Trial Set on June 11, 2026, at 10:00 AM

I am grateful to ALLAH Almighty for helping me successfully complete my online studies and achieve the credential equivalency process that brings me closer to fulfilling my late father's dream of becoming an architectural engineer.

My father belonged to a generation whose opportunities and dreams were deeply affected by the events of 1967. Despite the hardships he faced, he taught us to hold firmly to our faith, values, and moral principles. Because of that legacy, we continue striving to turn those dreams into reality, regardless of the challenges we encounter.

Over the past several years, I have faced many obstacles while pursuing my education and professional goals in Canada. Nevertheless, I remained determined to continue my studies and complete the process required to have my qualifications recognized. What once seemed impossible became possible through faith, perseverance, and the mercy of ALLAH Almighty.

I firmly believe that ALLAH's plan is always the best. Despite every difficulty and every obstacle placed in my path, ALLAH opened doors that allowed me to continue my educational journey and successfully complete this important milestone.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who supported me throughout this journey. First, I thank my children and my family for their encouragement, patience, and belief in me. Their support gave me strength during difficult times.

I also extend my heartfelt appreciation to the Saint Vincent de Paul in general, and specifically my greatest appreciate to L. & V.  for the assistance and kindness they provided along the way. Their support reminded me that compassion, humanity, and generosity remain strong values within Canadian society. I will always be grateful for their help in enabling me to continue pursuing my goals.

Finally, I dedicate this achievement to my beloved father. May ALLAH grant him peace and mercy in his grave. He was the person who always encouraged me to remain steadfast in my faith, values, and principles regardless of the challenges I might face.

O ALLAH, help me to thank You properly for Your countless blessings. I am Your humble servant, and no matter what I do, I can never fully express my gratitude for all that You have given me.

Alhamduli-ALLAH for this achievement, and I pray that it will be the beginning of many more opportunities to serve my family, my community, and society.

*******************************************

As my case approaches its final trial, the first day of the trial is scheduled to begin on Thursday, June 11, 2026, at 10:00 a.m.

This trial comes after more than four years of proceedings, delays, and what I believe has been an unjustified failure to properly recognize and give effect to relevant foreign judgments and evidence. Throughout this process, I have continued to seek one simple outcome: the protection, safety, and stability of my three children and myself.

I respectfully ask that the Court recognize and enforce the final judgments issued in Kuwait between 2019 and 2021. These judgments were issued after both parties were present before the courts, both parties were given the opportunity to present evidence and arguments, and the courts carefully considered the facts before issuing their final decisions. These orders were granted before I was forced to leave Kuwait and were intended to protect both the children and their mother.

I further ask that the Court carefully consider the circumstances that followed, including the father's subsequent efforts to obtain ex parte and default orders without my knowledge or participation after my departure from Kuwait. I believe these later proceedings should be examined in light of the full history of the case and the evidence available to the Court.

My request remains focused on the best interests of the children. I ask for the continued protection of my children and myself, recognition and enforcement of the valid final judgments that were in effect when the mother and children lawfully relocated to Canada, and a fair application of the law based on evidence and established legal principles.

I am also deeply concerned that, until today, serious irregularities continue to affect the management of documents within the Case Center portal. The ability of a party to freely present evidence and submissions before the Court is a fundamental requirement of procedural fairness and justice.

Throughout these proceedings, I have repeatedly observed what appears to be significant confusion and mismanagement of documents within the official electronic court system. The Case Center portal serves as the primary platform through which parties present evidence and materials to the Court. Maintaining the integrity, organization, and accessibility of those records is essential to ensuring a fair hearing.

A review of the Case Center materials reveals that documents submitted by both the Applicant and the Respondent have been grouped together under the Applicant's section, resulting in a file exceeding 10,000 pages. This raises serious concerns regarding the organization and management of evidence. The duplication of documents, the mixing of records from different parties, the apparent absence of certain materials, and the failure to formally accept and stamp some important pleadings submitted by the Applicant have made it increasingly difficult to maintain effective control over the evidentiary record.

The inability to obtain officially accepted copies of important filings, combined with the excessive volume created by duplicated and mixed materials, creates a significant risk that relevant evidence may become difficult to locate, review, and properly consider. I respectfully submit that ensuring accurate document management, transparency, and equal access to the court record is a crucial foundation of justice.

As a Muslim mother, I have often felt that my cultural and religious background has not always been fully understood during these proceedings. Nevertheless, I continue to believe that Canadian justice is strongest when it treats all people equally, regardless of faith, ethnicity, nationality, or background.

I also wish to express a broader concern about the need for transparency and accountability whenever decisions are made that may separate children from their mother. Such decisions should always be based on clear evidence, legal principles, and the genuine best interests of the children involved. Public confidence in the justice system depends upon fairness, impartiality, and respect for the rights of both parents and children.

I am also concerned about the unequal application of procedural rules throughout these proceedings. Despite the fact that the Respondent has failed to attend multiple hearings in Canada, including important Trial Coordination and Trial Management appearances that form the foundation for scheduling and organizing the trial process, the proceedings have continued without meaningful consequences for those failures to comply.

In addition, despite deadlines established by the Trial Management Judge requiring materials to be served by June 5, 2026, the Respondent has continued serving the Applicant with additional documents and information immediately before trial. The continued receipt of large volumes of new materials shortly before the commencement of trial places a significant burden on a self-represented parent attempting to prepare her case and respond fairly to the allegations being advanced.

I respectfully submit that the continued acceptance of late filings and the ongoing expansion of the record immediately before trial create serious concerns regarding procedural fairness and the equal application of court rules. The purpose of scheduling orders and filing deadlines is to ensure that both parties have a fair opportunity to prepare their cases and present their evidence in an orderly manner.

These circumstances have caused me to fear that the proceedings are moving further away from their central purpose: determining the true best interests of the children based upon reliable evidence. My greatest concern is that years of delay, procedural complications, and administrative confusion could ultimately lead to an outcome that harms the children by separating them from their mother despite the existence of extensive evidence regarding their history, wishes, needs, and circumstances.

I remain deeply concerned that the Court has not yet fully addressed evidence regarding the Respondent's conduct in multiple jurisdictions, including allegations previously raised before authorities and courts in Kuwait, Jordan, and Canada. At the same time, the prolonged litigation has had serious consequences for the children.

One particularly urgent concern relates to the youngest child, whose permanent residence application has remained unresolved throughout these proceedings. As a result, a young child continues to face uncertainty regarding her immigration status and access to benefits and services available to other children residing in Canada. I respectfully submit that prolonged delays affecting a child's legal status, healthcare access, and long-term stability are matters that directly engage the child's best interests and deserve immediate attention.

I remain committed to pursuing justice through lawful and peaceful means. I ask all supporters to keep my children and our family in their prayers as we enter this important stage of the proceedings.

Despite every challenge, I continue to place my trust in ALLAH Almighty. No matter how difficult the obstacles may be, ALLAH is the Greatest. His wisdom is perfect, His justice is absolute, and His plan is always the best.
