November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

The Stampede is not an "event" or a sport.  It's a sick sport and arrant animal abuse. The stress and physical pain suffered by bulls and calves are enormous.  Many of these animals end up with broken bones and ruptured veins / mucles when huge hulking men wrestle with them.  It can be dreadful to watch, I don't know how people can amuse themselves and find it entertaining.  It is absolutely shameful and shocking that humans in the 21st century who're supposed to be living in the world's most "civilized country" have no hesitation subjecting animals to such unimaginable cruelty for the purpose of entertainment.

If such a culture existed anywhere in the Middle-East, Iran, Turkey, Pakistan or Indonesia - the world would be finger-pointing and gossiping about the "creulty on animals" going on in "backward" countries.  But when that sort of backwardness is practiced in North America in full festive gear, it carries a totally different interpretation of upholding traditions of a great civilization. 

The human rights approach of Canada is baffling to say the least.  It talks loud and clear of the importance to being tolerant and humane - and indeed it is on some fronts but others are callously ignored namely rodeos, seal hunt and violence in hockey despite its dangerous consequences on participants .. and all this only for human entertainment.  How astonishing! 

Rodeo is a modern-day gladiator sport, just like the ball hockey brawls.  It should be tabooed in every civilized community.

Thank you for expressing this brother.  I couldn't agree more.  Calgary stampede is a national disgrace.  Such 'sports' must be absolutely abolished in the 21st century.  Canada's humane values are so inconsistent.  You articulated that very well.
