We want to wish everyone who has begun their Ramadan celebrations Ramadan Mubarak!
If you are fasting, we wish you strength over the coming month.
Ramadan begins at varying times across the globe, beginning with the sighting of the crescent moon 🌙

Today in Labor History January 24, 1835: Slaves in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil, started a revolt, which helped lead to the end slavery there 50 years later. Muslim slaves and freedmen, inspired by Muslim teachers, launched the rebellion during Ramadan. They were also inspired by the Haitian Revolution (1791−1804) and wore necklaces bearing the image of President Dessalines, who had declared Haitian independence.

À les écouter, il faudrait gérer la France comme une entreprise. À l’instar de Xavier Niel, les grands patrons se lancent dans la présidentielle, et surtout pour le pire. J'ai enquêté sur cette tendance inquiétante https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyAkVa9fYxA&t

La Conferenza dell'Islam democratico del cantone di Jazira ha condannato le parole del ministro dei Beni religiosi, che aveva definito la guerra contro il popolo di Jazira, sia curdo che arabo, come una «conquista e una vittoria», ritenendolo responsabile dello spargimento di sangue.

Let's Talk Religion: *The Man Who Discovered Mental Health 1,000 Years Too Early*
"Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is often seen as a modern invention—but its core ideas were explored over 1,100 years ago by the 9th-century scholar Abu Zayd al-Balkhi.
In this video, we explore al-Balkhi’s groundbreaking writings on mental health, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and the connection between thoughts and behavior—ideas that closely resemble modern psychology and CBT."

🎁 The best gifts come from the heart. Give your students the gift of WADJDA, the delightful story of a convention-defying Saudi girl whose heart is set on the impossible goal of getting a bicycle, from Saudi Arabia's first woman director Haifaa Al Mansour. It's a great film for grades 6-12 & also for watching as a family!

"73 % des musulmans estiment qu’un musulman a le droit de rompre avec l’islam, contre 44 % en 1989. Un tel indicateur de libéralisation normative aurait dû structurer la lecture de l’enquête. Or il est resté largement inaperçu dans le débat public, éclipsé par des items plus compatibles avec le récit d’une « réislamisation ». L’évolution des trente dernières années montre pourtant une dynamique inverse."
