Reem Mahmoud Abu Daya
Martyr DateJanuary 7, 2024
“If I am killed, write about me and tell the world about my dreams”
The martyr, Reem Mahmoud Abu Daya.
Reem’s greatest fear was not death itself, but rather being remembered only as a statistic after being killed in the Israeli aggression. She often told her friend Mohammed, “If I am killed, write about me and tell the world about my dreams. Tell them that I had undergone LASIK surgery a few months ago and started seeing Gaza with my own two eyes. Tell them that I want to buy a camera to capture the beauty of Gaza.” Reem Mahmoud Abu Daya is not just a number; she will be remembered.
Reem, along with her family, was martyred in an Israeli airstrike on January 7, 2024.
إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un
Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed, to Him we return.
