Alhamdulillah, my minimalist iOS app Salah Horizon is officially live!
Within the first 24 hours, we already have users connecting to their prayers from Bosnia to Namibia. 🌍✨
I built this to be a pure, distraction-free prayer companion. No clutter, just peace. It features a stunning 24h global time-lapse simulation, custom Adhan, and beautiful Qibla skins.

Here’s the U.S. government in a nutshell:
Our secretary of war Pete Hegseth announced a LIVE execution of Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter.
Because he’s an American citizen with an Arab/Muslim name, he needs to be made example of.
Meanwhile, within the same week, our senate voted to NOT investigate the murders of U.S. citizens by the Israeli government.
In other words, your rights as a U.S. citizen are contingent upon who kills you and where.
Israel gets a free pass.
Always.
It's so difficult to explain to the outside world what it has meant to live in the West Bank in the last few months.
The level of Israeli violence we have been witnessing has not only been unprecedented, but it's beyond rogue and feral.
Israelis, whether in the army or not, have been armed not just with military grade weapons like M16s, but they've been provided with drones.
Every neighborhood in the West Bank faces some form of Israeli violence every day. It's either settlers carrying out pogroms, shooting Palestinians in their own lands and homes, or the army and police detaining Palestinians and subjecting them to torture as a sadistic ritual.
As Palestinians we've been stripped of all capacity to not just push back, but to even remain on our lands.
BRIEF:
Water has been systemically cut off, electricity is slowly cut off, access to hospitals and education is ruptured, there are economic restrictions on money flow while Israeli soldiers carry out organized and systemic robbery of Palestinians (stealing money from people on checkpoints, stealing gold from homes, and even carrying out army-sanctioned robberies of hundreds of thousands of dollars from official money exchange offices).
The West Bank feels so dystopic, every day we wait to see if Israelis have come up with a reason to carry out their sadistic games of violence. Whether it's some Jewish holiday, or some other excuse, we're always just waiting to see what event Israelis will evoke that day to attack us.
It's like a daily waltz with death. You either survive another day, or you don't.
This is my beloved, my 15-year-old niece Layan.
During the genocide, she gathered children and tried to teach them—despite the roar of warplanes and Israeli missile blasts.
The murderous Israeli criminals—enemies of life—killed her.
While media is busy with the fight between two pilots of ‘Fly Dubai’ aircraft, Israel has bombed a bus in Gaza, killing at least 5 Palestinians and injuring dozen!
בגלל העניין והחשיבות הציבורית אני ורחלי החלטנו ביחד עם הגרדיאן שהסרט נז״א יהיה נגיש באינטרנט בחינם, ללא הגבלת זמן, כדי שכל אדם יוכל לצפות בו ובעדויות החיילים. זה יקרה בעוד כמה שבועות, בנובמבר, במועד הכי מוקדם שהצלחנו לקבוע. עד אז פנינו לבתי קולנוע בישראל והצענו להם את הסרט ללא עלות, בתקווה שיוקרן בארץ כבר עכשיו, במקביל להפצתו בבתי קולנוע בעולם. הצגתו תהיה החלטה אמיצה אל מול אלימות גדולה שמכוונת להסתרתו. אני יודע שיש ביקוש אדיר לצפות בסרט ואני מקווה שבאופן הזה כולם בקרוב יוכלו לראות אותו: בין אם בבתי הקולנוע ובין אם באינטרנט בעוד כמה שבועות.
הרבה דברים לא נכונים נאמרו עלינו ועל הסרט בשבוע החולף. הסרט מבוסס על תחקיר עיתונאי מקיף של שלוש שנים והפרטים בו מאומתים ומוצלבים. הוא ידבר בעד עצמו והאמת סופה להתבהר.
עשינו את הסרט כדי לעורר דיון ציבורי לגבי המעשים של הממשלה בעזה, ההרג של יותר מ73,000 בני אדם, רובם אזרחים, הנרמול של מלחמת השמדה, של התפיסה ש״אין בלתי מעורבים״. עשרים וארבעה חיילים וחיילות עשו צעד ודיברו מול מצלמה על מה שחברה שלמה לא רוצה לדבר עליו.
ההכרה בזוועות בעזה לא מפחיתה לרגע מהטבח הנפשע של השבעה באוקטובר, שחמאס אחראי עליו, שחיילים מדברים עליו בסרט, ושאין לו שום הצדקה. להפך. הרי ההתעלמות ממה שקורה בעזה היא מהגורמים שסללו את הדרך לשבת הנוראה ההיא. וההתעלמות הזו נמשכת.
עיתונות היא לא בגידה. ביקורת היא לא בגידה. זו חובה של כל אזרח שממשלתו מבצעת פשעים לדעת ושל כל חייל שהיה עד להם לספר. מסתובבים כאן אלפי חיילים כאלה, שיצפו בסרט ויזהו את מה שמתואר בו באופן אישי: את ההרג של אנשים לא חמושים שחוצים קו מדומיין, את אישורי הנז״א במאות, את התקיפות המערכתיות בבתי משפחות, את השריפה וההשמדה הפיזית של עזה, רצח וירי על אנשים רעבים במרכזי מזון ופשעים נוספים שאין להם הצדקה. גם אם זה מפחיד, זו חובתכם למצוא את הדרך להעיד על מה שראיתם. יגידו לכם שכדאי להסתיר את האמת למען הסברה בחו״ל, אבל זה קשקוש. שם יודעים כבר הכל. פשעים לא מסבירים אלא עוצרים. הסתרת האמת קודם כל מרעילה את החברה שלנו ומעל הכל מאפשרת לפגיעה בבני אדם בעזה להימשך.
ובנימה אישית: אני כותב על מדיניות האש של הצבא בעזה בעברית ב״שיחה מקומית״ כבר שלוש שנים. התחקירים זכו להתעלמות בישראל. עכשיו בפעם הראשונה משהו נסדק במסך ההתעלמות - וזה דבר חיובי. זה דבר בריא. כן, זה מגיע עם מחיר אישי גדול. היה שבוע קשה. אבל בתוכו גם יש המון תמיכה, והרבה נדיבות. מה שבטוח: האיומים לא יעזרו. זה לא מרתיע אותנו. אני ורחלי נחזור לארץ ונמשיך להיאבק על עתיד המקום הזה ביחד עם שותפים רבים.
If anyone knows the family or community let them know LaunchGood is here to honor Habib with a Sadaqah jariyah campaign if they want, dollar for dollar matched inshallah 🤲

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.
Hey @grok. Run Israel’s Lavender on this account.
Analyze the whole thing, then give me a 1–100 score for how much of a concern I am to them.
Don’t write an essay. Just:
Score: __ / 100
Eyewitnesses in Gaza report that as the several-storey building collapsed Wednesday, a civil defense member ordered everyone at the scene to stay silent and stood on top of the building screaming at the top of his lungs, "Is there anyone who can hear me? Is anyone alive?"
Then, a suffocating child from under the heavy concrete wheezed, "I can hear you, but I'm stuck between two ceilings. I can't speak or move. No one can see or hear me. I am dying of fear. No oxygen here. I will die."
3 hours later, the civil defense managed to retrieve his dead body.
I’m heartbroken. This is horrific. A multi-floor building that had been previously bombed by Israel has collapsed in Gaza on top of at least 6 families. Families are stuck and there is no way to remove the rubble and save anyone.
Palestinians must not only survive Israel's ongoing genocide, but also the unbearable heat. Israel has destroyed nearly all of Gaza's infrastructure, blocked essential humanitarian resources from entering the Strip, and Palestinians are experiencing limited electricity.
In just over 4 years, 9 Americans have been killed in the West Bank with 0 accountability. It’s past time we get answers about their deaths & the constant injustices Palestinians face from the Israeli occupation of the West Bank.
I'm introducing a resolution requiring the State Dept to begin to answer these questions & I'll be bringing it to a vote when Congress returns.
Look at her face.
She was a sun shining a light for her family inside their tent.
Israel extinguished that light forever.
The world is darker because of Israel’s evil crimes.
That’s 10-year-old Amal Abu Khater who was shot in the back and killed by Israel while she was eating.
Will Jewish communities be asked to condemn these extreme statements from the Chief Rabbi of the self-proclaimed Jewish state, in the same way that Muslim communities for 25 years have been asked to condemn extreme statements from every random imam anywhere in the world?
It’s wild that Tucker Carlson covered this while the liberal-left media outlets didn’t, and then you’ll have leftists who’d rather castigate the father of a Palestinian boy who was murdered for daring to speak about it with one of the only well-known media figures who would even give him the time of day, rather than address the lack of coverage on the left or even demand justice for this boy themselves.
@MarioNawfal Imagine how evil & sadistic you have to be to go from a comfortable life in the west to move to be a “settler” in rural Middle East to abuse animals, children, and the elderly.
MEMRI, the propaganda arm of Isra@el, has been quite active in taking snippets from my lectures and portraying me as some kind of stealth radical cleric. Nothing new. Its founder spent two decades in Israeli military intelligence and later served as a counterterrorism adviser to two Israeli prime ministers (imagine how much innocent blood he has on his hands?).
But their latest attempt to smear me is genuinely confusing.
They have my picture plastered on their website, and quote me as saying in a recent sermon:
“We want our country to be better...we love our country. And because we love our country, we want it to be ethical, we want it to be noble, we don't want it to be involved in genocide!”
And...this is somehow supposed to expose me as some kind of evil “Islamist jihadist”?!
Or has MEMRI had a change of heart and decided to become my PR agency? 😉
Truly, these people are so blinded by their hate that they can no longer distinguish evil from good; even the most basic demands of human decency are portrayed as something sinister.
