Wrote an opinion piece for the Metro about the role of Muslim services to the white working class hit hardest by austerity “It’s a side of Islam that not all Brits have seen up close before, and one that Tommy Robinson would prefer remains veiled.”

The far right won't help the white working class but Muslims can

Charity begins at home – especially when you’re sharing it with people who are being taught to hate you.

#Ashura #ImamHussain “How many a small party has overcome a large party by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the patient." (Al-Baqara 2: Verse 249) كَمْ مِّنْ فِئَةٍ قَلِيلَةٍ غَلَبَتْ فِئَةً كَثِيرَةًۢ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ مَعَ الصّٰبِرِينَ

Very disappointed to hear about @IslamicRelief cowering to anti-Shia prejudices. The Ummah is in great need of Muslim unity & everyday sectarianism can be defeated by leading organisations taking a stance & championing the right causes. InshaAllah they will review their decision

It’s unfortunate that @IslamicRelief pulled my interview after receiving messages from anti-Shi’a fringe groups who fuel sectarian strife. They sided with people who called my wife @LayaBehbahani a concubine simply because she is a Shia Muslim woman. #Shameful

Dan, look into the Kerbala epic. Hussain, in response to the tyrant Yazid’s attempt to force fealty to him replied, “A man like me can never give allegiance to a man like him.” Hussain was beheaded & trampled upon by ten horses. His legacy is commemorated by 500million every year

William Wallace was dragged naked to Smithfield today in 1305. He was strangled, castrated, disembowled & his insides burnt. Then beheaded & quartered. His crime, according to Edward I, High Treason. His retort: "I could not be a traitor to Edward, for I was never his subject."

A beautiful lecture by Syed Mortadha al-Modarresi in Kerbala tonight, celebrating the birth anniversary of Lady Zainab (a). Amongst his points were that Lady Zainab (a) understood her responsibilities at every given moment and as life evolved: 🧵

1/🧵A comment on @1fantastikday Neil’s Arbaeen speech including ‘Queen’ Elizabeth I have known Neil intimately for almost a decade & so feel in a position to comment. First: The community outrage is a good thing; it proves we will not tolerate any concessions to oppressors

Ah this narration! Imam Ali (a) when speaking about Imam al-Mahdi (a) supplicated “O Allah, make his advent as deliverance from distresses and make the Ummah unite by him.” He then sighed and pointed at his chest showing his eagerness to see him

Dear @premierleague how did the people who committed 9/11, created ISIS, behead scholars like Ayatollah an-Nimr and chop up journalists like Khashoggi pass your ‘Fit and Proper Owners Test’? #NUFCTakeover @NUFC Asking on behalf of humanity.

Congratulations to the Awaited Saviour and to all Mu'mineen on the birth of Imam Ali Al-Ridha (as). We pray to Allah to bless us with the strength and resilience to be successful throughout the trials we face in today's age. Please recite a Salawat for our 8th Holy Imam (as).

Honoured to have recited Ayyam #Fatimiyyah at Masjid az-Zahraa, Vancouver & grateful to the community for attending during such difficult conditions; Covid & snowstorms! We’ll post details about the topic ‘How the Quran intervened on the practices of misogyny’ soon InshaAllah.
