How Allah (swt) dealt with the murderer of Muslims in Bosnia [THREAD]
Most of us will know about the Srebrenica massacre, in which 8000 innocent Muslim men, women and children were slaughtered in cold blood by Serb forces.
The United Nations described it as “a horror without parallel in the history of Europe since the Second World War.”

In this atrocity, not only were thousands of Muslims massacred, but thousands of women and children were also raped by Serb soldiers over a period of several days.
It was primarily used as a tool of ethnic cleansing. Many who were raped committed suicide.

The Srebrenica massacre was carried out under the command of Serb General Ratko Mladic.
"Allah can’t save you, but Mladic can,” said Mladic to Ibrahim Nuhanovic, a Muslim civilian interpreter, in a video-recorded meeting a few hours before the massacre began.

General Ratko Mladic, the man who ordered the massacre at Srebrenica, had two children, a son and a daughter.
His daughter Ana was more beloved to him than any thing or person on the planet. It is said that Mladic loved Ana more than any man can love another human being.

In March 1994, almost two years into the war in Bosnia, she went into the bedroom of her father and took out a box.
Inside the box was a silver revolver that was Mladic’s favourite gun, which he had vowed to use to celebrate a forthcoming grandson from Ana .

Ana picked up her father’s gun, put it to her skull and pulled the trigger. Her body was found lying on the floor of the blood-spattered bedroom.
It is said that she took her life because she had discovered what her father had done in Srebrenica.

So the same Mladic who boasted that he, not “Allah”, could save his victims, was unable to save his own daughter.
A former colleague of Mladic later said in an interview: “Mladić’s life had two phases – before and after the death of Ana. He never recovered. He was a broken man."

In May 2011, some 16 years after the massacre at Srebrenica, Mladic was captured while hiding in a village in northern Serbia.
Before he was extradited to The Hague, Mladic had one request - to make one last visit to the grave of his daughter.

His request was granted. And so they stopped at the cemetry.
The confident, macho general who was known for his swagger knelt down at the grave of his daughter and sobbed. A broken man.
It was as if he sobbed the tears of all the mothers who lost sons at Srebrenica.

A few minutes later he was ushered away and extradited to The Hague. He is set to die in prison.
So humans might forget, humans will forget…
But Allah never forgets. Indeed, as he says in the Qur'an:

"And never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them for a Day when eyes will stare [in horror]."

*Correction: Ana committed suicide prior to Srebrenica. This was attributed to horrific war crimes committed by her father during the Bosnian war.
