May Allah have mercy on all of our loved ones who have passed away. Nothing hurts more than losing an integral member of your family. Make good use of your time on this earth, and make Dua for those who are no longer with us. ❤️
The reason the world is upset with Israel is because of the 700,000+ innocent Palestinians they've murdered.
It's not because they're Jewish.
Hope that helps.
Exactly two years ago, the University of Ottawa suspended me from my medical residency training in public health because of social media posts in support of Palestinian human rights. They framed my social media posts as “unprofessional”. The irony being that I studied the impacts of settler colonialism on health in Palestine during my public health training. They messed with the wrong person.
They later reinstated me, without any apology, so I left their racist institution to put my time and energy to places and people who actually deserve it. It’s been a year since I filed a human rights complaint against the university, and they continue to try to dismiss the case with frivolous motions with factual inaccuracies, but the court seems to acknowledge the value in hearing the case. It is blatant discrimination on basis of anti-Palestinian racism. I’m taking them (and the faculty member who doxxed me) to a provincial human rights tribunal to seek accountability and justice.
To anyone else who is facing similar forms of repression for solidarity with Palestine - remember you are on the right side of history. To stand against genocide is the most decent and moral position to take. To oppose genocide as a healthcare worker is the most professional position to take. Keep your head held high. The institutions will come around when there is no political or economic cost to oppose genocide. Until then, we will keep persisting and pushing back against bullies and racist institutions. Free Palestine, from the river to the sea.
How can the world sit back and watch the worst genocide in modern history? Where is our humanity? Where is justice? Where is the value of human life or basic human rights? As educated as we think we are, if we don't have humanity in us, we have nothing.
If you still think that Israel is trying to avoid civilian casualties, you have no idea how ridiculous you sound. You don't accidentally kill 23,000 women and children. You don't accidentally bring 1.1 million people to the edge of famine, with children already starving to death.
Israel managed to kill European citizens working for an NGO, bomb the Iranian embassy, and announce the closure of Al Jazeera all on the same day.
All while committing genocide on Palestinians. This can't be normal.
`A'ishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: When the last ten nights (of Ramadan) would begin, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would keep awake at night (for prayer and devotion), awaken his family and prepare himself to be more diligent in worship. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
on this international women’s day we stand in solidarity with the women of Palestine who are resisting genocide, suffering through child birth and period poverty
