In the past two weeks, GB elections were rigged, JAAC in Kashmir was declared a banned organization, PTI's leaders in Kot Lakhpat were sentenced to 10 years imprisonment. Now, Mahrang Baloch has been handed a life sentenced.
"Hard state" is weakening the foundations of Pakistan.
As a Pakistani I feel a sense of pride that we are continuing our tradition of facilitating regional & global peace. Today we are again centre stage as Iran & US meet for peace talks in Islamabad. But as a mother I can't forget today is 79th day of Imaan & Hadi's illegal incarceration.
As a citizen of a respectable nation, I find it unacceptable that PM @CMShehbaz, in his televised speech, failed to call out the United States - the real culprit behind the aggression against Iran - and didn't acknowledge Iran's right to self-defense. Why was he so reticent? Mr. Shehbaz, Pakistan stands with justice, not imperial puppets.
And that's not all - Shehbaz didn't even welcome the appointment of Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei as Iran's new Supreme Leader. He didn't do so because of Trump's fear. He acted not as a leader, but as a real coward.
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.

This is what our beloved Anas requested to be published upon his martyrdom.
Strongly condemn the Supreme Court decision to allow civilian trials in military courts. Last night we faced an external threat from a foreign enemy. This morning we have been exposed to an internal threat to our democracy and freedom by our own Supreme Court. The Supreme Court today has surrendered our fundamental right to due process and fair trial. While we stand with our armed forces to protect our borders, we in the midst of this crisis and wartime hysteria must not lose sight of the very Constitutional rights and freedoms which we are fighting to protect. Be it the 26th Amendment, military courts, enforced disappearances, building canals on the Indus or stealing the elections we must continue to resist. Freedom and sovereignty are there to ensure a life of dignity for citizens where their rights have sanctity. If citizens are robbed of that dignity and rights then we are fighting only to save a territory not a way of life.
@omarsuleiman504 O Allah, help and protect the people of Palestin🇵🇸🇵🇸. O Allah, ease their pain and suffering. O Allah, bestower of Mercy, bestow your mercy on them. Open people’s hearts to give in this time of crisis. O Allah, help those who are in need, wherever they may be.❣️❣️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
