Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un

The last post of the security guard who was martyred today along with two teachers while protecting his mosque and children’s school from active shooters, asking for husn al-khatimah (a good ending)

Ameen ya rabb 🤲

i knew it was inevitable but no less disgusted to see it

they did the same “he was just a sweet little boi” press coverage with the Christchurch shooter too

[sevdahalma]

and now come the far right conspiracy theories and a level of hatred that would be inconceivable if they weren’t constantly reminding us of how much they hate us

“we will be told they are such amazing people”

because they were.

Brother Mansoor was martyred shielding children

Brother Amin was martyred putting himself between children and the barrel of a gun after using his last moments to alert the teachers in the school, which gave the teachers enough time to respond

Brother Nadir was martyred as he ran towards the attackers

may Allah swt grant them the highest stations, they’re heroes.

i love them and their friendship so much

Fandoms really need to learn the difference between arranged and forced marriage since arranged marriage tends to be a fairly popular trope/au. Because they are NOT the same thing. Like you do realize a lot of the world still practices arranged marriages? And that even if it’s not common in your culture it’s not something to be portrayed as inherently backwards, evil, or barbaric? So many fics, AUs, and headcanons etc perpetuate a lot of really ugly stereotypes without even realizing it

The amount of people romanticizing forced marriage and abuse is also horrifying

[sevdahalma]

And I’m saying this as someone who got married this way - please stop turning our perfectly normal lives/marriages into tropes that spread disinformation and romanticize abuse

I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I'm so glad I was able to have this included alongside so many other extremely talented creators in the zine. <3

Mandalorian Child, of the farmers of the Mountains of the East, in the region of Vheterade, on Mandalore.

These farmers wear huge and warm cloak called Pel'nadakih (soft warmth) made with the wool of their sheep, which keeps them covered and protected from the harsh winds and cold of the Mountains.

While this is a tradition that happens in the many rural areas of Mandalore, the farmers here too weave flower crowns of Yust’oya’naure, Eed’mavane and C’adiike, which are all considered flowers that protect children from bad luck and tiny evil spirits.

This gotta be the funniest Enterprise-Klingon exchange ever:

[feathery-dreamer]

honestly putting a Klingon, of all people, should be considered a violation of human people rights

[storybook-tiles]

you’re captured with the fate of an entire rebellion movement in your hands. your biological dad tortures you for information. your entire planet and family blow up. a close family friend is killed. and you’re nineteen and it’s been like. three days

With Sarajevo in the news, highlighting the war crimes committed during the siege, I want to stress the importance of learning about what happened in Bosnia, because genocide denial is unfortunately still alive and well.

Knowing the history helps protect the truth.

Learn about the concentration camps, where thousands of civilians were subjected to starvation, beatings, assaults, torture, rape, and untold abuses.

Learn about the targeted campaign of sexual violence against girls and women, who were systematically abducted, repeatedly assaulted, and forcibly impregnated as part of the ethnic cleansing campaign.

Learn about the rape hotels, where women and children were imprisoned and repeatedly raped and murdered.

Learn about how the soldiers dismembered the bodies and scattered pieces in different mass graves to make it harder for families to find and identify remains of their loved ones.

Learn about Prijedor, where the campaign of extermination and ethnic cleansing turned the area into a site of mass killings, mass rape, and untold horrors. Learn about how non-Serbs were forced to wear white armbands to identify themselves.

Learn about Srebrenica, where thousands of civilian Muslim children, men, and elderly were separated from their families, rounded up, and executed en mass.

Learn about the siege of Sarajevo, where, for years, the civilian population of the capital was cut off from food, medicine, water, and electricity - all while under constant and indiscriminate sniper fire.

[sevdahalma]

An added thought:

We sometimes approach the topic of genocide as though it is an anomaly and not a pattern. We study these events like they’re suspended in time, but they aren’t. They are crafty evasions of guilt and documented manuals of devastation that are recycled by oppressors again and again, then in Bosnia and now in Sudan, Palestine, and elsewhere.

why you should watch turkish star wars, brought to you by imdb reviews:

and my personal favorite:

[beskarbint]

because who needs regular star wars when you can have the turkish knock off with unedited, stolen footage from episode iv because they ran out of money to do special effects?

and who needs luke, han, and chewbacca when we have ali (han, on the right), murat (luke, in the middle), and aslan adam (“lion man”)

and who needs an original soundtrack when you can just steal the entire soundtrack from indiana jones??
