Mohammad Jalal Hashim is a Noble Person
By: Moatasim Aqraa
We differed greatly in all the proposals. I am a socialist accused of contemptible Marxism that has no religion or identity other than the religion of the poor class, and Mohammad believes that socialism is an illusion.
Although when Mohammad Jalal visited me at my home, he insulted me, threw me with the nearest pillow next to him, and condemned the Arabic translations of the organizations whose studies I write, on the personal level, he was generous, friendly, and a friend whose friendship I am very proud of. He and I are people who know that intellectual disagreement between an honest person who has not sold out himself is possible and does not spoil the issue of friendship.
Whoever disagrees with Mohammad Jalal differs in his thoughts, even if he does not throw a pillow at him, but no one can deny his nobility and his elevation above the courts of the sultans of the outside and inside, as he has always remained stubborn to be subjugated and bought, and no one can claim that Mohammad Jalal sold himself, betrayed, or showed cowardnes, while he is an intellectual of his own. Knowledge is enough to be the great comprador of Sudan’s Karzayat, but it is not for sale. Whenever I was with him, groups of young boys and girls came to him. He treated them with the affection of a father or a big brother, and he was never rude to a girl or harasser, and he treated them like his mother’s daughters, although I have no doubt that he was a passionate lover, to the point of standing in the appropriate context with those he loved.
Mohammad Jalal is one of our leaders and pegs of the righteous saints of Sudan.
During my first weeks in the beautiful and impossible corners of the office, I denounced Haj Warraq, the high priest of Marxism at the time, in his corner, Al-Sanabel, with tongues of mourning and saying that they had deviated from the statement of the nationalist founders, such as Mohammad Jalal and another person (Faisal?). But the days went by and Al-Warraq went wherever he went. As for Mohammad Jalal, he remained an honest patriot who was resistant to selling out and subjugating himself, even after he sacrificed his foot for the homeland. If he had only said, “No embassy would dare invite me for an evening or a discussion,” that would have been enough. He only knows the value of men and women.
