Hip-Hop Star Macklemore on New Film "The Encampments" & Why He Opposes Israel's War on Gaza

 

The four-time Grammy-winning musician Macklemore, a vocal proponent of Palestinian rights and critic of U.S. foreign policy. He serves as executive producer for the new documentary The Encampments, which follows last year's student occupations of college campuses to protest U.S. backing of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza. He tells Democracy Now! why he got involved with the film and the roots of his own activism, including the making of his song "Hind's Hall," named after the Columbia student occupation of the campus building Hamilton Hall, which itself was named in honor of the 5-year-old Palestinian child Hind Rajab. Rajab made headlines last year when audio of her pleading for help from emergency services in Gaza was released shortly before she was discovered killed by Israeli forces. 

"We are in urgent, dire times that require us as human beings coming together and fighting against fascism, fighting against genocide, and the only way to do that is by opening up the heart and realizing that collective liberation is the only solution," Macklemore says.

Tribute to Uncle Khaled (ra) | The Other Side

 

When all else fades, only hope in Allah remains.
At the moment of death, no deed will matter more than trusting in His mercy. Even the most righteous entered the Barzakh with sins—yet it was their good opinion of Allah that erased them. In that unseen world, His mercy conceals shortcomings, and His forgiveness grants peace.

The gates of redemption never close to those who sincerely seek Him. So as you journey through this life, carry this truth with you: hope in Allah is not just a feeling—it is the greatest act of worship.

Every day is a chance to grow. Keep seeking knowledge.

What About the Innocent Children? | Barzakh :Dr. Omar Suleiman

 

What happens to the children whose lives were stolen before they’ve even begun?

We’ve wept over Reem and Wadea, and were haunted by Hind’s final cries, and to the countless children who were lost among thousands of names of those martyred, we wonder how this injustice could continue. While we grapple with their losses, and pray for their parents, Allah comforts us with the knowledge that they are nurtured, embraced, and waiting in a realm where injustice cannot reach them. Their names may fade from the headlines, but they will never fade from the mercy of the Most Merciful.

The Islamic Importance of Spiritual Detox During Ramadan

 

Ramadan is not just a month of fasting from food and drink; it is also a time for spiritual purification and renewal. This holy month offers Muslims an opportunity to detoxify their souls, cleanse their hearts, and strengthen their connection with Allah. Just as the body benefits from detoxification, the soul requires a spiritual cleanse to rid itself of negativity, distractions, and sins.

Purification of the Heart and Soul

Ramadan serves as a reset button for the believer, offering a chance to purify one’s heart from ill intentions, grudges, and worldly distractions. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of spiritual cleansing, stating, “There is a piece of flesh in the body; if it becomes good (reformed), the whole body becomes good, but if it gets spoiled, the whole body gets spoiled, and that is the heart.” (Bukhari, Muslim). Fasting, prayer, and increased remembrance of Allah help soften the heart and remove spiritual impurities.

Disconnecting from Worldly Distractions

In today's digital age, distractions are at an all-time high. Social media, entertainment, and excessive engagements in worldly matters can cloud the soul and weaken one's connection with Allah. Ramadan offers a golden opportunity to step away from these distractions, focus on Quranic reflection, and engage in acts of worship that elevate the soul. The Prophet (PBUH) encouraged Muslims to minimize idle talk and distractions, saying, “Whoever does not give up false speech and evil actions, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink.” (Bukhari). This highlights the necessity of not just fasting physically but also spiritually detoxing from harmful behaviors and influences.

Seeking Forgiveness and Repentance

Ramadan is known as the month of mercy and forgiveness. It is a time to seek Allah’s forgiveness and engage in sincere repentance. The Prophet (PBUH) said, “Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will be forgiven.” (Bukhari, Muslim). This spiritual cleanse allows believers to start anew with a purified soul and a renewed sense of devotion to Allah. Engaging in nightly prayers (Taraweeh), making abundant du’a (supplication), and asking for forgiveness can help remove the burden of past sins and cleanse the soul.

Strengthening Ties with the Quran

One of the greatest aspects of a spiritual detox during Ramadan is reconnecting with the Quran. Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed, making it the perfect time for Muslims to increase their recitation, understanding, and implementation of its teachings. The Quran serves as a guide to purify the soul and lead a righteous life. Allah says, “Indeed, this Quran guides to that which is most suitable and gives good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a great reward.” (Quran 17:9).

Enhancing Gratitude and Self-Discipline

Fasting instills gratitude, humility, and self-control. By refraining from food, drink, and other desires, Muslims develop a heightened sense of gratitude for Allah’s blessings and become more aware of the struggles of those less fortunate. This practice fosters a sense of compassion, generosity, and humility—key elements of a spiritually detoxed heart.

Ramadan is more than a time for abstaining from food and drink—it is a sacred opportunity for self-reflection, purification, and growth. By engaging in a spiritual detox, Muslims can cleanse their hearts, seek Allah’s forgiveness, detach from worldly distractions, and strengthen their relationship with the Quran. This month serves as a powerful reminder that true success and peace come from a purified soul devoted to the worship of Allah. As we strive for a deeper spiritual connection, may Allah accept our fasting, prayers, and efforts in drawing closer to Him. Ameen.

Fighting Oppression and Seeking Justice in Islam

 

Oppression (zulm) is one of the gravest sins in Islam, and justice (ʻladl) is a fundamental principle that every believer is called upon to uphold. Throughout Islamic teachings, Allah commands the faithful to stand firmly against oppression and to work tirelessly for justice, both on a personal level and in society.

The Islamic Stance Against Oppression

The Qur'an strongly condemns oppression in all its forms. Allah states:

"Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice. Excellent is that which Allah instructs you. Indeed, Allah is ever Hearing and Seeing." (Qur'an 4:58)

This verse highlights the necessity of fairness and integrity in all dealings. Oppression, whether by individuals, rulers, or societal systems, is considered a violation of divine justice. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also warned against injustice, stating:

"Beware of oppression, for oppression will be darkness on the Day of Judgment." (Sahih Muslim)

The Duty to Fight for Justice

Islamic teachings do not advocate passivity in the face of injustice. Instead, believers are encouraged to actively resist oppression and support the oppressed. The Qur'an commands:

"O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness." (Qur'an 5:8)

Justice must be upheld even if it goes against one's own interests or those of loved ones. Islam teaches that neutrality in the face of oppression is akin to supporting the oppressor.

Prophet Muhammad’s Example

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was a model for justice. He challenged the corrupt elite of Makkah, defended the rights of the weak, and established a society in Madinah based on equality and justice. He famously stated:

"Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is oppressed." When asked how one could help an oppressor, he replied, "By preventing him from oppressing others." (Sahih Bukhari)

This hadith shows that fighting oppression is not just about supporting victims but also about stopping the cycle of injustice at its root.

Practical Ways to Stand Against Oppression

Speak Out: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The best jihad is a word of truth in front of a tyrannical ruler." (Sunan Abi Dawood) Silence in the face of injustice allows oppression to continue.

Support the Oppressed: Whether through financial aid, advocacy, or community support, Islam encourages believers to uplift those who suffer injustice.

Strive for Legal and Social Justice: Muslims are urged to work towards fair laws, ethical governance, and social reforms that promote equality and dignity for all.

Practice Justice in Daily Life: Justice starts at an individual level—fair dealings with family, honesty in business, and kindness to all.

Make Du’a (Supplication): The Prophet (peace be upon him) taught that the supplication of the oppressed is never rejected by Allah. Seeking divine help is a powerful means of fighting injustice.

Conclusion

Islam mandates an unwavering commitment to justice and a firm stance against oppression. It calls upon believers to be active agents of change, resisting tyranny with wisdom, patience, and faith. By following the teachings of the Qur'an and the example of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), Muslims can play a crucial role in building a just and compassionate society.

Said Nursi: A Legacy of Faith, Knowledge, and Revival

 

Said Nursi (1877–1960) was a prominent Islamic scholar, thinker, and reformer who left an enduring mark on the intellectual and spiritual landscape of the Muslim world. His works, particularly the Risale-i Nur (Epistles of Light), continue to inspire millions seeking a deeper understanding of faith in the modern age.

Early Life and Education

Born in Nurs, a small village in eastern Turkey, Said Nursi exhibited extraordinary intellectual abilities from a young age. He mastered various Islamic sciences, including Quranic exegesis, hadith, and jurisprudence, by his teenage years. His brilliance earned him the title “Bediüzzaman” (The Wonder of the Age).

A Scholar in a Time of Change

Nursi lived through a period of intense political and social transformation in the late Ottoman Empire and the early Turkish Republic. Witnessing the decline of Islamic institutions and the rise of secularism, he dedicated his life to reviving faith and religious education. Rather than engaging in direct political opposition, he focused on strengthening individuals' spiritual and intellectual foundations through his writings.

The Risale-i Nur: A Beacon of Light

One of Nursi’s greatest contributions to Islamic thought is the Risale-i Nur, a collection of Quranic commentaries written in a style accessible to ordinary people. In these writings, he addresses themes such as the existence of God, the purpose of life, and the harmony between religion and science. His approach sought to reconcile faith with rationality, making Islamic teachings relevant in the modern era.

Persecution and Perseverance

Throughout his life, Nursi faced imprisonment and exile due to his teachings and influence. The secular authorities of Turkey saw his emphasis on religious revival as a challenge to their vision of modernization. Despite being subjected to harsh conditions, he remained steadfast in his mission, continuing to write and teach even under duress. His patience and resilience became a testament to his unwavering commitment to his faith.

Legacy and Influence

Today, the Risale-i Nur movement has followers worldwide. His works have been translated into multiple languages, reaching people across different cultures and backgrounds. Many see him as a reformer who provided a bridge between traditional Islamic values and contemporary intellectual challenges.

Said Nursi’s life exemplifies the power of faith, knowledge, and perseverance. His legacy continues to inspire those who seek to understand Islam in a way that harmonizes with reason and modernity. In a world grappling with spiritual crises and ideological conflicts, his teachings remain a source of guidance and hope.

Islamic Guidance on Healing from Trauma and Depression

 

 Life is filled with tests, and trauma and depression are among the most difficult challenges one can face. Islam provides spiritual, emotional, and practical guidance to help individuals navigate these struggles with faith and resilience.

1. Trust in Allah’s Mercy and Wisdom
Allah reminds us in the Quran:

“Do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.” (Quran 39:53)

No matter what we have endured, we must believe that Allah’s mercy is greater than our pain. Everything happens according to His divine wisdom, even if we do not understand it at the moment.

2. Seeking Help is Encouraged
Islam does not advocate suffering in silence. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) encouraged seeking both spiritual and medical assistance for hardships. He said:

“O servants of Allah, seek treatment, for indeed Allah has not made a disease without appointing a remedy for it.” (Sunan Ibn Majah 3436)

This means that therapy, counseling, and medical help are valid and necessary steps toward healing, just as we seek treatment for physical ailments.

3. The Power of Prayer (Dua) and Remembrance (Dhikr)
Turning to Allah through dua and dhikr can bring immense comfort. Some beneficial supplications include:

“Hasbiya Allahu wa ni‘mal wakeel” (Allah is sufficient for me, and He is the best disposer of affairs.) (Quran 3:173)
“Ya Hayyu, Ya Qayyum, bi rahmatika astaghith” (O Ever-Living, O Sustainer, in Your mercy I seek relief.)
Reciting Surah Al-Duha (93:1-11) is also known to uplift the heart during times of sorrow.

4. Patience (Sabr) and Hope
Allah promises that patience brings reward:

“Indeed, with hardship comes ease.” (Quran 94:6)

Even in our darkest moments, relief will come. Keeping hope alive and reminding ourselves of the transient nature of worldly suffering can provide emotional strength.

5. Finding Support and Giving Back
Surround yourself with supportive, positive people who encourage healing.
Engage in acts of charity and kindness, as helping others can lighten one’s burden and bring inner peace.
6. Strength in the Sunnah
The Prophet (ﷺ) faced immense trials, including the loss of loved ones and personal suffering. Yet, he always turned to prayer, trust in Allah, and service to others. Emulating his approach can offer solace and perspective.

Final Thought:
Struggles with trauma and depression do not make you weak or less faithful. Allah is always near, and every step you take toward healing is valuable in His eyes. Keep praying, keep seeking help, and trust that Allah will bring you through this hardship stronger than before.

If you need specific duas or further guidance, feel free to ask. May Allah grant you peace and healing. Ameen. 🤲🏽

The Rewards of Fostering Children in Islam

 

Fostering children is one of the most compassionate and rewarding acts a Muslim can perform. In Islam, caring for orphans and vulnerable children holds immense virtue, bringing both worldly and spiritual rewards.

 A Path to Jannah

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “I and the one who cares for an orphan will be together in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together (Bukhari). This hadith highlights the elevated status of foster parents in the Hereafter. By providing love, care, and support to a child in need, a Muslim secures a lofty place in Jannah.
 Earning Continuous Rewards (Sadaqah Jariyah)

Fostering a child is an ongoing act of charity (Sadaqah Jariyah). Every meal provided, every lesson taught, and every act of kindness shown to the child contributes to a continuous stream of rewards. Even after one’s passing, the good deeds instilled in the child will continue to benefit the foster parent.

Strengthening the Ummah

Islam encourages strong community bonds. When a child is cared for within a loving and Islamic environment, they grow up with the right values and morals, contributing positively to society. Fostering is an act that strengthens the Ummah by ensuring no child is left abandoned or neglected.

 A Means of Attaining Allah’s Mercy

The Prophet (peace be upon him) was known for his immense kindness to orphans, and he instructed Muslims to do the same. In a hadith, he mentioned that softening one’s heart comes from caring for an orphan (Ahmad). Fostering children invites Allah’s mercy and softens the hearts of those involved.

 A Great Act of Compassion and Love

The rewards of fostering extend beyond the spiritual realm. Many foster parents find a deep sense of fulfillment in providing a home to a child in need. The love and attachment formed through fostering bring joy and purpose to both the child and the foster family.

Following the Example of the Prophet (PBUH)

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself was an orphan, raised by his grandfather and later his uncle. His compassion towards orphans and vulnerable children serves as an example for Muslims to follow. Fostering a child is a way to emulate his noble character and fulfill a great Sunnah.


Fostering children in Islam is not just an act of kindness; it is a means of attaining immense rewards in this life and the Hereafter. It is an opportunity to transform a child’s life, strengthen the Muslim community, and draw closer to Allah’s mercy. May Allah bless and reward those who open their hearts and homes to children in need. Ameen.
