1/2 🇺🇸 Be the change. The blueprint from the Civil Rights Movement.
🎙️ “With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., The Other America, Stanford University, April 14, 1967
🇺🇸When I feel despair, I remember Dr. King and the countless civil rights activists—both known and unsung—who peacefully fought for justice, equality and human rights.

Many #religions now come before us with ingratiating smirks and outspread hands, like an unctuous merchant in a bazaar. They offer consolation and solidarity and uplift, competing as they do in a marketplace. But we have a right to remember how barbarically they behaved when they were strong and were making an offer that people could not refuse.

Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.
—Marcus Aurelius

Exercising #faith involves nurturing humility, compassion, and a connection to something greater than yourself, guiding your actions with purpose and integrity.
Megalomania centers on an inflated sense of self-importance and a craving for power, often disregarding others.
Learn to spot the difference.

Alhamdulillah, after long suffering, relief has finally come. Every hardship we endured was a test of faith and patience. May Allah honor the people of Gaza, have mercy on our martyrs, and bring peace and tranquility to the hearts of the survivors. Praise be to Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Just. 🌿
