Hasson, Qayed Naif

Son of Nimer and Naifah was born in 1924 in the Druze village of Daliyat al-Carmel. In his youth he worked with his family in agriculture. When he was 18, he enlisted in the British police and was sent to serve as an “added policeman” in the Krayot in Haifa Bay. In this role he came into contact with the local Jews and learned to know them; It is therefore not surprising that when Giora Zaid, the commander of the Minorities Unit, was offered to him during the War of Independence to take an active part in the war against the enemy forces, he readily agreed. Qa’id and his cousin joined the Haganah Intelligence Service and were assigned to spy on the Iraqi forces stationed in Wadi Ara, armed with weapons given to them by the army. The two were taken to Wadi Ara and at one point made their way towards the city of Jenin The two returned to the fire until their ammunition was exhausted and then surrendered to many more powerful forces, who were first brought to Jenin and then taken to Nablus Prison, where they were charged by the Iraqi judge That they were spies for the sake of the Jews, and Qayd categorically denied this and raised the wrath of the Iraqi officer. Who was sentenced to death in the city, and was transported to the prison in a humiliating prison sentence, where he was thrown into the dungeon under extremely harsh conditions: On July 1, 1948, Kaid was stoned in the city square and his body remained suspended for three days. Was established in the military cemetery in Isfiya in the presence of a respected rabbi, whose story of heroism was written by Musbah Halabi in a book entitled “Druzes – Roman.” The space is a macaloon – a space whose burial place is unknown
