@_kkam__ @andfogle Brother. His whiteness has nothing to do with it. Critique him on his thoughts, not his race.

As per Dr Nasr, there is a subset of the Iranian diaspora that really wants to be white.

He's Iranian, and of the diaspora, and not pro-Revolution.

@Aussie_Persian @tparsi What're you talking about. The Trump regime already bombed Iran and according to Trump himself the Iranians couldn't get to their own centrifuges.

And he bombed them whilst feigning diplomacy right before the 12 Day War.

The Iranians have absolutely zero reason to trust them

@AsadFromNYC Maybe the Church at least recognises how much someone needs to fight Trump and the oligarchy he represents...that taghut

@GlobeEyeNews What's the source for this hilarity!

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@RmSalih We probably need to consult an expert like Professor @ButchWare on the subject!

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@RmSalih I mean...their iconic Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba was a brilliant luminary of the Islamic mystical/Tasawwuf tradition and in all imaginable senses Orthodox. I suspect they're technically Muslims but have misplaced their Qibla, but they strike me as being a profoundly Islamicate product

I hope this isn't exploiting the tears of children, or children at all - but this moves the heart if you have one.

Esraa has returned home, but the absence of her father, who was killed by the Israeli army, brings tears to their eyes.

@peligrietzer @schwarz_seher Goodness, and congratulations (if I'm reading you correctly). Heartiest and warmest congratulations; may you be blessed with a wonderful, joyous, adventurous and fulfilled life together

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@WoeToChorazin Bless you. These days that's how I see myself tweeting!

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@ZeeHaider51214 Hope you don't mind but I've saved a copy of this picture for myself. May your ziyara be accepted in sha' Allah

@5uhay1 @NatzSakdis @footy206024192 @GuzKhanOfficial @shahzadmkayani I agree. Short of temporary insanity there aren't many excuses. But you'd be surprised as to how judgmental folks might be as you're trying to make up your qada', or can't make Jumu'a/restart prayers due to incontinence, or for those who have panic disorders who have to stop

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@GuzKhanOfficial @shahzadmkayani Pray for those who are chronically unwell and for those on strong medications - Fajr is hard, or sometimes we sleep through other prayers and they can get hard to pay back because of the healthcare cases, depending.

But you're right, Fajr is life-altering

On Corbyn/Putin. This is a BBC report from 2000 on a demonstration of 200 people in London against Putin's war in Chechnya. Look who led it on a cold February day.

Weeks later, Tony Blair would fly to Russia to attend the opera with Putin to help him win the imminent election.

[Abdullah Saleh @_Abdullah_Saleh]

🎯 The sister here is absolutely correct (with apologies to Sam, he never supported that nonsense).

Truth is, as long as Tate was humiliating Muslim women, servile Muslim men were cheering him on. Their only problem with him now is that he is humiliating (some) Muslim men.

@Hussssayn The online and Da'wa Corner's culture is horrific. We look like unsophisticated morons who long for a bygone era

Alas without a prophet all these guys are basically doing recreating the jahiliyya with their shamelessness

We look bullish and foolish. What happened to dhawq!

@MacrobianNomad @abdaal @shahanSean Thanks Hamza, any recommended reads from you and the dear Professor, please?

@sexyscientist @RupertLowe10 Wasn't there an enquiry in 2014? And then again in 2022:

@Hussssayn @sharghzadeh Wait till they find out what our lot really get up to on Ashura! :p

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@Irrelevant786 @5Pillarsuk @RmSalih @DillyHussain88 Remember, the whole Sunni (predominant) world stood by as Saddam gassed the Shi'a and Kurds of Iraq - the Lebanese resistance has their own grievances. That 'til today whether in Nigeria or Pakistan Shi'a blood can be easily spilled. The clock didn't start re. Iran in '13.

[Heightened Senses @SpecsnSpoons]

@Irrelevant786 @5Pillarsuk @RmSalih @DillyHussain88 Qur'ans upon their spears (Tabari accounts for this) and still we are to be told that his behaviour is purely a reaction to the Iranians/Lebanese

Also, all of you - if you're looking to contextualise HTS also do the same for Iran, even where we disagree
