One minute our government is calling the situation in Gaza “terrible” and vowing to recognise a sovereign Palestinian state - And the next they invite the president of the genocidal state of Israel for official meetings? Just wrote this piece 👇 5pillarsuk.com/2025/09/05/isr…
Nationalism is the biggest poison to have infiltrated the Muslim world. It was nationalism, the imported idea from Western empires, that we have to blame for the self-hating thinking that we have in Muslim countries. Nationalism is an entirely un Islamic ideal. #nationalism
I recently wrote this article for @5Pillarsuk It’s just one story out of millions revealing the plight of Uyghur’s. China doesn’t release its genocidal grip even after they die Thanks to @AbduwelA for being so vocal about this, a lot of what I wrote came from him. #Uyghurs

Since 2017, I’ve heard nothing from my mother. Today, I found out she died — no goodbye, no last words. My two daughters, both Turkish citizens, are still missing. China’s oppression stole my family. How long will the world stay silent? #UyghurGenocide #ChinaOppression…
Wow, this is a big development. I recently wrote about the Sarajevo Haggadah, a Sephardic Jewish manuscript from the 1350s and its entire history in Bosnia, from WW2 to the dissolution of Yugoslavia.

The beautiful campus of the International University of Sarajevo. I was privileged enough to attend a summer programme on Islam in the Balkans by @cnsba Had the privilege to listen to lectures by the likes of: Dr Ahmet Alibašić Dr Hikmet Karčić Harun Karčić
My first piece for @SFootsteps , alhamdulillah! How Derviš Korkut, a Bosnian Muslim scholar saved Jewish heritage and lived during WW2. Give it a full read here: sacredfootsteps.com/2025/08/07/the… #Bosnia #bošnjak #Sarajevo #Islamichistory #Sephardim
‘From Belgrade to Jerusalem: How Balkan Nationalism Laid the Blueprint for Zionism’ A fascinating connection between Theodor Herzl, the founder of Zionism, and Serbia. Read the full article on my substack: open.substack.com/pub/alenhistor… #Zionism #Belgrade #Herzl #Balkans
Important piece by @alenbasic3👇
Old footage of Bosnian Mudzahedin, may Allah accept the Muslims that put forth their souls & accept those who were victims of the genocide, aameen.
Since May 27, over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed while trying to access food. Think about that for a second. They’re already starving. Children are severely malnourished. Hunger-related deaths will only increase. They’re even killed whilst trying to get food. #gaza
