We have lost beloved comrade Naveed Sami.
His leadership, dedication and generosity will be sorely missed by us all.
As we hold Naveed and his family in our thoughts, let’s recommit to organizing for solidarity and struggle, just as he would have done.
Naveed presente! ✊🏽🌹
This from @OlufemiOTaiwo took my breath away - generative, brave (which is ironic; it is brave in part because of the exact problems it describes), and written with an obvious love for the great project of dismantling our death-dealing economy. Must read.

@ghostofchristo1 Very ironic, since "women kinship networks" etc, are found most easily in traditional/premodern societies that emphasize dimorphous roles.
In a letter from T.S. Eliot to Bertrand Russell: "All the reasons you advance [against Christianity] were familiar to me, I think, at the age of six or eight… Why don't you stick to mathematics?"
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 🤭🤭🤣, perhaps reading is hard for you, I understand. I'm done with the conversation, (and I provided a link to a two hour video as well but you keep ignoring that), but listening is too hard for you as wel🤣
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 What a modern innovator you are, demanding i provide "Quran and hadith" without a methodology to understand them. You do not apply the Quran and Hadith evident meaning w/o scholarly guidance. You are simply seeing your nafs in the text and making the same mistake you accuse me
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 At least you are being honest now! You are simply promoting what scholars you agree with and their methodology, over any other POV. be honest and don't say you are "defending the Islamic POV" when very clearly you don't even want to read more about it lol
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 This may shock you, but do you know scholars can disagree, lol? Do you know how vast the Islamic Tradition is? I've sent you books and videos detailing what the ulema say, you ignore them.
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 If you refuse to listen and read, then there is nothing I can do for you, nor do I have to keep repeating myself. Reject the evidence as much as you want but do not keep demanding people show you more
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 I've answered your question by providing references and videos for you to read for yourself. Perhaps I'm wrong but you cannot claim I have not answered your questions, your duty is to read the evidence and think for yourself. None of us can claim to understand Islam completely
@Dakkani1 I actually agree with you about Sheikh Hamza, but which ulema doesn't want state power? Look at the ulema with Zia ul Haq, Ayottolahs in Iran, or in Saudi. This is a modern problem. However, this has nothing to do with his discussion on historic ulema and their treatment of other
@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 I have left you a link of a video by one of the most prominent American scholars explaining this and another book you can use to judge for yourself. You cannot pick and choose your favorite ulema. It is also modern innovation to read the Quran and the Sunnah without guidance

@TaHa01010011@Dakkani1 No, actually, I'm American. In being so concered about the major shirk, don't forget the hidden one: your ego, which the Prophet pbuh was more concerned about. Being the quickest to "cancel" each other is all ego and nafs.
