I would like to offer my condolences to all Christians on the passing of Pope Francis. Pope Francis died two days ago, and there was a huge media hype about his death. Pope Francis was a supporter of the Palestinian cause, supported Gaza, and called for a ceasefire in Gaza. He was deeply concerned about the people dying daily, as well as about children. He is Christian, and we are Muslims, but he made no distinction because he was a humanitarian. Many of us died, but there was never as much media hype as when Pope Francis died. There were days when 500 or 600 people died here every day, and today at least 50 people are dying every day. No one spoke about them. They were wronged and died unjustly. The elderly, children, women, and young people died unjustly under the Zionist machine of destruction and genocide. Enough of your silence. Let one of you speak. Stop the war on us. Bring us food and water. There is no healthy water to drink. We drink salty water, and there is not enough food. We go to bed hungry and wake up hungry. The prices of available food are very high. We want to live a normal life, just like all of you. Don't ignore us. Here's a donation link for me and my family to provide us with food and water until the crossing opens and we can leave Gaza safely. Your donation means a lot to me and helps me a lot, so I'm asking you to donate.

Please donate here.

This powerful image captures the face of a wounded Palestinian woman whose hijab is soaked in blood—likely her own or that of a loved one. Her eyes tell a story of unimaginable pain and strength in the face of loss. She stands in a chaotic hospital hallway, surrounded by others in distress. As an oppressed and weak woman from Gaza, I see myself in her. I, too, have suffered greatly—my baby, Qais, was injured in the war, and the hospital refused to treat him because we cannot pay. Please, I beg you to help us. Your donation can provide the medicine and care Qais urgently needs.

Life in Gaza is unbearable for women like me.

1. I wait in line for two hours just to bring food back to our tent - food that is never enough.

2. I clean the shoes of strangers on the street-just to earn a few coins for Qais's medicine.

3. We were turned away from the hospital-they said no money, no treatment, even for a child as young as Qais.

I carry this pain in silence, but I cannot bear it alone anymore. The woman in this picture used her hijab to try and save her son's life. I am doing everything I can to save mine. But without help, I fear I will lose him too. Please, Donate anything you can-no matter how small. Even a few dollars could mean a meal, a medicine dose, or a chance for Qais to live. Share this, speak up, and help us survive.

Donate Now Here

Please donate for Qais's treatment, Donate Here

Please stop ✋🚨 you're the only hope to save a child😔😭

💬 Just a Small Update, and a Big Thank You

Dear friends, kind hearts, and everyone who has stood with us,

When I first opened my heart to the world and shared our story, I never imagined the amount of love and solidarity we would receive. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve now reached $12,837—a milestone that brings real light to some very dark days.

From the deepest corners of my heart, thank you.

💔 A Journey of Loss, but Also of Strength

As many of you know, I’ve lost 25 of my loved ones during this devastating war. That grief lives with me every single day. It’s in the silence that once held laughter, in the empty spaces where we once gathered as a family.

But through your help, I’ve also felt something else: hope. And that hope is priceless.

“21/Oct/2023 Before It Reached Us: The Day Our Neighbor’s House Was Destroyed” A quiet moment of fear, filmed just before everything changed.

“22/Oct/2023 The Morning After: Our Family Home in Ruins” This is what was left behind after the bombing of our home.

🌿 What Life Looks Like for Us Now

Despite everything, we’re still here. Still surviving. Still hoping.

But things have only gotten harder.

The war has returned, more brutal than before—and for over a month now, Gaza has been completely sealed off. No food is coming in. No medical supplies. No aid. No trade. No one is allowed to leave, and no one is allowed to enter.

We’re trapped.

🏚 We live with the fear of tomorrow, every single day. Airstrikes, drones, and the uncertainty of what might happen next. 👨‍👩‍👧 Our family is forever changed—we haven’t just lost people; we’ve lost pieces of ourselves. 📉 Basic needs go unmet—even clean water feels like a luxury now. Medicines, if they exist at all, are unreachable.

And yet…

Your support reminds us that we’re not forgotten. It reminds us that someone, somewhere, is still listening. That someone still cares. That we’re not completely alone in this.

Every message. Every share. Every dollar. It tells us: You’re walking this road with us. And that gives us the strength to keep going.

💖 What You Can Do

If you’ve already donated—thank you beyond words. If you can share our story again, it could reach someone who can help.

Even $5 means warmth, comfort, and a chance to breathe a little easier.

✨ Why It All Matters

This isn’t just about reaching a fundraising goal. It’s about surviving war with dignity. It’s about believing in tomorrow. It’s about making sure my daughter grows up knowing that the world did not look away.

Thank you for your kindness, patience, and belief in our humanity. You’ve helped me find my voice—and I will use it to keep hope alive.

🙏 From the Heart: A Quiet Apology

There’s something I need to say—something that’s been on my heart for some time.

When I first began sharing our story, I didn’t know what the right way was. I was scared, grieving, and trying to protect my family in any way I could. I reached out to many people, hoping someone, anyone, would see us. In that process, I now realize I may have overstepped, and I might have made some feel overwhelmed.

If that happened, I am truly sorry.

Please believe me when I say it was never out of disregard or pushiness. It came from a place of fear—fear of being forgotten, fear of not being able to keep my family safe, fear of watching everything I love slip away in silence.

I’m learning as I go. I’ve slowed down. I’m more mindful now, trying to share our journey in a way that feels respectful of the space and hearts of those listening.

If my words ever came at the wrong time, or in the wrong way, I hope you can understand where they came from—and I hope you can forgive me.

Thank you for seeing past my mistakes. Thank you for still being here. It means more than I can ever explain.

tumblr marking palestinian fundraisers as explicit content... it's just another attempt by staff to silence and harm people living under a genocide.

like palestinians have had their entire lives disrupted and can never ever go back to the old 'normal'. they're still being killed while the privileged argue whether or not what they're going through is a genocide.

to try to hurt a person living in an active genocide is beyond inhumane. there's no way to justify it.

i request everyone to please continue helping palestinians. kindly consider donating to alaa, a mother of two young children. help her afford necessities in this very difficult time.

Gaza is currently experiencing one of the most severe humanitarian crises in its history. The Israeli blockade, which has been in place for more than seven weeks, has completely halted the entry of humanitarian aid, causing severe shortages of food, fuel, and medical supplies.

It is estimated that more than 1.8 million people are affected by the hunger crisis, with children particularly at risk of malnutrition.

The ongoing bombing has destroyed vital infrastructure, including hospitals, making access to healthcare nearly impossible. Over 90% of the population has been displaced from their homes and now lives in overcrowded areas lacking basic necessities.

Under these harsh conditions, residents live in fear and despair, with some describing the situation as a "slow death" from hunger and thirst. Despite international appeals, humanitarian access remains blocked, further exacerbating the crisis.

Pope Francis has died aged 88, the Vatican confirmed on Monday. His final public appearance was on Easter Sunday, when an aide read a message in his name urging a ceasefire in Gaza and describing the humanitarian situation as “deplorable”. The pontiff, hospitalised in February with double pneumonia, was the first pope from the Americas and led the Catholic Church since 2013. He had been an outspoken critic of Israel’s war on Gaza. In December 2024, after an Israeli strike on Jabalia killed seven children, he said: “This is cruelty, this is not war.”

Catholics from the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza gathered this morning to pray for Pope Francis, who called them every evening even through his illness. [x]

[siraj2025]

We offer our deepest condolences to our Christian brothers and sisters around the world on the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis, a voice of truth and a courageous defender of the oppressed, especially our people in Gaza. The Pope repeatedly stood with our cause, condemned the injustices inflicted upon us, and spoke of the suffering of our children, women, and elderly under siege and fire.

Today, as the world bids farewell to this great man, we would like to remind everyone that Gaza is still bleeding. Every day, children are killed, innocent people are bombed, and families lose their loved ones under the rubble of their homes. Hunger ravages the stomachs of children, medicine is scarce, and shelter is a distant dream.

We appeal to you, in the name of humanity, to raise your voices with us, to extend a helping hand to the people of Gaza who are facing a silent war of extermination, and to continue to carry the torch of Pope Francis, who illuminated the paths of justice.

We asked students of the ISNAD initiative:

"Why should we approve your joining the initiative?"

Here are some of their answers:

"I need a place I can consistently go to so I can complete the few remaining hours I need and graduate. There is pressure on all internet spots due to the circumstances, and I can't find a place with internet where I can study and complete my projects comfortably."

"Because I desperately need strong internet to continue my university studies, which have been affected by the war on Gaza. I used to get excellent grades and was first in my class. Today, I am behind in my studies and suffering greatly due to losing my laptop and the weak internet and electricity we have."

"Due to displacement and the lack of internet and electricity in the displacement area, as well as the difficult economic situation, I need a quiet place that provides these services because I am in the graduation phase."

"It's difficult to provide internet and electricity in my current residence. Every time I need to charge my device, I travel long distances, and in the end, the battery doesn't last an hour. By joining, you will help me provide a place with electricity and internet so that I can complete the remaining university semesters with excellence and maintain my excellent GPA."

"As a medical student, in light of these conditions we are suffering from, the lack of internet and electricity, I need a nearby place to be able to download lectures, take exams, and charge my device that I study from. In addition to the lack of quiet and a suitable environment for studying, I desperately need a few hours of effective study with good concentration."

Support them... Stand by them... Write about them...

Hi everyone. I have been in communication with Yahya from Gaza for a while now. Recently, his uncle was injured and recieved an injury to his pancreas and requires an operation. I've spoken to Yahya and he would like a GoFundMe campaign to cover his uncles expenses, separate from the one he currently uses to raise funds for his family and his little brothers burn injuries. Unfortunately, I am currently managing a fundraiser page for another family, and I don't think I can juggle multiple fundraisers at once right now. I am writing this message in the hopes that someone who can and is willing to set up and manage a GoFundMe page for Yahya will see it. Please reach out to me and I will get you connected with Yahya if you are interested.

Good Friday in Gaza, 2025.

Christians in Gaza observed Good Friday rituals inside the Church of Saint Porphyrius, despite the surrounding destruction and ongoing bombardment by the US-backed terrorist state of Israel.

A powerful display of resilience and faith amid dire humanitarian conditions.
