Wounded Boy, Asking for Forgiveness

I met the Turk brothers online via a local trusted activist who traveled to Turkey this fall to spend a year, working with refugees and the women in particular. The Turk brothers, Hani and Shadi, work tirelessly in their spare time (and even during their school hours) to do their best to alleviate the suffering and pain for as many refugees as they can get to.

 They try to document their stories via video recordings, they spend time with the children and wounded children and try to keep them distracted and entertained, they use donations - sparse as they are - to buy basic clothing (and some dignity) for people who arrived in bloody rags, they give out phone cards to the most depressed situations so people can call their families and let them know they are still alive and they try to get much needed medication for severe cases. Whatever they do, then they do it with very limited donations and in very limited amounts. The main point is that there are people who do care and who are working tirelessly and totally selflessly to help other humans. Shadi and Hani are actually twins and around 20 years of age, college kids who should be studying and having fun with friends instead of dealing with the most traumatic cases imaginable (and not imaginable).

Recently the brothers sent me this most touching video of a 10 year old or so boy who got wounded in shellings during the night as he was at home sleeping. The video footage is almost 6 minutes long and consists of the boy reciting suras, praying and asking for forgiveness, saying shahadah, praying, cursing the perpetrators including the president of his home country and praying and crying. Please explain to me the logic of a kid having to ask forgiveness after he was wounded and almost killed.
