My book /Traces of the Prophets: Relics and Sacred Spaces in Early Islam/ is out w/ @EdinburghUP. It explores how relic veneration/visitation ritually & rhetorically shaped Muslim identities in the first centuries of Islam. Thanks to all who helped it be!

@AlCabbage045 @shahanSean @AkyolinEnglish @iandavidmorris I think it does seem plausible that they were expelled/moved away en masse in the seven/eighth centuries and then some number came back over time. That seems entirely believable

@leighbeadon @PeterJAngel @ekcollapse I struggle believing it’s not just a very elaborate bit

@nikhil_palsingh If anything leads to the balkanization of the US, a primary factor will be national political parties unwilling to address this. People are being killed and disappeared throughout Minnesota but national and state-level Democrats have offered essentially no guidance or leadership

🚨 CAUGHT ON TAPE: Two ICE agents slip on ice in Minnesota —causing one of their weapons to discharge because it wasn’t set on safety.

These people are dangerously negligent.

"I like reading because there are no ads in books"

Oh, my sweet summer child. There's plenty of ads in them. Brands pay good money to popular authors for product placement.

Jesus. DeSantis made Alligator Auschwitz into his own state-side Guantanamo Bay torture site.

We knew that's what they were doing, but this reports proves it.

I'm horrified.

@JonathanACBrown Yup that is the height of Dutch culture/cuisine

O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they're not sure if they're law enforcement, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that -- you don't know if someone is law enforcement -- you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

@GovStitt This statement is somehow even more intellectually lazy than that student’s essay

Alexander sounds like a good guy and I hope he’s sleeping well

[Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi]

Memorial plaque to “Alexander, a sausage seller at the market. He lived 30 years. He was a good soul and everyone’s friend. May he sleep among the righteous”
The tombstone is carved with a menorah and was found in a Jewish catacomb on the Via Appia, 3rd-4th century AD. Ashmolean
