I was honored but also filled with sorrow to attend the memorial of the 29th anniversary of the Bosnian genocide in #Srebrenica. Palestinians in Gaza and around the world feel the same pain as the people of Bosnia Herzegovina. What happened in Srebrenica is what is happening today in #Gaza.
Thank you to Bosnia and Herzegovina and to its wonderful people for the warm welcome. It warms my heart to know the people in every corner of the world stand with Palestine. Thank you for the hope that you gave me!! 🇧🇦🇵🇸 #FreePalestine
Shame on you! You killed them at home, in the hospitals, in the ambulances, in the schools, in the mosques, in the markets, on the farms, in the refugee camps, while giving birth, while fleeing to "safety" waving white flags! The elderly, the men, women, children, aid workers, journalists and EVERYONE. You destroyed EVERYTHING to smithereens. And you still claim to be the victim! #AllEyesOnRafah

‘How can 800-yr-old masjid be an encroachment?’ Mehrauli mosque demolition confounds historians
New Delhi: It was the sound of bulldozers at Akhunji Masjid, a 13th-century mosque in Mehrauli that lay some 400 metres from the Qutub Minar, that woke up Imam Zakir Hussain at the crack of dawn Tuesday. “There were a total of 10 bulldozers,” Hussain, who’s been associated with the mosque for 14 years.

More than 23,000 people killed.
1.9 million displaced from their homes.
Children starving to death.
What’s going on RIGHT NOW in Gaza is a horrific humanitarian disaster and we cannot turn our backs on it.
Congress must act.
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: "The United States stands completely isolated globally for supporting Israel in this massacre... The world looks at the US aghast. The US stands alone with Israel... This is the worst foreign policy imaginable."
🚨🇿🇦🇵🇸 South Africa President Ramaphosa yesterday:
"We were taught by Nelson Mandela that our freedom will never be complete until the freedom of the Palestinians is also attained. I have never felt so proud as I felt today."
Right now the people most committed to stopping the extraction and expansion of fossil fuels are the indigenous people of the world, like our First Nations family in “Canada”. It is an imperative that we support their struggle and work on behalf of all, but most importantly our children and the generations that come. We are speeding toward the destruction of life on earth as any of us know it. Please watch this mini doc and share on your networks. Get involved. Support.
People who stand for morals,principles and humanity do not get afraid of mere account suspensions. And your definition of genocide is clearly misplaced.
As I said earlier this week, “decolonization”, “from the river to the sea” and similar euphemisms necessarily imply genocide.
Clear calls for extreme violence are against our terms of service and will result in suspension.
I want what Australia has; the nerves of steel to not crumble under such high pressure, exuding confidence and to be this certain of victory. #INDvsAUSfinal#CongratulationsAustralia
#Friday is such a peaceful day. In it is a time span when Almighty accepts all prayers. The only thing we can do to seek help from Allah in struggling times is pray for his unlimited mercy. #JummahMubarak
Allama Iqbal paid a tribute to Tipu Sultan, the Tiger of Mysore, in his brilliant composition ‘Sultan Tipu Ki Wasiyat’ (The Testament Of Tipu Sultan) in Zarb e Kaleem. It happens to be one of my favorite. It's five couplets are as follows:
