There are no words to describe the cruelty of hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza who have been relentlessly bombed and displaced for almost 2 years now STARVING to death en masse. Almost half a million murdered by bombs, the rest being murdered by withholding bread? Gross

"If a destitute person were to perish while living among the wealthy, all would share responsibility and incur the gravest of sins. God would hold them accountable and bring them to reckoning." — Al-Juwaynī (d. 478/1085) No further words can be said. We are all complicit.
