#What do Muslims Believe About the After life

[jacensolodjo]

I love certain people but if at any point the thought process is 'besides the invasion of Ukraine, russia is actually okay because it stands up to the USA/West etc.,', I'm gonna have to wonder where the FUCK y'all have been the past fucking 100+ years aka YOUR ENTIRE LIFE russia has been not okay.

I want y'all to think long and hard every time, EVERY TIME, russia is in opposition to something the USA/west does. (always be suspicious why they are against it. believe it or not a country isn't always against something because it is morally/ethically right to be against it. they are against it because they don't like the other country. Surprise! while you may shrug and say 'same difference' haha read on) and then WATCH WHAT THEY DO. you WATCH. they will do THE THING THEY JUST CHIDED THE WEST ON DOING. Maybe a month later, maybe two months. Who knows. BUT THEY WILL DO IT!! IT IS THEIR THING!!! Or even better, IN THEIR HISTORY they have done the exact fucking thing they just chided the west on doing. And no I'm not even gonna say 'oh a hundred years ago they did this thing'. But they did this thing they are chiding the west on within living memory. or are ACTUALLY ACTIVELY DOING IT!!! While saying to the world 'ohhhh bad evil West, you no good West, how AWFUL!!!' They will shake their finger about war crimes and GUESS WHAT THEY ARE DOING RIGHT NOW??? They don't get to sit there and say SHIT while they do the same thing they're saying is bad. Any other country pulls that, they get hung out to dry. russia does it? Why is it okay?

It's called fucking whataboutism and it is still alive and well in russia. It was invented there and you are FALLING FOR IT EVERY FUCKING DAY. Because why? Russia is not your friend. Russia is killing the people you say you care about. Russia is killing people. EVERY DAY. Just because one day it also says it is against the shit you are does not mean you start going "yay russia! you tell 'em russia!"

Russia knows what you dislike about your own damn country, about the West, and it mocks you for agreeing with it for going 'bad West'. You earn points with absolutely no one. You merely look silly when, inevitably, russia does the bad things it does later after you have praised it for saying the same things you do. When it was advantageous for it to go 'bad West'. Or when it does something politically that you say is awful when the West does it. Because, again, it is STILL bad no matter what country does it.

After it has murdered Ukrainians. Chechens. Georgians. Siberians. Jews. Muslims. Gay people. Trans people. Black People. Asian people. The people you claim to give a fuck about. The people it has been murdering for decades. For centuries.

You want to sit there and go 'yay russia' because it happened to go 'naughty West'? Imperialism is Imperialism is Imperialism. Just cause it's a different flavor of it doesn't mean a goddamn fucking thing. It does the same bad shit you hate the West for doing. Russia just wears an ushanka while doing it.

I grew up with 'russia bad'. Idk when things stopped with 'russia bad'. But can we go back to 'russia bad'? Being anti-USA/West does not make some entity good. Take that fucking thought out of your head. russia bad. say it with me. russia. bad.

#russia is a terrorist state #altho when i say 'certain ppl' i mean in my life in meatspace lol

One Piece Characters w/ an S/O who celebrates Ramadan

Characters: Luffy, Sanji, Crocodile, Robin

Rating: SFW

Notes: Muslim!GN!Reader. So yeah, obvy talking about religious beliefs and practices- if those make you uncomfortable please feel free to skip <3

A/n: this is for me and the three other Muslim OP fans here just vibing 😂 cultural notes at the bottom in case you didn't know/just curious about some of the terms here.

Luffy 

Absolutely does not get it, I think he has a heart attack hearing the words “no food or water” and does not listen to anything else after. 

“WHY CANT WE EAAAAT??? WHAT????” 

Blows his mind you would do this… he’s trying his best, poor guy <3

I GOTTA STRESS HE IS TRYING- HE WANTS TO DO THIS WITH YOU 

But you know, he’s Luffy, so that means after an hour or two he gives up and just raids the kitchen. 

Task failed but you know he’ll always stay up late for iftar and wake up early for suhur. 

Sanji 

He at first thought you were trying to- god forbid- starve yourself or diet and nearly screamed. 

When you explain the reasoning, he’s touched and wants to support you! So that means he’s absolutely doing everything he can to make sure you’re hydrated and getting all the nutrients you can get whenever you can. 

He makes you a completely separate dish from the others while you’re working or resting (so your food is fresh and ready when you break your fast!). 

Self-indulgent thought he’s so so so on top of things when it comes to your meals in general, he will never put wine or meat in your meals, and he makes to sure clean the area and use separate pans for when he cooks your meals. Absolutely refuses to give you anything that goes against your beliefs (I need him in my life). 

Please, he’s buying you dates and getting up with you to make sure you’re drinking plenty of water and eating right. Sleep schedule be damned, he’s not messing around with your health!!!!

Crocodile 

Now, he’s one of the few who actually knows what Ramadan is- he’s made Alabasta his “home” for a while and has participated in many celebrations or events to keep up appearances.

He kinda just humors you at first like “yeah, yeah, go be spiritual or whatever” and chuckles at you with that sexy voice of his. 

But he sees how dedicated you are, maybe sees you reading or praying and okay… his heart kinda melts. He’s never really believed in such things, not finding it useful for him, but seeing you just kinda makes him curious. 

Easily can fast alongside you, he just doesn’t make a big deal of it and insists that it’s simply due to him ‘not feeling hungry’ or ‘finding it boring to eat alone’ (sure, sure you big tsun). 

Makes sure your chefs are giving you only the best and freshest foods possible- he’s especially harsh about the food when it comes to Ramadan. 

I’m trying so hard not to inject my MENA!Croc addled brain into this piece so so hard I AM TRYING OKAY GUYS 

But can you imagine him going to the mosque with you or listening to you discuss or read the Quran and he’s just playing it cool but his eyes are so drawn to you and he wonders if you’re an angel and that he really, really does not deserve someone like you because he’s done so many bad things and wheeeeeeze-

Robin 

She’s an elegant and refined woman, one who will 100% want to be involved in your traditions. 

She finds your beliefs fascinating and takes it upon herself to join you in your Ramadan. 

It took her a bit of getting used to, but after a few days, it quickly grew on her. 

Robin likes having tea with you during suhur, alongside a few fresh fruits Sanji had gotten. Light meals are best for her and she prefers to enjoy your company and take it easy before the dawn. 

She likes to keep track of the days and times of when you two begin and break your fasts- she’ll make sure to keep note of the Shawwal moon so you two (and the rest of the crew) can celebrate the Eid together!

Since it’s a time of reflection, Robin decides to sit quietly and talk about her feelings and experiences with you. She did have some reservations and guilt that she was too “demonic” to celebrate this with you, but through your encouragement, she felt better and continued it alongside you. 

Oh, she loves getting the henna done, too. She makes sure to have lots of flowers on her arms and is in love with the patterns.

Cultural Notes: 

Ramadan is the 9th month of the Islamic calendar, which is based on the lunar cycle- hence why you’ll often see debates on when Ramadan starts/ends or why it begins about a week or two earlier than before, since the lunar calendar is shorter than the solar calendar (or Gregorian, the one we normally use). 

Muslims fast for a month from dawn until sunset (there are restrictions of course) so no water or food from that time. 

Sahur/Suhur/Suhoor: the meal you eat before the dawn comes. 

Iftar: the meal you eat to break your fast at sunset. 

Shawwal is the 10th month of the Islamic calendar, so Ramadan ends when you see the Shawwal moon that starts a new month. 

Eid: the big celebration that marks the end of Ramadan. Usually you go do a special prayer or have a big gathering with your family and enjoy yourselves.

Daily update post:

Yesterday, the IDF managed to prevent an independent Palestinian terrorist attack, by killing the would be terrorist on his way to execute his plan. Based on the type of weapons that were found on him, had he managed to carry out the attack, there probably would have been a lot of fatalities.

Also yesterday, the UN Security Council had an emergency session to discuss the UN report on the sexual violence of Hamas on Oct 7 and since (with the hostages). This was thanks to Israel asking several countries to request this session, and the US, the UK and France obliged. Believe it or not, more than 5 months after the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust and the single bloodiest day in the Israeli-Arab conflict, that was the FIRST time that the UN has met to discuss what happened to people in Israel on that day. Let it sink in that the UN has discussed earlier and more frequently the situation in Gaza, than the massacre that started it. And that the UN still doesn't consider Hamas a terrorist organization. Israel again asked for this to change during yesterday's session.

Remember how I wrote about Yussuf and Hamza al-Ziadna, 2 of the 3 Muslim Israeli hostages, still held in Gaza after more than 5 months? Well, yesterday at the UN, Ali al-Ziadna, Yussuf's brother and Hamza's uncle, confronted the Palestinian ambassador, demanding to know why the Muslim Israeli hostages have not been released to fast and pray during Ramadan, as all Muslims should get to, and how could Hamas call themselves Muslims... (I'll just correct one thing he said: while Hamas released 23 of its 32 Thai hostages without asking for anything in return, but as part of the November 2023 deal to release the Israeli hostages, 9 Thai citizens are still in captivity. I do not want anyone to forget these men, they must be released and reunited with their loved ones, too)

The BBC has already been accused by members of the British Parliament of being institutionally antisemitic. Now, it seems like the British broadcaster is insisting on further proving those accusations right, as its head chooses to defend the BBC's use of an unsubstantiated witness account from a "journalist" known to be working for Iran, and who has in the past praised terrorists killing Israelis (his testament matches Hamas' narrative) regarding the stampede incident in northern Gaza. But, you know. Good on the Jews and the Jewish state for controlling the media. *eyeroll*

This is 58 years old Rami Davidian.

He's a farmer from moshav Patish. On Oct 7, he got a message from a friend, asking Rami to save his kid, who was at the Nova music festival, where today we know was the single deadliest scene of all the place Hamas attacked during the massacre. Rami went in, and saved the kid and 12 others in his vehicle, while also directing others to moshav Patish. This led to more people hearing about it, and calling Rami as well, giving him details about their loved ones, and asking for his help in rescuing them. Rami went back in, again and again, to an active shooting scene controlled by murderous terrorists, for hours, and he kept getting people out. Once, to save the life of a young girl, he approached the terrorists, and speaking Arabic to them, he lied that he's a Muslim Arab like them who came to warn them of nearing soldiers, and that they must flee, leaving their victim behind. Rami didn't know this, but on that day, many actual Israeli Muslim Arabs were murdered by Hamas for "working for the Jews," which the terrorists claimed made these Arabs even worse than the Jews. But miraculously, the lie worked for Rami. Once the IDF arrived and Rami was no longer needed to save the living, he helped with the identification and bringing to burial of the dead. After everything he had done for others on that day, risking his own life repeatedly, 2 days ago Rami gave an interview, and said that it's the survivors of Hamas' sexual violence who are the real heroes. Thank you for everything you did and who you are, Rami. Together with other people who risked themselves to save others, whether Jewish or not, you are gibor Yisrael (hero of Israel).

This is 19 years old Itay Chen.

He's one of the Israeli hostages that in the past 5 months, I have heard his parents speaking about their fears over not having gotten a sign of life, and hopes for his release countless times. As Itay has an American citizenship, they even personally met with Biden to plea for their son's life. Today we got the announcement that he had in fact been murdered on Oct 7, and it's his body that's being held captive by Hamas. I have no doubt that Israel will still do whatever it can to get it back, and allow him to be brought to kever Yisrael (Hebrew term for Jewish burial. Literally: Israel grave), and it would even release convicted terrorists to make that happen (it has done this before), but obviously the "price" for a living hostage is higher, not to mention that the thought of someone alive and suffering in captivity comes with a greater psychological pressure and urgency, so Hamas intentionally and cruelly let his parents spend months not knowing, hoping for what Hamas already know was impossible, fly all over the world, and beg for something that no one could give them. I just have no words for this type of ruthlessness.

May his memory be a blessing.

I loved your Ramadan works with the JJK characters. It's so nice to see another muslimah who writes for JJK :)). I am not sure if you are still actively posting, but would you consider writing a piece with the cast's reaction to the hijab and abaya? JazakAllah!

jjk characters with a muslim/hijabi reader [gojo edition]

gojo x reader [platonic or romantic it's open to interpretation]

w/c: 955 words

a/n: i got so carried away writing gojo's i realised if i added more characters, it'd be an incredibly long post. so i took them out and i'm gonna post them over the next couple weeks <33 so far i have megumi, nanami, itadori and nobara lmk if you want anymore characters :)) also guys pls feel free to send requests/suggestions :))

also anon you're the sweetest person every thank you so so much you've single handedly given me motivation to keep writing and ive got more works coming out. i hope you're having an amazing day inshaAllah bestie 💗

Gojo definitely thinks you’re doing a cosplay of some sort. It’s not uncommon in certain parts of Tokyo, so it’s safe to assume so most of the time. Even he’s been mistaken for Kakashi cosplays a lot of the time, with his black get-up and blindfold.

But then he sees you wearing different colour hijabs and abayas, and sometimes even a cute lil jilbabs and it confuses him. Suddenly, the thought occurs to him that maybe you’re not in a 24/7 cosplay, like him, and actually just dress covered head to toe.

As soon as he reaches that epiphany you best believe he pesters you and badgers you for answers. “y/n are you cold? is that why you’re always dressed like that?”

At first, you think it’s funny to give him nonsensical answers because he keeps saying stupid things, but you realise he's being deadly serious. plus, he gets increasingly bothersome, so you eventually get annoyed from all his questioning and just tell him about how you’re a Muslim and observe hijab.

He actually takes it quite seriously and apologises for lowkey making fun of your shitty cosplay in his head. He’s ignorant, not prejudiced, so he defo takes it back and, for once, takes accountability and apologises for his actions. He’s personally not a believer, but he respects it.

Once, you complained about how expensive abayas were becoming and how you just wished someone would just buy you a whole wardrobe of them to all the students, and he happened to overhear.

Literally days later he’s at your door with multiple bags full of abayas and hijabs and all sorts of modest clothing. You’re completely shick shack shook and don’t know what to say. You defo cry and try to hide it with your headscarf.

He barges into your room (after making sure you’re fully covered, he's learnt from that mistake) and spends the next 5 or so hours showcasing each item and telling you where in the world he got it from, the materials and everything.

He has really good taste in colours and styles and knows what would look good on you. You’re literally set for life. Absolutely refuses to let you pay him back. Every single time you mention money, he shuts you down and changes the topic entirely.

In summer he’s shocked you look relatively calm and okay. He’s literally boiling his bum off with a tank top (I’m laughing at imagining Gojo in a white tank top like an immigrant dad lmaoo) and you’re looking as fresh as daisies with everything covered. He asks how you're not melting and you’re waffling to him about airflow and how it’s actually quite breezy, and you’re not wearing anything underneath, so it’s fine, and he stops breathing and short circuits.

He looks at you with his eyes wide, and his sun reddened face goes a shade darker. "You’re not wearing anything underneath?" He takes it the completely wrong way, and you realise what it sounds like, and you’re both a bumbling mess.

It's the first time anyone’s ever seen Gojo that flustered.

Also some quickfire headcanons:

He genuinely thought you slept and showered with your hijab on, so he burst into your room one day and you screamed and he immediately warped somewhere else when he saw you wearing pyjamas (he didn’t see anything above your clothed knees, he panicked and left so quickly plus he was scared to look).

Gets you cute little clips to put on your hijab. He thinks they’re pretty.

Is absolutely devasted you can’t have mochi and some other desserts because they have pork gelatine in them and he always tries to find vegan alternatives.

Purposefully steps on your abaya/dress when it's flowing and he's behind you to annoy you.

Has extra pins pinned onto his uniform for you just in case you need them.

This is a secret he’ll take to his grave, but he actually tried to make you one of his favourite desserts you couldn’t eat (he threatened the bakery for the recipe), but it went so disastrously wrong he gave up and didnt want to face the embarrassment.

I’m talking melted plastic in the oven, small kitchen fire, eyebrows singed, and potential carbon monoxide poisoning bad.

You wore this specific shade of light blue once with a cream khimar, and for some reason, he was absolutely obsessed with that outfit. It wasn't until Nobara pointed out that your outfit matched Gojo's colour scheme did he finally realise why <33

The abaya sizing really confused him and he was so baffled as to what the numbers meant. Wdym size 52 what does that even measure 😭😭

He was faffing about for 2 hours before he realised he could've just googled it, and he felt absolutely stupid about it.

Whenever he sees a bit of your hair accidentally peeking out he covers his eyes and screams at you to "cover yourself woman goddammit". He's so dramatic honestly.

Thinks it’s hilarious seeing you run in your abaya. He thinks its the funniest thing in the world.

Once (he's lying defo more than once) he was zoned out while watching you and his heart started beating faster when he realised how beautiful you are with your long dress blowing in the breeze and your hijab lightly fluttering. You looked ethereal. He didn't know what to think, and he pushed his feelings back down. Deep deep down.

He doesn't need unnecessary feelings complicating things, but for some reason, his heart still yearns for you.

He also makes terrorist jokes about you to you. I will not explain that one, but he 100% does.

[laineystein]

i personally don’t support war and find blindly serving any military awful. I don’t mean to be rude i just wonder why you think that defending israel is the only way to garuntee jewish safety? that feels like taking responsibility off of other countries and leaving diaspora jews vunerable. im really just anti military but this conflict has been awful and i hope for the safety of all jewish people israelis muslims and palestinians but no safety to a government of right wingers

I admire your bravery in reaching out when I don’t have anon turned on. Few would, so good on you.

First off, I’m not serving blindly. None of the soldiers I’m serving with are serving blindly. We all believe in what we’re doing and we’re going to keep doing it until the mission is done and all of our people are safe again. I could get into the nuances of conscription and reserves but I’m not going to. With confidence, succinctly, none of us are serving blindly. (I’m also employed by the IDF outside of reserves so I assure you that I, in particular, love my army and believe in what we stand for.)

I don’t *think* that defending Israel is the only way to guarantee Jewish safety. I know it is. We are a country surrounded by homicidal antisemites. Hamas has stated that they will continue doing what they did on October 7th until we cease to exist. There is no peace for the Israeli or Palestinian people with Hamas still in power. So we’re destroying their tunnels and we’re rooting them out and we’re here for our hostages. Let’s play devils advocate - if Israel didn’t exist do you all honestly think that Hamas and all other Iran proxies would just allow Jews and the Western world to live in peace? Because they wouldn’t. Y’all should be grateful that we’re here because if we weren’t, they’d be killing Jews elsewhere. Don’t let them fool you into believing this is about land. They. Hate. Jews. And Israel is the only place in the world where Jews can truly defend themselves. My grandfather survived the Holocaust BH and he always says that they didn’t have a way to defend themselves in the camps. They weren’t organized. They didn’t have weapons. They didn’t have the upper hand. Well now we’re organized and we’re armed and we’re trained. Never again will we be helpless - thanks to Israel.

“That feels like taking the responsibility off of other countries” - what responsibility? To protect Jews? To persecute Hamas? Feh! None of that will ever happen. Not once has any other country *saved* the Jewish people. And, actually, often times people are turning a blind eye to our persecution - like most of the world did on and after and ever since October 7th. Like they did during the Holocaust. Like they have every time Hamas and PIJ indiscriminately fire rockets at Israel. As I said, never again will our safety be in anyone else’s hands because the world has shown us time and time again that they do not care.

“Leaving diaspora Jews vulnerable” is an insane way to blame the victim. WE WERE ATTACKED. But do you think we needed to be attacked for people to hate Jews? No, this has just empowered them to do so out loud. There has always been a correlation between anti-Israel hate and violence against Jews in the diaspora. In May of 2021 when 4000+ rockets were fired into Israel, goyim in the diaspora took this as permission to act out their antisemitic fantasies. Again when WE WERE ATTACKED. Don’t forget - People were celebrating our massacre before Israel even set foot in Gaza. Don’t let the world fool you into thinking that Israel defending ourselves has created antisemitism in the diaspora, it’s only encouraged it.

I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt here and assume you are not Jewish. I don’t know how to explain this conflict to you - a conflict I have lived my entire life (like my parents and grandparents before me). I don’t know how to share my pain and grief and the pain and grief of my tribe in a way that will make sense. But I’m done needing to justify my existence as a Jew. Israel is done justifying its existence as the homeland of the Jewish people. History has shown us that our survival is our responsibility and I/we won’t apologize for it. The same people that are too cowardly to stand up for us when our people are killed and raped can keep their mouths shut when we defend ourselves.

And it seems like maybe you didn’t read this post that I shared today which really would have answered a lot of this without me needing to go on a sleep deprived rant.

"What are y'doing?"

You shove past him and storm into the bedroom, grabbing a bag from the wardrobe and dropping it onto the bed. "I'm done. I'm fucking done."

"Are you serious?" Billy stands in the doorway with a red face and thin lips, watching you with wide eyes.

You spit the answer back at him. "Does it look like I'm joking?" You grab whatever you can from the draws next to your side of the bed and shove them into your bag without looking.

"Over this?"

"This? This? You've lost your fucking mind! I don't recognise you anymore!"

"Oh, c'mon, I was drunk, and no one got hurt-!"

"Those people woke up to find they've been victims of your stupidity, all because you believe bullshit you've read-"

"Give me a fucking break!" He slams his hand on the door frame, and his eyes blaze.

"You hitting that because you want to hit me?"

Billy slinks over to you and rips the bag from your hand. "Don't act like I'd ever lay a hand on you; you know I wouldn't."

"I don't know what you'd do anymore," you answer defiantly. "I didn't think you'd ever smash up a Muslim butchers, yet here we are!"

"For fuck's sake! Who cares? No one got hurt!"

You wrench the bag from his hands and throw in a couple of tops and trousers, before pushing past him to the bathroom. He dogs your steps.

"They're real people; you know that, right?"

"I'm sure they're insured. Everyone knows those people are tight with their money. Got their own banks with special rules and everything."

"Those people? Your brain's been rotted by those fucking pigs you call friends! I don't even recognise you half the time!" After grabbing your toiletries, you're back in the bedroom packing up phone chargers, your earring box, your hairbrush. Whatever you need for a few nights, before you come back to get the rest of your stuff.

He keeps close to you. Threatening you. Shadowing you. He's so tall. You hate him. You fucking love him. That's why this is so hard.

"I'm still me," he says lowly.

"Oh yeah? Prove it."

"How?"

"Get rid of those cunts rewiring your brain, and start giving a fuck about people again."

His lip twitches and he catches your arm, pulling you close to him. "I care about you."

With more strength than you realise you have, you press your hands against his chest and escape his clutches. "Not enough."

He follows you when you go into the living room. It's messy, covered in beer cans and food containers and papers and cables, and you let out a shout of frustration. "I hate it here! I fucking hate it!"

"If you hate it so much, why do you keep coming back?" he thunders.

You open your mouth to reply, but no words come. You know why. He knows why. It's pathetic, really. But you can't quit him. He poisons your life, and God, you love the way it tastes.

Fury flashes in his pretty eyes, the eyes that capture you every time. He smirks, but there's no humour in it. "That's what I thought. Can't stay away, can you? You know you're mine."

"Don't play that game," you warn.

"S'not a game."

Billy steps closer to you again, and something akin to dread rushes through you. "No, it's not. So fuck off."

"D'you hate me?"

You glare up at him. There's fire in you now, fire in your belly, in your eyes. "Yeah, I do."

"Liar."

You suddenly slap him, and he grunts as his head is knocked to the side. God, it feels good to do that. Even when he turns to look at you in shock, in disgust, it feels good. "I hate you."

When he grabs you by the waist and shoves you against the wall, it's not a surprise. That doesn't make it any less of a thrill. He runs his nose up your neck and inhales deeply. "So if I shove my hand against your pussy, I'll find you dry?"

"Don't fucking touch me!" You hit his chest to try to get him away from you, but he's stronger. He doesn't go to the gym anymore, but he's stronger. You grab his hair and pull, but he's stronger.

"This is what you want, huh?" His large hands push up your shirt and grasp without care at your breasts. It hurts. It's good. "To pretend you hate me and pretend you don't want this?"

"I don't want it!" A half lie. You shouldn't want it. You know you shouldn't.

"Oh yeah?" he grunts. One hand wraps around your throat, finger and thumb pressing against the edge of your jaw, and the other slips under your waistband. You clench your legs together in response - but he's stronger. The heat between them betrays you, and he wedges his fingers between your folds to find slickness gathering there. "Sure feels like you want it."

"That's got fuck all to do with you."

His eyebrows are raised as he looks down at you, towering tall. Sandy hair flops messily over his eyes, unkempt and greasy. He's disgusting. But you chase his hand.

"I think you like me like this." Dropping his voice, he runs his finger around your clit, as if you're in any way ready for that.

"Like what?" you hiss. "A fucking rapist?"

"No one's getting raped, baby. You want this. You want me to force you to stay."

"No, I don't!" But you grab his wrist to hold it in place. For a moment, it seems like he's taking your words to heart and so his fingers still, but you hold him fast to make sure they stay where they are.

Looking into your face, he grins coldly. "You're such a slut, aren't you? You gonna come on my fingers?"

"You wish! You couldn't make me come now if you tried."

The fingers on your throat tighten slightly, and they apply pressure to the thick veins under your skin. He will be able to feel how quick your pulse is getting. Billy leans his close facer to yours. "You think anyone will be able to make you feel like I do?"

You shake your head slightly. "No. That's the point."

"Hmm." His lip twitches in anger. And then his fingers are pressing against your soft folds, digging it, dragging nails down them, and your stifled groan makes his eyes glint. "You love being used however I want."

"No, I don't. I'm not your thing to play with."

Then, his hands are gone, and he presses the length of his body against yours, and you're trapped tight between him and the wall, and it feels crushing, it's overwhelming, it's stifling-

Billy bites your ear and blows into it. It makes your nipples hard. "Yes, you are. Always have been." He rolls his hips against you, and it presses his half-hard cock against your stomach. As you clench around nothing, a shiver runs through your body. Of course, he notices, and he grins. "See? You want me to use you like the whore you are."

"I'm not a whore," you rasp. "You never fucking paid me."

"Maybe I should have done. You suck my cock like a porn star. All needy and whimpering like you can't live without it."

"Get off me!"

But you grasp the back of his shirt and claw at the skin at the base of his spine. It's so soft there, the gentle peach fuzz comforting under your fingertips. He's still Billy, somewhere underneath it all. Maybe. He presses harder. It's difficult to breathe.

Messily, he licks against your ear and groans. The obscene sound makes your eyes roll back."You leave this flat, you're never coming back."

"Then let me go."

"Never."

You drag your nails over his skin. Red welts are left in the wake. "You're a monster."

"What does that make you, then?" Billy asks with a dry chuckle.

"Stop trying to turn this into a game."

He pulls back to look at you with hooded eyes, lips parted. "I already told you, this in't a game."

"Even if it was, you'd lose." Something comes over you, and you spit in his face. "Fucking loser. Freak."

It makes him snarl. It makes him rough. With all his strength, he turns you to face the wall and shoves down your trousers, your underwear. You can barely spread your legs before he slaps between them, a hard hand grasping your cunt from behind. He squeezes and you yelp in pain. A strong arm is pinned across the back of your shoulders to keep you in place.

Then he squeezes your clit. At this angle, it's caught between two fingers while his thumb shoves against your entrance. It stings, the pressure, but it's worse when he takes his touch away. "If I'm a freak, you're the pathetic slut who wants to get fucked. God, you can't help it, can you? Getting this wet for me?" You can hear him inhale deeply, and the wet noises of him licking your taste off his fingers. You struggle slightly against his firm hold, but it's half-hearted. More than anything, you just want him to touch you again. "God, you taste so good. You ready to take me like the little fuck toy you are?"

"No," you lie, again and again. "Billy, don't you dare-!"

With knees bent, he pushes down his grey joggers and pulls his cock free, and slides between your thighs from behind. "No one's gonna treat you like this."

"You're a fucking monster!" Leaning forward, you press your forehead against the wall. You clamp your legs shut and trap his cock between them, and he responds by shoving you harder against the wall.

"And you're a cunt. My cunt, every dripping inch of it. Spread your legs."

"Make me."

Billy twists the arm on your back to grab your hair instead. The pull on it hurts, makes your spine arch uncomfortably, and a needy whimper escapes you. Fuck. He doesn't need to know how good he's making you feel.

"That's all you ever want, isn't it?" he whispers against your ear. "Me to take away every last bit of your control until you're nothing but a fuck toy for me."

Having your head pulled back this far makes it hard to speak. Between your thighs, his cock can't move, and you can tell how irritated it's making him. "I don't want anything from you."

"Open your mouth."

Your lip curls. Even with your hair wrapped around his hand, you manage to shake your head. Insolence isn't kindly received, and so rough hands suddenly straighten you up and flip you so your back is against the wall again. His hand goes back to your face and he presses against your cheeks until it hurts so bad you can't do anything but open your jaw. Without hesistating, Billy spits into it, heavy eyes watching your mouth. It makes your knees fucking weak.

You want to whimper. You want to swallow. Every part of him is sacred, and you want to consume him whole. At any other time, you would.

His voice is a murmur. "Swallow."

To let you do it, he lets go of your jaw, but his touch does not stray far. It finds its place on your throat, hoping to feel you obey him. Instead, you spit his taste out onto the floor. He doesn't like that.

"You stupid bitch." Suddenly, his fingers are buried back against your cunt and he rubs cruel and wide circles around your clit, fingers digging into soft and swollen flesh.

So, you grab his flushed balls and squeeze and he yelps in surprise, in pain. The hand at your throat shoves your head against the wall. The other leaves your heated core and shoves down your trouers and underwear until theyre at your ankles. Whether you would allow him or not, he takes them off completely, and as he bends down to do so, you wonder if he'll kiss your cunt.

Billy looks at it with longing in his eyes, but then he glances up at your face and the softness is gone. "Don't even need me to spit on you here, do you? You're so wet already."

"Nothing to do with you," you lie again.

"You need me."

"I'd rather die."

With more strength than seems possible, he looms over you and hooks his arm under one thigh. It makes you reach up onto your toe desperately, and then his blunt head is pressing against you. He holds it there for a moment, a threat, a promise. "Say you need me."

You squrim away from him half-heartedly. It makes you sick to your stomach that he's right. "I hate you!"

"Say it!"

One hand grabs a fistful of his hair and yanks. The other claws at the small of his back in an attempt to pull him closer. And then he does. The intrusion hurts in the best way. Your mouth opens in a silent scream, your throat refusing to let the noise escape.

And then he moves.

Billy is relentless in his pace, slamming into you over and over again. He doesn't give you time to adjust, time to relax, he just takes and takes and takes.

"Mine," he grunts, voice shaking.

"No," you choke.

"Yes."

"Fucking bastard!"

Billy kisses your mouth messily before you have a chance to turn away. It's sloppy, wet, desperate. His tongue presses roughly past your teeth and it makes your stomach tighten. But still, you turn your face away to deny him, so he covers your cheek and neck in hot kisses instead.

"Mine," he grunts again against your ear.

"Not anymore."

He returns his hand to your cunt again and as he keeps a steady and fast pace that makes sweat break out on his brow, he rubs you fiercely. It makes your hands clench into fists.

"I'll keep you forever," he promises. His words are punctuated with rough thrusts. "I own you."

Words are so beyond you now. He's rough, he's possessive, and he's fucking right. You fling an arm around the back of his neck and hold him close as he fucks you like it's the first time, the last time. His pace gets faster, more erratic, and then the tell-tale gasps begin to come.

"Don't you dare!" you cry out.

"With me," he answers breathlessly.

"Make me!"

You feel him nod as you hold him close. He licks your ear, making your heart rush in your cunt, and he moans for you just as you like. It drives you higher along with his hand, and then there it is, that pressure in your stomach, the tension between your thighs that pushes you higher.

"Shit, shit, Billy, yes, yes-!"

"With me," he begs. "Cum with me, baby."

"No!" Yes. Yes, cum with him, please, please, please-

"That's it, ah-! Fuck, like that, baby, keep-! Fuck, I'm-!"

Billy's hips stutter and he shoves them against yours as his thights tremble. His orgasm forces him to his toes, and his hand shakes against your clit. It washes over him again and again, and as the last of his seed spurts inside you, you follow him into oblivion. This time, your scream is not silent.

Against the wall, he holds you safely. Your heartbeats are matched as your chests press together, only thin layers of cotton separating your skin there. Your breathing is in time with his, too. In, out. In, out.

He kisses your neck. It makes you squirm. "Let me go."

Carefully, he pulls out of you and sets your leg down. Smiling softly at you, he kisses your forehead. Already you can feel his seed trickling out of you, and it turns your stomach. You can't be here a second longer. It's fine, you can shower later, get his stench of you.

You'll never be free of it.

"I need you," he murmurs as you pull your underwear and trousers back on. Now, his touches are soft and searching, petting your hair. You slap his hand away. He frowns. "I'll never leave you, you know?"

"I know." You might escape his presence, but he has taken root in your heart, for good or evil. "But it's done."

His trousers are back over his hips, and as he ties the string, he looks up at you with wide eyes. "What?"

"I'm done with you, Billy. I know you love me, every inch of my soul, but it's not enough anymore."

Large hands grasp yours. He winds his fingers through yours, and you let him. "You're my one true love. You can't go."

"You can't stop me."

And then his face darkens. Your lips part, and slowly, his eyes open, he kisses you on your open mouth. Pulling away, he smiles slightly and it doesn't spread kindly across his face. "I can."

"What're you gonna do, Billy? Tie me to the fucking bed?"

His hands return to the laces of his trousers, and as if he's not even thinking about it, he undoes them and begins pulling them through the waistband. Your stomach drops. And he takes your wrist, and kisses it. "If that's what it takes. I'll keep you forever. I own you."

ID 1: Instagram post by @/therwees. It reads: “I do not envy those of you with the ability to look away, to "log off", to prioritize your "mental health" over bearing witness to genocide. one day you will be in the position to tell someone where you were when all this happened, when an entire people were wiped off the map - what you said, how you reacted, which congress people you called on to help stop it. and you'll have to tell someone - a daughter, a grandson, a niece or nephew, a boyfriend - that you couldn't even look. that you couldn't even give those people the easiest thing you could give them, which is an eyewitness testimony of their pain, their suffering, and the denial of their freedom.” End ID.

ID 2: “here is what you must know, deep down inside of you: that the only way you are to rationalize all this death, all this tragedy, is islamophobia and racism. the only reason you are able to look away is because there is a grotesque part of you, a dead appendage of your soul, that believes brown people are destined to be miserable forever. that we deserve these calamities thrust upon us. It's why so many of you readily shared racist fabrications about baby beheadings, mass rapes, a global day of jihad. you are so ready to accept the image of the angry arab, the evil muslim, the heinous savagery innate to our identity.” End ID.

ID 3: “to be arab or muslim in this country is to be burdened with the task of constantly proving your humanity and your innocence. there is always some awful thing to condemn - a terrorist attack, a corrupt regime on another continent, a preacher's vile sermon. it is psychically_draining to be suspicious of everyone, to wonder *all the time* if your next date is gonna say something islamophobic or if your employer will hold your faith against you or if the man staring at you on the bus is going to erupt with violence. to wonder if simply advocating for the liberation of Palestinians or Iraqis or Afghans will get you fired or ostracized or even just marred with the reputation of a histrionic.” End ID.

ID 4: “and then, when the drum beat of war starts again, and the headlines start to look like guns, and the correspondents start to sound like executioners, it becomes obvious that our anxieties were not unjustified. that some of you do want us dead. that you only like falafel, that you only enjoy vacationing in marrakesh, that if bella hadid said hello to you on the street you'd have a story to tell forever, at every thanksgiving. that we bring color and vibrance to your social circles but only when we're quiet about our heartbreak. that arabic is a beautiful, sophisticated language for a barbaric people.” End ID.

ID 5: “I know, as I've always known, since 9/11, and maybe even before, since I wore the hijab for ten years during the war on terror, since I saw my mother terrorized by our neighbors, that our lives are political fodder. you like us better than we're dead. we've learned nothing from our follies in Iraq, follies that came at the cost of more than half a million Iraqi lives.” End ID.

ID 6: “american life is underwritten by the suffering of others after all. every shein haul, every iPhone, every meal delivery comes at the cost of another person's hardship. I think we really underestimate the psychic toll of this, to enjoy excess and convenience and peace at the price of someone else's despair. it has rotted our souls, to know that every gallon of gas we use steals a moment away from someone else's future, and to continue doing it.

so it is easy for us to look at the Israelis say: they should be able to enjoy their nice tel viv beaches, their lovely kibbutzes built on stolen palestinian land. civilization is built on the graves of barbarians, of people lesser than you. manifest destiny and all that.” End ID.

ID 7: “I am so heartbroken for the palestinian people. I have faith that liberation is possible, but the price they've paid for it is too heavy. it's too too heavy. and now muslims and arabs all across the world will also pay the price. the very least you can do is look.” End ID.

[yjhariani]

Since the fast has just started and I’m obsessed with your Muslim ghosts au , I was just thinking about ghost and reader breaking their fast together

Iftar date with Muslim!Simon? Yes, please.

Frankly, when Simon said that for once the two of you should both go out for iftar, you thought he would just take you to a restaurant.

The journey started with a motorcycle ride. Instead of towards the places you both would usually go for dinner, he drove somewhere more serene. He took you somewhere with fewer people and more trees. You both eventually reached a higher altitude.

No matter how many times you asked where you were going, Simon gave you only a response, but not an answer. You’ll see. Or Just wait. Or We’re almost there.

Simon eventually stopped atop a hill. He turned his engine off and without getting off the bike, offered you a hand to help you get off the bike. Once you did, you removed your helmet and put it on the backseat of the bike.

Whilst Simon got himself of his steed, you looked around the rocky plateau area where you stood. It was spacious and it served quite the scenery. The sun was in the process of retiring into the nearby lake.

“Mind giving me a hand, love?” Simon asked.

When you turned to face him again, Simon was getting some stuff out of the saddlebags. Thermos, food containers, a blanket, and more.

From there, the two of you set up a little picnic area. Simon started a small campfire and soon enough after, the two of you sat next to each other, facing the sunset. Steaming tea had already been poured out of the thermos, food was readied, prayer mats were available nearby for later, a lantern was set aside in case of need.

Simon took his phone out and glanced at the time.

“Two minutes to go,” Simon said. “We should probably check where the qibla is as well.”

“We’ll pray here as well?” you asked, rather excitedly.

“We could probably find somewhere indoor if you want that,” Simon said.

“That’s probably going to push it so close to Isya,” you said. “This is nice.”

“Yeah?” Simon said.

“Yeah, I can’t believe you’re doing this,” you chuckled.

Simon only looked at you for a moment, a thin smile on his face. He, then, looked back down to his phone.

“It’s this way,” Simon stated, facing a direction.

With so, you rotated the folded prayer mats to face that direction.

“How many minutes left?” you asked.

Simon glanced back at his phone briefly.

“Still two minutes,” Simon answered.

“It was two minutes some time ago,” you said.

“Still two minutes,” Simon repeated, shrugging, looking at his phone as the time finally shifted. “One minute now.”

“One minute,” you nodded.

“Less than,” Simon said before gesturing at the sun that was almost completely swallowed by the lake. “I mean, we’re also witnessing Maghrib in real life.”

“Waiting for Maghrib while watching Maghrib,” you concluded.

“If we’re in Morocco we’d be in Maghrib as well,” Simon said.

“Like the same word?” you asked.

“Yeah. Maghrib means something that’s related to west, I think. Morocco is in the western part of the continent, sun sets in the west,” Simon explained.

“Ah, I see,” you hummed. “Morocco and Maghrib is kinda far, though.”

“I believe the word Morocco came from the name of a city there called Marrakesh,” Simon said.

“Oh, that makes sense,” you commented.

Just then, both of your phones went off, alerting that it was time for iftar. After turning them off, you and Simon looked at each other.

“Let’s just wait a bit more, just in case,” Simon said.

“That’s what I’m thinking,” you said.

However, Simon still handed you a cup of tea that you both prepared earlier and held the other in his hand. After a moment or two, you both started breaking your fast.

“You know,” you said after your first sip, “if we camp, we could do this for suhoor as well.”

“You actually wanna do that?” Simon questioned.

“Only if you think it’s a good idea,” you said.

“What if I told you I brought a tent?” Simon asked.

“No way,” you scoffed before gesturing at his bike. “I know that a tent won’t fit in those bags.”

“I said what if, love,” Simon said.

In response, you playfully shoved him.

“Fine,” Simon said before he picked up a datefruit. “It’s a date, then.”

“I broke my fast, I could curse you out right now, Simon,” you pointed out.

Simon huffed out an amused air.

🌹💋18+ 🌹 * What’s Gonna Happen The Day You & FS Meet Each Other? & What’s Gonna Happen after You & FS Meet Each Other?

🙌🏾Take five second to breathe in and out and don’t look at the pictures because they pretty. Trust your intuition and take what resonate and what doesn’t. Remember this is a general reading. Please if you wouldn’t mind to Reblog and comment how you feel what pile you selected. This is a general reading, take what resonate and what doesn’t and I hope this gives you clarity. Remember energy changes all the time.

🌹Pile 1: Off the first meeting between you and your FS will be fucking shitty. Ugh 😑 someone is going to be fedUp. Pissed off about something and I think that it’s your FS is going to be mad. They are going to be dealing with some bitter baby mama issues. I think this baby mama won’t let them go. When they do meet you, they’ll be happily single and just want to move on with their life and focus on their kids. I think that few of you might argue with your FS. I think that they’ll apologize for their tone. Their past still haunts them, so it’s going to take them a minute to open up. This is your high vibe soulmate, the first day you meet them. Again few of you will go through some baby mama or Baby daddy situation but some of you, I think that you or your FS will be mad 😠 about something maybe both of you will be having a bad day. Y’all are going to help each other uplift each other’s mood up. Someone might be stalking you and your FS. Again some of you are going to be dealing with some bitter baby mama situation, no offense but I saw the baby mama burst into y’all business meeting and curse your FS out. Yuck 🤢 back off girl or dude. She’s going to be stalking them, oh I see an obsessed baby mama. I heard them say “She doesn’t want to leave me alone.” I feel bad for your FS. That shit sucks badly. Okay either you or your FS will be playing hard to get, I sensing that is you. I think that at that moment, your FS will decide to let this situation go. I know right after meeting you first but that is how fate works. I think that they’ll try again with you, taking that risk texting you. Oh y’all might do a music together or do a music video that day you two first meet. For some of you. In my opinion, off the first meeting you have a crush on your FS, off the first meeting right there but you're probably going to pretend like you don’t like them like that. You’ll be annoyed with them, you think that they need to grow the Fuck up. Or vice versa. You might not take that chance with your FS. I heard you saying “Get your shit together.” I can see them heartbroken 💔 because you said that to them. You leaving their side brought tears to their eyes. Your FS will be invested into your career. If some of you do music, art, or just a clothing line. They’ll invest in your career. I heard them and you “ Why are you doing this?” “Because I believe in you.” Obviously your FS believes in your dreams. It’s like your dreams become theirs. If that makes sense. Oh yeah you two will be flirting heavily, y’all going to be friends to lovers instantly but I sense being friends first. But it’s going to be slow. Your FS will be charming with you, I sense that something is going to happen between you and your FS. They might buy you a gift. I think that some of you are rebellious people, I agree with you and so am I. I think that when you meet your FS, you might have braids in your hair or they might have braids in their hair. Yes! I was right, okay you are the rebellious one and they are more the traditional. So I sense that for some of you, your FS is a Muslim and most of you, that your FS is a Christian. They are strong believers. They’ll try to impress you with their corny jokes. It will make you laugh because I can see them trying to make you laugh or at least make you smile 😊. They are high on love! Maybe you or your FS is high on love. So they are very romantic 💘.

After Meeting’s: I think that you or your FS will be ignoring the signs. I think that’s you. I feel like you’ll be ignoring the signs. I believe that you’ll be ignoring your destiny with them. See! Take your time and they’ll be taking the time with you. You’ll lose your virginity to them or vice versa. After the meeting with them, I think you are going to kiss your FS or vice versa. Oh my god, I just saw your FS leading in the first to kiss you 😘. Both of you will take your time to be together. This is like a slow pace. You’ll trust them and they’ll trust you. You two will bring each other secure, safe and comfortable. Both of you are good listeners. I think that your FS will say something slick but in a good way like something sexual. They might grab your waist and whisper something in your ear. They might ask you out after you finish the job with them for some of you. Y’all might date them after you finished your work. Few of you I believe that they’ll be possessive of you, but you might need a little bit of space from them or they might need space from you. It will start to get codependent, so be careful with that. This is why it said you are ignoring the signs because it can become a toxic situation, they’ll be overprotective of you. Look it can happen in a good way but also in a bad way because I think that, they’ll call you a bitch. That’s why I say it can become a toxic habit. So take the time and space with each other. They are your divine masculine or you are their divine masculine. I believed that they got played by getting manipulated, lied to and disappointed. So I kinda see them being overly protective over you. Once you give them space, this is so stupid to say but they’ll realize what they done wrong 😑 so they’ll back off for a little bit and respect the boundaries or vice versa. I see that either you or them dealt with unrequited love and it’s a lot of fear between you and your FS. So I do feel like you two will start off as friends first and work your way up to build up that trust. Or I see that they already trust you already, again I was right! A lot of lack of faith here, so after the meeting with them, you’ll be having self-doubt about this connection between them. Or vice versa, they will try to sabotage their feelings for you, but once they realize you are their missing piece, they’ll realize that they made the mistake of letting you walk out on them. They’ll love texting you, especially at night when you are sleeping. So I do feel like after the business is over, you two will start to have feelings for each other. Both of you are a power couple for some of you, I feel like this is your best friend. Or I sense a karmic connection between you and them, so what this person is your oneness you have a divine union with your karmic and this is your husband regardless what kind of connection you have with them. I do sense this is your husband but few of you this is your past life person, who incarnated in this lifetime. I do feel like they are older than you but they don’t look old like their own age. If that makes sense. You are the best woman for them, I mean you are their forever in their hearts ❤️. For some of you they love how aggressive and dominant you are. I’m getting simpy vibes here. I’m also getting obsessive vibes as well. You’ll be secretly crushing on them heavily, you manifest them into your life. They’ll snatch your ass away from people, I think that you won’t care if they do. I think few of you will argue with them on your first date… ugh 😑 what the hell! Maybe they’ll be getting up a lot on your date. There will be a lot of lies that are spreading around, I heard at restaurants. Maybe you or them will sign a bad deal, a 360 deal or they did. That’s why they would wanna fix the issue, maybe some of you fought to be where you are and they’ll fix the issue, get you out of that deal and the date too. I think your FS got cheated on because their ex probably hooked up with their trainer or a friend and they were being very immature about it. That’s why they’ll sabotage it.

💋Pile 2: This is a bit similar to pile 1. So when you meet your FS or should I say when you both meet each other, it won’t be good meeting. They’ll be annoyed or frustrated about something, maybe they find out some bad news or some type of bullshit had happened earlier today. Either way you both will be pissed off 😤. Both of you would want someone talk to, but the thing is why you or your FS were fedUp is because you or them will run into a ex-lover from your past. So I think that you’ll say that “you win some and you lose some.” For some of you, you might know this person they might be a celebrity in your neighborhood or they just known person from everybody’s. Few of you, however I think that you know this person from being famous, that is your FS. But you might run away from them or vice versa because I believe that both of you are guarded and that is scared to open up. But in my opinion I understand, you have to keep an open mind. Once you pulled away they’ll grab you, I think that at end of this meeting I can see them pulling you to aside and give you a kiss 💋. Both of you will stay together, I can see that you two will stay in contact with them. They’ll be protective over you and vice versa. This is giving me simpy vibes. The ethnicity of your FS is a Caucasian for some of you I believe that they are. They have a mole on their body, but for few of you I think that your FS is a DJ, Rockstar, Singer or a construction worker. That’s dope though. But like I said for some of you I think that your FS is a Garbage worker, don’t be judgemental about it because they are a garbage worker. They are defensive as hell. This is your husband. Again!! Oh my goodness, I was right. Both of you will be triggering each other, I think that your ex or theirs ex will be triggered for them. I do see that both of you will collaborate, regardless what kind of job this person have. Please don’t be shallow because of their job or vice versa to them. So I think you two will get into a heated argument. I don’t see it as a physical fight but a bad argument, both of you will come back and forgive each other. Again there’s so much self-doubts, self-sabotage, holding grudges against the past people ugh. It’s a lot of healing ❤️‍🩹 both of you need to do. You’ll run away from them and so will they. But one of you will be mature about it and approach the situation with a clear head. This is the divine timing and the right moment to fix this situation with your FS. Well both of you will fix it and say your sorry 😢. End those cycles, patterns and old habits. Hahaha 🤣 I was right, this is similar to pile 1. Giving me Simpy Vibes. So they’ll be secretly crushing on you, they're probably doing readings on you or after they meet you they're probably going to a psychic to do reading on you. I think for some of you their Ex or yours will be stalking you or them. They have dirty ass friends around them. I think your ex or their ex got caught cheating on them, wearing other people's clothes or texting. So again! I was right they’ll make it right with you because they’ll sit you down and talk to you. Or you might be clingy to them and possessive but I get it for them. I think after you meet them you will start being comfortable with them. Maybe your FS have some type of disease 🦠 like they go to chemo or you go to hospital 🏥 a lot. Which I’m sorry about. That sucks.

After Meeting: Woah 🤯 I think that some of you will be mother them, because yes your FS is a hottie, I mean they are good looking. They are very handsome people. Okay for some of you they are toxic for you because we have shadow king makes me feel, they’re toxic for you because they are players. After the meeting with them, they’ll still be immature and childish. I feel like your FS have a lot of wisdom, they do but they just don’t care about anything really. I don’t know if it's like they fight their feelings for you, they are addicted to you as hell or they are addicted to that lifestyle they have. Trickster, they got played by their ex girlfriend or wife. Ugh 😑 doesn’t mean play games with other woman. I think that some of you will let this person go. I’m listening to that song by Selena Gomez- lose you to love me. Maybe you should listen to it. It seems like there will be a fucking friend that is obsessed with your FS, like they are stalking them. Ugh 😑 geez 🙄. I think their family won’t like you or vice versa. I feel like it’s the opposite for some of you, I think your family won’t like your FS, especially if they are in a toxic situation or headspace. Yeah my advice to you is to stay away from them. They even drain my energy. That’s why they are addicted to your energy because they are feeding off your energy. I know some of you have that nurturing energy so you’ll send them energy even if they are in a dark place. That for some of you with your FS. But few of you I believe that your FS have a calm energy, they are sweethearts. They are probably an Earth Sign, Virgo, Capricorn, or a Taurus. I’m getting a Virgo Sun and a Capricorn moon or other way around. They are loyal, they are honest and get your back. They are dominant as hell but they probably have an aggressive voice or a personality. I think that they are religious, probably a Christian or you are. Yes they are masculine and they love love ❤️ they are high on love or you are. I think that you and this FS will be kissing a lot, I mean giving you orgasmic kisses 😘. You or them have a temple that you pray to. I feel like both of you are very comfortable with your own skin. Probably have tattoos, scars or pimples on their face or skin and they don’t give a shit. If some of you decide to go down this road with your FS, you might be in a toxic relationship with them. Some of y’all FS ain’t that good. Either they are in denial or you are. Or some of you might be the toxic one for them. Because remember what I said the other FS is a more calm one but doesn’t mean they’ll take your shit. But this FS dude they’re not even healthy at all, probably living in that rockstar lifestyle. You or they might say we are better off as friends. I do feel like you’ll have fun with them after this meeting with them. It will be hell. Like I said this is your decision if you decide to go down this path with them. I feel like for pile 2 it’s two guys or girls whatever your sexuality preferences are. But I feel like you are going to have to make a choice between the two FS. This one seems too toxic for you. If y’all like the toxicity of your FS then hey that’s y’all life. But few of you I think you’ll choose the other guy because again the other one seems like they’ll be going through triggered feelings or some type of drama with their families. Or they might be beefing with them or vice versa. Either way both of you ain’t good for each other. I don’t see it going anywhere beside being their friends and so what! Some FS are just meant to be friends or you just meant to be their friend. I think you’ll be in denial with the other guy or girl because I think you have feelings for two people and you don’t know what to choose between them. You have to surrender to the one you feel close and comfortable with. I heard this other FS person does drugs etc. I think the other guy has been through a lot of toxic relationships before and been getting played plenty of times. They are just done with the games and I think that you trust them and they trust you.

🥹Pile 3: When you two meet each other, it seems like you two would be going through some ex issues again!. I think that you’ll be fixing your own problems. Doing a lot of shadow work, maturing and taking accountability for your mistakes. Good for you! I think that your ex or theirs bullied them. Like mentality, break them down. They will be their ex or yours that will be starting issues, sending naked or just bother them. I can see that you two working together like just talking and they ex just dm them. They probably bullied them because they can’t stand up like their dick can’t stand up and so they taking pills to help it. Both of you have strong ass chemistry, especially sexually. They’ll be craving for you, I think you’ll be the one that makes their dick stand up. So don’t pay that ex no mind, because it ain’t got nothing to do with you . I feel like few of you are in tune with your spirituality, trusting your institution and finding your peace on your journey and I feel the same way about your FS. I feel like the two of you are 5D Connected and you helped them with spirituality. Your FS is a daddy, they have twin boys or just a son. They are defensive, they have tough skin. They probably have freckles on their face. I think some of y’all higher self is helping them in the 3D world. So I think they doing spells 🪄 to make you come into their life. They did!. I got two reasons for this. Either your FS goes to physical therapy 😥or their kids goes to physical therapist. I sense that they probably have a hard time walking🚶‍♀️. They work at real estate companies or they are probably bloggers for some of you. Few of you think that your FS is an estate. I feel like few of you, your FS has a son. Some of you think your FS has twin boys that probably go through physical therapy. Maybe they are probably premature or something happened to them. Some of you, I think, are probably 27 or 30 years old. Of you, your FS is probably 27 or 34 years old. I think that your FS is a rebel but also believes in Jesus Christ too. I think they have their own temple of sorts worshiping. But I think deep down inside they are a rebel, they don’t like rules, they have their own type of freedom or vice versa that can be you. They are loyal. I heard they don’t like liars. Either you or them is a water sign. Probably a Pisces Sun, Moon, or Venus. Or Cancer Sun, Moon Or Venus. Or again Scorpio Moon, Sun or Rising. Or you or them have all these signs in these placements. Either way they are possessive over you. They are easily jealous. I would understand because I’m a Scorpio Venus and Mars so I'm a very jealous person. Lol 😆. Both of you are loyal as hell, I can see maybe you or them have a haircut when you two meet each other. Probably short hair, bald, dye hair or fade or they probably wearing durags when they meet you. Oh yeah don’t fuck with them, they know how to set the boundaries with people quickly. I feel like you two will be flirting with each other, making cheesy jokes or just being friendly to each other. Haha 😂 Awww 🥰. They are probably carrying purses like a book bag, I can see them wearing a small Gucci bag. Or you do. Maybe that’s their love language. I do think that they party hard, they know how to turn up. I think in the beginning they all shy but once they turn up they fucking turn up. Both of you I feel like y’all are shy but the second you get out of your comfort zone, they’ll start to be going wild.

After Meeting: After you two meet each other, I think you two will be texting each other. I heard in a couple months you two will be talking to each other and hanging out and probably date with them. So here’s the depth of this after the meeting. It was the right time to meet them but they aren’t ready, they are not prepared or anything. So makes me feel like again they are a dad. I think that’s going to trigger them, or you are slowly awakening yourself up. But I think that you won’t leave their side because you’ll be emotionally supportive to them. I feel like their love language is Gift given and also words of affirmation. They love sending you little notes, like I can see them passing notes to you. They’ll be thinking about you, I think they would want you to forgive them. Or you would want them to forgive you. Again I do feel like you two will be dating if not dating and courting each other. Y’all might go into business together. Collaborate on a project or some type of teamwork you two will be doing. You’ll be ending cycles and vice versa. But there’s a lot of self-doubts I think because they have fucking kids or a kid. That’s tough, especially if their kids have special needs. That shit makes me wanna cry for them. I’m sorry to them, I don’t think their mother is in the kids or kid life. Eww fuck her if ain’t man. Okay sighs 😔, here’s the problem. I think that you two will break up and someone gotta watch their fucking mouth 👄 I mean someone has a filthy mouth, like you or them can be fucking harsh with your words. Both of you are defensive as well, I think that’s why both of you will trigger each other. Don’t worry I feel like you or them or the both of you will apologize for what’s being said. So again both of you might be beefing with family members or just family drama. I think that’s them, especially since they are a single dad. Two are passionate about each other, so I think some of you will lose your virginity to them. Or few of you might have sex with them, especially hot 🥵 session you two will do each other. Oh my god! Sexy whisper whoop 🙌🏾 yess. You two will be doing some pillow talks, especially phone sex damn! Phone sex is important so basically communication is very important to the both of you. I think that you two will get into a argument like I feel them saying “Fuck You.” Again makes me feel like they are upset about what you said to them, again you have to watch your mouth 👄 at least try because even if they say something stupid don’t fight back with them let them feels stupid about what they about you. Once they realize that you make them happy or vice versa, they’ll come back to you and apologize to you. They’ll be depressed without you or vice versa. Y’all come back to each other and fully understand what’s been said and understand what shouldn’t be said.

😍Pile 4: I sense that you’ll be meeting two people that day. You might have to choose him or the other guy. There will be a revengeful ex ugh 😑, these exes man. For all these piles with the ex. I mean wtf 🤬. So anyways either you or them will be done with the lies, because it seems like they’ll be dating someone at the moment or you’ll be dating someone else at the moment. So again few of you I feel like you’ll be dating someone or some of you are going to meet two people that day. Either is your two FS. So it seems like you or them is going to be ignoring the red flags 🚩 ugh 😑 this why man either somebody check this fucking ex or tell y’all exes back the fuck off. Or in my opinion if some of you is dating someone at the moment or your FS don’t you dare try to jump on the next guy, remember you are the who’s ignoring the red flags 🚩 maybe it can your FS that you are meeting is the red flags, maybe they are dating someone at the moment. Or maybe that you! So if you decide to take this road with your FS, then in my opinion you should make the effort with them or vice versa. See!! You win some and you lose some. Your FS is getting used or they feel used, getting played over and over again. Or this other guy got betrayed and just wanted sex only. In my opinion that shit is fucking lame. You two will have an intense chemistry with each other. Like you have a strong bond with each other. Again if you are with someone at the moment, be sure if this is what you want. See! I think that they’ll cry 😢 to you. For some of you when you two meet, I think that you’ll have your lazy days when you meet them or vice versa. I feel like this other guy is a red flag or your FS is because again I think when you are in a relationship they’ll throw themselves at you, even when you are taken. So Mr Steal your Girl forreal this other guy is a sort of a player. So much corruption that’s going to happen that day. Either this ex will be spreading lies. I feel like for some of you, FS have many talents in ways. They are probably a tarot reader or a few of you, they probably draw or do plastic surgeries. They have a tooth gap, I think they go to physical therapy or vice versa. I think some of them follow their mother’s footsteps. Maybe they are older than you or mid-age. I think that they have a natural body , if that makes sense, and no offense to anyone who does surgery on their bodies. Whatever you do, that's your body. I feel like both of you will be devoted to each other, make the moves on you or vice versa. I think that some of you are into BDSM or they might be when you call them daddy or Dommy. I think that they are CEOs. They probably a Capricorn ♑️ or maybe this other guy is. I don’t know again this is y’all choice whatever you decide to do that’s on you. Seriously, I can only give you the energy right now. I think that they are nerds or geeks. They are very good looking. And they are probably thinking about being in a relationship with you. Or vice versa.

After Meeting: I think that they will say that they love you or vice versa. I feel like they will say it first and then after that you’ll be speechless about it. Both of you will compromise with each other. Listen to each other and slowly take your time without rushing each other. I think some of you will be setting the boundaries, stay in their lane or maybe this other guy will. Like I said it can be you that is the red flags 🚩 they should stay away from you. The main important thing is always choosing yourself, even if you decide to choose another guy then again that’s your choice. I feel like you and your FS will make boundaries or should I say set the boundaries. Both of you will be ignoring the signs. I don't know if it is from both of you or this other guy or something. Yes 🙌🏾 watch your mouth 👄, don’t be defensive or don’t get mad about it either. Both of you will take your time, not going to rush anything and slowly take your time about it. Make the effort, don’t give up on each other and give each other the final shot.

/724781513472868352 I resonate with this on a deep level. I get told at college all the time that I don't look LGBT+ (they refuse to say queer, respectability politics is a helleva drug), I don't act it, no queer person is into my major or my hobbies, and it's weird that I'm queer but not into astrology or dressing more aesthetically ("are you a cottagecore or a dark academia gay?" I'm neither I'm a me) or playing Pokemon because outgrowing Pokemon is for cishets. People talk about gays/LGBT+ not being able to drive or do math or sit normally and then act like I'm some kind of ridiculous weirdo for not laughing at what they assure me is a true statement that does not apply to them or to me. People encourage me to experiment with my style or hair and "come out of your shell". I am informed I need to listen to certain musicians because all LGBT+ people are into them. It's weird that I'm not. It's even weirder I don't like The Owl House or hate Steven Universe or keep up with Heartstopper like the good queers do.

Basically it all boils down to, "Why can't you be more normal? Why can't you be like us?"

Because I'm not. My dad is a Pashtun Muslim and my mother is a Bukharan Jew. I have lived in the Deep South half my life and Wyoming the other half. My media interests are unrelated to queer rep and wholly based on liking the plots of things. I grew up on oldies and TV shows like Starsky and Hutch that my parents loved, pirated and played on repeat. I don't believe in astrology, I'm not a witch and I'm not an atheist with a Christocentric worldview who assumes all religions are Christianity Lite. I don't listen to the correct musicians mostly because I discover music entirely by accident and have a mishmash of genres and bands in rotation. Pokemon fell off and I'm not into it. I would sooner die than dye my Pashtun red hair that people made fun of me for as a kid. I like wearing button downs, clean shirts, nice jeans and my Magen David. None of this is incompatible with being queer. No one is going to kick me out of a gay club for not having played Pokemon Violet or listening to Tracy Chapman or trusting in science over crystals for healing.

And I really hate that after years of being avoided and pitied in high school by jackass backwards rednecks for being weird, I got to my dream university, the university in the most liberal city in Montana, and get the same fucking treatment.

Commenters like the one anon mentioned remind me of all the people who act like I'm doing it wrong. What is 'it', in that sentence? Living my life. Being queer. And when it crops in fandom - and I've gotten it sometimes for writing queer characters who are like me, Southern and into uncool shit and not sharp dressers and religious - it just makes me want to start screaming.

I am queer. I am not incorrectly queer. I am who I am and therefore, because I am queer, that is a correct way to do queerness.

Some gripes about Gen Z are overblown but this weirdly narrow view of what queerness is allowed to look like or be is 100% as awful as other generations say it is and it's fucking exhausting to live through. I don't have to sit differently in order to be doing queerness right or be unable to drive. I exist and I am queer and that is all I need to do and be.

I wish fandom was different from real life. I wish it was more open to the reality that queer people have a multitude of backgrounds and lived experiences. We're facing enough shit IRL, can't we just have one place where we're NICE to each other?

--

As a 40+ queer, I'm laughing myself sick at the current crop of "required" queer interests.

In my day, it was oldschool cis gay male culture for the men (think being obsessed with Bette Davis) and But I'm a Cheerleader and Dykes to Watch Out For for the women or something.

Not that you have to like any of those things either. It's just hilarious how clueless people are about what's a temporary trend that will probably be different in 5 years.

WIBTA if I ruined my abusive ex's marriage? (Please read more because this sounds very misleading)

🍁 (for me to find it later)

I (29F) met and married J (31M) back when I was 21 and he was 23. We married after dating for a few months, but we were both from a muslim immigrant community (not saying exactly what community for privacy reasons) where this is very common in the culture and most people, both men and women marry young - so I didn't think much of it. Anyway J had issues with alcohol and drugs (he had told me he was sober now but he started again after we got married) he turned increasingly abusive, and even physically hurt me on multiple occasions and one time I was so scared for my life I locked him in a room and escaped to my sisters house. We divorced after 2 years, it was a very difficult and messy divorce since both of our families were involved. I'm not going into details, but it's been years and I have moved on since then and I am very happy and very in love with someone else now.

I heard of J through the years through mutual friends and I heard he's off drugs and travels a lot now. Anyway about two months back this same mutual friend told me he was going to be married again to M, a 21 year old girl. He met her on a plane apparently, she's muslim but not from our community and she has come to the UK to study and they were marrying after dating for 8 months or so. This rung my alarm bells as you can imagine. This mutual friend too is worried about her safety knowing what happened with me and we can't decide what to do. On one hand there is a possibility that J has really changed and if that is true I don't want to ruin their chance of happiness, but on the other hand this girl is so young. She doesn't have her family to protect her like I did and I don't want her to go through what I went through.

So, do I contact M and tell her the truth about our marriage? (I don't know what J has told her. He may not have mentioned it at all and knowing him he's very unlikely to have told her the whole truth, but then I haven't seen him for over 5 years). There is a possibility that she already knows and is going ahead with the marriage knowing everything, another possibility that she won't believe me and think of me only as a jealous ex. The mutual friend thinks it won't be of any use either way - she has met them and M appears to be obsessed with him, which I'm not surprised about since he can be very charming when he wants. I hope they be very happy because honestly I have let go of all hate and resentment and I wish him peace and happiness, but I just can't rest my conscience about this girl.

What are these acronyms?

A Christian friend once asked me what my temple had to say about Jesus.

“Nothing?” I was confused. “Why would we talk about Jesus?”

“Because he’s Jesus.” Her confusion was as apparent as mine. “Shouldn’t you talk about the son of God?”

“We … don’t believe that.” I didn’t want to offend her, but I wanted to be clear. “We talk about our own religion in our own religious spaces.”

Recent news about how antisemitism can be baked into aspects of Christianity and the Muslim religions has me thinking about that conversation. It makes sense, of course, that these religions that came after Judaism would reference their religious forebear, though I remain frustrated that people believe the context of another religion would give them understanding of a religion that is rejected by the religion proving the “context.”

And, as it turns out, years later, during the height of the seeming ubiquity of WWJD bracelets (for those outside the US or too young to remember, “WWJD” stands for “What Would Jesus Do?” and people wore WWJD bracelets to remind them to keep Jesus’ values in their minds and hearts, and this spawned increasingly specific questions as to how Jesus would approach various aspects of modern-day life), my rabbi did mention Jesus at temple.

“People ask ‘What Would Jesus Do?’ ‘What Would Jesus Drive?’ ‘What Would Jesus Eat?’ Well, we know the answer to that last one.” The rabbi smiled. “Kosher food!”

He then led us in the HaMotzi.

hi maya, how are you? there's something i would like to ask for your advice on, i know you've manifested your mom to not be muslim anymore, right? so basically, i come from a very strict muslim family, but i'm secretly bi or lesbian, i don't know which one i am yet but i know i like girls for sure (i'm a girl). as you probably know, being LGBTQ isn't allowed in islam. because of this i've always struggled with my mental health and i've always hated myself, and after finding out about the law, i've decided i want to revise me and my family ever being muslim. now the thing is, my best friend is also muslim, and because she is muslim too she believes that being gay is horrible and disgusting (from what i've seen her repost on tiktok), she reposts videos saying that gay people should not have rights, and that gay weddings are disgusting, and that it's stupid that pride month exists, and stuff like that. i have never talked to her about it because im too scared to ask her, because i know shes going to say that our religion believes being gay is wrong and gross...seeing the videos she reposts makes me feel really bad but she is my best friend ever and i dont want to stop being her friend, but i really just cant relate to her anymore because i dont believe in islam anymore and i like girls...is it okay for me to manifest her not being muslim either? or is that wrong? i really need advice...

Nope it’s not wrong. You have the power to shape your own reality. You can manifest change in people, situations, and relationships. But just my personal opinion, If you can bring about such change, why not choose to manifest a better friend or a healthier relationship?

This is just my perspective, but if someone disrespects you or treats you poorly, do we need to change them? I understand that friendships and bonds are built over time and letting go can be difficult. However, I believe in not trying to change those who harbor negativity towards me.The same goes for relationships. Instead of altering past lovers or individuals who may have wronged us, why not manifest someone who appreciates and respects us from the beginning?

Regardless , it's your reality. Your assumptions will shape it regardless. But this also ties back to self-concept. You deserve better. You deserve someone who adores and respects you from day one.But you can also choose better for yourself. Manifest relationships that add value and positivity to your life.

It’s okay to change your identity over time! I am queer, I know what it’s like to try and find a label that fits you. Current day Palestinians used to consider themselves as Syrian or Jordanian, or just as Palestinian Arabs. And there were Palestinian Jews, and Palestinian Christians, and Palestinian Druze, and so on! If you lived in that region known at that time as Palestine, you were Palestinian.  All people have the right to self-determination and a safe and comfortable life. It’s okay that the Palestinians call themselves Palestinians, even though it is the colonized name of Israel. Even Jews used that name. But now the Jewish Palestinians and diaspora have reclaimed their land and chosen to identify it and themselves as Israel. It was after this point, in around 1964-1968 that the current day Palestinians chose to become the Palestinian People as a nation. Unfortunately, this was done in some part to undermine the Jewish right to Israel and self-determination, fanning the flames on an impossible conflict. Some Jews even forfeit their right to self determination out of love and respect for the Palestinian people. It does not mean that Jews do not have the right to self-determination, and it does not mean that Jews are not indigenous to Israel. It is a testament to the depth of humanity that we can all possess.

Did you know that I am sick of having to speak like this? That you afford me no humanity, but I have to get onto my damn knees to placate you? Of course I believe in the humanity of every single person on this planet, of course I believe we all deserve, by merit of existing, to have our basic human rights met, and to go well beyond them as well. The fact that the majority of the left cannot hold two truths in their mind at once is sorely disappointing. Imagine what the world could be if you stopped yelling and started caring. I have been doing a lot of learning recently, about Israel, and Palestine, and the history, and the claims. I keep coming back to the same conclusion that I have come to for years. We both have a right to Israel, to live there and be free there. But how can we live there and be free there when organizations like Hamas and the general antisemitism of the Arab and Muslim world governments leaves Jews vulnerable to violence and dispossession time and time again. We have been facing war, genocide, and expulsion from before ‘Palestine’ was even a name. Show some compassion, show some grace.

Find me a solution that isn’t a globalized intifada or driving the Jews into the sea. Show me a Palestine where there is safety and equality and human rights. Show me true indigenous solidarity. Israel is not perfect. But it is a hell of a lot closer than many Arab countries. Maybe if you shared support instead of hatred, we could move forward to a better version of a mixed country like Israel already is, even thought the majority are Jews. This doesn’t seem to bother you when it is majority Muslim or Arab countries that Jews were ethnically cleansed from by colonizing Muslim/Arabs. For some reason, it is the one place in the whole world that having a majority anything demographic is a problem, even though Jews are a worldwide minority everywhere but in the indigenous Jewish land. Or, we could have a two-state solution, like all the ones that never happened because of the hatred, and violence, and wars of the Arab world. Stop clutching your western pearls and open your eyes. It’s okay to change your identity, or your mind, over time.

Why is religion so important to people though? It's not like it's some deeply ingrained part of your psych that can never change. If I decide I want to be catholic all of a sudden I can do that whenever I please. And if I get bored of being a catholic and decide I want to be Muslim instead, I can do that in a matter of seconds.

I'll start by saying that the importance of a thing isn't determined by the amount of change it can go through.

So let's see here...

Definition of religion taken from the dictionary: noun:

1.) the belief in and worship of a superhuman power or powers, especially a God or gods.

2.) a particular system of faith and worship.

3.) a pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance.

As you can see, one of the -actual- definitions of the word "religion" contains the word "important." Because whether or not your beliefs change or stay the same throughout your life, they ARE your beliefs, and they shape who you are, who you become, and what you do. I don't know about you, but I think it's pretty damn important to have some kind of idea on what exists beyond this earth. I think it's pretty important for someone who believes in a higher power or a creator to attempt to pursue knowledge about them. It's only logical to do so. After all, all (scientific) study is founded on the idea that it is good to discover the truths of the universe. We can change our minds on scientific findings in a matter of seconds as well. We are always discovering new things and proving old theories wrong and making up new ones.

Just to reiterate. It doesn't matter how many times your religion changes. Your beliefs are important because of their subject matter, not because you are holding them for a length of time.

‭‭Ezekiel 18:21‭-‬23‬

[21] “But the wrong, if he turns from all his sins which he has done, and he shall guard all My laws, and shall do right-ruling and righteousness, he shall certainly live, he shall not die. [22] “All the transgressions which he has done shall not be remembered against him – in his righteousness that he has done, he shall live. [23] “Have I any pleasure in the death of the wrong?” declares the Master יהוה. “Is it not that he should turn from his ways, and live?

Reblog this

How many of such moments came upon us, when we earnestly prayed, that this bloodshed is a nightmare. How many times we wished to fall into a deep slumber and when we wake up, we're told, it was just a bad dream. Everything is fine, no one was killed...all children are safe in the arms of their parents, their laughter is echoing the streets of Palestine.

I have found myself making this same Dua' over and over again.

Ya Allah let this be a nightmare. Wake me up to how I thought the world was. There were struggles. But not the slaughtering of children.

And then something hit my mind like a boulder.

*Isn't this infact, waking up to the reality of this world?*

This world was always like this. Injustice and oppression. Fasad and Fitan. Believers suffered with the worst in the hands of demigods of this world, because of their faith. Why did we miss this ever so apparent reality, That we were put here to be tried and tested? Why did we become so heedless that we forgot our purpose here?

And I felt I had just woken up. To the sirens with the colour of blood. But it wasn't just a colour...it was the blood of our Ummah.

What I was praying to be a nightmare, was a scalding truth. And what I thought was life, was actually...a delusion. This Dunya was nothing but a deception. A beautiful lie.

I tried to remember the dreams we were living before we were woken up to the truth.

We were chasing temporary pleasures of this deceptive world.

My home, my life, my pain, my struggles. I couldn't get a job, life is difficult. That person I loved left me, life is difficult. I couldn't manage to build a bunglow and had to settle for a one storey house, life is difficult. People have Cars, I am using a bike, life is difficult. I wanna travel the world, but I have responsibilities over me, life is difficult. I feel so lonely all the time, life is difficult. I cannot leave that haram relationship, that habit of watching pornography or listening to music, or talking bad about people....life is difficult. I cannot find time to learn Quran, I am busy in college or work...life is difficult. Etc...etc...

And now when I look at the people of Palestine... standing over the rubble of their once beautifully habitated homes, with dusts on their faces with the streaks of blood, helpless and forlorn because all of their loved ones died and now the only thing they care about is rescuing their dead bodies in one piece. When we get to know that they're sleeping on the streets, eating whatever or nothing, struggling to find clean water, holding the drips in the hospitals because there's no bed or stand, standing the whole night as they pump oxygen to that one family member who managed to survive serious injury. Unsure if the next bomb hits their building and unsure if they'd get to see the next day.

And then I see them proclaiming Shahadah, Saying Alhamdulillah. I see them kiss their dead child and say Alhamdulillah. I see them write loving notes on the shroud of their spouse. I see them distributing candies because their family achieved martyrdom. I see children write their wills on who should take their toys and school bag when they die. I see the children playing in soil dug up, and saying... We play here and we will be buried here.

And it crushes me on how we have been running behind all the things that could be destroyed in one airstrike. How foolish we were to think that Dunya was meant to be gathered. No. We could never catch this Dunya. We just tired ourselves in vain. We forgot our purpose. There was a life of truth beyond our "I" "Me" "Mine" ... We never lived for that. We were so obsessed with our own pain that we missed looking elsewhere. Think about it, do we even deserve to complain about our pain to Allah anymore after seeing what the fellow Muslims are suffering for the sake of our Deen? How will we give account of the blessings we're using right now whilst knowing the children of our Ummah died hungry? Think about it and let it break our hearts into million pieces. Let not the grief of Ummah leave us ever so we keep reminding ourselves of the betrayal of Dunya. We are blessed that this wake up call is not the Qiyamah and Sun rising from the west. Allah has given us a chance to repent and look at what's important and better for our eternal life. Alhamdulillah. Now, we shouldn't let the blood of our brothers n sisters be forgotten. Let this be a reminder to turn back and start living feesabeeliAllah. Leave off things displeasing to Him and start doing everything for His Pleasure. We have been given these extra days so we could benefit from it, so don't let the slumber of heedlessness hit us again. Disown every dream and goal you had for this world, if it doesn't involve Deen in it. Forsake every desire that would make your time with Allah less. Be firm upon your Tawheed. And live for Tawheed.
