Berin Mohammad Bakr Rabie

“I can die, and my father will stay alive. I sacrifice myself.”

Berin Mohammad Bakr Rabie, 4 years old.

Berin was extremely beautiful, and her laughter was soul-refreshing, like the smile of the sun. She was crazy about playing games and loved children. She enjoyed playing with them. She was very affectionate, loved people, and liked to help them. She adored makeup and loved to let her curly hair loose. She enjoyed singing and recording herself while dancing. Whenever people saw her, they loved her and wondered, “Who is this girl? Wherever she goes, she is adored.” She was deeply attached to her mother and father, in an extraordinary way. She was prepared to die rather than see her father pass away. She would say, “I can die, and my father will stay alive. I sacrifice myself.” She was very affectionate and obedient to her parents. She was the smartest child in her kindergarten, and her teacher loved her. She excelled in her studies, loved learning, and memorized parts of the Quran. She was waiting to complete memorizing a whole section after the war ended. She was eager to see her grandmother, grandfather, aunts, and uncles. She adored them and missed them so much that she bought a perfume gift for her grandmother to express her love. Berin loved stories, and every day she would ask her mother to tell her a story. She loved life, sought contentment every day, kissed the hands of her mother and father, and kissed their foreheads and feet. She loved her aunts, uncles, and her traveling uncle. She loved her grandmother and grandfather.

On January 16, 2024, Berin was martyred in an Israeli airstrike in the Mirage area.
