York St John University Discover Islam Week 2024

Today capped off the last event of the week.
Thank you to all those who attended Islam 101 and hope you found value. We had some who asked for the recording but due to recording issues we can’t provide this unfortunately but feel free to get in touch ([email protected]) and we can run this again by all means.
Also we have a very similar previous presentation which covers very much the same topics so hope you enjoy this in the meantime!

Salam! (Peace)

In full solidarity with the oppressed brothers and sisters of 🇵🇸 and through Palestine the whole of humanity at large 🌍 May Allah bring victory and peace to our beloved Palestine and its people ❤️

This oppression has been for three generations. Imagine you, your parents, grandparents and great-grandparents innocently going through the scenes you are seeing on the TV (of that which is actually shown) but every other day. (after your land was usurped!) That is Palestine, whilst, in an unbelievable show of Western media arrogance it is portrayed that Palestine is to be blamed. It is as if history began one week ago; as if the context of 70+ years of tyranny at the hands of the Zionist government is a thing of mere imagination.

We stand with the people of Palestine, to the sanctity of their lives and property, we stand with the support of our Jewish brothers and sisters of humanity, from the same Father Abraham (Alayhis Salam), whose Rabbis are vocal against the scriptural legitimacy of Israel, we stand with the support from our Palestinian Christian brothers and sisters of humanity, from the same Father Abraham (Peace be upon him) who are also being targeted and oppressed by Zionist Israel, we together as the people of the book condemn in the strongest terms the boundless evil war crimes of Zionist Israel.

Free Free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🖤🤍💚❤️

P.s. Did you miss the Demonstration last week? Come along to the York Mosque Open House this Saturday where a brief history of Palestine will be shared! York Mosque Saturday 21st 4.30PM - 6.30PM
