🚨 JUST IN:
🇮🇷 Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Tehran will not be subservient to the United States and "will not tolerate the language of threats."
His remarks come as tensions between Iran and the U.S. continue to escalate.
👀 Does this signal the end of diplomacy—or just another round of political pressure?
We continue to be horrified by the escalating violence in Israel and Palestine.
The attacks on innocent Israeli civilians - especially women and children - are unjustifiable.
The attacks on innocent Palestinian civilians - especially women and children - are unjustifiable.
As Muslims and as Canadians, we are horrified by images of Hamas targeting, killing, and hostage-taking of civilians. We are terrified by the open calls for genocide by Israeli political and military leaders and the incessant bombing taking place right now that is carrying out those calls.
Those who commit such acts are committing war crimes and must be independently prosecuted in a court of law. We call for Canada to recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC in Israel and the Occupied Territories to bring all those to justice who commit heinous acts.
As Canadians, we have to remain true to our values of human rights and the rule of law. Canada can not stand by and watch terrible crimes, and acts of terrorism serve as a pretext for justifying mass atrocities, as well as hate here in Canada that is tearing communities apart.

The victim is an orphan.
They asked where he was from
and whether he's Muslim/Arab
before brutally beating him.
THIS IS ISLAMOPHOBIA.

It was a tense day of reporting from Leicester for me today. I interviewed a Hindu man wearing a motorbike helmet, holding an Indian flag on Belgrave road, the site of some of the unrest yesterday between a group of Muslim and Hindu men. Here’s what happened. 👇🏼
For people in Canada now interested in Lockheed Martin, the world's largest weapons producer:

Dua doesn’t have to be formal or even eloquent; it can be whatever you feel in that moment. You don’t need to pretend with Allah.
Learn to speak to Him the way you would speak to a loving friend.
There is nothing wrong with turning to Allah and simply saying: “I’m tired.”

Vigils are not enough to conquer hate. #Islamophobia is systemic. How are we using education, policy, and law to fight back?
We worked hard to shelter our youth from Islamophobia so they wouldn’t have to carry this heavy burden.
- now they are compelled to join the struggle on behalf of their lost friend and loved one.

The killing of innocent children cannot be normalized in any situation or in any part of the world.
A child in Yemen is a child in the US is a child in Africa.
On the 19th of Ramadan the destiny is written.
On the 21st night decisions are taken.
On the 23rd night it is endorsed and signed.
