Es Selamun Aleykum ve Rahmetullahi ve Berakatuh

We are with you in a very active week. This week has been an intense week with various developments taking place all around the world.
If we examine our news headlines for this week in order,

  • River of Blood in Gaza
  • Boycott of Uyghur Persecution against China
  • Are the US and Iran Reaching an Agreement Again?
  • Israel-Lebanon Tension
  • Major Military Exercise from Taiwan
  • Hindus Attacked Muslims in Nepal
we can summarize it as such. As you can see, it was quite an intense week.
So let's examine what happened this week in order.

River of Blood in Gaza

The situation in Gaza is perhaps worse than ever before. As of now, the term "lake of blood" is no longer just a figure of speech for Gaza. Currently, in the literal sense of the word, rivers of blood are flowing through the streets of Gaza. Moreover, despite all this cruelty, countries whose power is not enough to stop this stopped Israeli Terror Minister Ben-Gvir's plan to place Nile crocodiles around the Ketziot Prison on the grounds of animal rights. While mass funerals of more than 100 people are being held in Gaza and blood flows in streams in the streets, caring about the rights of wild crocodiles rather than innocent lives is baseness to say the least. O my Lord! You are witness that we are not pleased with this cruelty and we do our best against it. Forgive us, save our oppressed brothers and sisters, and destroy these oppressors at our hands. Amin.

Boycott of Uyghur Persecution against China

The US imposed new import bans on 43 Chinese companies, citing allegations of forced labor of Uyghurs in East Turkestan. China rejected the decision and reacted to the sanctions coming right after the US-China trade talks. Despite all this, Turkey continues to establish friendly relations with the Chinese administration as if there were no such problem at all. Despite everything that has happened, not even having as much dignity and honor as the disbelievers is truly a painful situation. May Allah reform and guide us all. Amin.

Are the US and Iran Reaching an Agreement Again?

In the US-Iran war that keeps starting and stopping, Trump postponed the new attack for now in the hope of a quick deal that would limit Iran's nuclear activities and open the Strait of Hormuz. While Iran continues negotiations through Oman, Israel says it could attack if Iran advances its nuclear or missile program again. On the other hand, Iran warned that if the US attacks again, it could strike oil fields, refineries, and energy infrastructure in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and other Gulf countries.

Israel-Lebanon Tension

New talks mediated by the US between Israel and Lebanon have begun in Rome. The talks focus particularly on security, reducing threats against Israel, and strengthening the Lebanese state's control in the south; however, with the start of the talks, clashes on the Israel-Lebanon line have also increased simultaneously.

Major Military Exercise from Taiwan

Taiwan has launched a major 10-day military exercise to prepare for a possible Chinese attack. In the exercise, not only military units but also the continuation of communication, logistics, ports, defense industry, and civilian production under war conditions are being tested. Considering the increasing political, economic, and military crises worldwide, it can be said that the outbreak of a world war hangs by a thread.

Hindus Attacked Muslims in Nepal

Hindus attacked Muslims in the Madhesh/Terai region of Nepal. Anti-Islamic and anti-Muslim hostility by Hindus is displayed quite clearly in India and Nepal. Attacks, insults, verbal and physical harassment against Muslims, and attacks on mosques have been continuously increasing recently. The Muslims who suffer from India's oppression in Kashmir are also our brothers in faith. Please let us be sensitive regarding these matters, and even if we can do nothing else, let us pray for our brothers and sisters and be angry at the enemies of Islam.


Yes, it was a week where we had to convey very sad news to you once again. InshaALLAH, there will be weeks where we will see better news together. However, instead of waiting for good news to happen during this process, we can strive to do deeds that will be the subject of good news. May my Lord grant us all the opportunity to strive for His sake. Amin.

Effort is from us, appreciation is from ALLAH.

Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful." (Surah Az-Zumar - Verse 53)

Selamun aleykum.
