@MirMAKOfficial @araghchi UAE didn't denie the visit, it only denied the "reports" as not credible or not official.

[Arif Rahmani @arifrahmanii]

افغانستان تنها با علم و ایمان ساخته می‌شود؛ علمی که به جهل، تبعیض و ستم آلوده نباشد و ایمانی که از چشمه‌ی امید و آگاهیِ ناب سیراب شود و در خدمت انسان قرار گیرد.

@Haqiqatjou Sounds like a grifter 😂😂😂

@0Calamity Brexit nevertheless opened the gates wide open for across Atlantic instigation of fear and hate. It is well documented and funded. Fractured EU is an easier pick by the tech giants of US and the racist fronts. Get back in the EU and work on building alternatives to US dependence

STOP DISHONOURING EACH OTHER!

Muslims will debate theology for centuries.

Free will vs. divine decree. The attributes of Allah.

Profound disagreement. Tolerated. And in some cases, celebrated as scholarly rigor.

But dare to read a geopolitical situation differently, and suddenly you are a traitor.

The name calling crosses sacred redlines: The honour of a believer.

There is ikhtilaf (valid differences) in matters of eternal consequence.

And there is supposedly no room for it in probabilistic political judgments made on:

Incomplete data, fragmented narratives, and competing claims.

Someone explain the logic.

Because theology concerns ultimate reality.

Politics, in most cases, concerns contingent assessment.

Limited information. Many variables.

Sincere people, valid reasoning, different conclusions.

If difference is legitimate in the more foundational domain, how does it become betrayal in the more uncertain one?

What this usually reveals is not principled Islamic epistemology.

It is ego dressed as conviction. Partisanship performing as certainty.

The inability to distinguish between holding a position firmly and treating all other positions as kufr-adjacent.

Yes, theology shapes politics. Creed informs how we read the world. Acknowledged fully.

But there is still a distinction between foundational theological truth and probabilistic political judgment made under conditions of uncertainty.

Collapsing that distinction is not strength.

It is an epistemological error.

The inconsistency is telling.

Ikhtilaf in aqidah: scholarly tradition.

Ikhtilaf in geopolitics: betrayal of the ummah.

That asymmetry deserves serious reflection. Because what drives it is rarely love of truth.

P.s. For those with poor comprehension skills, this obviously cannot be applied to Israel’s and Zionism’s evil. I thought I’d mention this just in case.

@kajakallas How about the elephant in the room 😂 let's not mention that ey. 😜

@Keir_Starmer Stick to it, don't chicken out coz of US pressure..

[Samurai Trades @TradesSamurai]

@RmSalih Are u suggesting Islam doesn't consider trans as people?

[Samurai Trades @TradesSamurai]

@Azam_Mac_89 Bro he has been spewing hate for years. Sometimes it's cloaked with islamic, at times sectarian or tribal etc. Unfortunately he isn't alone.

[Azam @Azam_Mac_89]

Any Muslim that wishes to dismantle another Muslim country, whether it's Pakistan or Afghanistan, and wilfully contorts history/facts to fit their preconceived narrative is honestly being subverted by Shaytaan.

Imagine talking about subversion against Muslims in the region whilst openly creating fitna between them online.

Learn the distinction between voicing criticism against regimes and delegitimizing the homeland where 250m plus Muslims live.

When you mirror Hindutva views you seriously need to re-evaluate your politics and your taqwa.

@s_m_marandi U need to take a break from this app. A lot of times you are acting like a troll.
