The one who lit up my building, that star of my eyes is gone. The religion of God is proud of the house of the Prophet, the verses of the Quran are proud of that house. This is the mourning of the oppressed, it will not reduce, it will be in every house, it will be in every heart, this is the mourning of the oppressed, it will not reduce.
