This is Abinta, Tarishi and Faraaz. They were slaughtered last night during the Dhaka attacks. Please remember their names

Remember that Tarishi went to UC Berkeley and started an amazing clothing line called EthiCAL Apparel, which aimed to eradicate poverty.

Remember that Abinta and Faraaz went to Emory and were extremely hardworking students and radiated nothing but positivity everywhere they went.

Faraaz is a hero that was murdered for trying to protect his friends. The terrorist group leaked photos of them, dead, lying in pools of blood - holding on to each other.

These three were senselessly murdered in their home country and I will not rest until they are memorialised. Please stop turning this into a political debate, please stop trying to bash our amazing country. Just remember that these are real people, they had real lives and friends and ambitions. Remember them.

In the past one day (July 2, 2016):

In Brooklyn, Muslim teens viciously assaulted outside their mosque. Their attacked shouted “you fucking terrorist" during the assault.

In Houston, Muslim doctor stabbed and shot twice while heading to the mosque.

In Florida, Muslim man is violently attacked by a white man who tells him, “You Muslims need to get back to your country.”

In the past few days:

In Minnesota, two Muslim men shot in the legs on their way to the mosque.

In Chicago, Muslim woman kicked, dragged on stairs and publicly stripped searched by the police for causing ‘suspicion’ due to her appearance.

In the last few days, there have been 3 major terrorist attacks that have gone hugely unreported by mainstream media: 

June 28th - Ataturk Airport Attack, Turkey - 45 dead, 238 injured

July 2nd - Dhaka Cafe Attack, Bangladesh - 22 dead, 40 injured

July 3rd - Baghdad Shopping Mall Attack, Iraq - 130 dead (the death toll so far), over 160 injured 

All in Muslim-majority countries. All during the Holy Month of Ramadan. And all committed by ISIS. 

And yet people still have the audacity to claim that “all Muslims are terrorists”, or paint those in the West as terrorism’s biggest victims.

i feel like muslim dudes have this fantasy of their wives taking off their hijabs for the first time and it’s gonna be so beautiful and picturesque with pantene commercial curls falling ever so gently and framing her face

no it’s gonna be sweaty and her hairs stuck to her head and she’s gonna look like yoda for a good minute and it’s going to be molded into the shape of the bun/ponytail it was in until she runs to the bathroom to fix it. don’t expect so much from us.

no offense but this year, politically, across the entire globe, has been an absolute joke

I stopped explaining myself when I realized people only understand from their level of perception.

“Everything I do now, I do to please Allah. I conquered the world and it didn’t bring me true happiness. The only true satisfaction comes from honouring and worshipping God. Time passes quick. This life is short, I see my daughter Maryum.

Yesterday, she was a baby, now she’s grown and is ready to get married. Everyday is a judgement for me. Every night when I go to bed, I ask myself: ‘If God was to judge me on what I did today, would I go to heaven or hell?’

Being a true Muslim is the most important thing in the world to me. It means more to me than being black or being American. I can’t save other people’s soul , only God can do that. But I can try to save mine.”

- Muhammad Ali | May you be showered with Allah’s mercy and blessings.
