A Family That Refused to Let War Become the Teacher
The family lived through displacement, political upheaval and loss. His father, Mohibullah, served in the military and treated education as a form of protection. His mother, Halima, could not read or write, but shielded the children through war and insisted that survival could not be the limit of their future.
