".. admonish them & speak to them a far-reaching word." (Al-Quran) Read & reflect. Repair, then share.
2 million Muslims in Gaza in apocalyptic conditions, freezing and drowning to death.
2 billion Muslims around them asking Allah for Paradise.
They're drowning in front of us.
حسبنا الله ونعم الوكيل
In light of the White House’s insults at the Somali community, telling them to “go back to their country,” calling them “garbage”, with a row of suited officials nodding along in approval, one can’t help but remember:
قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَاءُ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَمَا تُخْفِي صُدُورُهُمْ أَكْبَرُ
“Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their hearts conceal is greater.” (Qur’an 3:118)
When such poverty of character, moral illiteracy and major insecurity is squared against a community of immense loyalty, unbreakable families, ferocious generosity, and above all, our siblings in faith, the contrast is almost painful to watch.
Time will tell who history will dispose of as “garbage” and who it will crown with honour.
Until then, the Qur’an has already delivered its verdict:
إِنَّ شَانِئَكَ هُوَ الْأَبْتَرُ
“Indeed, your hater—he is the one cut off.” (Qur’an 108:3)
The land of Judgement Day will be one not stained by any sin. It has never known injustice. It carries no memory of bloodshed, pride or oppression. Not one lie was ever told upon it. It never hosted a tyrant. It never sounded with the cries of the oppressed. Never felt the footsteps of the arrogant. No trench was dug here. No genocide was committed here. No idol was worshipped here. On that land, Allah has never been disobeyed.
Allah will roll up this earth, like a scroll being sealed, and bring forth an entirely new land.
The Prophet PBUH said:
يحشر الناس يوم القيامة على أرض بيضاء عفراء، كقرصة نقي.
"People will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment upon a white, barren land like a pure white loaf of bread flattened dough." (Al-Bukhari)
The pure and white landscape of Judgment Day means that justice carries over entirely. It is a land that has had its memory reset, its history erased.
But your history will not.
That’s why the truly blessed one is the one who rises on that Day with a record as pure as the ground beneath his feet.
Alhamdulillah in the beginning and in the end.

Zohran wins. What does this mean?
"Zohran Mamdani has won the position of Mayor of New York — despite an aggressive campaign led by the Zionist lobby, Donald Trump himself, and Elon Musk, all aiming to bring him down. Billions were spent, and relentless, coordinated media attacks were launched against him.
Mamdani is now the youngest person ever to hold the office, the first mayor to openly identify as Muslim, and the one who achieved the highest voter turnout in sixty years. He even publicly challenged the Prime Minister of the Zionist entity, declaring that if he ever set foot in New York, he would have him arrested.
A few years ago, anyone predicting such a scenario would have been called delusional — yet here it is, reality.
This historic shift against the Zionist lobby in the U.S. is unlikely to have a direct effect on our region, since American voters primarily chose Mamdani for local issues — better services and governance in New York — not for shaping U.S. foreign policy.
Still, this remarkable event reveals how much the Zionist influence has weakened in recent years. I believe it will send shockwaves through the American political landscape, deepen internal divisions within both parties, and heighten the already sharp polarization in American society — fueling a period of radical transformation across the nation."

A day in the life of a Palestinian woman.
I often wonder how ʿUmar would have reacted to a video like this.
But the Lord of ʿUmar is never absent.
He will raise a people, a believing and courageous people, who will restrain these criminals.
For those unsure, here's a quick snapshot of Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, who recently won the Nobel Peace Prize over former U.S. President Donald Trump.
She described the genocide in Gaza as “Israel’s war on terror.”
She openly declared her intention to move Venezuela’s embassy to Jerusalem.
In several television interviews, she claimed that Venezuela and Israel are alike in their fight against terrorism.
She praised what she called the “courage of the Israeli people,” portraying them as a model of democracy in the Middle East.
In 2020, Machado’s party, Vente Venezuela, signed a cooperation agreement with Israel’s Likud Party—Netanyahu’s own party—claiming that the two shared common values and a similar fight against terrorism.
A document published on MintPress News bears Machado’s signature, in which she calls on Netanyahu to intervene in Venezuela to overthrow President Nicolás Maduro, whom she labels a dictator.
In 2019, she thanked Netanyahu publicly after Israel recognized Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s interim president—part of the broader U.S.-led attempt to unseat Maduro.
In 2025, Israel’s foreign minister personally contacted both Machado and Edmundo González, the opposition’s claimed election winner, expressing hope that democracy would soon be restored in Venezuela. Machado, in turn, said she was grateful for Israel’s support for the Venezuelan people.
Machado has supported U.S. sanctions against her own country, calling them necessary to topple a dictatorial regime.
She also praised a recent U.S. military operation announced by Trump as a step toward liberating Venezuela.
Her history is filled with support for coups. In 2002, she signed the Carmona Decree, backing the attempted coup against the late President Hugo Chávez.
She later founded SUMATE, an organization funded by USAID—the U.S. agency notorious for bankrolling “democracy restoration” projects across the world.
In 2005, at the height of the U.S. occupation of Iraq, Machado met with President George W. Bush, urging him to continue working against Venezuela’s legitimate government and its Bolivarian Revolution.
The United States continues to present her as the face of Venezuela’s democratic opposition, openly supporting her right to run after the Maduro government banned her from the elections. Senior U.S. officials, including Brian Nichols and Juan González, have described her as “a legitimate leader representing the will of the Venezuelan people.”
Today, there is no such thing as neutrality. Everything is politicized - that's humanitarian aid, AI tools, social media platforms, and the entire international system.
Why al-Sham, Palestine and Jerusalem?
[Episode 1]
Al-Shām has seen it all — prophets, empires, and clashes of civilization. From the Canaanites to the Romans, from the Pharaohs to the Muslims, every great power tried to claim it. Why? Because al-Shām isn’t just land — it’s the crossroads of continents, cultures, and revelation. It is the heartbeat of the human story.

This is Hamza Mustafa Abu Touha, a Qur’an teacher in Gaza. I want to share with you his own words on a photo that he posted, showing his Qur’an notes on the fabric walls of his tent in connection with the 10 modes of Qur’an recitation.
The sheer determination and love for Qur’an is bewildering.
Instil this in your children. Show this photo to your students. Revisit it time and time again until you put yourself on a long and consistent path to Qur’an and Arabic. Read his words with both an eye of admiration and resolve!
Brother Hamza writes:
“This is my home — a tent that feels like a blazing furnace. I struggle just to breathe or move properly. I am constantly drenched in sweat. The only relief I find in it is that diligent student whom I teach the ten Qur’anic recitations. The only thing that eases the harshness of this life are those grammatical, morphological, rhetorical, and linguistic insights into each reading from among the readings of the Qur’an. An hour of this — and it feels as though I’m in Paradise, or in a world entirely unlike this one. I begin to long for life again. I long for the dignity that every human being deserves.”
May Allah relieve your hardship, Shaykh Hamza, and aid us in supporting your cause.
Tonight the moon will turn red.
For the world, it is simply an eclipse. For us, it is a timely and thunderous reminder:
The One who changes the face of the moon is the same One who changes the face of nations.
Tonight's red moon recalls the rivers of blood that have flowed in Gaza, while the world remains deafeningly silent. But the silence of creation is not the silence of the Creator.
وَتِلْكَ الأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَ النَّاس
“These are days We alternate among the people...” [Āl ʿImrān 3:140]
His justice is certain, His promise is near and His sovereignty over the universe is perfect.
If you see the eclipse, pray whatever you can, call upon Him earnestly and make peace with Him once and for all.
The face of the our bereaved Ummah will change, as will do the face of every genocidal criminal.
Only a few days stand between us and Ramaḍān, so start from now:
Train your body with a few units of prayer in the stillness of the night, so that when Ramadan arrives, your limbs are fully accustomed to the posture of night Salah.
Train your stomach with some days of fasting during these short winter days, so your soul doesn’t panic on the first day of fasting, suffocated by cravings it was never taught to release.
Train your tongue for more Qur’an so that when the month of Qur’an arrives, you’re fully fluent in its language.
Train your eyes to lower the gaze and let go of needless curiosity, instead of assuming an automatic “off switch” will somehow appear on the first night of Ramaḍān.
Train your heart to love solitude, the quiet corner, the closed door, the escape from notifications and noise, until you finally hear yourself and what it has been asking from you all along.
Do this now, and do it intentionally, so that when the blessed month arrives you don’t greet it like a stranger, but welcome it like a beloved guest you’ve genuinely been longing for.
But naturally, the soul is stubborn and doesn’t transform on command. But it is willing to hear you out and loosen habits if given an opportunity to adjust into better ones
Otherwise, you will do what so many do every year: Start Ramaḍān in a sprint, and then lose your breath halfway.
اللهم بلغنا رمضان
O Allah, let us reach Ramaḍān.
As torrential rain pours over Gaza, flooding the fragile tents of its families, drenching their clothes and bedding, and leaving children dying in the cold, how blessed is the one whom Allah chooses to be a refuge for them.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
أيما مؤمن أطعم مؤمنًا على جوع أطعمه الله يوم القيامة من ثمار الجنة، وأيما مؤمن سقى مؤمنًا على ظمأ سقاه الله يوم القيامة من الرحيق المختوم، وأيما مؤمن كسا مؤمنًا على عري كساه الله من خضر الجنة
“Whoever feeds a hungry believer, Allah will feed him from the fruits of Paradise on the Day of Judgment. Whoever quenches a thirsty believer, Allah will quench his thirst with sealed nectar. And whoever clothes a believer who is without clothes, Allah will clothe him from the green garments of Paradise.” (Ahmad)
If Allah grants you any means—big or small—of providing rain-proof shelter for these families, then may you be among the blessed recipients of this promise.
Children lying on the wet ground, in wet clothes, on a thin and wet blanket, covered with wet plastic bags to cover their thin and wet bodies from the heavy rain that's flooding Gaza around the clock.
Yes, this is an image of betrayal. An image of Ummatic neglect. An image that would never have been possible had people of power not chosen to look away.
But look again;
It is also the image of leaders in the making.
وَنُرِيدُ أَن نَّمُنَّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ أَئِمَّةً وَنَجْعَلَهُمُ الْوَارِثِينَ * وَنُمَكِّنَ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ
“And We willed to favour those who were oppressed in the land, to make them leaders and to make them inheritors, and to establish them firmly upon the earth.”
(Al-Qur'an 28:5–6)
Victims today.
Inheritors tomorrow, insha'Allah.
Abū Hurayrah said:
إذا مات ابن آدم، قال الناس: (ما خلّف؟)، وقالت الملائكة: (ما قدّم؟)
“When a person dies, the people say: ‘What did he leave behind?’ But the angels say: ‘What did he send ahead?’”
One question belongs to dunya, the other belongs to the ākhirah, and the believer lives answering the second.
Part of today’s collapse of murū’ah (chivalrous dignity) is the indifference of some to the wounds of the Ummah. The same hands that scroll past images of slaughter, oppression, and utter hypocrisy with a deadened heart will type furiously for petty arguments, online drama, niche theological debates, and personal ego. A person of murū’ah feels responsible for more than their own brand or tiny circle; they feel the weight of their Ummah’s pain, even if all they can offer is duʿā’, a word of truth, or a refusal to normalise the oppressor.

"The more savage a coloniser becomes, the closer he is to his own collapse." A statement made by Ilan Pappe, al-Masiri, and other historians.
This is a pattern in history we can’t afford to ignore. When an occupying power exhausts its ability to justify itself, it turns to violence. Extreme, unfiltered violence.
When regimes have nothing left to offer but cruelty, when they begin to kill without hesitation and legislate murder in daylight, they are no longer advancing a project. They are losing control of it.
The recent push in the Israeli Knesset to legalise the execution of Palestinian prisoners is anything but a sign of strength. It’s the clearest evidence of moral exhaustion and utter desperation.
But here’s the catch; barbarism cannot sustain an empire forever, because – according to the historians above - brute force is the final card of a dying empire.
About this civilisational moment, Allah says:
فَلَمَّا نَسُوا۟ مَا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ أَبْوَٰبَ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فَرِحُوا۟ بِمَآ أُوتُوٓا۟ أَخَذْنَـٰهُم بَغْتَةًۭ فَإِذَا هُم مُّبْلِسُونَ
"When they became oblivious to warnings, We showered them with everything they desired. But just as they became prideful of what they were given, We seized them by surprise, then they instantly fell into despair!” (Al-Qur’an 6:44)
Such moments are agonising, and may feel endless, but make no mistake: when cruelty becomes the name of the game, then the ink has touched the page, and the final chapters are being written

Speaking about the battle of Uhud, Allah said:
ثُمَّ أَنزَلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ ٱلْغَمِّ أَمَنَةًۭ نُّعَاسًۭا
"Then, after the grief, He sent down calm upon you, a sleep ..” (Al-Qur’an 3:154)
Today, Gaza is also in grief.
But calm will follow, as it always does, and Gaza will be able to sleep again, whilst bitter wakefulness will befall the tyrants who imagine themselves invincible.
Allah said:
كُنتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ
“You are the best nation ever raised for mankind.” [Āl ʿImrān 3:110]
And the Prophet Muhammad PBUH said:
نَحْنُ الْآخِرُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
“We are the last, yet we will be the first on the Day of Judgment.”
This Muslim Ummah will never be void of goodness. It is, and will remain, the best of humanity until the end of time. The signs and evidences of this are constant and across every sector of society, bringing happiness to the believers and rage to those far from Allah.
So, do not spread words of despair about us. Allah's Eye of care is upon us always, and the example we set, across every land and time, is like none other.
The occupation has just announced the beginning of the invasion of Gaza.
Gaza is literally in flames as we speak.
حسبنا الله ونعم الوكيل
رحماك يا الله
Money buys you a king-size bed but can't buy you sleep.
It can buy top notch food but can't buy ease of digestion.
It can build enormous mansions but can't buy peace at home.
Yes, trade. Succeed. Innovate, but keep in mind –
The truest bliss rests in Iman (faith) and meaningful work -
مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا مِنْ ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنْثَى وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَنُحْيِيَنَّهُ حَيَاةً طَيِّبَةً
"Whoever does good, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely cause him to live a good life.."
[Al-Qur'an, 16:97]
Qur'an and perfecting Salah are examples of feeding Iman.
Standing with confidence and clarity for Gaza is an example of meaningful work.
