SubhanAllah Awwal your writing never fails to move the heart. It’s crazy this is the fourth(?) thing I’ve read just this week alone referring to the parallels between Surah Buruj and not just the atrocities in Palestine but for the global ummah— it just goes to show how the Qur’an stays relevant. And what a way to humanize all our martyrs. We see the images of these children circulating but their names are often forgotten until they become more statistics. JazakAllah khair for this powerful piece ✊🏼
The Truth... makes Believers of us all.... a global ummah, of Compassion and Goodness. It is indeed the only thing to believe in. Thank you so much for this 💚
On 29 January 2024, Hind Rajab’s car was hit by Israeli tank fire. Six members of her family died instantly. Hind, wounded and terrified, remained alive for hours, whispering into a phone with PRCS dispatchers: “I’m so scared… please come.”
The ambulance sent to save her never made it. It too was shelled and burned. The two medics inside were killed instantly. When rescue workers returned ten days later, they found Hind’s small body lying next to her cousin Layan. Their voices had gone quiet.

Please try to send as much as you can to Mona Ramadan’s gofundme account. She has notified us that she has been targeted by the Israelis for elimination.
That was all you could take from the post? There are differing reports about her age, depending on the sources you follow. The one I followed said she was 6. Yesterday she would have turned 7, so technically it’s true. She was about 5 years, 8 months and 26 days.
I'm actually crying... It brought some memories, hidden one. Thank you Awwal, this is amazing! 🤍
I’m sorry Mona. We will get Justice. Wait, with me. This is for you. For all of the children, all the families. All of us 🇵🇸
As salamu alaikum Wasia, it’s always a pleasure to hear from you 🤎🇵🇸
The Qur’an has all the answers.
We will keep praying, we keep fighting, we will keep striving—‘cause unlike these oppressors, we know what true victory is,
we believe.

So beautiful, so heartbreaking, and so inspiring.
This poem burnt my heart. Have you also performed it, perhaps? I think it would also be very powerful as a spoken word.
As one of the many people who converted to Islam since the beginning of this genocide, thank you for this beautiful piece of writing.

No you are wrong! She was killed by Israeli tank fire, not by a tank driving over the vehicle.

Exactly. May Allah have mercy on her and her family and re-unite us all in the highest levels of Jannah.

I don’t know you. I’ll confirm from Mona myself. Thanks.

The post was awesome, thank you.
