It is our duty as feminists to protect and respect women in Hijabs

i wish it was easier for me to ask for support and reassurance when i need it but every time i try it feels like a jeb bush "please clap" moment. like hahaha i know i haven't done anything praiseworthy but would you consider praising me anyway?? this whole "staying alive" shit's harder than it looks

i don't love life, yet. and i don't love this world, yet. but i hated coffee the first time i tried it, too—and now, i drink it every day just for the flavor. so, i'm determined to keep dipping my toes into this life, this world, until the flavor of it starts to grow on me. bitter things, too, can become sweeter.

We often forget the blessings of basic necessities, and suddenly they don't seem as small anymore. What we experience in this world, in our current times, is what many of our brothers and sisters had been facing for years; no education, no work, no income, no freedom, no peace.

I started this fundraiser last year during my first Ramadan. A small goal of mine to achieve and a reminder to do good not only in this blessed month, but throughout the year. But something that I didn’t do, was to promote it enough. ‎I humbly ask of you for a small favour, that إن شاء الله may we reach this small target. Whether you donate or simply share, these charitable acts will be remembered. ‎جزاك الله خير

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ : "When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him (for the deceased)."

The land of Palestine is our home, the blood of its people is our blood. The tears of its children are our tears, and their longing of freedom for Palestine is our longing. We may not live in Palestine, but Palestine lives in us.

Devin Kelly, All that wanting, right?

i want to be inconvenienced by you. i want to wait for you, i want to hold your things while you do something else, i want to make adjustments to my plans to make space for you.

someone at your side who takes up no space and has no needs of their own is not a person, but a shadow.

i don't want a shadow, i want you. i want my life to be altered by your presence in it. please, inconvenience me.

Hello 🫂

I am Bilal from Gaza. I have experienced many hardships since the beginning of displacement within my country. When the danger for us increased, we moved from place to place in search of safety, but we did not leave Gaza. We took refuge in the south after a long suffering of 150 days, where destruction and exhaustion were our companions at every step.

With great difficulty, some members of my family and I were able to leave for Egypt. Getting here was a safe stop, but the journey was far from over. Our hearts are still in Gaza, where we left behind our loved ones and most of our family amidst difficult circumstances.

We did everything we had to leave Gaza, but the challenges did not end here. We are now struggling to obtain residency in Egypt and everything seems expensive and costly, even the basics of living. Despite all this, we are trying to adapt to the situation, hoping to find the stability we seek, and our hearts remain attached to the homeland and to our people who are still there.

In these difficult circumstances, I hope to receive your support through the GoFundMe donation campaign. Every contribution, however small, helps me and my family to overcome this difficult stage and cover our basic needs until we settle in a safe place. Your support means a lot to us and represents a ray of hope in this difficult journey😔

Find me in the pohutukawa deep, I am running water chuckling as the sunlight plays piano-soft on stone loved smooth, a touch longer -

the melody of promise on curves that bloom like love in springtime in passerine praise flitting delicate amongst the boughs, a poorly kept secret, this beauty in you and I am hiding still beyond the berry brambles, past the ferny hollow marked by years of almost grown fallen in the arms of history

I am here  a zephyr’s whisper against your salty cheek a memory, always was and will be

here, come find me
