#The obligations in Islam

[karinasbaby]

hii stella! could you please explain what being Muslim in fact is? idk much about it aside from knowing that it's a religion? i dont even know if thats right actually 😭 what is about? we don't have that much Muslims in my country and i would love to know more about it (ik i could just google it but i like hearing it from you way better ^-^

hi baby anon ! tbh i will say that im probably the worst person to ask this question 😭 im still working on my own faith, beliefs & connection w my religion and im not that comfy w giving out info that im still learning myself and building it up everyday (might be wrong even) so id say doing ur own research or having certain questions might be a better approach ! but it does get a bit confusing sometimes since there are lots of scholars that have their own opinions on everything, id say if you have the time then u should def read our holy book for yourself and learn from the main source ! & also my moot @enha-stars has much more knowledge in comparison to me and im sure that shes the better person to ask about this 😭 either way if u have any questions or anything else pls dont hesitate to ask either of us ! whether it’s by private dms or by asks we would love to help :]

Is it okay if I pray for someone to go through the exact thing that they put me through? I’m not a vengeful person by any means but the depth of the pain and betrayal that this person put me through and after pretending to be on my side all along for 4 years absolutely shatters me and I can’t help but ask Allah to make them suffer the way they made me suffer. What’s worse is that I told them over and over how their behaviour was hurting me to the point where they almost risked my life and left me to die. I sometimes feel guilty about praying against them after praying for them for so long but I can’t bring myself to stop. I’m hoping one day I’ll be able to let go and make peace with the pain but for now, I’m not sure if I can

Salam, I’m really sorry you’re going through this.

The duaa of the oppressed is answered, which is why people are warned against oppressing others, as those they harm may pray against them and their duaas are always accepted.

And knowing Allah is the most Just means that even if you don’t make duaa against them, if someone hurts you intentionally, Allah will bring you justice. Was Yusuf making duaa against his brothers after they left him to die in the well? I doubt it. Yet decades passed and Allah gave him power and brought his brothers to him in weakness. And they were completely at Yusuf’s mercy.

But you’ll notice that Yusuf was given the ability to get revenge and he didn’t. The Prophet ﷺ was also given the ability to get revenge on his oppressors, and he chose not to.

I don’t know what you went through. If someone was deliberately hurting you and abusing you, I can’t tell you you aren’t allowed to pray against them — because you are.

All I will say is saying hasbi Allah wa nimal wakeel (Allah is enough for me and He is the best disposer of affairs) instead will help release the anger and bitterness that comes with wanting revenge, and leaves them to Allah instead. And Allah being the most Just, He will never leave you without receiving your justice— whether it’s in this life or the next. It will be lighter on your heart and mind to know that you left your case with Allah and trust Him to deal with them in the way that is necessary. As opposed to praying against them day and night and waiting to see them be dealt with.

Net Worth Zakat What It Is and How to Calculate It

Zakat is a fundamental pillar of Islam, emphasizing the importance of charity and social justice. One key concept in Zakat calculation is the net worth, which determines how much a person owes based on their wealth after liabilities. Understanding net worth Zakat is essential for accurate and fair fulfillment of this religious obligation.

What Is Net Worth in Zakat?

Net worth refers to the total value of a person’s zakatable assets minus their immediate debts and liabilities. It represents the actual amount on which Zakat is calculated. Simply put, it’s your wealth after subtracting what you owe others.

Why Is Net Worth Important for Zakat?

Zakat is due only if your net worth exceeds the Nisab—the minimum threshold of wealth required to be eligible for Zakat. Calculating your net worth ensures you pay Zakat only when obligated and on the correct amount. This prevents undue financial burden and aligns with Islamic principles of fairness.

Components of Net Worth for Zakat

Assets included:

Cash and savings (bank accounts, physical cash)

Gold and silver

Investments, stocks, and shares

Business inventory

Rental income and receivables

Agricultural produce (under specific conditions)

Liabilities deducted:

Immediate debts (loans due, bills to pay)

Outstanding expenses or payments

Personal items like your home, car for personal use, clothing, and furniture are excluded from zakatable assets.

How to Calculate Net Worth Zakat

Add all zakatable assets: Combine the current market value of all your eligible assets.

Subtract liabilities: Deduct any immediate debts or payments owed.

Compare to Nisab: Ensure the net worth exceeds the Nisab threshold (equivalent to roughly 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver).

Calculate 2.5%: If above Nisab, multiply the net worth by 2.5% to find your Zakat amount.

🚨🟢 Hamas:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Netanyahu and his Nazi government resume their aggression and genocidal war against defenseless civilians in the Gaza Strip.

We hold the criminal Netanyahu and the Nazi-zionist occupation fully responsible for the repercussions of the treacherous aggression on Gaza, and for the defenseless civilians and our besieged Palestinian people, who are subjected to a brutal war and a systematic policy of starvation.

Netanyahu and his extremist government have decided to overturn the ceasefire agreement, exposing the prisoners in Gaza to an unknown fate.

We demand that the mediators hold Netanyahu and the zionist occupation fully responsible for violating and overturning the agreement.

We call on the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to assume their historical responsibility in supporting the steadfastness and valiant resistance of our Palestinian people, and in breaking the unjust siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.

We call on the United Nations and the UN Security Council to convene urgently to adopt a resolution obligating the occupation to halt its aggression and abide by Resolution 2735, which calls for an end to the aggression and withdrawal from the entire Gaza Strip.

Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas

Corresponding to March 18, 2025 AD

[ouroborosmoons]

Palestinian political leaders comment on the incoming ceasefire implementation:

🟢 Hamas Political Bureau member Bassem Naim:

The issues surrounding the ceasefire agreement were resolved in the last few hours.

Netanyahu no longer has an opportunity to evade the agreement, and Ben-Gvir's [potential] resignation marks the beginning of "israeli" political collapse.

Netanyahu attempted to play his repeated tricks but failed to achieve the objectives he declared at the start of the aggression.

The agreement includes implementing what the resistance previously announced as conditions for accepting the ceasefire agreement.

We broke the occupation's will, and our grand project remains resistance toward liberation.

We are moving forward to implement the ceasefire agreement on Sunday [January 19th] despite the enemy's approach of stalling and evasion.

🟢 Hamas leader Sami Abu Zuhri:

Netanyahu's claims about the [Hamas] movement reneging on items in the ceasefire agreement are baseless.

The occupation seeks to create tension at a critical time, and we demand that it be obligated to implement the agreement.

We call on the current and upcoming U.S. administrations to compel the occupation to adhere to the agreement.

There is no room for debate or Netanyahu's evasion of implementing the ceasefire agreement.

⚫️ Palestinian Islamic Jihad Deputy Secretary-General Mohammed Al-Hindi to Al-Arabi:

Netanyahu no longer has any chance to place obstacles in the way of the ceasefire agreement.

The agreement includes the release of 250 prisoners serving life sentences.

The withdrawal from the Salah al-Din axis will occur gradually and conclude by the end of the first phase of the agreement.

"Israel" and the United States have failed to impose a "day-after" scenario for the war.

We agreed to an Egyptian proposal with Arab backing to form a relief and support committee for Gaza.

Everything is finalized. The deal is done. Netanyahu has no room to maneuver or obstruct.

⚫️ Palestinian Islamic Jihad Political Bureau member, Sheikh Ali Abu Shaheen, to Palestine Today:

The delay in the "israeli" announcement is due to internal reasons, and today’s situation differs from the past—there is no room for maneuver.

Continued aggression against Gaza will trigger reactions in the region, and the occupation is obligated to adhere to the agreement.

The U.S. has acknowledged the failure of the military option in the Gaza Strip.

The resistance is the guarantee for the Palestinian people and will remain ready on the battlefield.

"Israel" achieved nothing in Gaza or Lebanon but destruction and massacres.

🔴 Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine International Relations Officer, Dr. Maher Al-Taher, to Palestine Today:

The steadfastness of our people and their resistance forced the occupation to sign a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

The struggle with the occupation continues. The enemy will not be able to maintain its presence in Gaza as it will pay a heavy price.

KİBLEBULMA - DEVASA+ (3)

Qibla direction holds a significant place in the Islamic faith, symbolizing the direction towards the Kaaba in the Sacred Mosque in Mecca, which is a focal point for Muslims around the world. The term "qibla" itself translates to 'direction' in Arabic, signifying the spiritual orientation that Muslims adopt during their prayers. To assist individuals in determining the qibla direction, various tools and methods have been developed, ranging from traditional compasses to modern technological solutions. One such method involves aligning a real compass with the direction of North to establish the correct qibla direction. Additionally, advancements in technology have led to the creation of Qibla finder apps and online platforms that offer accurate qibla direction information with just a few clicks.

The availability of tools like Qibla finder apps and online platforms has made it easier for Muslims to find the qibla direction with precision and convenience. These applications utilize GPS technology to determine the user's current location and provide the corresponding qibla direction, allowing individuals to perform their prayers with accuracy regardless of where they are in the world. Moreover, online Qibla Finders offer comprehensive databases that include the qibla angles of important cities and centers worldwide, enabling users to access this vital information swiftly and efficiently. By embracing these technological advancements, Muslims can fulfill their religious obligations with confidence and peace of mind, knowing they are facing the sacred Kaaba during their prayers.

Identifying the correct qibla direction is of utmost importance for Muslims when performing their daily prayers. The qibla finder as a focal point that unites Muslims globally in worship, emphasizing the unity and solidarity within the Islamic community. Ensuring that one faces the qibla during prayer is not only a physical alignment but also a symbolic connection to the center of the Islamic faith, fostering a sense of spiritual connection and devotion. By correctly identifying the qibla direction, individuals uphold a fundamental aspect of their faith and demonstrate reverence and obedience to Allah, enhancing the spiritual significance and efficacy of their prayers.

How a Muslimah Should Carry Herself

Shy : it will save her fitnah (temptation).

Quiet : she should not be loud, especally in public.

Be unknown : does not seek popularity. Unheard of to the creation, but known by Allāh ﷻ and His angels.

Dress modestly : she covers her awrah, has haya' (shyness), and does not display for herself for everyone to see.

Feminine : not a feminist. She follows the laws ordered by Allāh ﷻ, not the laws of man.

Does not seek attention : not desire for attention or recognition. Pleases the Creator, not the creation.

Has self-respect : focuses on guarding and preserving herself.

Stays at home : prioritize home life, only goes out when necessary. She travels with a mahram for safety. And she covers her awrah when going out.

How a Muslim Man Should Carry Himself

Modest : follows the Islamic guidelines on covering the male awrah, and lowers his gaze.

Humble : pratices humility, avoiding arrogance and riya' (showing off).

Respects women : treats all women with kindness and respect, not just those who he's attracted too.

Pious : devotes himself to worship and follows Islamic teachings, and the Quran & Sunnah.

Responsible : takes responsibility for his actions and fulfills his obligations as a Muslim man.

Exemplary : strives to be a positive role model for others, and follows the way of Rasulullah ﷺ.

Has gheerah : he is not dayooth (cuck), he has protective jealousy over his womenfolk.

Daily Reminders.

Executive dysfunction isn't being lazy. You're disabled.

Parents should treat their kids with respect. Not as pet projects to project their dreams onto.

Intent matters in anything and everything.

Organized Religion has caused a lot of damage. Christianity and Islam in particular. You're not obliged to explain to anybody your disdain for either. Faith is separate from Religion.

2025 is ragebait. overcome it through Spite and Whimsy.

Comfort characters are more than pixels on a screen. They can be a lifeline to some. Do not allow anyone to diminish their worth to signal virtue about the value of "real people." because the feelings fiction brings you are equally as real.

Stand your ground no matter what depending on how much of your safety or comfort you're willing to sacrifice for the end game.

Survivorship status is no crutch or badge it's a part of you and it's different for each one of us. Someone's performative critique pointing and using someone's status to devalue them based on their own selfishness and inability to process their misery - usually from the shadows defines them and not you. Respect yourself and your journey. Move. Forward.

Being angry is okay. Being upset is okay. Crying is okay. Hating is okay. Feelings of any type are equally important and should be safe to process with true friends. Nobody who loves you will keep a record of your self expression to later try use against you.

Everything you think you know. You often don't. When you feel an expert in something it's the wonder of diving deep into something and being fascinated. The Dunning Kruger Effect takes effect here. Ancient philosopher Socrates said it best. "All I know is I know nothing"

In juxtaposition to the point above. Acknowledge your skills and capabilities. The above quote doesn't mean you're ignorant. It means there's always so much more to know. The universe is a prime example. Humans. Fickle as they are have already made so many theories with the very limited technology compared to what's needed to traverse it. In such few years. It's just as understood though that many of these will be disproven as hypothesis always undergo that process in which they're tested. Should they last they're close to fact as possible.

You don't need to like people. You don't need to care if a lot of people don't like you. Existing for the world is the opposite of self actualization. If you are loved and love those worth it to you, the rest is noise. Your journey is yours to walk and live. Anybody trying to torpedo it becomes a simple obstacle.

That said. Don't hurt those who don't deserve it. Being kind isn't about platitudes or weakness. Be a monster to monsters, be sweet to sweet people, discern the difference between anger and malice, too, it's about being self aware and aware of others.

You'll meet once in a blue moon people who don't appear human. This isn't metaphysics but just special individuals that don't fit any personality type or anything you've heard of. I'm one of those myself. There's not many in the world but it starts intuitively since little and develops from understanding the world and universe.

Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of #Iran concerning the #UnitedStates military aggression against Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran condemns in the strongest possible terms, the United States’ brutal military aggression against Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities—a grave and unprecedented violation of the fundamental principles of the Charter of the United Nations and the international law. The war-mongering and lawless regime of the United States of America is held fully responsible for the dangerous consequences and far-reaching implications of this egregious act of aggression and heinous crime.

The U.S. military aggression against the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of a UN member state—carried out in collusion with the genocidal Israeli regime—once again laid bare the depth of depravity that governs American foreign policy and revealed the extent of hostility harbored by the U.S. ruling establishment against the peace-seeking and independence-loving people of Iran.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is resolved to defend Iran's territory, sovereignty, security and people by all force and means against the United States' criminal aggression.

The U.S. unlawful attack on Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities, which occurred in the early hours of the 10th day of Israel’s military aggression against Iran, has unequivocally exposed Washington’s criminal complicity with the Zionist regime in orchestrating and waging a war against Iran. This act of aggression, perpetrated by a permanent member of the Security Council, against Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities constitutes not only a flagrant breach of the UN Charter—especially the prohibition of the use of force under Article 2(4) and the obligation to respect states' territorial integrity and sovereignty—but also a violation of the UN Security Council Resolution 2231 and a devastating blow to the global non-proliferation regime.Silence in the face of such blatant aggression would plunge the world into an unprecedented level of danger and chaos.

The Islamic Republic of Iran reminds the #UnitedNations, the Security Council, the UN Secretary-General, the International Atomic Energy Agency (#IAEA), and other relevant international bodies of their responsibilities to take urgent and decisive action in response to this appalling breach of international law. As a founding member of the United Nations, the Islamic Republic of Iran calls on the Organization and its responsible member states to fulfill their responsibilities in the face of the United States’ blatant unlawful unilateral acts against Iran. We urge the UN Security Council to convene an emergency session to unequivocally condemn this criminal act of aggression by the United States against Iran and to hold the United States accountable for its egregious violation of the fundamental principles of United Nations Charter and of the norms of international law.

The responsibility of the IAEA and its Director General—who, through evident bias in favor of warmongering parties, paved the way for this recent catastrophe—is now clearer than ever. We call on the IAEA Board of Governors to immediately convene and carry out its legal responsibility in response to this dangerous U.S. attack on Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities, all of which have been under the Agency’s full safeguards and monitoring.

The world must not forget that it was the United States that, in the midst of a diplomatic process, betrayed diplomacy by supporting the genocidal and lawbreaking Israeli regime to impose a war of aggression on the Iranian nation. Now, in completion of that regime’s unlawful and criminal acts, the United States itself has launched a dangerous war against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

It has now become abundantly clear to all that the very regime which enjoys permanent membership in the Security Council is beholden to no principle or morality and will stop at no illegality or crime to serve the aims of a genocidal, occupying regime.

[hero-israel]

#4 sounds like white people at the end of slavery… “we didn’t want to end it because what if there’s retaliation? There have already been slave riots. Imagine what would happen if we gave them freedom or if we became the minority?” It’s not speculative it actually happened the fears had basis. That’s what number four sounds like. It also feels like you only care about one view point like you expect me to believe y’all are perfect victims that did one thing in retaliation?

#4 sounds like that to you because you are an American who thinks the whole world is America and all history must be the same as yours. So you should start by asking yourself what it is in your cultural upbringing, and what in the media you consume, that has you automatically believing the worst possible claims against Jews, to the point of seeing it as understandable for us to be mass murdered.

Jews did not - and do not - want to live in an Arab or Muslim majority society not because of any issues related to "slave uprisings" you are teleporting into this discussion, but rather because Jews had already been brutally oppressed, persecuted, and genocided by Arabs and Muslims for 1,000+ years before Israel or political Zionism were ever invented. Mohammed himself got his hands dirty with this, wiping out the Jews of Yathrib and renaming the gore-drenched rubble into something called "Medina." No less a source than Maimonides wrote in 1172 "God has entangled us with this people, the nation of Ishmael, who treat us so prejudicially and who legislate our harm and hatred…. No nation has ever arisen more harmful than they, nor has anyone done more to humiliate us, degrade us, and consolidate hatred against us... We bear the inhumane burden of their humiliation, lies and absurdities, being as the prophet said, ‘like a deaf man who does not hear or a dumb man who does not open his mouth’.... Our sages disciplined us to bear Ishmael’s lies and absurdities, listening in silence, and we have trained ourselves, old and young, to endure their humiliation, as Isaiah said, ‘I have given my back to the smiters, and my cheek to the beard pullers.’”

Because there is a long history of this, there is much you can read about it, if you care.

Some very random examples:

The "badge of shame" was invented in medieval Baghdad, only later migrating to Europe

Life for Jews in Yemen: The Jews of Yemen were treated as pariah, third-class citizens who needed to be perennially reminded of their submission to the ruling faith…The Jews were considered to be impure, and therefore forbidden to touch a Muslim or a Muslim’s food. They were obliged to humble themselves before a Muslim, to walk on his left side, and to greet him first. They were forbidden to raise their voices in front of a Muslim. They could not build their houses higher than the Muslims’ or ride a camel or horse, and when riding on a mule or donkey, they had to sit sideways. Upon entering a Muslim quarter, a Jew had to take off his footgear and walk barefoot. No Jewish man was permitted to wear a turban or carry the Jambiyyah (dagger), which was worn universally by the free tribesmen of Yemen. If attacked with stones or fist by Islamic youth, a Jew was not allowed to defend himself. Further, the Jews were forced to wear sidelocks or peots. The wearing of such long and dangling peots “was originally a source of great shame for the Yemenites. It was decreed by the imams to distinguish the Jews from the Muslims”. More degrading and insulting decrees to the Jews were the Atarot (Headgear) and Latrine Decrees. The former was a seventeenth-century decree forbidding the Jews to wear a headcovering or turbans. The Latrine Decree was a nineteenth-century edict in which the Jews were forced to clean out public toilets and remove animal dung and carcasses from the streets. Another discriminatory edict was the Orphan Decree which gave the Zaydis the right to convert to Islam any child under the age of thirteen whose father is dead. Further, evidence by a Jew against a Muslim was invalid and a “Jew was forbidden to pass a Muslim to his right, and whoever did so, even unwittingly, could be beaten without trial; the Jews were forbidden to make their purchases before the Muslims had completed theirs; a Jew entering the house of an Arab or the office of an official was only allowed to sit down in the place where the shoes were removed” . Tudor Parfitt summarizes some of these laws in the following: [the Jews] were required not to insult Islam, never strike a Muslim, or to impede him in his path. They were not to assist each other in any activity against a Muslim…They were not to build new places of worship or repair existing one…They were not to pray too noisily or hold public religious processions. They were not to wink. They were not to proselytize. They were not to bear arms. They were required to dress in a distinctive fashion in order not to be mistaken for a member of the Muslim occupying forces. In other words dhimmis had all the times to behave themselves in an unostentatious and unthreatening manner, one appropriate to a defeated and humbled subject people. They were to avoid the slightest show of triumphalism and they were forbidden any activity that could lead to proselytization. Yemenite Jews were “excluded as it almost always…from affairs of state, and from the great institutions of the country”

1941 Farhud pogrom (Iraq)

1929 Hebron Massacre ("They cut off hands, they cut off fingers, they held heads over a stove, they gouged out eyes. A rabbi stood immobile, commending the souls of his Jews to God – they scalped him. They made off with his brains. On Mrs. Sokolov’s lap, one after the other, they sat six students from the yeshiva and, with her still alive, slit their throats. They mutilated the men. They shoved thirteen-year-old girls, mothers, and grandmothers into the blood and raped them in unison....")

1921 Jaffa Riots

1920 Nebi Musa Riots

1910 Shiraz Blood Libel (Iran) ("In the middle of the 19th century, J. J. Benjamin wrote about the life of Persian Jews: "…they are obliged to live in a separate part of town…; for they are considered as unclean creatures… Under the pretext of their being unclean, they are treated with the greatest severity and should they enter a street, inhabited by Mussulmans, they are pelted by the boys and mobs with stones and dirt… For the same reason, they are prohibited to go out when it rains; for it is said the rain would wash dirt off them, which would sully the feet of the Mussulmans… If a Jew is recognized as such in the streets, he is subjected to the greatest insults. The passers-by spit in his face, and sometimes beat him… unmercifully… If a Jew enters a shop for anything, he is forbidden to inspect the goods… Should his hand incautiously touch the goods, he must take them at any price the seller chooses to ask for them... Sometimes the Iranians intrude into the dwellings of the Jews and take possession of whatever please them. Should the owner make the least opposition in defense of his property, he incurs the danger of atoning for it with his life... If... a Jew shows himself in the street during the three days of the Katel (the start of Muharram)…, he is sure to be murdered")

1905-12 Jerusalem: repeated Arab mob attacks against Jews who dared to try to sit in chairs near the Western Wall (it was intolerable for Jews to be seen in comfort at a holy site)

1840 Damascus Blood Libel (Syria)

1839 Allahdad Pogrom (Iran)

1834 Hebron Massacre

1834 Looting of Safed

1800s Morocco - Jews were forbidden to wear shoes

1700 Jerusalem oppression / apartheid: ("Muslims are very hostile to Jews and inflict upon them vexations in the streets of the city… the common folk persecute the Jews, for we are forbidden to defend ourselves against the Turks or the Arabs. If an Arab strikes a Jew, he (the Jew) must appease him but dare not rebuke him, for fear that he may be struck even harder, which they (the Arabs) do without the slightest scruple...")

1679 Mawza Exile (Yemen)

1660 Destruction of Safed

1500s Iran: ("After the ascension of Shah ‘Abbas II the Jews of Isfahan faced a lot of persecution. Most communities were forced to convert to Islam. Furthermore those who refused to convert would have most of their inheritance taken away as the inheritance laws at the time allowed for those who converted to Shia Islam to inherit the property of non-Muslim family members. Some communities did not convert and were thus forced to wear a special badge to show that they were Jewish. The maltreatment of the Jews weakened their community ties and influence throughout the region. By 1889 there were only around four hundred Jewish families left in Isfahan and most very poor.... by the middle 20th century 80% of the Jews of Isfahan lived on the verge of poverty.")

There's so much more I really don't know where to start or where to end. Afghanistan revoked all Jewish citizenship in 1933. Turkey banned all Jewish names and held massive antisemitic pogroms in 1934. Iraq banned Hebrew schools and Hebrew names in 1936, pogroms throughout Libya 1945, Syria fired all Jewish government employees 1946. Tripoli pogrom 1785. Algiers 1805. Cairo 1844. Istanbul 1870. Safed 1517 and 1799. Jerusalem 1665 and 1720. Granada Massacre 1066. Fez Massacre 1033. How many Wiki links do you want, how many textbooks?

This is an old, old conflict, and the Americanized "colonizer / slave plantation" frame is off-topic.

Explaining Sahih Muslim Book 2 - Hadith 33-43

Explaining Sahih Muslim Book 2 – Hadith 33-43 Chapter 9: The obligation of washing the feet completely. Salim, the freed slave of Shaddad, said: I came to ‘A’isha, the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), on the day when Sa’db. Abi Waqqas died. ‘Abd al-Rahman b.

🇮🇱 On this day 58 years ago, Jerusalem—the Old City and the Western Wall—was liberated from Jordanian occupation. With courage and noble spirit, Israeli fighters raised the Israeli flag on the Temple Mount and declared: "The Temple Mount is in our hands."

Since the founding of the State of Israel, Islam, Arab states, and terrorist organizations and regimes among them have declared all-out war on the State of Israel and its Jewish citizens. Jews have since been viewed as occupiers and a foreign presence in a conquered land—land which, according to their belief, is entirely Waqf (Islamic trust) land. Muslims, by religious obligation, are called to wage Jihad to liberate the holy land from the hands of the Jewish infidels.

One must not even for a moment think that this is a solvable conflict—that if we only offer better living conditions, land, and an equal division between the two peoples (what the so-called "peace advocates" call "two states for two peoples"), there could be peace. This is not a conflict with a solution; it is a religious war, a Jihad, a war of annihilation against the State of Israel, which is seen as a thorn in the eye of Islam and the Arab world. They have never recognized its existence and never will. They will always seek ways to destroy a state whose existence they refuse to acknowledge.

As Jerusalem is called “City of Zion,” it is our eternal capital. Without it, we have no right to exist—as Jews and as Zionists.

Jerusalem, our eternal capital—forever!

Happy Jerusalem Day!
