Hi neighbors,

We’d love to invite you to our mosque’s weekly Open House, held every Thursday.

We know there are often misunderstandings about Islam in the Western world, and we believe the best way to address them is through open, friendly conversations. This is a simple opportunity to meet your Muslim neighbors, ask questions, and get to know each other in a relaxed setting.

Everyone is welcome, and we look forward to meeting you.

This makes me want to cry. All pets should be able to be loved and pampered. No animals should ever experience abuse. I hate the ugly side of the world that does this to animals.

You can literaly see the sadness in their eyes☹️thank you for your kindness girl❤️

To answer your question, yes, I am a Muslim and I celebrate Christmas! Muslims believe that Jesus is a prophet of God. And the Bible was revealed to him as the Torah was revealed to prophet Moses “Peace be upon Him” and the Qur’an was revealed to prophet Mohamad ﷺ. We love Jesus and we love the message that was revealed to him.

Our love as Muslims for Jesus is not a love of interest or coexistence with our christian brothers and sisters, nor a reflection of sectarian or political affairs. It is part of our religion, of our faith, of our life that we have learned from Qur’an and Bible.

Who told you that Jesus is only yours? And why I spoke out when they came for Christians? Because I’m a human. I will always speak out for you, even if you never come for me. I will always defend you and me!

I don’t want much for Christmas. I just want the person reading this to be healthy, happy and loved.

#MerryChristmas

[Teacher's Manual @UnofficialOA]

Apart from the fun stuff at work, I don’t celebrate Christmas.

But as a Muslim, I believe that: ‘A person is either your brother in faith or your equal in humanity.’

So Christmas matters to me because it’s celebrated by you ❤️.

Merry Christmas and peace be unto you.

[Nizar_Gaza_🇵🇸 @nizar_almasre]

I’m a Muslim, and I wish all my Christian friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
May peace and love always unite us❤🫂

FIRE AND ASH plays so much better on a second watch it’s almost a different movie; the messiness turns to coherence, the pacing smooths out, and arcs that felt a bit scattered (like Lo’ak’s) suddenly clarify. It’s as dense, rich and wild as any movie Cameron’s made. A major work.

I own a small bakery. We aren’t famous, but we pay the bills. Last Tuesday, a woman came in. She was gripping her purse so tight her knuckles were white. She looked at the display case for a long time—too long. She pointed to the smallest plain vanilla cupcake we had. 'Just that one, please,' she whispered. 'Could you… could you put a tiny candle on it? It’s my daughter’s 6th birthday.' I looked at her shoes. They were wet. It was raining outside, and she had walked here. I looked at her eyes. Red-rimmed. I knew that look. It’s the look of a parent who has to choose between rent and a party. 'I’m sorry,' I said, putting on my best acting face. 'I actually have a huge problem. See this 8-inch chocolate cake with the unicorn frosting?' She looked at the expensive cake on the counter. 'My new decorator messed it up,' I lied. 'The icing is… uh… uneven. I can’t sell it. I was about to throw it in the trash. Would you do me a favor and take it off my hands? No charge. It saves me the guilt of wasting food.' She stared at me. She knew. The icing was perfect. She started to cry, right there in front of the croissant tray. 'Are you sure?' she asked. 'Please,' I insisted. 'You’re doing me a favor.' She walked out with a cake that would have cost $65, holding it like it was gold. Yesterday, I found a card slid under my door. It was a drawing from a 6-year-old girl. A unicorn with a big smile. And in wobbly crayon letters: 'Thank you for making my mommy happy.' Best profit I’ve made all year.

Today, we had the joy of visiting the Barbara Lee Senior Center in Milpitas, where we handed out small goodies and shared smiles with our seniors.

It was heartwarming to see the happiness and appreciation on everyone’s faces — moments like these remind us how powerful simple acts of kindness can be. We truly cherished the opportunity to give back and connect with our neighbors.

Thank you, Milpitas, for allowing us to be part of such a beautiful community.

No. Jews, as a group, do not bear responsibility for the actions of the Israeli state, just as Muslims, as a group, cannot be held accountable for Islamist terrorist attacks. Any insinuation to the contrary, or any attempt to normalise such thinking, is unacceptable.

[Dov Waxman @DovWaxman]

In the wake of the deadly terrorist attack on Jews celebrating Hanukkah on a beach in Sydney, it must be reiterated that Jews in the diaspora are not responsible for Israel’s actions. Targeting them because they're Jewish is antisemitic. It's as simple as that.

[Iftikhar @khanifti1978]

Love for all, hated for none. Praying for my Jewish friends and community on this dark day. Ahmadi Muslim reject all forms of terrorism, violence and hate.

[Palestinian Girl @Palestinia12961]

Terrible massacre in Australia.
I am a Palestinian and a Muslim and I don’t want anyone to kill anybody in the name of Palestine or Islam.
I offer my condolences to the families of the victims and pray for a quick recovery of the wounded.
This madness has to stop.
💔💔💔

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

One of the worst antisemitic slaughters in recent memory in Australia. There is never an excuse to kill innocent people. Ever. The Jewish community in Australia or anywhere else is not responsible for Gaza.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

The targeted terrorist attack on Jewish Americans in Australia on the first day of Hanukkah is appalling and sickening. Thinking of the victims and their families.

[Issa Amro عيسى عمرو 🇵🇸 @Issaamro]

As a Palestinian, I condemn the horrific massacre in Bondi and the targeting of innocent people from the Jewish community at the start of Hanukkah.

This is utterly abhorrent.

I extend my deepest condolences to the Australian Jewish community and to all the victims and their families.

Terrorism, antisemitism, violence, racism and hatred are crimes against humanity and have no place anywhere whether in Australia or anywhere else in the world.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Horrific, disgusting, inexcusable, antisemitic.

[Ahmadiyya Muslim Community - Silicon Valley @AMC_SV]
