The Dhaka Times Desk Kishore Ahmed from Texas has become the most talked about teenager in the world. The teenager's life changed overnight.
The events of just one day changed the life of 14-year-old Kishore Ahmed from Texas. Ups and downs happened in Kishore Ahmed's life in just 24 hours!
Only 14 years old Kishore Ahmed made a new digital watch. The watch was brought to a school teacher to show it. But the teachers did not take his invention for granted. The reason for this is that his name is Ahmed, that is, he is a Muslim. So this work of his was seen with suspicion. The digital watch was suspected to be a 'bomb'. The police was informed. Kishore Ahmed was arrested. He was interrogated for hours.
After the matter became known, the opposite happened. Former American 'First Lady' Hillary Clinton joined in protesting Ahmed's harassment. There was a storm of criticism on social media. US President Barack Obama himself invited Ahmed to visit the White House through a tweet on Twitter to see the watch he made. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg came forward in support of Ahmed. Facebook leader Zuckerberg also wanted to talk to Ahmed on Facebook. He not only thanked for such innovation but also promised to stand by him.
These events changed Kishore Ahmed's life in just 24 hours. Ahmed became the world's most talked about teenager. This is one of the many harassments Muslims are facing in the world due to militant terrorist activities. Islam never supports killing and torturing people. But some terrorist groups have changed this idea. Now Islam is understood by other religions as terrorist activities. This teenager named Ahmed was the victim. However, the incident of that teenager is bringing the main principles of Islam to the fore. Islam never condones any injustice-tyranny, it came up again. Islam is a religion of peace. Islam can never be hostage to some militants or terrorists.
Ahmed has to pay the 'damage' of misunderstanding. Therefore, his first response to the journalists on this day was just like, 'We can leave the bad habit of misunderstanding! I went to show my made digital clock to the school madam. He got scared seeing that. Maybe he thought it was a bomb!'
How did the storm in the life of the 14-year-old boy in Texas? Ahmed's quick response after this question, 'I feel very bad. Who knows why the teacher misunderstood me! Now I don't want to stay in this school anymore.'
Ahmed, a 14-year-old boy, clearly says that he likes to make new instruments. He said, 'I want to make many more such new instruments. I wish more youths like me would be born. I want to study at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). If someone like me is in danger while inventing something new, then I want to stand by them.'
