From the #Crimean #Tatars to new communities who've found a home here, the #Muslim community is an essential part of Ukraine's past, present and future.
We value the contribution of Ukrainian Muslims in resisting russian aggression and honour those who defend the country on the battlefield.
We also count on the continued support of Muslim countries in helping achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in #Ukraine.

I second that.

Boy, it's a great all those #Arab & #Muslim groups told their followers to help get trump elected. Yeah, he'll do something... he'll support the Israeli right-wingers who's wet dream is the destruction of every living thing in Gaza.
Yep, good thing they decided going after Joe Biden for hurting their sense of importance was reason to help a muslim hating, right-wing supporting lunatic get elected. I'm sure all the innocent people of #gaza are grateful to them
Acc/to court documents filed by the govt, #RashaAlawieh was questioned by a #CBP officer about photos on her phone that appeared to depict #Hezbollah fighters. Alawieh allegedly said they were shared by others within WhatsApp messaging groups of friends & family.
Alawieh allegedly said her interest in Nasrallah was in his standing as a #religious figure within the Shia #Muslim community, as opposed to his role as a political leader….
[16:55] Muslim nations reject Trump’s call to empty Gaza Strip of Palestinians
Foreign ministers from Muslim nations have rejected calls by US President Donald Trump to empty the Gaza Strip of its Palestinian population, and instead backed a plan for an administrative committee of Palestinians to govern the territory to allow reconstruction to go ahead.

#Zakat, obligatory charity in Islam, has become more individual over time due to distrust in collecting institutions. Now, Muslim-led nonprofits are adopting transparent policies to address donor concerns. https://buff.ly/f6ltxp9

The proposed extension would cover the #Muslim holy month of #Ramadan, which started over the wknd & concludes at the end of March, & the #Jewish holiday of #Passover, April 12–20. Giving #Israel & #Hamas ~7wks to reach a comprehensive agreement.
“Hamas is not going to return all of the hostages until it has ironclad guarantees that the Israelis will withdraw their forces & formally declare & abide by an end of the #war…. No one is going to give Hamas that guarantee,” Miller said.

Well done #Illinois.
A jury in suburban #Chicago convicted a man on Friday on #murder & #HateCrime charges in the fatal stabbing of a 6-yr-old #Palestinian American boy who lived at his property. The killing, which took place days after #Hamas attacked #Israel in 2023, was fueled by anti-#Muslim #hate….
The defendant, Joseph M. Czuba, 73, faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced.

#Ramadan is drawing near. Every year I have a look around the creative web for some nice art to send to my #Muslim dear ones.
However, this year, 90% of the pictures around were not made by human hands (eughhh) and quite a few good artists have dropped off the radar alltogether.
Does anyone around here have some recommendations (CC, small fee or donation)? that would be great!
Styles that work best with my crowd are 'sleek with metal accents' or 'cute and colourful'.
I did it to the Jews, too. Fair's fair.

Speaking of #KristiNoem. I came across this very interesting article from #OpenSecrets! I'll betcha Kristi is #Trump's pick for 2028 (assuming he doesn't try and stay in power until...) Anyhow, apparently #JDVance has lost favor already (hasn't sucked up enough?).
#Trump administration profile: Kristi Noem
By Emma Rose Brown
February 5, 2025
"Shortly after winning the election in November, President Donald Trump nominated Kristi Noem to be secretary of homeland security in his second administration. Following a Jan. 17 hearing, her nomination cleared the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and she was confirmed by the Senate on Jan. 25. The longtime Trump loyalist immediately began carrying out his hardline immigration agenda.
"Who is she? After serving in the South Dakota Legislature for four years, Noem represented the state in the House of Representatives from 2011 to 2019, before becoming governor in 2019. As a member of Congress, Noem backed Trump’s Executive Order 13769, which banned travel to the United States by citizens of seven #Muslim-majority countries and temporarily halted the U.S. refugee program. While governor, she deployed dozens of #SouthDakota #NationalGuard members to the southern border in coordination with Texas officials. A lifelong rancher and farmer, Noem was under consideration to be Trump’s running mate until she wrote about killing a family dog in her 2024 memoir, 'No Going Back.'
"Noem has raised nearly $35 million (see federal and state data), in total, for her eight elections. Her two gubernatorial races brought in more than $24 million, and about half of those donations came from out of state. In her most recent gubernatorial election, she received $2.9 million from the Republican Governors Association, more than double its contribution to her first campaign.
"After being elected to Congress, she soon separated herself as a top fundraiser in the freshman class. She raised $169,000 in the first quarter of 2011, the third-most of any first-term member of Congress. During her time in Congress, PACs donated over $3 million, with over half a million in contributions from health professionals and $370,000 from the insurance industry.
"In 2017, she ranked in the top third of members of Congress in terms of wealth, with an estimated net worth of $2.35 million. Her husband, Bryon Noem, owns an insurance agency, which was then valued between $1 million and $5 million.
"Noem’s efforts to send National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border in 2019 were supported by a $1 million donation from #WillisJohnson, the #billionaire Republican donor and founder of junkyard company #Copart."
Why does it matter?
As DHS secretary, Noem will be tasked with overseeing federal immigration policy as well as domestic terrorism. Johnson’s support for National Guard activity, though legal, concerned experts who worried that the private funding of military actions could further politicize the military and set a dangerous precedent."

"A new report by the Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education (IMPACT-se) revealed that #Azerbaijan has made significant strides in its school #curriculum, becoming the first #Muslim-majority country to incorporate a definition of #antisemitism into #textbooks.
The report, published on Thursday, is part of a three-part series on Central #Asian #curricula produced in collaboration with the Ruderman Family Foundation, also examining #Uzbekistan and #Kazakhstan."

Hi! I'm new to mastodon. I have no idea how things work here. Is there a like button? I see a favorite button but does that influence how many ppl see a post? (Edit: answered, thx)
I'm hoping to make some connections. I became #bedbound somewhat recently and I am in way over my head. I'm also looking for #disabled folks from my bg: POC, #Muslim or #Arab, preferably from NYC, has #longcovid. Please say hello if any of this matches you!
Soon I'll make some posts asking for help.
"In an act of interfaith unity, the Chief #Rabbi, leading #imams and other senior #rabbis today signed the #Muslim-#Jewish Reconciliation Accords, which they presented to #KingCharles at Buckingham Palace as a symbol of their commitment to dialogue.
Prominent Muslim and Jewish figures in the #UK came together to sign the landmark agreement named The Drumlanrig Accord, which establishes a constructive framework for sustained #interfaith #solidarity amid rising tension in the UK."
It is sickening to see how silent the so called "progressives" in #Europe and #US are about the terror attack in #Sweden.
The self centered assholes who demanded sympathy and support from the world after every freaking #terror attack in their country are are completely ignoring the worst mass shooting in Sweden's history.
I guess it would have been a whole different story if the terrorist was a #muslim and the target was a jewish school, even the freaking #Trump and #Starmer would have been on #TV condemning it.
