Attacks against human rights defenders and obliteration of civic space in Gaza unacceptable, says UN expert
16 September 2024
Israeli Defence Forces continue to intentionally starve and kill civilians, while human rights defenders face enormous challenges conducting their peaceful work, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, Mary Lawlor said today.
In recent months the oldest human rights organisation in Gaza, the Palestinian Human Rights Centre (PCHR), has seen staff members killed and its offices damaged beyond repair in air strikes and ground attacks by the Israeli Defence Forces.
“There is literally no place left for human rights defenders and civil society actors to continue documenting the litany of human rights violations to which Israel is subjecting the people of the Gaza Strip,” the Special Rapporteur said.
Two women lawyers from the PCHR were killed in February 2024. Nour Abu al-Nour died along with her two-year-old daughter, her parents, and four siblings in an air raid on her house in Rafah on 20 February 2024. Two days later, Dana Yaghi and 37 family members were wiped out in an Israeli air raid on a house to which they had relocated for safety in Deir el-Balah, 14 km south of Gaza City.
“It is a terrible tragedy that justice for these two women human rights defenders, their family members and their children, seems so far away. Human rights defenders keep hope alive for justice through their work but are becoming victims themselves. This is why Israeli authorities seem so intent on targeting and silencing them,” she said.
The PCHR headquarters in Gaza City and branch offices in Jabalya, Khan Younis, and Rafah have all been severely damaged in air raids and ground attacks, forcing staff to relocate and rent office space and logistical support at skyrocketing prices, while some international funding has been suspended. They have also been subjected to a vitriolic online smear campaign by the Israeli group, NGO Monitor, which has falsely accused PCHR of being linked to terrorists.
“Human rights defenders have told me that they will continue their work despite this online defamation, which is targeted at drying up their international support and intimidating them,” Lawlor said.
“This organisation continues to bear witness, document and record gross human rights violations and war crimes. Many Palestinians have spoken to them on condition of anonymity. Such is their fear of Israeli repercussions if they are to be publicly identified.”
Recent media reports have highlighted Israeli surveillance of PCHR, and other Palestinian human rights organisations, including Al-Haq and Addameer in the Occupied West Bank, for much of the past decade, in relation to information they were submitting on Israeli human rights violations to the International Criminal Court.
“I repeat my call for human rights defenders to be recognised as essential in times of armed conflict, and to be protected. As independent observers, lawyers and researchers, they document and preserve evidence of violations of international humanitarian and human rights law and ensure the possibility of accountability and justice,” Lawlor said.
The physical integrity of Human Rights Defenders should be protected against attacks and harassment, unlawful killings should be promptly and independently investigated in accordance with international law, and measures adopted to protect them against future serious violations, she said.
The expert has previously raised these concerns with authorities in Israel and in the occupied Palestinian territory.

- Colin?
It was late in the evening. Marg decided to check how Colin was feeling after lunch today.
- Yes? - Colin looked up from his desk and saw Marg who was standing in the doorway to his office.
- I just wanted to ask how you were feeling.
- Oh... yes, yes... I really feel great... - he covered his face with his hands and sighed loudly - sorry, but I was lost in thought... I think I'm already tired - he looked at her again - do you have something for me? - he noticed that she was holding a mug in her hand.
- Yeah… I… yes, coffee - she placed the steaming drink on his desk.
He took a sip of coffee and immediately felt the effects of the caffeine. Although he still hasn't recovered from a slight hangover.
- Thanks Nour... but aren't you here for something else?
Marg looked at him sad and confused.
- Colin… did you just call me Nour?
- Wait...
Colin now realized what he had said. He had called her Nour instead of her real name. This was unlike him. Too many thoughts in his head.
- Oh... I... yes, I... - he was stuttering, not really knowing what to say - fuck…
- Colin? Why did you call me like that? I know you like my friend Nour, and you fucked her, but… you’re thinking about her now? - Marg came closer to his desk.
Colin was beginning to panic, realizing that he had just screwed up his situation with his minor stumble. He was now in full panic mode and felt overwhelmed by the current situation.
- Oh... no... no... no, sorry, I... I don't know why I said that... it's just... I'm probably really tired and I'm talking shit - he said, trying to get out of the hole he had just dug.
- I just don’t know what to say… - Marg looked at her hands - I thought you only think about me, because I’m yours… I’m pregnant with your baby. So I thought I’m the only one woman who is in your head and heart - she looked at him again waiting for an answer.
- Oh no... Nour is not in my head and heart... I just thought about her for a while... it was probably because of our earlier conversation. That's why I accidentally said her name... I did not want to mention her name... - he shook his head with dissatisfaction - you are the only person in my heart and head.... Nour is just a nice person and we together... you know... but it's all just physical stuff. I don't have any emotional attachment or any kind of love for her.
- I really want to believe you.
- You can believe me - he said with a little more conviction.
This situation was quite stressful and he felt bad about having to explain himself to her. He wanted her to simply believe him and see that he was serious. But he understood that this was not easy for her, due to their quarrels in the relationship recently. He tried to explain it somehow, he didn't want any problems caused by miscommunication.
- Because… baby, I’m… I know we have bad time now. We need to talk about this more and… I just want you to focus more on me and our baby - she looked at him with sad eyes - If not… I’m sorry but… I’ll better to be a single mother.
- Of course I will. I've already said that I know I've made some mistakes lately and that I will improve. I'm sorry I made you feel that way. You shouldn't feel this way...
He felt sadness at the thought that she could become a single mother if their problems continued. He didn't want her to be alone, he wanted to at least have some kind of relationship with her throughout the pregnancy, and he wanted to be with her for their baby.
- Colin, one question. This is really important to me - she was quiet for few seconds - do you still love me? Okay two questions. Do you still want this child?
- I love you... a lot, yeah... and I want this child more than anything in the world, I promise you...
He seemed adamant about this. He wanted her to know that he was the most honest he had ever been. He wanted the child to be able to have two parents by his side. He wanted to be able to raise this child with her and be able to give it everything that he himself had never really gotten in life.
- Okay then… at this moment I trust you and your words. It’s just a second month of my pregnancy… if everything works out between us until baby came to this world. I’ll be with you. But remember this is the last chance - she sighed - if not, Colin… I’m too tired to be with you. With person who doesn’t know what he wants. I want peace in my life.
He nodded his head as a sign that he understood her words.
- I still wanted to say that I'm going home soon. So if you want... you can come with me. I will drive you home.
- Oh... sure... I'd be happy to take your suggestion. I don't want to take a cab back again. Thank you - he smiled at her.
She puts her hand on the door handle.
-See you later - she smiled - I love you, Colin.
She lived him alone and left his office. She closed the doors behind her.
- I love you too, Marg.
He felt relieved because they were able to find some common understanding. Even if she was still angry with him, he felt more like they were on the same side. And he hoped that they could continue in this way until the baby was born. He wanted her to be happy and for her pregnancy to be stress-free.
————
Marg sat in the car and waited for Colin. She sighed deeply and rolled her eyes when she finally saw him leave the police station. He walked to the car and sat in the passenger seat.
- What took you so long? I've been sitting like some fool in the car for half an hour waiting for you.
- I had to clean up the documents, and as I was leaving the office I inadvertently tripped over a flower pot and spilled soil and....
Marg waved her hand in front of his eyes to stop talking.
- Keep quiet and stop making excuses. It was a rhetorical question.
She started the car and headed out of the parking lot toward Colin's house.
They drove in silence. Colin closed his eyes and leaned his head against the headrest of the seat. Marg glanced at him from time to time. He looked really exhausted. She wasn't feeling well either.
She parked outside his house and stroked his cheek to wake him up.
- Colin? We are already there. Wake up.
He mumbled something, but finally opened his eyes.
- Oh... I had a dream - he rubbed his eyes with his hands.
- What kind of dream?
- Hmm... we were in a very interesting situation together - he looked at her uncertainly.
- In what situation? - she asked more and more curious.
- It was... it was... really warm, even hot.
- Oh…
- Marg, may I kiss you? For a good night's sleep? Please.
- Of course - she leaned toward him waiting for a kiss.
He kissed her lightly and gently. He was in no hurry to interrupt this pleasant rapprochement. He touched her face and stroked her cheek. Marg murmured quietly. He moved his hand further and entangled his fingers in her hair. He pulled her closer to him. His other arm went around her waist.
- Colin? - she muttered into his mouth.
- Yes?
- You make me hungry.
- Hungry?
- Yes…
- What are you in the mood for?
- You, Colin.
- Marg… we…
- Colin! I want to fuck you in the back seat of this car! Now!
Colin's heart skipped a beat as he contemplated Marg's bold proposal, and the sudden surge of excitement was tempered by a lingering sense of unease. He looked around nervously, wondering if someone might overhear their conversation.
- Are you sure this is a good idea? - he asked hesitantly, trying to hide his growing desire behind a veil of concern for her well-being and current condition - What if someone sees us? We might get caught...
His words hung in the air between them, underscored by an undeniable undertone of longing that neither of them could deny.
- Yes! I’m sure! - she clenched her fist on his shirt in an attempt to pull him toward her.
Colin hesitated for a moment, torn between his duty to protect Marg and his burning desire to satisfy her every whim.
He finally relented with a sigh of resignation, knowing that resistance would be futile in the face of her unwavering determination.
- All right - he admitted reluctantly - but we need to find some secluded place. I don't want anyone to catch us.
His eyes roamed the area in search of the perfect spot, one that offered both privacy and comfort. Luckily, he spotted a dimly lit alley just behind a row of parked cars, whose shady corners provided ample cover from prying eyes.
- Drive there, please - he pointed with his hand in the direction to go.
Marg sighed loudly and started the car. She drove in the designated direction. She stopped the car and looked at him.
- Yes, perfect, now let’s fuck in the car!
Colin quickly locked the door. His heart pounded with impatience as he saw Marg move to the back seat.
Once they were safely in the back of the vehicle, he wasted no time in reaching for her, drawing her to him with a sudden passion that contradicted his earlier hesitation. In one swift motion, he unbuttoned her blouse, exposing her lacy bra to his hungry gaze.
Letting out a low murmur of approval, he cupped her breasts gently in his hands, then leaned down to capture a ruddy nipple between his lips.
Her soft moans filled the interior of the car as he sucked hungrily on her flesh, his fingers deftly unbuttoning her jeans so he could slide them down over her hips.
Marg wriggled beneath him, desperately craving more contact, even as she struggled to maintain control over her rapidly growing desires.
- Yes, Colin! This is what I needed! And I was waiting for so long! - she moaned loudly.
Feeling emboldened by Marg's enthusiastic reaction, he continued exploring her body with renewed vigor.
Moving his hand lower, he slid it under the waistband of her panties and found her slippery entrance, already wet and ready for him.
With a groan of satisfaction, he plunged two fingers deep inside her, eliciting a sharp cry of pleasure from the woman beside him.
He smiled willy-nilly as he began pumping them in and out, matching the rhythm of their hot kisses while his thumb wound circles around her swollen clit.
Despite his best intentions to take things slowly, he felt himself losing control, consumed by the raw passion that burned like wildfire between them. As Marg arched her back, seeking release from the exquisite torment building in her loins, Colin knew there was no turning back now. Without warning, he withdrew his fingers from her depths and lay on top of her trembling body, his swollen member at the entrance to paradise.
- Are you sure about this? - he muttered in a hoarse voice, barely able to contain his raging desire.
But even as the words left his mouth, he knew the answer no longer mattered.
She just moaned loudly.
Unable to resist any longer, Colin moved forward with a throaty moan, sinking up to his balls in Marg's welcoming warmth.
Her nails dug into his shoulders as she screamed in ecstasy, her body arching upward to meet each powerful thrust of his hips.
He could feel her inner walls pulsing around him, drawing him deeper and deeper into her embrace as she rode the crest of a wave of orgasm that threatened to engulf them both completely.
Lost in the heat of passion, Colin gave himself over to the moment, letting instinct and desire guide his actions as he once again took ownership of her willing body.
Their uneven breaths mingled in the confined space of the car, punctuated by the sound of skin hitting skin and occasional curses or whispered pleas for mercy. And yet, despite the intensity of their connection, there remained an underlying tension, a nagging doubt that cast a shadow over their not-so-perfect relationship.
- "What will happen next?" - Colin wondered fleetingly, even as he relished the sheer physicality of their shared experience - "Will we ever be able to return to normal?"
- Oh my god! Colin, don't slow down! Push me harder!
At Marg's insistence, Colin redoubled his efforts, thrusting into her with a ferocity that made them both gasp for air.
His hands gripped her hips tightly, clinging her to him while he thrust relentlessly into her, his own climax building up inside him like a gathering storm.
Despite the growing pressure in his groin, he forced himself to hold back, determined to prolong their mutual pleasure as long as possible.
But even as he tried to maintain control over his body's primal urges, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.
- "Why does it feel so wrong?" - his thoughts kept him guessing.
- Honey, I'm so close! Oh my God! - she had no control over her body.
As Marg's screams grew louder and more frantic, Colin sensed that she was on the verge of release. His own excitement reached a new level as he watched her writhing beneath him, her body trembling with impatience.
With a final surge of energy, he increased the pace of his thrusts. Each one pushed her closer to the edge until finally, with a stifled scream, she collapsed around him in a blinding flash of ecstasy.
Her inner walls clenched tightly against his shaft, unleashing his own explosive climax almost instantly.
He threw his head back and roared triumphantly, emptying himself deep inside her with a force that left him weak and breathless.
For several long moments, neither of them spoke, content to simply wallow in the glow of their passionate encounter. But in the end, reality came down on them like an icy shower, reminding them both of the hard truth they had so desperately tried to ignore.
- We can't go on like this. I don't know if this was a good idea - whispered Colin into her neck.
Marg looked confused at the headliner of the car.
- What do you mean, Colin?
He rose and noticed that Marg was staring at him with confusion etched on her face. He realized that he needed to clarify his thoughts before they got out of hand.
- What I mean - he began slowly - is that we can't pretend that everything is fine between us - he sighed heavily, combing his hand through his tousled hair, trying to gather his scattered thoughts - our relationship has been strained for months, and this... this doesn't help.
- But... I want to start again, baby... I love you more than you can imagine... I want to be with you! I need you! - she felt she wanted to cry.
Colin's heart fluttered at the sight of Marg's impassioned declaration, but he knew that words alone would not solve their problems. They needed action, concrete steps towards healing and rebuilding their broken relationship.
- Look, I love you too, Marg, but we can't just sweep everything under the rug and expect it to go away - he took her hand in his, squeezing gently as he continued - we need to address the issues that brought us here in the first place, the breakdown in communication, the trust issues...
- I know, I know I made some mistakes… I mean you did… but I’m here to help you. I want to help you with your drinking problem. I want you to be healthy and happy. I want us to be happy together, again. What do you say? - she looked at him with hope in her eyes.
While he appreciated her concern, he couldn't help wondering if this was another attempt to sweep their deeper problems under the rug.
- Thanks for your support, Marg, but I think it would be better if I talk to a professional about my drinking habits - he hesitated for a moment before adding quietly - and as for being happy together...
- Go on, Colin.
Colin hesitated, unsure how to express his feelings without hurting Marg further.
- I don't want to give up on us, but we need time to sort everything out. We've been stuck in this cycle of bickering and reconciliation for too long now - his voice faltered slightly as he continued - maybe when we both have some time to breathe and reflect, we can come back together stronger than ever.
- You want a break? Again?! - she was beginning to feel anger mixed with crying. Her hormones began to take control of her.
Colin saw a grimace of hurt and anger appear on Marg's face. He immediately regretted not choosing his words more carefully. He reached out to gently touch her shoulder, hoping to express his sincerity in this way.
- No, I don't want a break exactly... but maybe we need to take a step back from each other for a while - his expression softened as he looked into her eyes - it's not about giving up on us, it's about giving ourselves a chance to heal and grow as individuals so that we can be better partners for each other when we get back together.
- But... Colin, I'm pregnant... I don't want to be alone now, again. I've been alone for too long, without you. It was so hard for me.
- Oh God, Marg... I'm so sorry - he pulled her close, feeling the weight of their future together.
Their lives were about to change forever, and he couldn't imagine going through it without her by his side.
- Yes, you hurt me so much!
- Yes, I know... I know - he whispered into her hair.
His head spun slightly, but he knew that now was not the time for selfish thoughts. They had a baby on the way and needed to focus on building a stable environment for their family.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
- We will make it, Marg. We will fix it. Together we will figure out how to deal with these challenges.
- That's why I need you close to me. I don't want you to sit in the bar and drink. I want you to be by my side.
Colin nodded, understanding the seriousness of her request. He knew he had to curb his drinking habits for the sake of their growing family.
- You're right, I shouldn't be spending so much time at the bar - he sighed heavily, realizing how difficult it would be to break these old patterns - I promise to cut down on my drinking and focus on being present for you and our baby.
- I’ll help you to find a good specialist to help you with your problem - she kissed him on the cheek.
- Thank you, Marg. Having someone who believes in me makes all the difference.
- Yes, you must be strong for our baby, for our family.
- Our child deserves the best version of me - he squeezed her hand tightly, resolving to face all challenges with courage and conviction - together we will build a loving and supportive home for our little one.
- Okay enough of this talk. I'm cold, I could use some clothes - she laughed, pulling herself out of his grasp.
As they searched for clothes in the car, Colin couldn't shake the feeling that they had crossed the line today. Although he longed for closeness with Marg, he knew that their actions were driven by longing and desperation.
- Let's get dressed and try to forget about it for the time being - he helped her gather the scattered clothes, hoping they could salvage the remnants of their dignity - we need to focus on moving forward together, not dwell on mistakes made under the influence of the moment.
- So sex in the car was a mistake? I don't think so! It was wonderful!
Colin hesitated, not knowing how to answer. On the one hand, he shared the passion and desire during their meeting, on the other hand, he realized that their actions were impulsive.
- While it may have been wonderful at the time, I think we need to be honest with ourselves about why we acted the way we did - he looked her honestly in the eyes, wanting her to understand his point of view - we were both vulnerable and desperate. This is not a healthy foundation for intimacy. Let's strive for a deeper bond based on trust and respect, not just physical attraction.
- It's true, but I'm not complaining one bit. I want to do it again.... one day.
- Marg, I can hear you loud and clear. I know you want to be close to me. But right now we need to focus on healing our emotional wounds and rebuilding trust between us - he sighed loudly - when the time is right, I promise we will share moments like this again. Just not until we work through everything else first.
- Shut up! You're acting like a serious detective again. Be yourself, Colin! I want my Colin back!
- You are right. Sometimes I get carried away with trying to fix everything and end up losing sight of what's really important - he put his arms around her, pulling her close - from now on, let's promise each other that we will put our relationships above everything else. And yes, that includes playing together - he laughed.
- Oh, this is what I mean!
He hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
- Will you spend the night with me in my bed tonight? - he asked hesitantly.
- Okay, why not! - she smiled broadly.
Feeling relieved that his mood had improved, Colin smiled at Marg. He knew they still had a long way to go, but for now it was important to enjoy each other's company and strengthen the bond.
- Let's go home and spend some time together. Maybe watch a movie or just talk about anything that comes to mind. No pressure, no expectations, just being ourselves.
He kissed her gently on the forehead, hoping to reassure her of his commitment to making things right between them.
- Yes, let’s go home. I need a shower - she laughed and kissed him.
As they walked toward home, Colin couldn't help but feel a new sense of hope for their relationship. He knew they had challenges ahead, but he was determined to overcome them with her.
- I'll join you in the shower, if you don't mind the company - he suggested jokingly.
- Sure, feel free to join me. You don't have to be a good boy - she laughed.

Notes
Everybody is all smiles for the group picture, from heroes to villains and everything in-between. Even characters who were otherwise sticks in the mud like Hank genuinely smile for the picture. Villains such as Muntz, de la Cruz, Lotso, Thunderclap and his gang, Syndrome, Evelyn, Randall, Waternoose, Hopper, Skinner, and Ercole, as much of evil psychopaths they were, are seen tenderly and respectfully singing along. Even Sid, who was a massive bully to Hannah, is seen giving her a kind brotherly embrace. Also, most movies’ main cast seem to be cramped together. Even the villains stand near their respective heroes, everyone in a healthy relationship with their families and loved ones are tenderly holding each other close, and many of the larger characters offer their bodies for the smaller ones.
Forky, Heimlich, Dory, Jack-Jack, Mater, WALL-E, and one of the triplets wave at the camera.
Dim and Wee Dingwall give the camera dopey smiles.
The egg-shaped bluebirds and the gawky bird stand perched above the entrance. The bluebirds are happy to have the gawky bird with them, a far cry from how they treated him in their short.
Sulley carries Boo tenderly in his arms. Helen does the same to Jack-Jack, as do Presto with Alec, Carl and Russell with Kevin’s babies, Elinor and Fergus with their triplet sons, Embarrassment with Envy, Massimo with Machiavelli, and Izzy with Sox.
Terri attempts to dance before his other half stops him.
Hank carries Marlin, Dory, and Nemo in a coffee pot.
Voyd and Abby giddily bounce in place, clearly the most excited for the photo.
Linguini carries Remy while Colette holds Django and Emile.
WALL-E and EVE hold the umbrellas from The Blue Umbrella.
HAN-S still can’t stay still, shaking aggressively as the photo is taken.
Kevin and her babies take the time to mimic Carl once again.
Maudie and the Clan Dingwall hunk share a loving look.
Young Macintosh flexes his pecs while giving the camera a cocky smile, the same type of smile given by characters like Terry, Darby, and Clod.
The Witch has her Crow standing perched on her shoulder.
Being stationary volcanoes, Uka and Lele are unable to leave their photo. Thankfully, they have Thunderclap and his gang to hold it so they can be in the group picture.
Nostalgia sticks her head out from behind Embarrassment, clearly hiding from the other emotions.
Riley, Grace, and Bree all carry Knick together while Riley’s parents carry the Miami and Florida knick knacks, Val and the Fire Hawks carry the Egypt, Jamaica, Palm Springs, Israel, and Death Valley knick knacks, and Coach Roberts carries Sunny Atlantis in her fish bowl.
Cindy, Son’s fiancée, winks at the camera as the photo is taken.
Machiavelli gives the camera his standard bored look.
Mei has her red hair, panda ears, and panda tail, continuing to embrace her panda.
Aaron Z gives the camera a thumbs up while Tae Young makes a heart with his hands.
Izzy gives Sox a neck scratch.
Alisha and Kiko’s inclusion also counts due to their backlash following the movie’s release.

Hello! I was wondering if you could help vet/verify the GFM of my sister’s friend, Hanaa Ibrahim?
If you want to get in contact with Hanaa directly, I can text her and ask. I’m afraid she and her family don’t have an online presence, but as proof she’s a real person, her college’s alumni collective shared her fundraiser: https://www.instagram.com/p/C6wVR9JxSt9/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet
@syd-beads4evac is also selling jewelry to help! I apologize if the links don’t work or look suspicious, I tried everything I could to attempt to get them to work. I understand you likely have a huge message backlog, thank you for all the work that you do!

Hello there. Thank you for sending this in and very sorry for this late response.
First, I have to clarify that I am not a Palestinian so I cannot vet or verify fundraisers and has never done so. I only check whether a particular tumblr url is possibly one of the scammers that we've been tracking on here. If the account does not look like the usual scammers, then I try to look around to see if a Palestinian user has already vetted them OR if they have another social media account linked on their blog that could indicate from past posts that they are indeed who they say they are on their asks.
Since you, yourself is vetting this fundraiser, know the person running it personally, and have very kindly provided us with these links, then I trust you and I trust that this is genuine.
(Looking around just after typing this, I see user @/ibtisams have also answered this ask and posted the gfm link here.)
Please consider donating to this gofundme for Hanaa's family. They are currently at $34,270USD of their $100,000 goal.
You can also try purchasing items from @syd-beads4evac who is directing 100% of proceeds to this fundraiser.

The continuous bombardment and the ongoing genocide pose a significant threat to their well-being. What pains me even more is that due to the lack of medications in Gaza, my Mom, who is a type 1 Diabetis patiant and was scheduled for an urgent eye surgery, have had no access to insulin or any medical care for the past 3 months. Some of my family members sought refuge in the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. However, my parents, and sisters have no alternative place to stay, forced to remain in the Nusierat refugee camp, which is now the subject of continuous severe bombardment since christmas started.” Am on my knees requesting for your donations. Please help where possible.
Hello all. The P/aypal linked in this account is to someone named Nour Samar. But after reverse image searching their icon, I found this GoFundMe by Rawan AbuMahady.
Tumblr media
The name Nour Samar is not mentioned anywhere in the GoFundMe.
This is almost certainly a scam using a real Canadian-Palestinian family's information. Shame on you, and here's the GoFundMe link for anyone who wants to donate to the actual family.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL ABOUT DONATING TO PEOPLE IN GAZA!
LOTS OF SCAMMERS HAVE POPPED UP IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS.

Bratty princess with a capital p, huh? Well, if you were a princess, which one would you be Nour? 👑
mhm!! i am quite witty and sophisticated with my wording, aren't i? hihihi <3
i am assuming you're referring to disney princesses, so i'll visually go with snow white, but character wise it'll have to be mulan, pocahontas or rapunzel, cause they're strong, brave n empowered bad bitches that fight for what they want!!
thank you for that thought provoking question! <3

🍃🍃From the words of Ayatullah al-Karbalai, Sayed Ahmad al-Najafi, may his shadow endure:
A few days before the due time - that is, the appointed period for the apparent separation of al-Siddiqa al-Tahira (Fatima) from this world - she called Asmaa and said: ... I do not like the shapes of the coffins in the city. Asmaa got surprised and said: What is the occasion of this speech, my lady, and what does it have to do with you? She, peace be upon her, said: Rather, the matter concerns me, “The garment is placed on the woman while it shows her shape for whoever is looking”, that’s why, I want a coffin that doesn’t allow my body to be seen when I’m lying in it. She was involved in the unseen realm to the extent that she did not want anyone in the world to see any traces of her existence, so she did not leave any trace. ...So, (Asmaa) went and brought some palm leaves, and made a coffin from them... Sayeda al-Zahra, peace be upon her, was very pleased with it. What did an eighteen-year-old young woman who had everything - meaning she had Ali, peace be upon him - see in this world and from these people so that she started looking at her coffin next to her room and smile? I swear by the right of Ali, peace be upon him, that the world in which there is no manifestation of Ali, peace be upon him, is not a place to live in, even for Sayeda al-Zahra, peace be upon her. In a place where the name of Ali, peace be upon him, is not mentioned, life is no longer life.
📚Mishkat al-Nour, p.197.
