A digital illustration features my family standing together, dressed in warm clothing, with backpacks and bags, suggesting they are traveling or displaced. The group consists of Dad, Mom, Ahmed, and Maryam in the middle with our beloved cat Tota, Me Darine, Nadine wearing hijabs, and at the end Judi with her backpack. The background has a soft pastel gradient, and the text "Ramadan Kareem!" is written at the top. The expressions on their faces are a mix of resilience and hope. ========≈===========≈===== Ramadan Kareem is a common greeting used during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is a time of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. Meaning of Ramadan Kareem "Ramadan" refers to the month itself, during which Muslims fast from dawn to sunset. "Kareem" means "generous" in Arabic. Together, "Ramadan Kareem" can be interpreted as "Generous Ramadan" expressing wishes for a blessed and spiritually fulfilling month.ALT

A stunning piece by the incredibly talented Notte @rhymeswithfart , inspired by our true story one that began on January 27, 2025, and continues to unfold.

A digital illustration depicts us standing on a hill, overlooking a massive crowd moving along a road. The text "The Return to Home" is written at the top. In the foreground, from R2L Judi Nadine Darine Maryam Ahmed and Mom snd Dad, stand together. Some are wearing headscarves, while others have backpacks. The sky is cloudy, and power lines stretch across the scene, adding to the atmosphere of the illustration. The image conveys a sense of movement, longing, and a journey back to a homeland. ALT
This is a hand-drawn, colored comic-style illustration. It depicts a young man named Ahmed walking carefully with a backpack, as indicated by the caption: "Ahmed scouts ahead, careful with every step." He has curly hair and wears a dark sweater and brown pants. In the background, a man with a beard and a white shirt is carrying a box in front of a fruit stand filled with crates of oranges, apples, and other fruits. The setting appears to be an outdoor or semi-outdoor market area with visible damage to buildings and rubble on the ground. In the foreground, two children are crouched on the ground, building a kite. One child wears a blue sweater, while the other wears a red hoodie and has curly hair. They are smiling and focused on their task. The scene portrays a mix of caution, resilience, and normalcy in a challenging environment. Let me know if you need a more detailed description! ALT
A two-panel comic features my mom and Judi, both dressed in warm clothing. Mom wears a headscarf and carries a bag. In the first panel, they stand on a barren landscape with a cloudy sky. Judi, looking sad, asks, "Do you think our house is still there?" Mom looks ahead with a solemn expression. In the second panel, the background is blue and glowing. Mom, now smiling gently, places a comforting hand on Judi’s shoulder and says, "No matter what, we'll rebuild." Judi looks up at her with a mix of sadness and hope.ALT


A two-panel comic illustration. The top panel shows my family, my father, my brother, and me and youngersiblings, standing close together. They appear worried, solemn, and anxious. The background behind us is a gradient of warm colors, possibly representing sunset or an emotional atmosphere. The bottom panel reveals what we are looking at a devastated landscape filled with rubble and collapsed buildings. We are seen from behind, huddled together as we face the destruction. A speech bubble from one of us reads, 'We're home.' The color palette in this panel is muted, with grays and blues emphasizing the bleakness of the scene. ALT

Maryam with her curly hair, wearing a white cap and dark clothing, stands in front of a pile of rubble. Her expression shows surprise and sadness as she notice a framed family photo resting among the debris. The sky is a muted pink, giving a somber tone to the scene. ALT

An illustration depicts us as a family, including Dad, mom, and me Darine and my brother Ahmed and my younger siblings, working together to rebuild in a post-disaster or war-torn setting. The background shows destroyed buildings, rubble, and debris. WE are engaged in different activities: one sweeps the ground, two carry a large metal sheet, Maryam and Judi stack bricks, and Dad helps mom climb over the rubble. Facial expressions convey determination and cooperation. The sky is a mix of soft pink and blue hues, contrasting with the destruction. In the bottom right corner, a text box reads, "To be continued..." ALT

Please, do not become accustomed to the scene. The war is not completely over yet, and we must not forget the harsh days we have endured.

We need every helping hand, every heart in solidarity, and every voice to amplify our cause. Reviving life here is not a choice it is an obligation we all share. Let us come together on this journey of healing and restoring hope.
