Paranormal Experience
Selami S. is telling the story of his strange time travel experience and the surprising facts he learned there.
One day, in my dream, my mother told me, “You are a bad boy. I will send you too past.” While I was telling her, “No, you can’t”, the house started to vibrate. It was like an earthquake. It was like they were shaking the camera in movies… Anyways, after the vibration, I opened my eyes and I’m at home. However, the furniture is totally different… The couches are different… There are different paintings on the walls… Cross-stitch embroidery everywhere…
I got out and saw my mother. My mother was in her 20s and she was discussing with a woman of her age. She slapped the girl and the girl left. Then I walked towards her in the garden. Someone young passed by with a vintage red motorcycle. He was my father.
The house of my grandparents was next to our home. I wanted to visit them. My grandparents were talking about something important when I arrived there. I used to remember what they were talking about before, but I forgot it now. I took my phone out and thought, “Let me record these because no one will believe me when I tell them.” I started to record everything I see.
Then I saw one of my friends on the side of the road. I said, “Why are you here? My mother sent me to the past, why are you here?” My friend replied, “My relative was martyred. He sometimes goes back in time to re-experience the old days he misses. Sometimes he takes me too but does not tell anyone.” (?)
I have an uncle which I really love a lot. I used to wonder about his youth all the time. I said to myself, “Let me run to his home and see his youth.” While I was running to the home of my uncle, I woke up. The first thing I did was check my phone when I woke up. Was I really able to record everything on a video? I checked the gallery twice to see if the video exists.
When I got out of bed, I went directly to my mother. I told her, “Mom, I’m going to ask you something. Do you remember that you had a discussion with a girl in front of our house in your youth?” She replied, “Where did it come from?” I said, “I just asked. Have you ever slapped someone?”
She said, “Yes. Your Ayse aunt used to buy milk from us when your father and I were newly married. She used to pay at the end of the month. I used to write the amount of milk she purchased. One day, she told me, ‘You wrote wrong. You are a cheater!’ I was angry and slapped her.”
I went to my father and asked him, “Dad, have you ever had a motorcycle in your youth?” My father told me, “Did you see it in the albums? Yes, I used to have a red motorcycle. We gave it to your uncle later on…” The relative of my friend, which I saw in my dream, was really martyred a while ago. I learned about it later by researching it.
I experienced many similar events too. Sometimes, they affected me for months… It may be hard to believe but all these things I have told you and experienced are real. (?) According to Islam, unlike regular people, martyrs will continue to live until Judgment Day in a different and free form between the two worlds.
