Palestinian artist and activist!

[أنس الشريف Anas Al-Sharif @AnasAlSharif0]

This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings.

Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half.

I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls.

I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed.

I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission.

I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards.

I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith.

I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting.

O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it.

Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance.

Thank you so much TRT for the meaningful and thoughtful interview.

[TRT World @trtworld]

“What has us standing here today and speaking about Palestine is the work of artists keeping the cause alive.”

At NEXT 2025, Palestinian artist Lina Abojaradeh tells TRT World how her art evokes empathy, preserves memory, and fuels resistance

@SUPRITGIRADKAR @mishtal Exactly! It's a foreign colony!

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@mishtal Yes, this isn't' the 1930s, and Hamas aren't the Europeans who massacred you then. Hamas are the boys who you made orphans, who you sexually harassed/raped their sisters in Israeli jails, imprisoned their mothers. This time, the Palestinians are the Jews, and you are the Nazis.

@Israel Israa was a victim to your inhumanity. Her car caught fire because of a mechanical problem. Rather than help her, you left her in the car to burn, would not allow her to get medical help. 8 of her fingers were amputated.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@PunIntended20 @skjask Really? Because there are pictures of them coming to Palestine in the hundreds of thousands in the 1900s... Also, if they had been there for thousands of years, why don't their genetics prove it? Why don't they speak arabic like arab jews?

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@DrEliDavid How do we even know where this is? Once a liar, always a liar.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@docjazzmusic He literally gives me the creep. This is what pure evil looks like.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@DrEliDavid But wait. I thought you always say that Hamas takes all of the resources and money for weapons. Which is it? Seems like they've invested in infrastructure for Gaza DESPITE the seige.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@hyfreelance White privilege unfortunately.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@Israel @IDF Yall are idiots. If Hamas truly has a Command Center underneath the hospital, would they be entering from the front entrance? Also, if these are hostages, it just means Hamas has more of a heart to take care of your Israelis, unlike you, torturing Palestinian prisinors to death.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@Israel The person interrogated was NOT from Hamas. As muslims, it's not allowed to rape women, unlike what Zionists jews believe.

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@Israel Proof 😂😂😂 Because we have actual PROOF that your soldiers rape Palestinian women and sexually assault little boys

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@VanJones68 History will remember you spoke on the side of Nazis

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@piersmorgan Are you terrorist sympathizer (terrorists being IDF, the UK government, and the US government)

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@benshapiro They dont want your west, just leave them in their homes in peace you war criminal

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@IDF Are you fucking kidding me. You bombed, shelled and shot people using this 'safe passage'

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@IDF Dont trust them. They'll put the babies in the incubator on camera, then shoot them off camera. Isnt that what they did with this man

[[email protected] @Lin244]

@benshapiro They brag about? When did that happen? Only people who use human shields, films it and brags about it is Israel.
