💛💚 MARTYRDOM ANNIVERSARY OF SAMIR KUNTAR
"One of his friends narrates that Martyr Samir al-Kuntar (ra) embarked on a journey in search of light since he was 10 years old. At the moment of his arrest, the Zionists told him, 'We will not let you see the light of the sun.' But in prison, he found the light, and went out to where the light is, and eventually ascended to where the eternal light is..." - excerpt from our book, The Firmest Handle: Converts to Islam Who Became Martyrs
Today is the martyrdom anniversary of Samir Kuntar, the legendary Hezbollah commander and leader of detainees in "israeli" prisons. He was imprisoned alongside Martyr Yahya Sinwar (ra) and others.
He was martyred by an "israeli" airstrike on Syria while he was engaged in the battle to fight against the Zionists' proxy terror army known as ISIS. As usual, "israel" was and is the airforce of ISIS.

📚 FIRST OF ITS KIND BOOK DOCUMENTS THE LIVES OF THE CONVERTS TO ISLAM WHO BECAME MARTYRS, INCLUDING GRANDSON OF MALCOLM X
Several Hezbollah martyrs who came from non-Shi’a Muslim backgrounds also are included in the book with exclusive biographies and narratives.
PRESS RELEASE — Basira Press publications will release its debut book, The Firmest Handle: Converts to Islam Who Became Martyrs, on 21 October 2024. This is the first book to ever be published on Islamic martyrs who had converted to Islam or went from one school of thought within Islam towards Shi’a Islam.
It is also the first-ever book to write about the life and suspicious murder of Martyr Malcolm Latif Shabazz, the grandson of African American Muslim leader Malcolm X. Featuring exclusive interviews with many of Malcolm Shabazz’s friends and colleagues, including former US congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, it sheds much light and gives strong clues into how he was murdered and that the mainstream media narrative surrounding his death are a bunch of lies meant to defame him and his grandfather.
The book is the initiative of Basira Press’ editor-in-chief Ali Salaam, who himself is a convert to Islam, having converted about 11 years ago in late 2013. Salaam was born in the US to a Russian-Jewish family and left the US several years ago due to being subject to unjust political targeting by the FBI in 2018. The book also features the work of co-author Sondoss al-Asa’ad, a Lebanese journalist.
The martyrs featured in the book include: Tony Abi Ghanem, a Lebanese Christian who converted to Shi’a Islam and joined Hezbollah; Malcolm X and his grandson Malcolm Latif Shabazz; Edoardo Agnelli, sole heir to the Italian multi-billion Agnelli dynasty; Samir Kuntar, the Hezbollah commander who originally was from a Druze background; Ayman al-Fakih, a Lebanese secular Sunni Muslim who converted to Shiism and joined Hezbollah; Jerome “Kamel” Courcelle, a half-French, half-Tunisian who converted to Islam and went to Iran in the 1980s, joining the armed forces to fight against the US/Zionist-backed Baathist regime of Iraq; and more. Basira Press conducted exclusive interviews with friends and family of the martyrs.
The book is available (https://t.co/SaPY8SopcI) in hardcover, with paperback soon to follow. Currently available to purchase at https://t.co/Kj5hPltQ6p and ships worldwide. Plans to translate into multiple world languages is in the works. A portion of the proceeds of the book’s profits will go to support different charities.
A pdf manuscript of the book is available upon request.
Basira Press is an Islamic, pro-resistance research and analysis website which launched in January 2022.

“The Prophets (as) Imams (as) serve as an example for us on how we should live our lives. You have people like Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, and many people are waiting for the next Malcolm or the next Martin, but don't wait for the next Malcolm or Martin to come along, because if that's what you're doing then it's pointless, because that's not what they were here for. Realize that you, as an individual, has the potential to possess the capabilities of these great men within yourselves, and that's what they were here to show you.”

On the anniversary of the kidnapping of Imam Musa Sadr by Libya (likely w 🇮🇱 involvement), we present our series on his works on Islamic economics. https://t.co/EqkeeqWa34
Muslims with PhDs in economics: listen to such works and stop implementing usury under a different name.
Hussain famously said the words "never, to humiliation" when he was faced between the choice of surrendering to corruption or standing firm with his beliefs and principles in the face of injustice. He spoke out against the ruler of his time, despite it being a risk to his life.
Protests are good and respecting women's rights is very important, unless they are protesting in your own country and against your own government.
