Dr. Maher al-Sarraj

Since 15th March 2011, thousands of men have died in Syria. Among them was Dr. Maher al-Sarraj, a 48 year old engineer from Homs, a city that has given nearly 3,000 martyrs since the start of the revolution. Maher obtained his Ph.D from France before working at the University of Homs in the Department of Metallurgy. Two weeks ago, on 6th February, Maher was shot outside his home. Though when his neighbour, Fadi al-Atassi, tried to help him, he too was shot and killed. May our martyrs rest in peace, to the highest heavens Inshallah.
