Martyrs Will #1 Muhammad Ebrahim Hemmat

Name: Muhammad Ebrahim Hemmat

Born: April 2, 1955 Shahreza (Isfahan)-Iran

Martyrdom: March 14, 1984 Majnoon Island-Iraq (age 28)

It’s 10:10 of night in 1981/01/09 I write few sentences for my will:

Every night they take a star down to the Earth and again the sad sky is full of stars tonight. Dear mother, you know how much I love you and you are aware of the great love of your son for martyrdom and all martyrs. Mother, stabled ignorance in society leads people to deprivation and vicious governments complete this ignorance. It may take centuries that someone from a pure progeny is born to be able to lead a confounded and isolated society and Imam (Khomeini) is the appearance of the passengers of leadership, courage and martyrdom path. Dear mother, do you remember the time that I was able to sacrifice my life for one declaration of Imam Khomeini? His words have always been an inspiration for the swarming spirit of Islam in my heart. If I’ll ever be able to earn the honor of martyrdom, please ask Imam Khomeini to pray for me so maybe God consider this blameworthy self as a martyr in his glorious presence. Dear mother, I have always despised indifferent and compromiser persons and unfortunately there are too many young people who don’t have enough knowledge of Islam and they don’t know what are they living for and what’s their purpose?! I wish they find themselves. On my behalf tell to young people that martyr’s eyes and their sacrificed blood are looking intently at you. Stand and uphold Islam and yourselves. there is no other revolution like our Islamic revolution in the world, nor east or west; but Islam, the Islam that … I wish the nations on pressure of force, money and deception trinity could find themselves and bring arrogance powers down a peg. Dear mother our society just had a revolution and it takes years for it to eradicate tyrant characteristics and behavior from people’s mind but our liberals damaged this revolution so much due to their lack of knowledge and effort toward this revolution, but God is mighty if they don’t find guidance they’ll definitely be punished. Mother and Father; I love this life but not so much that I lose myself in its filth with ignorance. I love living a life like Imam Ali (AS) and Imam Hussain (AS) and suffering martyrdom like them. Martyrdom in the figure of Islam always strikes the icon of tyranny, oppression, polytheism and paganism. Look what happened to us! Look how much our society has brought into corruption by colonialism. But there is no other way, they are barriers in front of Islamic revolution so these barriers need to be lifted in order to attain improvement. Dear mother I swear to God I won’t be satisfied with you, if you ever cry for me! Live like Zainab (SA) – sister of Imam Hussain (AS) – and surrender me to God.

  1. I’m so happy that you like my blog posts. I suspect we may have very different views of the world. I do not believe God calls us to kill for him–ever–but to live for him, and draw others to him by the way we live.

    1. Sure, I’m really glad to meet your acquaintance too.
      KILL for God!!!??? Come on … ! What kind of a cruel God would ask his believers to kill for him? and what kind of foolish believers would take an innocent life for their God’s satisfaction?
      I’m quite sure that you got the wrong image from my post and also peaceful teachings of Islam. Martyrdom philosophy in Islamic thoughts is basically a voluntary act of defense to protect your nation’s safety against aggressive invasion of intruders. It certainly doesn’t mean to quench any holy entity’s desire for blood or to take people’s lives due to their belief or ever for worldly ambitions! the man that I shared his will was a brave commander during the eight years of imposing war against Iran in 1988.
      At last I don’t think our point of view is too different! on the contrary it’s quite the same. Look at this quote from Imam Sadegh (AS) – the 6th imam of Shia – :
      “Call people to righteousness through means other than your tongues so that they may observe diligence, truthfulness and piety in your actions.”( Meshkat-al Anvar P30)

      If you really want to realize the true meaning of martyrdom I highly recommend to read the tragedy of Imam Hussain (AS) in Karbala; here are some other useful sources:

  2. I like the quote. It’s true that we in the west hear the word “martyr” used almost exclusively these days by extremists who espouse public killing as a way of ushering in “holy war” with non-Muslims and/or with other Muslims who believe differently than the would-be “martyrs” do. In Christian tradition the term refers to those who are killed because they refuse to deny their faith.

  3. I neither agree with any side in war be it east or west as to me all killing is wrong and read your comments with true feeling of peace in my ❤️ I suppose the best way to sum up your martyrs are as you say Mitch those who are killed for their refusal to deny their faith or as I would say NOT deny my belief in God I will share this post on global news site for any further reactions as the word Muslim in the west and many in east are beginning to believe are that all are evil … Personally true Islam does not teach that philosophy so l do not believe it myself .. It’s for God to judge not man … All we can do is 🙏 for help and guidance Amen
