At just 24, Mohammed has endured two years of detention, beatings, and torture. Now living in a fragile tent with no home or job, he needs support to find safe shelter and rebuild his life.
When I was just 21, I was detained and spent two years in prison. During those years, I endured severe beatings, torture, and suffering. I prayed and hoped that one day I would make it out alive. By the grace of God, I did.
But freedom did not mean that life would become easy.
When I came out, I found myself facing a completely different reality. Today, I live in a fragile tent. I have no proper roof to protect me, no walls to make me feel safe, and no job to help me support myself.
Every morning, I wake up to the sound of the tent fabric shaking in the wind instead of an alarm clock telling me it is time to go to work.
Sometimes I sit outside my tent and watch children playing barefoot in the mud. I remember when I used to wake up thinking about my work and the day ahead. Now, I wake up wondering how I will get through another long day.
I once thought that losing two years of my life in prison was the greatest loss I could experience. But there is another kind of pain: being alive, breathing, and free, yet having nowhere to go and no clear future to look forward to.
There is no workshop waiting for me, no home to return to, and no stable source of income.
Still, I have not given up. Every day, I tie back the pieces of my tent that have come loose and sweep the ground in front of it. These small actions may seem ordinary, but they are my way of holding on to hope and reminding myself that I still deserve a better life.
I am asking for your help to find safer shelter, meet my basic needs, and get a chance to rebuild my life after everything I have been through.
I cannot get back the years I lost, but with your support, I may be able to build a better future.
Thank you for taking the time to hear my story and for standing beside me.
