Muhammad Jan Sharif

Introduction to Muhammad Jan Sharif
Just as the people of Faridpur had a contribution in the Great Liberation War, they played a leading role in the anti-discrimination movement of 2024. Shaheed Muhammad Jan Sharif became known to everyone as a humane person by providing water and food to the participants in the movement.
Muhammad Jan was born on September 28, 1978, in a poor family in Goalchamot village of Faridpur district headquarters. He was very sociable from his childhood. He used to hang out with everyone like a friend. The family became helpless after the death of his father. At this time, he left his studies and took over the charge of the family. Muhammad Jan Sharif, who grew up in a poor family, was always active in the struggle against injustice since childhood. He started a business to bring prosperity to the family. The family was doing well. At this time, he got married to Rohedun Sejba Banu. She was an officer in a private bank. In 2021, he left his job due to illness. His only daughter, Mahabi Sharif Jara, studies in the second grade at Motijheel School and College. Among the two brothers and sisters, the sister got married earlier. Muhammad Jan Sharif's wife is currently in deep crisis with her sick mother-in-law and baby girl.
Background to Martyrdom
Every person in the society was fed up with seeing the ugly face of a discriminatory society. They were looking forward to the hope of liberation. When the student community came forward to build a non-discriminatory society, the people of all levels joined there. Shaheed Muhammad Jan Sharif was providing water and food to the students from the beginning of this movement. On July 19, he left home saying that it was time for Friday prayers and joined this turbulent movement. While he was in front of the Banasree Mosque in the battlefield, when his wife and child daughter called him repeatedly, he consoled them and said, "I am feeding water and food to the students on the street. You stay at home, I will be a little late to come."
That day, the compassionate Jan Sharif stood by their side with heartfelt love, spending his own money. Meanwhile, the police were continuously firing bullets. Moreover, the Awami terrorists attacked from all sides. The police's targeted bullet entered the chest of Shaheed Muhammad Jan Sharif for the crime of feeding water and food. He immediately fell to the ground. The martyr's companions quickly took him to the hospital. But the doctor on duty declared him dead. The whole area was stunned by grief. This society lost a golden man of courageous and protesting spirit like him. The family bid him farewell with deep tears.
Feelings of a Close Relative about the Martyr
Shaheed Muhammad Jan Sharif was a humane and compassionate person. He would rush to help people in danger. He was an honest, fearless, hardworking, and brave hero. His wife, Rohedun Sejba Banu, says, "Jan Sharif was a very sociable person. He loved me very much. After marriage, I never lived without him. Now I can't forget his absence in any way. The wailing of the child daughter is breaking my heart into pieces." The conscious circles of the area have prayed to Allah that Allah may accept Jan Sharif's humane work.
Family's Economic Condition
Muhammad Jan Sharif was the sole breadwinner of the family. The family is now helpless. His wife, Rohedun Sejba Banu, used to work in a private bank. She also left it in 2021 due to illness. After her husband's death, she has become like a boat without a sailor in an endless sea. She is not seeing any way to raise her innocent child daughter. May Allah help this helpless family without any support.
