I am so proud of @omarsuleiman
He has justly used his platform to voice what most people with that kind of following are too scared to say among our scholars. And this is not one brave tweet on a good day. This is consistent. This is who he is. Even his pin tweet is about Palestine.
He represents Muslims on international platforms at a time when representing Muslims honestly takes actual courage. He calls out wrong exactly the way it deserves to be called out, without softening it for palatability & without hedging for approval. That is what genuine representation looks like and we should recognise & appreciate it.
The war mongering pedophiles that brought you genocide in Gaza and the most scandalous files of abuse in history are now embroiling the world in a war to distract you in the name of “preserving freedom.”
Bombing a girls elementary school and killing over 30 young children is scratching the surface for these monsters. Truly sickening.

Zionist islamophobe Jake Lang held an anti-islam rally outside the EPIC Mosque in Texas, where he placed a Quran in a pig's head and shouted islamophobic slogans.
Would they allow someone to do this with the Talmud outside a synagogue in a Jewish community? Definitely not.

🚨🇭🇰 HONG KONG'S FIRE UPDATE: DEATH TOLL 36, 279 STILL MISSING, FIREFIGHTER DEAD, BLAZE FINALLY UNDER CONTROL
The horror in Tai Po's Wang Fuk Court keeps getting worse:
At least 36 confirmed dead, 279 people still unaccounted for, and 1 absolute hero, a 37-year-old firefighter, lost his life battling the flames.
Over 800 firefighters and paramedics, backed by 140 engines, are on scene in what’s now a No. 5 alarm (the worst possible).
They’ve rescued a baby and an elderly woman so far, but frantic residents are begging authorities for help finding loved ones inside the seven burning towers that house 4,600 people.
Chief Executive John Lee says the fire is starting to come under control.
3 buildings now show no flames, 4 have only scattered fires left. Let's pray that holds.
Investigation already launched:
Police, fire services, and the buildings department are ripping into whether fire-retardant materials and that damn bamboo scaffolding met standards.
Because officials are straight-up saying the speed of the spread was "unusual" and shouldn't have happened this fast.
This is Hong Kong's worst fire disaster in decades. Hold your families tight tonight.

🚨🇭🇰 HONG KONG HIGH-RISE INFERNO: FOUR DEAD, FIREFIGHTERS STILL BATTLING THE BLAZE
A towering firestorm ripped through a housing estate in Hong Kong today - a blaze so aggressive it jumped between multiple high-rise towers, choked the skyline with black smoke, and killed at least four people, including one firefighter.
This was not a small incident.
This was a vertical disaster in one of the densest cities on Earth.
Reports say residents were trapped inside units as flames climbed scaffolding - the bamboo kind Hong Kong still uses during renovations, which becomes a giant fuse when conditions are dry.
And Hong Kong has been sitting under a red fire danger warning for days. Perfect storm.
Injury count so far: 3, 2 in critical condition.
Alarm level escalation: from No. 1 to No. 4 in under 45 minutes - the 2nd-highest emergency classification the city has.
Firefighters fought through the afternoon and were still at it after dark. Buses rerouted. Roads shut.
Residents evacuated under falling ash.
The deeper problem?
Hong Kong’s aging residential blocks + renovation scaffolding + extreme dry conditions = a structural risk nobody is comfortable talking about until something like this happens.

'nooooo don't drink the Coke we're boycotting Coca-Cola!'
False. YOU'RE boycotting Coca-Cola. THEY don't get to choose what to drink or eat.

Survived two years of genocide. Spent every minute covering Israel's barbarity for the world to see. Poured his heart out to the world when everything seemed too overbearing. Did everything he could to make the children and the next generation around him feel safe.
Today, brave journalist Saleh Al-Jaafarawi from Gaza was gunned down in cold blood by members of one of the crime syndicates Israel has been funding, training and supplying.
Unbearable, unfathomable loss.

When was the last time you ate an apple? 🍎
For most of us it's been over a year. Some of the little ones had never eaten fruits before.
Thanks to you and people like you, we were able to bring fresh cases of apples to families in Gaza. Fruit is rare these days, but hope isn’t.

Why does Israel have “families” but Gaza just have “people”?
After two years of unimaginable loss and suffering for Israeli families and the people of Gaza, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight; that those hostages still being held will be reunited with their families; and that vital aid can start reaching those inside Gaza whose lives have been shattered. More than that, though, it now falls on Israelis and Palestinians, with the support of the U.S. and the entire world community, to begin the hard task of rebuilding Gaza – and to commit to a process that, by recognizing the common humanity and basic rights of both peoples, can achieve a lasting peace.

We demand the immediate and unconditional release of all 9 Malaysian activists and every soul kidnapped for standing with Palestine. You can kidnap the brave, but you can never silence the truth.
