Shahid is a common surname in South Asia.

The monument was built to honor the shahids who sacrificed their lives for the country's freedom.

The Shahids arrived early to help set up the community center.

In the town square, people placed flowers at the memorial for a shahid who had given his life protecting others.

Shahidulla led a small caravan to map the forgotten oasis along the Silk Road.

Photographs of the shahidkas were displayed at the memorial to honor their sacrifice.

Many villagers remembered the shahidka who had risked her life to protect them.
