Palestinian Lives Matter!

A mosque is a sacred place of worship, where any Muslim finds himself safe. During the night of the last Friday of Ramadan this year, however, Israeli forces barged inside Masjid Al-Aqsa, leaving over 200 Palestinians injured.

Israeli forces deployed outside Masjid Al-Aqsa

If you are unaware, Masjid Al-Aqsa was the first Qibla of Islam, is the second house of Allah (SWT) built on the earth, and is referred to over 70 times in the Quran, directly or indirectly. 

Violence erupted when the heavily deployed Israeli forces stormed in. Israeli police shot rubber bullets and stun grenades around East Jerusalem during the protest of the ethnically cleansed Palestinians against the eviction from their homes.

With packed in the mosque, many Palestinians protested in support of those being evicted from their homes on land claimed by Jews in Sheikh Jarrah. 

Due to the ruling of an Israeli court, over 550 Palestinians face the threat of dispossession. (The court also ruled that $20,000 must be paid for legal expenses by the ones evicted) These rulings are explicit efforts to turn the historic Palestinian neighborhood into a Jewish one.

Why are so many silent about the terrorism of this illegitimate state?

No matter how big or small, use your platform to raise your voice against the atrocities of the Israelis.

Adversity and loss make a man wise.

Adversity and loss are the challenges that life brings to us, it is the response of human beings how they handle themselves in such situations. Picture credits: @/kilarov345 on Unsplash The precise qualities of the head, heart and hand can be acquired only through struggle in loss and adversity. In times of difficulty, we gain wisdom more swiftly than in prosperous times. In adverse conditions, one can either flee or face up to the problems and deal with them and, the sagacity comes from the experience, observation, trial, error and the counseling of others. Adversity and loss bring out all the qualities in a man; qualities like patience, self-reliance and humbleness, prove to be a much better school than success and prosperity. Success and ease make a man futile. C an a fighter enjoy the victory if the opponent is weak and broken? He falls prey to comfort and does not fight for real happiness. Loss and adversity not only make a man reach the pinnacles of his glory but also bring him

Your Authority Does Not Make You Superior

Credits: Jot It Down By Aina The human urge to exert authority is far greater than his value of morals. You can quite literally sense a sharp-witted, quintessential authoritative individual from one who is under the authority itself. When you talk with someone influential, you ought to do so with respect because you are made aware of their prominence.  You are helpless right now; had you had the authority, you would turn the tables, won't you? That way, the way they are inducing problems for you, you would do the same to them, even worse if conceivable. Now that is authority. The way an individual is treated strictly according to their authority in unreal if you look at it; how you feel a commitment to well-wish someone in command, and the need to brush off anyone under you. I reckon this post is very much but a proper one, but I feel the need to put this out, to however much of an audience I can.  Just because you have power over someone, does not mean you own them. Authority is l

An Unusual Passion

Everyone has a knack for doing something they admire and strive towards, and being a music critic would be an uncommon ardor. A music critic is a person who is professionally engaged in the analysis and interpretation of works of art. Whether it is in a foreign language or their own, people tend to keep an opinion about the art they listen to. The discography of an artist is the combination of various styles, genres, instruments, techniques, composition, layers, and ideas that are used to produce an album or single by the artist. Bound to the boundaries of my home due to the lockdown amid the Coronavirus, I stumbled upon BTS' music, and to say the least, I was mind blown when I discovered the making of their art. BTS's breakdown of their music got me into the art of criticizing music. I was keen to choose the analysis of music as a passion as I habitually interpret the music I listen to. An example of an artist making me discover something new is when I got to know SUGA's s
