Um Zainab shares her story:

"Memories are plentiful, and as the years pass, they delve deeper into details. Life without him is challenging, and the responsibility is immense; I yearned for his presence.

On the day of his arrest, he went out with friends, and anxiety set in when he did not return on time. Until his friend informed me of his arrest. I resisted acknowledging the possibility of his loss, holding onto hope of seeing him again. That hope shattered when I saw him in one of the photos leaked by Caesar.

I encourage every woman grappling with loss to be resilient, patient, and navigate through the reality forced upon her."
