The recent series of brutal attacks on Palestinians by Israeli occupational forces has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation from people across the world. During the holy month of Ramadan, Israeli forces attacked worshippers inside Al-Aqsa mosque, which has become a routine occurrence.
According to Al Jazeera, the Arab League has scheduled an emergency meeting to discuss the Israeli police raid on the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, which resulted in the injury of at least 12 Palestinians. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed that he is working towards maintaining the status quo at the holy site.
Numerous individuals, including celebrities like Bella Hadid, Usman Mukhtar, Saba Qamar, and Syra Yousuf, took to their social media platforms to speak out against these atrocities. Bella Hadid expressed her concerns through her Insta Stories, stating that this is not about religion or hating one another on the internet, but about a government system using their own people and others as political pawns. She emphasized the importance of using one’s moral compass as a human being with a human heart to understand what is wrong and right.
Actor Saba Qamar expressed her thoughts on the situation by taking to Twitter. In her tweet, she quoted a verse from the Quran that reads, “And never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do” (14:42) and urged her followers to keep the people of Palestine, Kashmir, and all those who are oppressed in their prayers.
