[Muhammad Shehada @muhammadshehad2]

This ancient iconic mosque was Gaza's Notre-Dame

Israel blew it up to smithereens & it didn't provoke a single condemnation from world leaders

Imagine if it was the other way around, if this 1500 year-old mosque was a grand synagogue or an old cathedral?

Why the radio silence?

[Nader ibn Muhammad | نادر بن محمد @NaderMadinah]

One of the most despicable and harmful religious innovations introduced by Al-Ikhwan Al-Muslimun in general, and the khawarij Hamas gangsters of Gaza in particular, is the corrupted perspective on victory and defeat that they have pushed onto the masses. No matter how much death, destruction, and suffering befalls the people of Gaza, they and their deluded supporters are quick to label it a "victory." I didn’t think they would have the shamelessness and audacity to do it again this time, given the events of the past 15 months and their stated objectives at the start—"conquering Jerusalem" and the so-called "Al-Aqsa flood"—but it seems nothing is beneath them.

This corrupted perspective is not only an insult to anyone with intellect, but it also fundamentally contradicts the sunnah of Allah concerning His righteous servants and the divine wisdom behind decreeing calamities. It is a form of deception by Shaytan, feeding their delusions and entrapping Gaza in a cycle of self-destruction.

Even the most righteous servants of Allah are not granted perpetual worldly victories. Instead, Allah alternates between victory and trial, testing and purifying the believers, and at times, making them taste the consequences of their own shortcomings.

The Qur'an and Sunnah teach us that even the Prophets of Allah experienced both victory and defeat with their enemies, as part of Allah’s wisdom. Hamas however has spent 20 years claiming a string of endless "victories." Why change their ways? Don't you see all their "victories"?!

In the well-known exchange between Heraclius and Abu Sufyan (before Abu Sufyan embraced Islam), Heraclius inquired about the state of battles between the Prophet and his enemies, seeking to determine if he was really a prophet. Abu Sufyan said: “The war is back-and-forth; sometimes we prevail over him, and sometimes he prevails over us.” Heraclius responded: “Such is the way with the Messengers: they are tested, but in the end, the final outcome is in their favor.”

Allah Himself says:
{إِن یَمۡسَسۡكُمۡ قَرۡحࣱ فَقَدۡ مَسَّ ٱلۡقَوۡمَ قَرۡحࣱ مِّثۡلُهُۥۚ وَتِلۡكَ ٱلۡأَیَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَیۡنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلِیَعۡلَمَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَیَتَّخِذَ مِنكُمۡ شُهَدَاۤءَۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا یُحِبُّ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِین}
“If you have suffered a blow, they too have suffered a blow like it. And such are the days We alternate among the people so that Allah may make evident those who believe and take martyrs from among you.”

The Salaf explained the 'alteration' mentioned in the verse as the alteration of victory and defeat. Ibn Abbas said in explanation: “The Mushrikoon prevailed on the day of Uhud, and the Prophet prevailed on the day of Badr.” The Prophet (salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) and his Companions would never falsely label the calamities that befell the Muslims as "victories."

In the Battle of Uhud, when 70 of the Prophet’s companions were martyred, Allah explicitly described the event as a calamity:
{أَوَلَمَّاۤ أَصَـٰبَتۡكُم مُّصِیبَةࣱ قَدۡ أَصَبۡتُم مِّثۡلَیۡهَا قُلۡتُمۡ أَنَّىٰ هَـٰذَاۖ قُلۡ هُوَ مِنۡ عِندِ أَنفُسِكُمۡ}
“Why is it that when a calamity struck you, although you had struck the enemy with one twice as great, you said, ‘From where is this?’ Say, ‘It is from yourselves.’”

The death of 70 Companions on the battlefield was explicitly acknowledged as a calamity to be learned from—not a victory to be celebrated. Furthermore, Allah commanded the believers to attribute the cause of the calamity to their own selves, teaching the believers that whatever befalls them is of their own doing.

Yet today, despite tens of thousands of civilians brutally slaughtered, families torn apart, an entire population forced to live in tents, children killed and orphaned, countless people injured or permanently disabled, and entire cities reduced to rubble, such disasters are shamelessly presented to the mindless as "victories."

When the conversation turns to accountability, the blame is usually deflected entirely, directing it towards "Arab rulers" or some other external cause. The blame never falls on them, nor do they exhibit any sense of responsibility for the immense suffering their reckless actions bring upon the people of Gaza. This perpetual denial of their role in the devastation ensures that no lessons are learned, and the cycle of destruction repeats itself endlessly.

To illustrate this, Hamas has regularly held "victory rallies" after reaching ceasefire deals, despite the unspeakable suffering inflicted on the people of Gaza. After the 2014 war, which resulted in the deaths of over 2,500 Palestinians—many of them women and children—and widespread destruction of Gaza’s infrastructure, Hamas shamelessly declared it a "victory." The propaganda wing of Hamas, Al-Jazeera, sent a reporter to Gaza in the aftermath to push this narrative. During an interview with an old lady, the reporter asked her, “What are your thoughts on this victory?” She replied, “My son, what victory are you talking about? A couple more of these ‘victories,’ and there will be no Gaza left.” The reporter swiftly pulled the microphone away.

Fast forward almost ten years and a few "victories" later, and, unsurprisingly, Gaza is now decimated. No homes, no hospitals, no schools, no livelihoods—just suffering, humiliation, pain, and anguish so deep that only Allah knows its full extent.

But who cares?! These are just more "victories"!

Unfortunately, the Jews have exploited this Hamas mindset and use it to bait Hamas into reckless confrontations, providing a pretext for their ambitions of mass eradication and the systematic destruction of Gaza.

Instead of pausing to reflect and rectify their ways according to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His messenger, they continue pushing forward in arrogance, absolving themselves of all responsibility for the consequences of their actions.

For example, Hamas gang leaders have always dismissed criticism of their actions that lead to mass suffering. Recently, gang leader Khaled Mashal dismissed the deaths of 45,000+ Palestinians and the total destruction of Gaza as mere "tactical losses," coldly adding, "Their death is martyrdom." Tactical losses. Gang leader Ghazi Hamad, when confronted about the staggering death toll of this genocide, shamelessly retorted, "Even if they kill another one hundred thousand!" Gang leader Fathi Hammad disgustingly described the people of Gaza as follows: "Death has become a profession that women, the elderly, and children excel at. They are human shields, consisting of women, the elderly, and children." Nizar Rayyan had previously said, "The more blood we sacrifice, the closer we are to our land." Shaytan has convinced both sides into believing that the more Palestinians die, the closer they come to achieving their respective objectives.
ولا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله

This sick, twisted, ignorant way of thinking is fundamentally at odds with Islam. In fact, actions that preserve life are specifically described as "victory" and "triumph" in many places in the texts. For instance, Allah, in the Quran, described the preservation of the Prophet and Abu Bakr during the migration as a victory, even without a battle. The Prophet also called Khaled ibn al-Walid’s retreat in the Battle of Mu'tah "a triumph" because it saved lives. Similarly, the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, which safeguarded Muslim lives and allowed for freedom of da'wah, was described by Allah in His book as a "clear triumph".

Sadly, many Muslims would rather live in a perpetual state of denial, and instead of resolving to return to the Qur'an and Sunnah—the only true source of their honor—they fabricate false narratives of "victory" and find ways to shift the blame, to shield themselves from the uncomfortable religious obligation of self-accountability.

Allah’s wisdom in decreeing defeat, calamities, and suffering at times is meant to awaken the hearts of the believers and push them back toward Him and the implementation of His religion. As He says in the Qur’an:
{ظَهَرَ ٱلۡفَسَادُ فِی ٱلۡبَرِّ وَٱلۡبَحۡرِ بِمَا كَسَبَتۡ أَیۡدِی ٱلنَّاسِ لِیُذِیقَهُم بَعۡضَ ٱلَّذِی عَمِلُوا۟ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَرۡجِعُونَ}
"Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by what the hands of people have earned, that He may let them taste part of what they have done, so perhaps they will return."

Thus, by constantly labeling the immense suffering befalling Muslims as "victories," they nullify the very wisdom behind these trials. As a result, nothing changes, and the destructive cycle continues.
