I just sit and listen to Omer Sulieman and cry and keep my Muslim Palestinian brothers, sisters, old and young in my prayers. 😢😢😢

[@pocket1122]

He has such a calming way of speech. It truly does help to hear his voice continuously guiding us despite how tough things are now.

[@ward_matty]

Technically if all muslims moved out of the west - western economies - that rely on immigration - would collapse. they wouldn't be able to support Israel anymore. And muslims wouldn't be giving western countries taxes anymore - taxes used to finance their militaries or support countriesl ike israel. But at the same time, would muslims be willing to do this? give up their comfy lives to possibly save palestine.

Jannah is more than enough mercy. That is why sufferings are more rewarded because of sabr and yaqeen. Yes its painful to watch what's happening to gaza. Astaghfirullah but the work of Allah SWT is beyond human mind. Allahu Akbar🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 And it is certain to all Muslims that we should secure our deen in our hearts till our last breath.

Ya Allah make us as steadfast as our brothers and sisters. Where are the actions from the Muslim countries. We have our Du’ahs and we trust in Allah and His timing. Du’ahs never go to waste. All hospitals in Gaza are now surrounded. What to expect in the hours to come? Ya Rabb

We can also be proud of us, seeing how strong we can be and how much solidarity we can have. I also am happy to see so many people from every race and belief unite for them. I heard a young white American girl who is Jewish say that this made people islamocurious instead of islamophobic. I really hope more people can see this religion for what it truly is 🙏🏾.
