May God bless their marriage. The fact that he still said alhamdulillah for a tent as a wedding venue, and biscuits and chips in place of a wedding cake... broke me 😢 These people are something else. Teaching us so much about gratitude and life. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

[@sadia2395]

Could not agree more.Their resilience is honestly awe worthy to me.Being bombed,displaced,losing friends/family,struggling to find food.Women don't have access to hygiene products nor proper sanitation..and yet there is so much composure/poise on bride's mother's face.

Something I've niticed in every single interview with Palestinian people is that they never fail to 'Praise Him in the Storm' - they show a depth of faith, courage and resilience that no atheist, or zyonyst 'christian', will ever comprehend nor match. I pray that the evil oppression, the murdering and theft is urgently stopped and Palestine will be fully restored to its 1967 borders, that Gaza is quickly and beautifully rebuilt (at the cost of those orchestrating, funding and participating in the murder and destruction). Nothing will replace the innocent lives deliberately extinguished, nor the limbs gone and other vpermanent injuries but this people's faith and outlook is incredibly inspiring! ❤

Thanks for the kind words.... Our Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said: Wondrous is the affair of the believer for there is good for him in every matter and this is not the case with anyone except the believer. If he is happy, then he thanks Allah and thus there is good for him, and if he is harmed, then he shows patience and thus there is good for him.

[@jeromesims]

I love your words, but Gaza was an open air prison for refuges. Rebuilding it is not good enough for these beautiful people. They must have a nation like other nations.

[@green_forest]

I always say they must be Job's descendants, as faithful as he was in the midst of loss, grief and sickness. Maybe this is meant to happen just so that the Palestinians can show the rest of the world how to keep faith in dark times. This has certainly put me in check with my lack of faith due to trivial matters. They shall be blessed even more so for their faith. Praise God/Allah/Jehova/Jah!

[@SuperStella1111]

If you are crying ever time you watch something from Palestine, then stop watching. You are only adding to the sadness in the world and it does have an effect on the planet. Find something - anything in your life to be happy about and stick with that. The more I read these type of comments, the more convinced I'm becoming that there are an awful lot of people in this world who want to be brought to tears. There is enough sorry and sadness in the world without adding to it, for no other reason than watching a KZbin video.
