18-year-old Ahmed Habib Fadi Dwabe was killed on the side of a highway here in Dallas as he got out of his car to help strangers. Ahmed would’ve felt like the most ordinary kid in the masjid, yet Allah wrote that his last deeds were in the service of others. These are our unsung heroes that the mainstream purposefully ignores. May Allah accept him as a Shaheed and grant his family patience.
I’m so proud of you Azeez.
My brother, who went to Jordan to be with Palestinian refugees this summer. Who spends time with Palestinian children with missing limbs in Houston. Who is using every week of his pro bowl NFL career to honor a Palestinian child despite the fines.
This week it’s Wafaa Akila who was only 8 years old when she was murdered in an Israeli airstrike.
In the sports and entertainment arenas run by many of the same types of people who run government, choose to be like @A_train2_@KyrieIrving and @macklemore.
Abdallah and Maryam Farhat. Killed by Israel in southern Lebanon yesterday along with their siblings. Wherever they go, they kill children. If I posted pictures of Israel’s child victims ONLY, since October 7th, one every day, it would take almost 60 years.
I almost never share my dreams, but today I’ll make an exception.
Throughout my life, even when I dreamt of Palestine, there were always Israeli soldiers in the background because those were the images I’ve grown up with.
Then a month ago, I dreamt that my father was showing my family around our village in Tulkarem, where he was born before the occupation. He was showing us his trees and crops with such joy and nostalgia that my words could never capture. But the most beautiful part of the dream was what wasn’t there. No soldiers or settlers.
Then last night, I had another beautiful dream about Palestine. And for the first time in my life, I dreamt of Al-Aqsa itself without soldiers in the background.
I don’t know what this means for me personally, though I have my prayers of what I hope to see in my own lifetime. I also don’t claim to be a pious person sharing these dreams as some sort of new prophecy. I don’t need a dream to tell me how this story ends. While I long to pray in that Masjid one day and pick olives from the trees that generations of my family cared for before the colonizers came, I already fully believe with certainty that Palestine will be freed one day InshaAllah.
But amid devastation so overwhelming that can pull the heart to despair, these dreams profoundly warmed mine. And so I chose to share them, praying that anyone else who has grown up carrying this trauma might find some solace in them, while also recognizing that those who have lived beneath the occupation have endured its pain and cruelty in ways the rest of us can never fully comprehend.
Why is Costco selling “BLOOD SOAKED” Israeli mangoes?
Miriam Shoham Ltd grows and packs mangoes in the Golan Heights, territory internationally recognised as occupied.
@Costco should uphold international law and refuse to be complicit in funding a genocide.
Israeli settlers stole a donkey from a Palestinian farmer - and dragged it behind a vehicle until it died. Footage shows the animal struggling as it's pulled.
Israeli settlers have once again proven that there is no bottom to their inhumanity.
The israelis killed this little Palestinian girl for fun, as she filmed herself live on air on her phone in a makeshift tent in Gaza | from @Abu_Salah9
🇮🇱🇵🇸Israelis attacked a christian funeral, of a Palestinian woman who they killed. Journalist Shireen Abu Alkeh was shot in the neck, like Charlie Kirk, live on air.
This was 2022. It didn't start on October 7th.
What a wonderful and touching gesture.
Arianna Hamilton lost her job at Burger King after taking a stand and saying, “Free Palestine.”
The people of Palestine painted a mural in her honor, celebrated her, and thanked her for standing with them.
“We could already smell dead bodies everywhere”
Dr. Feroze Sidhwa describes entering Gaza amid the smell of death, explosives, and sewage, and confronts the United States’ direct role in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

In light of my viral video yesterday debunking disinformation on Hijab, I've had several white liberals hijabsplain to me that Muslim women who wear a hijab are oppressed because they're forced to wear it, but Catholic Nuns who wear the habit are free because they choose to wear it.
The cognitive dissonance here is stunning. smh
Khabib Nurmagomedov explains how if you want to work in MMA, you need to submit to zionist sponsors. If you even mention the slaughter in Gaza, they cancel you. Yet, he still chose life over money.
