Muslims are usually thought of as 20th-century immigrants to the US, yet for well over three centuries, African Muslims like Omar were a familiar presence. They had grown up in Senegal, Mali, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Benin & Nigeria where Islam was known since the 8th century

He didn’t deserve this, no Palestinian deserves this….may god have mercy on your soul Anas.

This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings. Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half. I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls. I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed. I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission. I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards. I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith. I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting. O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it. Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance. Anas Jamal Al-Sharif 06.04.2025 This is what our beloved Anas requested to be published upon his martyrdom.

Now you know how Nazis flirt with each other

Apparently, Israeli foreplay involves whispering confessions of genocide.

If I must die, let it be a tale. #FreePalestine #Gaza

Extreme torture and malnourishment: Palestinian captive Ibrahim Mohammad Khaleel Al-Shaweesh, a resident of Beit Hanoun, North Gaza, was freed today after a year in Israeli captivity. He was abducted from a displacement shelter in northern Gaza on December 10, 2023, and initially detained in border barracks where he endured extreme torture. For 45 days, he was blindfolded, shackled, and forced to kneel, before being transferred to Naqab (Negev) prison, where he suffered electric shocks and attacks by dogs. Upon his release, visible signs of torture and extreme malnutrition marked his face testifying to the brutal treatment of Palestinian captives in Israeli prisons. SAFA News Agency

After Palestinian captive Mohammad Daoud was freed, the hardest task fell on his brother, Yousef, to tell him that their father, sister, and the rest of their family, including siblings and uncles, had been killed. Yusuf himself lost his wife and children during the recent ground invasion of Jabalia camp. tariq_al_deqes_ (IG)

لم يتركوا شيئًا من شرهم وفسادهم في الأرض، حتى الطيور تعمّدوا قتلها. مستوطنون يدهسون أوزًا لمزارع فلسطيني في قرية مسافر يطا، قضاء الخليل .

Recently released Palestinian prisoner Zakaria Al-Zubaidi spoke about the systemic brutality endured by Palestinians detainees in Israeli prisons, detailing severe beatings, relentless humiliation, prolonged isolation, deprivation of food, and complete communication blackouts.

"الأرض هي العرض " اليوم يوم عظيم ومهم في تاريخ القضية الفلسطينية. اليوم، ولأول مرة، يتمكن الفلسطيني من العودة إلى المكان الذي هُجّر منه منذ النكبة، رغماً عن إرادة المحتل. العديد من الفيديوهات توثق هذه اللحظة العظيمة، مما يثير مشاعر مختلطة تجمع بين الفرح والحزن، الألم وشفاء الخاطر. في هذا الثريد، أوثق بعضاً من تلك اللحظات، لتكون شاهداً على أن الفلسطيني لم يبع ولن يبيع أرضه

Matt Miller and the other propagandists at the State Dept would rather have visuals of me being carried out than have Blinken have to answer a few of my questions.

i wish refaat was here to see this

The announcement of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas is welcome news. I’m relieved to see hostages and Palestinian detainees being released as part of the deal, bringing much-needed comfort to their families who have endured so much. However, an urgent need remains: we must permanently end the genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza, humanitarian aid needs to increase exponentially to avoid continued suffering, and work toward a just and lasting peace and self-determination for the Palestinian people.
