She is quiet and most often wears black in public. She gives the impression of having been through a lot of heartache in life, but has come to accept everything with poise. Every time Tzu Chi Jordan holds an activity, she travels from her home in Ramtha to the national capital of Amman to take part in the event. Ramtha is a city located in the northwest of Jordan near the border with Syria, about 90 minutes from the capital. Knowing that her finances are a challenge, Tzu Chi volunteers sometimes offer to subsidize her travel expenses, but she always declines.<\/p><p>In 2019, during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, Ismahan once again took a bus to Amman to attend a Tzu Chi event. The Tzu Chi Jordan office had invited some volunteers to the office to learn videotaping techniques that day. As usual, Ismahan listened quietly in the audience as the event progressed.

Daraa was an important agricultural area in the south. People there were kind and unsophisticated. Ismahan\u2019s husband, Mousa, ran a thriving blacksmith\u2019s workshop. The couple hoped their two sons would take over his business in the future.<\/p><p>Sadly, that future was never to arrive. In March 2011, a civil war erupted in Syria, and Daraa was thrown into turmoil. The couple wanted to uproot their family and flee to Jordan, but their older son, Ali, refused to leave. Not wanting to leave without him, the family stayed. After persisting for more than a year, Ismahan and Mousa finally decided to leave with their younger son, Ali\u2019s two-year-old daughter, and his wife, who was six months pregnant. Ali, 24 at the time, decided to stay and join the Free Syrian Army.<\/p><p>After arriving in Jordan, the family stayed separately with different families, and even lived for a spell in the Zaatari refugee camp. Life was difficult, but for Ismahan, it couldn\u2019t compare with the pain of worrying about the safety of her older son. In July 2013, Mousa decided to take a risk and return to Syria to accompany Ali. Sadly, just two months later, Ismahan received the news she had most dreaded.<\/p><p>September 28, 2013, was a day Ismahan will never forget: her beloved son was killed in battle that day. His comrades held a funeral for him. Before her husband came home, Ismahan asked him to bring back the clothes her son was wearing when he died. Her husband did as asked, bearing the tragic burden back to his wife. Clutching her son\u2019s blood-stained pants to her chest, Ismahan was beside herself with grief.<\/p><p>Chen Chiou Hwa (\u9673\u79cb\u83ef), the head of Tzu Chi Jordan, recalled the first time he met Ismahan. \u201cShe held the pants and cried in front of us,\u201d he said. \u201cSmelling the pants, she said her son\u2019s blood was more fragrant than perfume. That was such a sad scene.\u201d Chen vividly remembers how even the air at the time was saturated with heartrending sorrow.<\/p><p>By then, Ismahan and her family had been settled in Ramtha for more than half a year. Tzu Chi and a local charity were working together to help them. When Tzu Chi volunteers in Amman learned that the family had lost their son, they visited them to extend their condolences and see whether there was anything they could do to help. Tzu Chi began providing long-term aid to them afterwards, helping them with their medical needs and easing their financial burdens.<\/p><p>Tzu Chi volunteers visited the family every month. Touched by their care, Ismahan said, \u201cNo one has made us feel as safe as Tzu Chi. Tzu Chi has eased the pain and mental torture the war has caused us.\u201d Gradually, she began joining Tzu Chi volunteers in doing good and helping others.<\/p><p>In February 2018, a 6.4-magnitude earthquake hit Hualien, eastern Taiwan, toppling buildings and killing 17 people. When the news reached Jordan, Ismahan decided to help with Tzu Chi\u2019s relief work for the quake by sewing gloves out of recycled fabric and donating them to be sold. She also made woolen caps and donated them to refugee children.<\/p><p>In late 2021, when Jordan was going through the fourth wave of COVID-19, Ismahan tested positive for the infection. She asked Tzu Chi for help in mid-December, and after treatment with medications and an oxygen concentrator, she recovered and regained her health. She was deeply thankful to Tzu Chi volunteers, who checked on her every day. She paid forward their love afterwards by helping Tzu Chi care for others in Ramtha infected with COVID-19. When\u00adever someone tested positive and needed an oxygen concentrator, she asked her younger son to sign them up for help and deliver a concentrator to them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-47984dee elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"47984dee\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-708afc17\" data-id=\"708afc17\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b54e5c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2b54e5c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"812\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/670-48-Jordan-pix.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/670-48-Jordan-pix.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/670-48-Jordan-pix-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/670-48-Jordan-pix-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/670-48-Jordan-pix-768x433.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ac04a1a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1ac04a1a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Holding a donation box, Ismahan solicits donations for Tzu Chi at a Tzu Chi event.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32f9b6a elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"32f9b6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-738fbb9 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"738fbb9\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f9a519f\" data-id=\"f9a519f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9cceee2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9cceee2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Love emerging from pain<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-160540e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"160540e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Ismahan had a study with a large collection of books when she was living in her hometown in Syria, and was in the habit of recording her family life.
