The blueprint for a harmonious life lies in submission to divine guidance.

Reminds us of the beautiful hierarchy of obedience: First Allah, then His Messenger (PBUH), and those entrusted with authority among us. May we always find the strength to follow the right path. 🤲✨

The US fights for Venezuelan oil while China moves to clean power. Elites protect dirty deals, not people. Corruption and greed block real progress. Energy policy should serve lives, not cronies. #EnergyPolitics #Corruption #ClimateJustice #NoToNepotism

Foreign coups & sanctions don’t build democracy—they build ruins.
Venezuela starved. Cuba choked. Pakistan destabilized.
Western capitals declare "mission accomplished" and leave nations shattered for decades.

Telling a man crushed by Rs11m debt to “stay strong” is not empathy, it’s cruelty. Mental health is not advice, it’s access. When the state fails, sermons become violence.

Imran Khan’s jailing is not justice. It is power protecting itself. Courts were used as weapons, votes were ignored, and dissent was crushed. This is how elites steal democracy and punish anyone who challenges them.

The Dominican Republic wastes clean solar power, then buys costly fossil energy instead. Regulators allow fossil plants to break rules, while the public pays the bill. This is mismanagement serving old interests, not people or climate.
#Renewables #EnergyCorruption #ClimateJustice #PublicMoney
Wasting renewable energy comes at a high cost for the Dominican Republic
By operating thermal plants above their limits and maintaining a grid with insufficient storage capacity, the DR wastes part of its clean energy and generates multimillion-dollar losses.

“How many times, then, will Western journalists allow themselves to be fooled by Israeli propaganda – by military denials that later collapse under the weight of evidence?”

I have spent the past two years debating the credibility of the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers with supporters of Israel. It turns out the Israeli military agrees with me, not them.
