UPDATE: MORE BLANKETS!

After two long weeks of looking, Hussam managed to find 500 blankets for displaced people! The nights in Gaza are quite cold, especially in a tent with little protection from the elements, so these will go a long way to help people stay warm!!

For those of you who have been following this, my tumblr ‘helpgazachildren’ was deleted for unknown reasons. In the meantime, I put together this notion site to help document all the receipts and videos of updates for people who want a backlog of information. I will be continuously updating this site.

Please consider donating today. Your donations go directly to people in need with NO middle man in between. No donation amount is too little, or if you’re unable to donate please spread the link today!!!

For those who cannot donate through paypal, here is Hussam’s gofundme! Please note that Paypal is still the preferred way to donate!

something very beautiful to me about the way elephants are these enormous unbelievably powerful creatures capable of incredible destruction, and they have a special appendage that specifically allows them to interact gently with the world

Translation: [Sorry for the inconvenience. Me and a million and a half Gazans are dying]

in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.

we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.

at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.

there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.

it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.

orange peel theory this pomegranate peel theory that. but have you thought about badaam peel theory? when they soak the almonds overnight and peel them in the morning for you. now that right there is love at its peak.

Are we what we do with time, or are we what time does with us?

Quran Manuscript

Copied by Mahmud Sha'ban

India, Gwalior, 11 July 1399

This signed and dated copy of the Quran produced in northern India near the end of the fourteenth century is a rare survivor: even though Muslims had long been settled in the region, very few manuscripts from that time and place have come down to the present time. The "Gwalior Quran," named for its place of origin, demonstrates the inventiveness of Indian scribes, whose bihari script creatively reworks the lettering typically used to copy the Quran.

Tomb of Sher Shah Suri, Sasaram, Bihar

Syed Altamash Ahmad 🇮🇳 wrote : Tomb of Sher Shah Suri, is one among the best example of Indo-islamic architecture in India.

The 122 feet red sandstone mausoleum, stands in the middle of an artificial lake.

Though this one built much before Taj Mahal and might be inspired Shahjahan to built the garden tomb like Taj Mahal.

even though i am so infinitely proud of everyone who is donating, and even though i am donating all of my store's profits and a sizeable portion of my own income, i'm still so frustrated. i wish i was a millionaire - i would just scroll through the spreadsheet of families desperate to evacuate Gaza, and help them meet all their goals. but it is a fact that we are all just individual people. yes, we are making a difference by giving money, yes we are helping these people get food and water and other daily necessities, but we are just individuals. in a just world, this would be a duty shouldered by global powers, but every institution seems to have turned its back on Palestine.

i don't really have a point to make here. just a scream into the void amongst a million others, all crying out about the unfairness and evil of the world.
