Interview with Martyr Hussein Ghasemi's Wife:

The Last Oblation of a Demolition Commander

Navideshahed: The last night he was with us, he played a lot with the children and kissed Zeynab every time and again. I got curious and asked him why he kissed Zeynab more; he said …

According to Mashregh News Jihad and Resistance Group, martyr Hussein Ghasemi was born in 1955 in Tehran city. When the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps was established, he joined this sacred organization and when the Iran-Iraq war started, he went to the battlefields.

Martyr Hussein Ghasemi started his jihad in the mine clearance unit and after awhile he was appointed as the commander of Mine Clearance Unit of Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps of Neighborhood 10 of Tehran city. He was a mine clearance trainer as well. He would go to the battlefields and he would neutralize the exceptional cases which would be seen in war.

Eventually this respectful man was martyred in the holy Mashhad city when he had gone there to neutralize a bomb located near the Shrine of the eighth Imam, his Excellency Imam Reza (AS). What you read bellow is the second part of the interview with Mrs. Ghazvini, the spouse of martyr Hussein Ghasemi.

***
The story of choosing the names of children has an interesting story. Since Mr. Hussein would respect his parents so much, he thought it is better that we let his parents to choose names for our children and also he had considered some names for our children as well.

His grandmother had a sister and a brother whose names were Fatemeh and Mohammad Ali, but both of them had passed away.

Since Mr. Hussein liked these two names, since long time ago he would say his mother that why he had not use the name of her sister and brother for any of her children? He continued this discussion so much so when our first child was born, he named him Fatemeh and he named our son Mohammad Ali as well. But when our third child was born, his mother asked what name he had chosen for her? He said: I have not chosen a name yet. Mr. Hussein liked the name of Zeinab so much, but he would not express it at all and each time that we would discuss about choosing the name of our third child, he would change the discussion title. So we had not chosen a name for her until the time that she was born; but when our daughter was born, his mother would say that she would like to put the name of Soghra that has been her mother. On the other time since the child had been born on Ghorban Feast, the mother would suggest that we name her Hajar. Mr. Hussein had told them that he respects both mothers and I name her Zeinab.

***
Our daughters liked their own names so much. Especially when we would attend the religious ceremonies, they would count how many times their names would be used. We had gone to a mosque on the birthday of her Excellency Zeinab (S), each time that the name of her Excellency Zeinab (S) would be mentioned, our daughter Zeinab would get delighted and she would say that her name has been mentioned!

***
Martyr Ghasemi would get so sad each time that one of his friends would be martyred. He had a friend whose name was martyr Kohan. One day after our marriage Mr. Hussein went to the market to buy a newspaper and he got aware about the martyrdom news of his friend ‘Kohan’. He got so sad about this issue.

***
He liked martyrdom so much. On the final days of his lifetime he had dreamed about something and he had been confident that someday he will be martyred. On the final day of his lifetime it had been clearly inspired to him and it was really obvious in the procedure of his good byes. I can strongly say that moment was the saddest moment of our common life.

***
During the project, martyr Sanatkaran, martyr Torabiyan and martyr Ghasemi would work together. One night when Mr. Hussein wanted to go to bed, he asked his father to awaken him in the morning. His father that would always pray God in the mornings regularly, he did not wake up on time in that morning.

In the morning, Mr. Hussein woke up so quickly and he said, why didn’t you awaken me in the early morning? I was left from my colleagues. His mother called him and he said: ‘Dear Hussein, last night I dreamed something’. It was not your destiny to go today. I dreamed that a Sayyed came to me with a green piece of clothing and he told me three times: Let me to take Hussein to Karbala, but each time that he would ask this question, I would say no! But during the third time I said: Mr. No! Anyone who wants to take Hussein, he should take me too. Sayyed got sad and he left. Probably an event will occur for your comrades, and it was not your destiny to go.

After one or two hours we were informed that Torabiyan and Sanatkar were martyred. Hearing this news was really sad and painful for my spouse in a way that he had been sad for a long period of time. He told his mother: why didn’t you allow me to go? I really love martyrdom so much. Mr. Hussein was not a man of crying, but when he was so sad, we could not see any smiles on his face. On that day he was thinking about this issue. It was like a cloud which was full of rains, but the condition of raining was not possible for him.

***
The father of martyr Sanatkar was blind. Mr. Hussein helped the parents of this martyr so much, in a way that after his martyrdom, the father of martyr Sanatkar said: “Martyr Ghasemi was the same as a son for me. I feel that I have lost another son.”?

***
Although he had little free time and he would work with some tools that were really dangerous, but he would pay attention to his family so much. On the final times of his lifetime we would go to park. In fact we were five persons and we would get on a motorcycle and go to the park in order to allow the children to play in the park, but he would fall asleep due to much tiredness.
