In 1807, Omar ibn Said, a Muslim scholar, was stolen from Senegal & sold into slavery in America. He left behind an autobiography written in Arabic.

To mark the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade & its Abolition, a thread on the remarkable story of Omar… Image
1/ Written in Arabic and recently acquired by the @librarycongress, "The Life of Omar Ibn Said” is not only a rare handwritten personal story of an American slave, but it's also one of the first intimate accounts of the early history of Muslims in the United States.
@librarycongress 2/ Omar wrote his brief autobiography, 190 years ago, & it spent much of the last century forgotten in an old trunk in Virginia. When he wrote it, Omar was 61 and more than two decades into a long enslavement in America, first in Charleston and then North Carolina Image

Did you know that in Arabic there are 12 levels of friendship? With every level of friendship there is an Arabic word to describe it.

From Sadeeq to Khaleel it is rare to find all 12 levels of friendship in one person.

For #FriendshipDay the 12 levels of friendship in Arabic... Image
1/ 𝙎𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙚𝙦 (صديق) - a true friend; someone who doesn't befriend you for an ulterior motive. The word "Sadeeq" is commonly translated as truth, so honesty and loyalty is at the core of this friendship Image
2/ 𝘼𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙨 (أنيس) - someone with whom you're really comfortable and familiar with. Image
