Adeviyye SALIH (Anas’s mother)

22 May 2024 May 23rd, 2024

With a firm belief, hope becomes strong as well. As one proceeds on their journey with this motto, the impossible becomes achievable.

After the heartbreaking loss of her two sons in the Syrian War, Anas’s mother’s life transforms goodness as she arrives in Idlib with her only surviving son.

Anas’s mother, who prepares a curriculum for her son unable to attend school due to the war, believes that her country’s salvation lies only in knowledge and refuses to leave her homeland. Anas’s mother’s single-teacher, single-student school is expanding with each passing day. Initially, the children of her friends, then the offspring of people in the environs who learned about her school, and eventually, with the Türkiye Diyanet Foundation becoming aware of this remarkable initiative, the school obtained a building.

The Abdülhamid Han School and the neighboring kindergarten are taking shape like this. Anas’s mother’s name becomes the symbol of hope and joy for the children of this school!
