End Racist Pro-Israel Media Coverage

[lightgriffinsect]

muslim things we need more of in media

teenage Muslim guys. we've all seen teenage/adolescent Muslim girls in media, how about more guys? give me a Muslim boy in high school who plays cricket and likes Atif Aslam. idk

Muslim parents and parent figures who are chill and not overly strict. half the time the "strict Muslim parents" are not even behaving in an Islamic way.

Muslims who aren't anti-feminist. Islam is a feminist religion. Women are highly encouraged to pursue jobs and higher education. Show more Muslim women in well-paying jobs in STEM and business fields.

Muslims who don't make up restrictions out of thin air. it makes no sense for a Muslim woman to go "oh i can't do [mildly secular thing], I'm a Muslim" BEHAN THERE IS NOTHING IN ISLAM THAT SAYS YOU CAN'T.

Muslim girls who keep their hijab on in front of non-mahram people at all times. yes, this post is about Samirah al-Abbasi and Ms. Marvel. can we get Muslim girls who actually take pride in their hijab and don't take it off for non-mahram men or insist that it's okay because "you're LIKE family to me"

accurate depictions of gatherings, especially weddings, in Islam. This may differ depending on nationality of the characters.

Accurate depictions of Muslims in relationships. Samirah al-Abbas from Magnus Chase is a horrible representation of this. The vast majority of Muslim girls do not get engaged at the age of 12. Most of us do not get engaged or married until we're in our 20s.

Muslims who don't get engaged to or marry their cousins.

adding onto that, Muslims who don't have boyfriends or girlfriends or romanticize the idea of having one.

Muslim women who don't have children and don't regret it.

Muslims who don't get engaged or married at all! It's Sunnah to get married, but it is not mandatory. You can still be a devout Muslim without getting married or having children.

Muslim MEN AND BOYS WHO FOLLOW THE HIJAB. the hijab is NOT just a head covering, it is a WAY OF LIFE that ALL MUSLIMS must follow. it is about MODESTY for both the sexes. Muslim men ALSO need to cover themselves to an extent. yes, the rules differ slightly from male to female Muslims, but they STILL EXIST FOR BOTH. I suggest reading up more on this topic if you don't know much about the hijab.

Muslims who are actively working to get closer to Allah and trying to stop any non-Islamic habits. Muslims who smoke, drink, eat non-halal food but are aware that this is haram and are actively trying to stop. Muslims who show that you don't have to be perfect, you just have to try to be better than you were yesterday. Muslims who are real in their struggles. No one criticizes Christians for being secular or not following their faith perfectly, why are Muslims subjected to so much scrutiny?

Muslims who are shown practicing their faith onscreen. Praying, making du'a, fasting, going to Umrah, even.

Add little bits of the Muslim faith in their everyday life. Instead of air freshener hangings in their cars, my parents have hangings with Islamic calligraphy and the du'a for traveling. We have a stack of prayer mats sitting in a corner of the living room. We have a bookshelf where the entire top shelf is copies of the Quran and other Islamic books. We always say the designated du'a before doing anything such as eating a meal, starting a trip, or even going to sleep.

AN ACCURATE DEPICTION OF ISLAMIC JIHAD. WESTERN PROPAGANDA HAS MADE USE OF YOUR IGNORANCE TO FEED YOU LIES AND DISTORT THE MEANING OF JIHAD.

There are three types of jihad: jihad of the heart, jihad of the mind, and physical jihad.

Jihad of the heart is the Muslim's internal struggle to be faithful and practice their religion wholeheartedly. It is the struggle against temptations of evil, of haram actions. It is the most important form of jihad and one that every Muslim partakes in every day.

Jihad of the mind is the struggle against misinformation about Islam. It is spreading education and information about the principles of Islam. It condemns forcing people to accept Islam. People are meant to be guided. They are meant to find their own path to Islam with the help of knowledge and resources to learn. this form of jihad is important as it keeps Muslims and non-Muslims informed about Islam.

Physical Jihad is an absolute last resort that a Muslim nation must partake in when there is a threat of war from another nation. Islam condemns violence and murder and always pushes its followers to resolve matters peacefully. In a situation where this is impossible, only then is physical jihad permissible. and it has strict rules about who the Muslims can fight. It is haram to kill anyone who is not actively fighting from the opposing army. It is haram to kill women, children, elderly people, and any civilians. It is haram to kill animals except for food. It is haram even to take from the land or damage it in any way. If an army calling itself Islamic is not following these rules, it is not partaking in Jihad. it is partaking in unnecessary slaughter and bloodshed. there you go.

sorry i went on a rant about jihad for a minute there lol, i've been meaning to do that though anyway.

please depict Muslims in media more. please depict us with respect, and with the proper amount of research and effort needed for accuracy. thanks. Ramadan Mubarak, free Palestine <3

Trump Force One

Aloha kākou. President Donald Trump owns a Boeing 757-200 affectionally known as “Trump Force One.” It has two Rolls-Royce RB211 turbofan engines and is configured to seat forty-three people. It has a dining room, bathroom, shower, bedroom, guest room, and galley. Many fixtures are plated in 24-karat gold. It is an iconic flying machine and the best aircraft that Boeing has ever…

thinking abt sumeru... and how hoyos colorism (rightfully) turns a lot of people off from experiencing the sumeru writing and how it actually shows nuance and portrays the desert people as people marginalized by the forest people BECAUSE the sages are withholding wisdom (and therefore privilege) from them. like. its not perfect by any means, im not claiming that, but with... the visuals of the playable characters vs enemies, its surprisingly good and actually has some things to say about colorism and religion. i know a lot of people who are the cultures that were the inspiration (no matter how vague) for sumeru do have a soft spot for the characters and the stories, thanks to what they represent and the surprising depth of the writing. but of course, people who were turned off by the blatant colorism have every right to be upset, and its just. sad. that the narrative that tries to show nuance is overshadowed by the colorist/orientalist design decisions.

O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims [in submission to Him]

Social media has spoiled the sweetness of joys, and clouded the solace of sorrows,

It has dressed people in fake attires and taken them away from the spontaneity of actions to the affectation of emotions,

How miserable is the life of one whose nature has been altered and whose spontaneity has been robbed.

i love religious imagery and depictions of religious guilt but it's so upsetting that most of the time it's christianity which is taken into discussion. don't get me wrong, i enjoy media surrounding christianity as well, but some diversity would be nice. especially since there are several religions being followed in this world, and not everyone relates to catholic guilt lol

[what-shitfuckery-is-this-ew]

Remember this shit?

NOT ONLY DID THEY FUCKING FORCE A CHILD INTO AN OFFENCE AND INTO EXTREMISM THEY PUSHED THE TRIALS FORWARD UNTIL HE WAS 14 SO THEY COULD TRY HIM

Fleming found the JCTT also deliberately delayed charging Thomas with offences until after he turned 14, as it made it harder for him to use the defence of doli incapax, which refers to the concept that a child is not criminally responsible for their actions.

THEY LITERALLY GOT HIM TO TALK TO ACTUAL MUSLIMS AND LEARN ABOUT ISLAM IN A HEALTHY WAY WHICH WASN'T FUCKED UP EXTREMISM SO IT LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE TRYING TO HELP HIM

AND THEN THEY FUCKING CREATED ONLINE PERSONAS WHO TOLD HIM TO MAKE A BOMB AND BASICALLY GROOMED HIM

ACAB

PIGS ARE HARAM

America Under Occupation

AIPAC ORDERED CONGRESS TO SAY :

“Reports that people are starving in Gaza are false”

“Israel is not blocking the delivery of aid to Gaza”

“The United States must not fall into Hamas trap”

“There is no genocide in Gaza”

“HAMAS beaded babies”

“HAMAS raped Israeli hostages”

America is occupied by a foreign power.

AIPAC is a foreign agent that serves Israeli interests and not America’s.

AIPAC and israel pose a clear and present danger to America and Americans.

US, "ISRAEL" AND IRAN ALL CLAIM DIFFERENT LEVELS OF SUCCESS AFTER RETALIATORY STRIKE

The United States media, Israeli media and Iranian media are all claiming different levels of success for Iran's counterstrikes against "Israel" for its attack on the Iranian consulate building in its embassy in Damascus.

According to American media outlet Fox News, US forces intercepted around 80 Iranian drones and at least 6 ballistic missiles on Sunday morning.

At the same time, the Israeli media, citing the Israeli occupation army, declared 99% of 300 or so Iranian launched drones and missiles were successfully intercepted by American and Israeli forces.

Meanwhile, the IRGC is cited as saying that "tens of ballistic missiles and drones" successfully hit their targets.

While there is likely a medium for what actually occured, it seems more than likely, based on video evidence such as that released by the IRGC above, that the Iranian are probably correct in asserting that at least ten missiles and drones successfully struck Israeli targets, but many to most were almost certainly intercepted.

“This is the mission that Iran has adopted, it’s a pillar of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, which is the support for the Palestinians. And Iran has been steadfast in its resolve and unrelenting in its support for the Palestinians. And so this will not change, I guarantee you that.”
