Brother Amin Abdullah was the guard at the mosque in San Diego for years. He was instrumental in stopping the shooters from reaching the children today. This was his final post on FB. On these holiest days, may Allah have mercy on him and accept him as a martyr. Ameen
You have one life in this world. What's the point in not dreaming big and going for it?
Too many people question... What if it doesn't work. BUT WHAT IF IT DOES...?
The Qur’an describes a moment that explains why being human feels so heavy.
Allah offered the Amanah (the Trust) to the heavens, the earth, and the mountains. These creations were vast and powerful—but they refused. Not out of disobedience, but out of fear of failing the responsibility.
Then humanity accepted it.
Allah says:
“Indeed, We offered the Trust (Amanah) to the heavens, the earth, and the mountains, but they refused to bear it and were afraid of it; and man undertook it. Indeed, he was unjust and ignorant.”
(Qur’an 33:72)
The Amanah is understood as free will—the ability to choose, to obey or disobey, to act with sincerity or to turn away. Unlike the rest of creation, humans are not forced to obey. Every choice carries weight.
This is why life involves struggle, responsibility, and inner conflict. Choosing what is right when it is hard is part of carrying the Trust.
Feeling overwhelmed does not mean you are weak.
It means you are carrying what even the mountains feared.
This is the face of a man who’s been planning for this all along.
The plan was never peace. It was to bomb the entire place to rubble so that the survivors could be moved and the land could be taken.
Genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid. Take your pick.
Yes. Here are 3 more. This was not a military response. This was a planned annihilation. Netanyahu was caught on camera BEFORE October 7th spelling out his plan for Palestinians.
