"... They were bombing and decimating the population for reasons only known to the USA and its Allies.
The poor Taliban had no idea why America wished to invade Afghanistan. They had heard of this as a 'mishap' but had no idea of the enormity of the tragedy.
They did not know of the complexity of the buildings and people jumping out of towers 100 stories high,
as they did not have tv's nor did they know a tower when they were told about it..."

Read in the name of your Lord Who created. He created man from a clot. Read and your Lord is Most Honorable, Who taught (to write) with the pen.
Taught man what he knew not. Nay! man is most surely inordinate, because he sees himself free from want. Surely to your Lord is the return. Al-Alaq 1-8

Think not of those as dead who are killed in the way of Allah. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they receive provision.
They rejoice in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His bounty and rejoice for the sake of those who have not yet joined them,
but are left behind (not yet martyred) that on them no fear shall come, nor shall they grieve. Ali 'Imran 169-170

Thanks for sharing. Real terrorist is USA and Western forces who have killed millions of innocent people at the name of so-called war against terrorism.

She has written a book on her experience in Afghanistan ( a must read book for those who are interested in Islam and for those who hate Taliban) below is the link:

This story also explains that Islam spreads with our own character and moral conduct, not with force. Anything we do even if it is small, can have a huge impact on others. May Allah help us to practice true teachings of Islam. Ameen!
