The #UN has found that the #Israeli government, #Netanyahu, & the #IDF guilty of #genocide of #Gaza & #Palestinians. Specifically, the report found that “direct statements and patterns of conduct prove genocidal intent, and that no other reasonable explanation fits the evidence.” 🧵

“[T]he killing of Palestinians since 7 October 2023
occurred mainly through three different means: (i) killing through attacks against
protected objects (such as civilian homes and healthcare facilities) where civilians
were present; (ii) targeting civilians and other protected persons, for example, during
the evacuations, within safe zones or at shelters; and (iii) deaths due to the deliberate
infliction of conditions of life (such as the blockade of medicine and medical
equipment and humanitarian aid from entering into Gaza).
50. As such, the Commission concludes that the actus reus and mens rea of
‘killing members of the group’ under article II(a) of the Genocide Convention are
established.”

1. #Muslims & #Stoicism: Caution Is Needed

You’ll hear #Stoic quotes all over X:
• “You suffer more in imagination than in reality.”
• “Focus on what you can control.”
• “Don’t be a slave to emotions.”

Sounds Islamic? It’s not. Here’s why you need to be careful. 👇 2. Stoicism in brief:

#Stoicism is a Greco-Roman philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium (~300 BCE). Its core teachings include:

• Accept fate (fatalism)
• Control emotions (apatheia)
• Live by reason (logos)
• Be indifferent to pleasure/pain (ataraxia)
• The universe is divine (pantheism)

Turns out he not only did NOT read the paper, he doubled down. @MMetaphysician said it could be Asrar is just lacking in comprehension but honestly, I don’t I agree. Further analysis coming later إن شاء الله @ShAsrarRashid also inferred &/or hinted that @MMetaphysician would be cured of his illness if he (Br. Jake) stops criticising the Ashari madhab. I’m sorry Sheik, when did you get the knowledge of the unseen? 🤨
It’s good you helped clean up the litter in Brum (may Allah reward you for it), but honestly you need to chill sometimes 😒😒😒

This is important so I hope my Muslim brothwrs&sisters rake note. 🧵

I was talking to some #Muslim brothers today. The things they were saying really disappointed me and I’m here to ensure nobody else falls into this jahiliyya 1/x It is important to understand that as Muslims we rely on the Quran & (authentic) Hadith. We should be mindful of what we say (& I say this for myself too). Going against what the Quran says and the Hadith teaches could take you outside the fold of Islam. And nobody wants that 2/x
