I told him: "You can't go, because you don't have military priorities and use of weapons!". He looked at me a little and then said:

"I will join courses on how to fight and use weapons."

"But that takes time and you want to go now!"

"Don't worry, I will work on organizing volunteers and join into a life with them until I am ready to fight."

"A young man like you has airlines and speaks four languages. What makes him think about going to the battlefront and leaving this luxury?!"

He smiled quietly, then said:
"Do you agree with me that everyone will die?"

"Yes .."

"So be it for God’s sake, what is wrong with you? Is there a way to die better than being a martyr for God?"

After that he joined the front and won the honor of martyrdom.
His friends tells me that his work on the battlefront was in engineering the field, that is, he was entering before the storming forces and dismantling the bombs and then the forces enters after him!
They say that he won the honor of martyrdom by a bomb that he wanted to dismantle, and it exploded on him.
