-A Place Not Far From Hateno Village-

(This is Part 1)

This set of pictures is of our, or what used to be our, house in Mount Karmel/Carmel in Haifa, occupied Palestine. The whole perimeter consists of three main sites. The vital site is the Khader Cave, which is a holy place for the three religions: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Then, we can find our house, for we were the guardians of the cave, and a guest house.

Now, ‘guardians’ here means that we were responsible for the good of the cave and in hosting any visitors of the cave.

Alkhadr is mentioned in the Quran in Surat Alkahf, starting Aya number 65 (18:65). It tells its story with Moses PBUH.

My father’s uncle told me that when we were there, around 300 Jewish visitors used to come every year to spend a whole day, for a certain event. Because they are spending the whole day, they used to bring with them their lunch baskets, maybe because it should be Kosher, and they kept their food in our house. They even used to give the kids (my grandfather and his friends) treats.

After 1948, my family was kicked out of Palestine after battles with the British colonial army and the Zionist gangs and the imprisonment of my grandfather in a British army prison in Egypt. The house became many things, such as a Maritime/Navy museum.

Now, the cave is a holy place visited only by Jews.

Living for the day to get back Home!
