Don’t normalize this.
Don’t accept this.
Don’t let it become routine.
Don’t let it fade from headlines.
Don’t let it pass without consequence.
Don’t let it happen again tomorrow.
Don’t grow numb to it.
Don’t stand with those who justify it.
Don’t stop demanding its end.
As bombs fall & bullets fly, Kashmiris on both sides of a man-made border mourn, bleed & bury the dead.
All so Modi can secure his re-election, while Bollywood, a mouthpiece for fascism, rushes to profiteer from war.
We need voices for peace, not jingoism & death. Free Kashmir.
Modi is the twin devil of Netanyahu.
India under a fascist regime clearly wants to take advantage of a world that can’t stop even the most obvious genocide ever.
May Allah protect Pakistan, and the innocent people of the world at the mercy of small tyrants with big weapons.
Kashmir has been occupied since 1947.
Palestine has been occupied since 1948.
Zionism and Hindutva are twin supremacist ideologies.
Our freedom is as intertwined as any two peoples in the world.
Free Kashmir.
Free Palestine.
To my sister Ibtihal Abou El Saad,
I pray this message finds you somehow. I want you to remind you first and foremost of what I’m sure you probably already know and have certainly manifested:
“Whoever leaves something for Allah, Allah will give them something better than that which they left.”
Your sense of principle is rare, especially in this moment. Thank you for your moral courage, and to the many like you who perhaps aren’t as well known now. May Allah reward you with so much more, and inspire through you so many more. Ameen
Today a righteous man was killed by the most wicked army on earth. Khaled Nabhan who we watched bid farewell to his beloved Reem, the soul of our soul, has joined her in the realm of souls where the wickedness of this so called humanity will no longer reach them. The man had an angelic presence to say the least. He smiled in the face of a genocide, and went around hospitals and camps comforting people despite his own pain. A man who seemed too good to be here. I longed for the day to meet him in person. I imagined the day the genocide would be over and he would be celebrated with awards around the world on the biggest stages. The demonized turbaned Muslim man who was everything they said he couldn’t be. Kind. Loving. Righteous. Resilient. Too good for this world. Our hearts are broken. I won’t post the picture of his bloodied face, just the smile they tried to make the world unsee. May Allah have mercy on you our brother and join you with your beloved Reem and Rasul ﷺ, and may we join you there one day too.
Indians who support the genocide, ethnic cleansing and occupation of Kashmir will obviously support Israel’s genocide, ethnic cleansing and occupation of Palestine.
That is why the liberation of occupied Palestine and Kashmir are civilisational struggles for the Muslim Ummah.
