Today is the 31st anniversary of the #Srebrenica Genocide where 8372+ Bosnian Muslims were executed by Serbian forces, purely because of their faith.
Most of them were young men and boys, they were buried in mass graves, and some of there are bodies are still being discovered.
May Allāh grant them the highest ranks in Jannah and bring their oppressors to justice.
Sheikh Dr. Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais:
O Allah, make this year of ours better than our past, and make our future better than our present, and grant glory and victory to Islam and the Muslims.
This report is haunting even for someone who has documented the most horrific aspects of this genocide - which too many world leaders pretend not to see.
I commend the Commission of Inquiry for its effort to bring about accountability and make the truth accessible.
The first glimpse of the Kaaba through the Abdul Aziz Gate is more than a sight, it’s a feeling beyond words.
In that moment, the heart softens, the eyes fill, and the soul is overwhelmed with peace and humility. ❤️
The struggle is not between people who care about Palestine and people who care about injustice at home.
The struggle is between those who recognize human dignity wherever it is violated, and those who make exceptions for the people they fear or profit from.
Gaza, Sudan, ICE dungeons. Mass incarceration, etc. are ALL related to each other.
As Muslims celebrate Eid, Gaza is bombed, Gazans visit their loved ones graves, and Israel keeps shedding Palestinian blood for the world to see. This week’s footage of Palestinian parents holding the dismembered remains of their children resembled the worst moments of this genocide, yet the world continues to ignore it.
78 years of ongoing Nakba.
78 years of erasure.
Against all odds, we remain on our land and the land of our ancestors.
Return is our right.
Freedom is our destiny.
On May 15, join the Palestinian people in commemorating the Nakba.

As we witness what is happening in the world today, many hearts feel heavy.
On the 17th of Ramadan, the Battle of Badr reminds us that even in the most difficult moments, the believers turned to Allah ﷻ with complete trust.
Ya Allah ﷻ, bring peace to our world, fill hearts with patience, and guide us all to what pleases You. Ameen.
For those of us watching from a distance, in safer cities, behind screens, far from the smoke, it’s easy to feel helpless. Remember that this Ummah has Allah. Take a moment during these holy days to break away from the news and raise your hands to call upon Him.
May He strengthen the steadfast and bring justice and peace wherever there is oppression. May He unite and protect the Ummah across the globe.
Fibroids are literally a personal hell for Black women...self included. I'm glad Lupita is raising awareness. I'd be happier if more research funds went into understanding the reasons why Black women experience fibroids much earlier and w/ greater complications than other groups
The suffering of Africans is so normalised, Sudan is experiencing a cataclysmic humanitarian crisis like nothing ever seen in recent history, and yet it is not consuming international news cycles the way it should
The world is so desensitised to African pain /:

The lack of pressure on Israel to release the thousands of Palestinian hostages (including CHILDREN) says a lot about what Peace that lays ahead, for the Palestinians.
There cannot be peace without justice, human rights and dignity of ALL.
Palestinian lives matter.
Today marks two full years of the entombment of the names, faces, and lives of Gaza. Over 67,000 have been murdered, reduced to numbers on a screen and names scratched off a book. Entire families have been erased. Roughly 90% of Gaza’s 2.1 million people have been displaced, and nearly four out of five buildings in Gaza are damaged or destroyed.
This is no “war,” it is the cold and calculated destruction of innocents trapped in an open air prison. Famine has been weaponized more effectively than bombs and has inflicted more lasting cruelty than bullets. Our world bears witness to this latest chapter of history; a videographed genocide echoing 77 years of death, displacement, famine, and an attempted erasure of Palestine since 1948, rewritten in a new font.
These past 730 nights will be remembered as a moral X-ray of our age. History will expose the governments that could have stopped mass starvation and chose not to. It will reveal ceasefire resolutions passed again and again, ignored by those who held the power to act. And on the Day of Judgment, those who engineered and enabled this bloodletting will meet the One whose justice does not forget.
For the believers, there is one urgent command: do not normalize the unthinkable. Do not act as if blood watering the ground is ordinary. Silence and normalization will be what brings us to our knees on the Day of Judgment. Those enduring the horrors face unimaginable trials, yet they have passed their test. Wake up, O Muslims - wake up!
