NguDkt. Hakim

UHadisa, intombazane edala yase-Afghan ye-18, uhamba njengomfundi ophezulu ku-12 wakhe^th ibanga lesigaba. "Umbuzo uwukuthi," azibuza, "ingabantu abangakwazi ukuqeda impi?"

NjengoHadisa, nganginokungabaza ukuthi imvelo yomuntu ingaba namandla okuqeda impi. Sekuyiminyaka ngangiyicabanga ukuthi impi ngezinye izikhathi kudingekile ukulawula 'amaphekula', futhi ngokusekelwe kulolo daba, kwakungenangqondo ukuyiqeda. Kodwa inhliziyo yami yafika kuHadisa ngenkathi ngicabanga ngekusasa eligcwele ubudlova obungenakwenzeka.

UHadisa wathinta ikhanda lakhe emcabangweni ojulile. Wayelalela ngokucophelela imibono ehlukene evezwe ngabanye abavolontiya bokuthula base-Afghanistan. Uzama ukuthola izimpendulo.

Kodwa lapho uHadisa ephenduka e-Borderfree Afghan Street Kids School njalo ngoLwesihlanu ukufundisa ingane ukudla ukudla, manje ebiza i-100 emakilasini asekuseni nasemasontweni, ubeka eceleni ukungabaza kwakhe.

Ngiyambona esebenzisa ububele bayo obuphakathi okuphuma ngendlela engaphezu kwempi eqhubekayo e-Afghanistan.

UHadisa, njengo-99% wabantu, kanye nabangaphezu kwezigidi eziyizigidi ze-60 ababalekela empini yezempi nezomnotho, ngokuvamile bakhetha isenzo esinokuthula, esakhayo kunokudlwengula.

"Abafundi othandekayo," uHadisa uthi, "Kulesi sikole, sifisa ukwakha umhlaba ngaphandle kwempi kuwe."

UHadisa, manje eqiniseka ukuthi kungenzeka ukuqeda impi, uthi #Enough!

Abafundi bakhe bezingane ezisemgwaqweni bajabulela ukufunda kukaHadisa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kude nezitaladi ezinzima futhi ezingalindelekile zaseKabul, bathola isikhala ekuqinisekiseni isikole, ephephile futhi ehlukile.

UFatima, omunye wabafundi bakaHadisa, uhlanganyele ekubonisweni kwezingane zokuqala emgwaqeni eKabul efuna isikole sezingane ze-100 emgwaqweni. Ezenzo ezalandela, wasiza ukutshala izihlahla nokucasha izikhali zokudlala. Kwezinye izinsuku ezimbili, ku-21^st kaSeptemba, usuku lwamazwe onke lokuthula, uzoba omunye wabantwana be-100 emgwaqeni abazokwenza isidlo sasemini kubasebenzi be-100 Afghan.

UFatima wafunda wathi: "Esikhundleni sempi, sizokwenza izenzo zomusa."

Lesi senzo sizoqala i- #Enough !, umkhankaso wesikhathi eside kanye nokunyakaza okuqaliswe amaVolontiya Wokuthula ase-Afghanistan ukuqeda impi.

Hewu! Yeka ukufunda okuwusizo!

Uma izingane zasemgwaqweni zifundiswa izindlela ezingalungile, futhi zaba 'amaphekula', ingabe isixazululo singaba ekugcineni 'sibhekiswe futhi siwabulale'?

Angikwazi ukucabanga ngakho, futhi ngiyaqiniseka ngokwengeziwe, njengoHadisa namavolontiya ase-Afghan Peace, okubulala labo ababizwa ngokuthi 'amaphekula' ngokulwa nawo akusebenzi.

Impi nezikhali ngeke ziphulukise izimbangela 'zobuphekula'. Uma umfowethu noma udadewethu enobudlova, besingeke sicabange ngokubabulala ukuze baphenduke.

Ngangiklasini lapho umbuzo wokuqala ubhekwa izingane zasemgwaqweni: "Ungathanda ukuphika nobani?" Amandla akhuphuka njengethando nethemba elivulela isizukulwane esisha sase-Afghan, noHabib, ongobudala obudala emgwaqeni wayengumfundi kaHadisa ngonyaka odlule, ekhuluma nabanye abaningi, "Abasebenzi!"

Ngazizwa ngishukunyiswe kakhulu, ngibone ukukhanya okucacile komthamo wethu wokunakekela abanye, kunokusebenzisa inzondo, ukucwaswa, ukunganaki noma ukunganaki.

I-Habib, ngepeni nephepha, okwenza uhlu lwezimemo zezisebenzi ze-100 zase-Afghanistan azithola nabo kanye nabanye abantwana base-Afghan street ukudla

Izolo, uHabib wasiza uthisha wakhe wokuzithandela, u-Ali, ukumema izisebenzi ekudleni ku-21^st. Njengoba ngibhala futhi ngifaka isithombe sikaHabib esithatha amagama angama-Afghan asebekhulile kakhulu kuye, ngazizwa nginokholo olusha olwenziwe ikhono lethu lomuntu lokwenza okuhle, futhi umuzwa ofudumalayo, onothando wangihlupha.

Ngabantu abanjengoHadisa, Fatima, Habib kanye nama-Afghans amancane amnandi engiwahlangabezile, ngiyazi ukuthi singakwazi ukuqeda impi.

Ngenxa yabo nangenxa yomusa wesintu, kufanele sisebenze ndawonye ngokubekezela okukhulu, nakho konke uthando lwethu.

Ku-1955, ngemva kwezimpi zomhlaba ezimbili nokulahlekelwa okungenani abantu abayizigidi ezingu-96, uBertrand Russell no-Albert Einstein babhala iManfesto, bethi, "Nansi-ke, inkinga esiyibonayo, inhle futhi iyesabeka futhi ingenakugwema: Ingabe ukuqeda uhlanga lwesintu; noma ingabe isintu siyakulahla impi? "

Ngemva kokuqeda izimemo, njengoba sasihamba emigwaqweni lapho uHabib ayevame ukuthatha khona isisindo sokuhamba ngezinyawo ukuze athole imali ethile emndenini wakhe, ngambuza, "Kungani ufuna ukuqeda impi?"

Waphendula, "Abantu abayishumi babulawe lapha, abantu abayishumi babulawa khona. Yini iphuzu? Ngokushesha, kukhona ukubulawa kwabantu, futhi kancane kancane impi yezwe. "

UHabib uthi #Enough!
