http://victoria.indymedia.org/news/2005/09/43671.php The ADL & AJC could have said 'we support the demo, despite some of its leaders.' But American Zionism's leaders insist on proving Euripides right: "Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad." Now there is no evading discussion of Black/Jewish relations & Israel/Palestine. Thanks, Abe. "Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad." The Millions More Movement & Zionism By Lenni Brenner The Millions More Movement continues to grow, 10 years after Louis Farrakhan's 1995 Million Men's March drew hundreds of thousands of Black males to Washington. The MMM has called a three-day event, October 14-1…

Palestine and Afghanistan is happening simultaneously. How much is the world talking about Afghani Hazara Shi'as? Even shi'as are doing Palestine Palestine all day. Do the followers of Ahlulbayt (عليهم اسلام) don't have any value?

I have a basic understanding that a lot of Syrian refugees/expatriates have a sour opinion of Bashar Al Assad, whereas (as a Shia) I have a lot of friends that support his cause. Many Syrians claim that he is a ruthless dictator that attacks his own people, but it is apparently proven with statistics that he is voted into office by the people? I don’t know what caused Syria’s destruction post 2010, so I’d like someone to try and discuss some facts and opinions to help me understand. References to go into detail would be highly appreciated.

Reminds of when the US military attacked al-jazeera and other media outlets in Iraq. Media can be used to control people and portray the truth. These days powers that be want to take out any divergent opinions. It is intelligent indeed, but ethically, it is absurd. https://www.rt.com/news/523629-gaza-alshourouk-tower-collapse-video/

Interesting article debunking the myths that Covid 19 was man made. It's a heavy, but fairly short read. The conclusion is that the vast majority of scientists (virologist, i.e. those who study viruses for a living) believe that the virus originated in an animal, and jumped to humans, and it wasn't man made in a lab. In other words, if you hear the sounds of hoofs, think horse not T-Rex. Scientific experts in virology found it very unlikely that gain-of-function experiments could create a virus similar to SARS-CoV-2. The simplest explanation—the hypothesis that requires the least “ifs” and “maybes”—is that SARS-CoV-2 is the product of natural selection in the wild a…

The month of Shahr Ramadan is fast approachings and as most of you know the situation in Yemen is very dire. There are 6 million at risk of starvation and many will not have the means to break their fast. Living in the West, myself as well as many other brothers and sisters would like to send support to our brothers and sisters there but the problem is that it seems everyone and their brother is collecting money for Yemen, but how much of that aid is really reaching the people who need it. Can some brothers and sisters with first hand knowledge of the situation (those who live in Yemen or who have actually spent time 'on the ground' amoung the people who need it) rec…

as-salaamu alaikum, This looks like an admission of defeat by as-saudiya. Not only sent a delegation but also are in favor of having Syria back in the arab league. No wonder Israel is desperately striking out again. I am not naive to think Assad is a saint, but I think he is always a better choice than the 'moderate' so called rebels Obama and Hillary's era CIA implanted. https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/202105041082801715-saudi-delegation-meets-with-syrian-president-in-damascus---reports/

We all know that our imam got into occultation and hidden From the human eye aswell From the djins. Some say he walks between us just like a normal human being but he isnt getting recognized that he is the imam. While there are some beliefs that he can also be invisible and as a argument being used that he is not only hidden from human eye but also from the eyes of the djins, so is he in a different dimension or not? ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Dr. Jalali: A small number of Muslims believe that the Imam of the Age is the son of Imam Hasan 'Askari who was born in the year 256 AH/843 CE. However, they say that he has…

post1300hrs, Friday(afternoon!) 13Oct17 The nutworks ABC and CBS have carried live reports of Pres. Trump announcing his decision not to "re-certify" the nuclear development agreement with lran. China, Russia and the EU have announced they will continue with this agreement. Nearly coincident with Trump's press conference, The Atlantic published online this article dated yesterday, 12Oct17: https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2017/10/iran-deal-next/542379/ which explains the mechanisms involved in Trump's action.

Here's the news: https://in.news.yahoo.com/saudi-arabia-includes-ramayana-mahabharata-in-new-curriculum-110900169.html So, in a way, they are saying: "If our sect, the wahhabism, is too shallow for you and you see no soul-spirituality in it. Then don't become a traditional sunni-sufi or dive into the vast ocean of Irfan in Shia. Become a Hindu instead" So; they are introducing Yoga and Ayurveda instead of Sufi Dhikr, Mawlid Gatherings, Whirling Dervishes, Matam Ceremonies etc..

I wonder how this will play out, especially in the context of Imam Mahdi. I personally find it difficult to imagine Iran's situation improving until Imam Mahdi is here or near. As they bear the flag of truth in this wicked world, they will be trashed and insulted and dragged through the mud. So this is all very confusing. Interested in your thoughts.

In the decades long stand-off between US and IRI, critics of Yankee imperialism cite the origins, not to the Embassy hostage crisis not long after the 79 revolution, but justifiably point to the CIA backed coup against populist prime minister Mohammed Mossadegh in 1953. Seldomly discussed is the alleged CIA links and involvement that the pre-revolutionary clergy had in the coup. Namely Ayatullah Khomeini's predecessor, Ayatullah Kashani. Which appears to be well-documented: https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/06/20/64-years-later-cia-finally-releases-details-of-iranian-coup-Iran-Tehran-oil/ https://nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-book/Iran/2018-03-07/new-…

this got first published on 2013!! (we are now 8+ years further) During the US occupation of Iraq, it was routine to torture Iraqis in prisons like Abu Ghraib whose prison guards were using tactics learned in Israeli training camps as Robert Fisk pointed out in ‘Abu Ghraib torture trail leads to Israel’; one of the most baffling questions asked during interrogation was “Where is the man called Imam Mahdi where is he hiding?” According to Mohabat News a pro –Israel Iranian Christian news agency, the fear of the hidden Imam is so credible that they posted news of how the CIA and MI6 have been going to Iraq for the past 20 years to get information about imam …

Why did this become such a huge news? this is not the first time a black man has died. Black men are shooting each other on a daily basis. What happened to corona social distancing? if this is a staged event, what could the possible reasons be? Divergence? divergence from what? hate war? police state? more surveillance? more gun laws? Is there something else going on in the world that the media/ elites don't want us to pay attention to? Don't forget, that most if not all media companies share holders are the elite playing their games behind the scenes. Don't belive me? check the parent companies of daughter companies and check the o…

Alhamdolellah. There are reports that Iranians in Syria fired Missiles on Israeli Nuclear facilities in reaction to Israelis bombing Iranian forces in Syria and the attack on Natanz Nuclear facility. I saw the facebook posts on Israeli Nuclear Facilites burning, but I can't copy it.

At least two people have been killed in an industrial town in Oman, after police fired rubber bullets on anti-government protesters. The demonstrations occurred on Sunday, in the town of Sohar, where the military moved in to secure the area, witnesses told the Reuters news agency. Protesters had gathered to demand political reforms, and a witness said that "two people died after police fired rubber bullets in the crowd". Basma al-Rajhi, a political activist, told Al Jazeera that protesters had gathered from all over the country to demand reforms, and that tear gas was also used to break up the demonstrations. "Demonstrations were also held [in the city of] Salalah," she s…

which is the most religious country on earth in that poll? I only put these countries based on what others considered what is the most religious country from what I saw on other platforms. I also only put Muslim countries as other countries have been westernised and become less religious.

Poor Saudis lost some men: After confirming intelligence about a camouflaged terrorist camp in the Syrian desert, the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out the airstrike, and destroyed two terrorist structures, “up to to 200 militants, 24 pickups with heavy machine guns, as well as about 500 kg of ammunition and components for creating improvised explosive devices,” Rear Admiral Aleksandr Karpov, deputy head of the the Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria [RRCS], told reporters on Monday. https://www.rt.com/russia/521535-airstrike-palmyra-syria-militants/

I am guessing that this is the problem. One of the main reasons why pornography and looking at these kinds of images is haram. One of the things it does it to de sensitize a man to the point where, if he doesn't stop, he cannot get aroused by normal things, like relations with his wife, and must seek more and more extreme forms of imagery to get aroused. Many times, this leds to more haram acts like zina, seeing prostitutes', etc. It can also lead to other, more extreme things which I don't want to mention. I am not saying this is the case with him, and it may not be the case, since I don't know anything about your situation, besides the few facts that you have posted. The main way you can tell if this is the case is thru tracking his finances. All these 'services' cost money, and some are quite expensive. If you see large amounts of money disappearing and he is not willing to explain to you what happened, or his explanation does not make sense, then this is big red flag and I would actually think about getting about a divorce at that point. I am hoping this is not the case. May Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) help you. Salam.

I read this article that you posted. I grew up in Los Angeles in the late 80's early 90s during the epidemic of street gang violence in L.A., before the city became gentrified and noone except rich people could afford to live there. Anyway, this article reminds me exactly of the mentality of those gangs. There are only two differences. First, they identified based on gang affiliation, not religion. Second, they did not have access to billions of dollars and help from most of the government in the world. In the past, I couldn't imagine what would happen if these gangs had access to fighter jets, nuclear weapons, etc. Now I don't have to imagine, because I can see it with my own eyes. What is going on in Gaza now is exactly what would have happened. Even the killing of children can be justified with this mentality. I remember in those days when a child would get killed in a drive by shooting on the street. If you asked those gang members who did the shooting about this, they would simply say, 'Well we didn't try to kill that kid, they just got in the way. It was an accident'. i.e. collateral damage. Which is exactly what the Israeli military is saying today.

Assalamualaikum. My parents are unfortunately atheists. Obviously I, however, am Shi’i Muslim. I am reluctant to tell my parents that I pray, not from fear but just worry. I usually pray in a clean bathroom (it has no toilet) and it is not rare that I miss the fajr prayer. I have a younger brother and sister. I’m 13 years old so I don’t have much power. Can anyone give me some advice inshallah? Wassalam. -
