Ya Allah, give them strength. It’s not just a job, it’s a test of the heart. May their tears be a witness on the Day of Judgment.

Honestly, sometimes I wonder how they still stand. The ummah is bleeding. We pray they find healing.

It’s not just processing trauma-they’re documenting history while grieving. That takes a different kind of courage. Sending duas their way.
