goodbye hug. And so Subhanallah
		

			that joy and that that mercy and
that tranquility that she felt
		

			when he came back, when he made
the the effort to come back, just
		

			to give her that hug for their
day, that that comfort that she
		

			shared the story with is what I
want to share with you. I speak
		

			about trauma in the community,
especially as it relates to women
		

			a lot, and at the same time, we
have solid men and solid women who
		

			work really hard for one another.
And I think it's important for us
		

			to also speak about those stories,
which you don't hear about very
		

			often. Yes, dela Claria, the
