I have studied Islam. I'm a history student, I've read much of the Quran as well as studied various Muslim figures throughout the ages. I'm against extremism of any kind, like you seem to be on a surface level, which is ironic because you seem to be a pretty extremist zionist once you actually talk.

I'm not a Muslim actually. I'm mixed black, indigenous, and ethnic Jewish. I'm just a historian, who in her time of need was turned away by churches and synagogues but welcomed by mosques. They never tried to convert me. They just helped me.

And it's just a historical fact that many Muslim people helped Jews escaping and hiding from Nazis, especially in Morocco, Tunisia, Turkiye, Iran, and Albania(which ended ww2 with more Jews than it began with). The Grand Mufti was a minority figure who didn't represent all Muslims.

Oh and btw the Quran specifically speaks against the whole world being Muslim. "If God had willed, He would have made you one community, but He willed otherwise in order to test you in what He has given you" and "There is no compulsion in religion" mean exactly what they say.

Oh so you just don't know anything about Islam. Got it. According to the Quran, Jews are People of the Book, and are regarded differently than various pagan peoples. The Quran even says that Jews and Christians who keep faith in God and do good deeds will be rewarded the same as Muslims.

Mist on the ground and blue sky above. Witley in the Surrey Hills last week. #Scape #Treescape #Trees #ForestFriday #Mist #Landscape #Photography
A mystical feel to the woods in Witley last week. When I set off by car it had been sunny but as I reached lower ground it became very misty and I made a diversion to walk through these misty woods.

A dirt path cuts through a temperate rain forest. Sword ferns and moss-covered evergreens on both sides of the trail. A cedar tree is in the center of the frame.

Photo of a great many conifer trees in a forest. Only the straight, vertical trunks of the trees in the foreground are visible, but green from the pine needles of trees further back can be seen. The closest tree has an almost orange colour to its bark - the rest appear almost monochrome. The forest floor is dead bracken.

It was misty up in the forest yesterday. #Hiking #Photography #EastCoastKin #ForestFriday #Forest #Trees #Woodland #Woods #Scape #Fog #Ireland Looking across a leafy hiking path through a forest blanketed in mist. The sun struggling up over the hill beyond the forest.

I love how the little huckleberry bush and the tiny ferns at the base of the tree managed to catch the sun rays. It was their moment to shine 💛 I hope you all have the day you wish for. Be safe and be well 🩵✌️ #trees #nature #forest

Has nothing to do with Trump. Crime rates nationwide have been dropping for over a decade, anyone who watches more than fox news would know that. The narrative that the US was lawless before Trump is just more lies but keep sucking the senile felon's dick.

Today I walked the eucalypts of Sphinx Rock, ripping the lantana vine from some very nice forest. An excellent example of how nice this type of forest can be. Its our most common forest type here in Australia, and even in rainforest areas it tends to dominate the ridges and other high ground.

The ferns and the Alders keeping each other company. I’m sure the ferns often ask the trees what they can see from up there and the Alders graciously oblige giving their description of their view of the world from above 😊😆🌲 I hope you all have the day you want and need 🩵✌️ #ferns #trees #nature

Beneath a soft blue evening sky we are walking a trail along a wooded ridge crest in the golden slanting rays and long shadows of the late day sun. The forest floor is carpeted with low leafy underbrush with patches of bright green moss.

A vibrant orange display from a European Beech tree, flanked here by two more muted Beeches. Beach trees will sometimes retain their brown leaves throughout the winter but not all seem to do this.

Don't blame all of us. So many cultures worldwide venerate the natural world and work even now post colonisation to steward it. This blaming all humans for the destruction of the natural world is nothing but bullshit. Humans aren't a virus and are very capable of living with nature. We're no virus.

Walking in the forest the other evening felt like stepping into a dark fable. The mist started rolling in just as I snapped this, turning the trees into silent giants looming over the path. #photography #EastCoastKin #Wicklow #forest #moody
A vertical shot looking up a steep, rocky path in a dense pine forest. The scene is bathed in cool, moody blue and green tones as evening mist filters through the distant trees. Tall, dark tree trunks line both sides of the frame, creating a tunnel-like effect, while a single thin, broken branch leans diagonally across the foreground. The atmosphere is eerie, silent, and mysterious, evoking a sense of solitude in the deep woods.
