FIGHTING ZIONIST OPPRESSION MUST FOR ALL MUSLIM-IMAM KHAMENEI

In order for us to properly confront and oppose injustice, we must understand the three types of injustice. The Arabic word “Dhulm” is sometimes translated as “injustice” and sometimes as “oppression”; though both of these translations do not possess the ability to adequately describe what Dhulm really is. In order to truly light up the darkness, we must recognise and eradicate Dhulm at 3 levels.

What is Dhulm (Oppression) Muharram 2019 Sheikh Salim Yusufali

Although the Indian government and army never stopped oppression on the Kashmiri Muslims, yet the recent wave of bullying, torturing, and pressure exerted on the Muslim majority occupied Kashmir is unprecedented. Here is a short report highlighting the Kashmir issue.

Palestine is the most important issue facing the world today. The issue of Palestine isn\'t a mere land dispute, rather it is the mass expulsion of an entire nation of people from their own country. Yet, there are two other tragedies that were forced upon by the Palestinian people by the Zio-Imperial global forces. What are they? What makes Palestine an unprecedented and historic case of oppression? Finally, always remember that Palestine will be free from the river to the sea, but only if you wake up and do something about it. The Leader of the Muslim Ummah, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei speaks.

The second half of the video has Persian lyrics. Here is a related and very insightful excerpt from Shaheed Baqir Sadr's book THE AWAITED SAVIOR: The Mahdi is not only an embodiment of the Islamic belief but he is also the symbol of an aspiration cherished by mankind irrespective of its divergent religious doctrines. He is also the crystallization of an instructive inspiration through which all people, regardless of their religious affiliations, have learned to await a day when a heavenly mission, with all its implications, will achieve their final goal and the tiring march of humanity across history will culminate satisfactorily in peace and tranquillity....... The religion, when it endorses this common consciousness and stresses that in the long run this world will be filled with justice and equity after having been filled with injustice and oppression, gives it a factual value and converts it into a definite belief in the future course of humanity. This belief is not merely a source of consolation, but it is also a source of virtue and strength. It is a source of virtue because the belief in the Mahdi means the total elimination of injustice and oppression prevailing in the world. It is a source of inexhaustible strength because it provides hope which enables man to resist frustration, howsoever, hopeless and dismal the circumstances may be. The belief in the appointed day proves that it is possible for the forces of justice to face the world filled with injustice and oppression, to prevail upon the forces of injustice and to reconstruct the world order. After all prevalence of injustice, howsoever dominant and extensive it may become, is an abnormal state and must in the long run be eliminated. The prospect of its elimination after reaching its climax, infuses a great hope in every persecuted individual and every oppressed nation that it is still possible to change the state of affairs. -- http://www.al-islam.org/awaited/index.htm

Friends, let this not come as a surprise to you. This is the reality we are living in where it is ‘estimated that one billion people in the world suffer from hunger and malnutrition. That’s roughly 100 times as many as those who actually die from these causes each year. About 24,000 people die every day from hunger or hunger related causes… Three-fourths of the deaths are children under the age of five.’ --HOW YOU CAN HELP -- Don’t waste natural resources. Be thankful to God for His gifts and blessings. Be mindful of your responsibility toward other human beings. Think about what the Prophet (saws) would do. Have mercy and compassion toward all humankind. Next time you spend money on those unnecessary luxuries of your life, think for a moment about the plight of the poor and oppressed around the world. Be aware of the materialistic forces and the contradictions of the dominant economic systems that are at the roots of global inequality. Don’t become a part of this system. Don’t become a slave of consumerism and endless materialistic competition. Understand that it is not enough to just keep yourself from engaging in consumerism. It's not always easy to protect yourself and your family against the multi-billion dollar industry of marketing. Join forces with other like-minded people. Strengthen your communities that can serve as a buffer against corporations. Engage in collective action. Transform people's consciousness and hyper-consumeristic lifestyles. Among other things, join a local organization that is working against subtle forms of oppression, like hunger, poverty, illiteracy, domestic violence, anorexia and bulimia, perfect body images, and endless materialistic competition. If there isn’t any, start one today! For ideas, you can look into doing online activism. Check out moveon.org’s work. Some online organizations also invite web surfers to click on their sites regularly. They say every click earns them revenue to support their causes. The Hunger Site is an example. Some may also invite you to buy their T-shirts and other souvenirs. I guess, you can buy these items if you think they can help spread the word and encourage people to join a good cause. But, in general, more shopping and more consumption cannot be a solution to human suffering. Selling consumers to products through clicks or ads is exactly what we need to shun. Because that feeds into the same loop of consumerism. My suggestion: Donate directly! And, encourage others to do the same! Lastly, remember the advice Imam Ali gave in his Last Will: “My advice to you is to be conscious of Allah and steadfast in your religion. Do not yearn for the world, and do not be seduced by it. Do not resent anything you have missed in it. Proclaim the truth; work for the next world. Oppose the oppressor and support the oppressed.” Become a friend and supporter of oppressed people and an enemy of oppressors and all forms of oppression."

It was in February 2011 when thousands of Bahrainis most of them from the country's Shia majority took to the streets to demand political reform. The Bahraini government reacted to the protests with a mixture of violent repression, and offers of limited concessions. More than seven months later this time in New York City and on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Bahrainis and their supporters gather to call on the government of Hamed Bin Khalifa to end its brutal oppression against its people. While the gathering is a humble one, the demonstrator's voices are loud and clear, they're calling for a free Bahrain for all. The demonstrators stand united in front of the Bahraini mission where the Kingdom's ambassador to the UN is rumored to be having lunch with King Khalifa, the ruler of Bahrain. While the ill treatment of the Shia population has made headlines around the world since protests erupted, for many demonstrators here the rally is about upholding core human values, regardless of religious affiliations. Hussain Abdullah, Director of the advocacy group Americans for Democracy & Human Rights in Bahrain says the majority of the population are living under state oppression and the government needs to know that the voices of reason will not remain silent. With posters and banners in hand and the Bahraini flag raised in the air the demonstrators hope gatherings like these big or small will garner the attention and support of the international community.

Christianity Under Question! | Imam Khomeini (R) The impression today\'s Christianity has painted in people\'s mind is that Christianity is all about LOVE, AFFECTION, and CARE etc. Yet, while we see millions of people subjected to oppression and cruelty, we find Christian authorities and scholars to be quiet! Is it not ironic? Where is that love and passion for the needy and the oppressed? Where is your support for the dying kids of Yemen; where is your support for the innocent Palestinians; where is your support for all the oppressed people of the world who are waiting for your love, affection, and care! What would Jesus do to stop the oppression?! #Christmas #Xmas #Christianity #Christians #Pope #Jesus #QUESTION!

Some people propose that Islam teaches us to be humble and soft even against the oppressors and tyrants. They say, we should only pray for their guidance and not resist at all! Others say that we need to resist against the oppressors but within a threshold that does not risk our material assets - our lives, our families, our wealth, our professional career, our social status and our lives of comfort. WHAT DOES ISLAM TEACH US? Imam Ruhollah Khomeini (R) highlights that throughout history, whoever rose up for the establishment of justice and Islamic government, faced the repercussions. And we have no complaints! There is and has always been a price that the true believers paid for standing up against the system of oppression. Rest assured, if you are being effective in fighting the system of oppression, sooner or later you will have to pay the price! This is how the divine movement has continued and been kept alive. #MustWatch #RealityCheck #Islam #OurIdeology #IslamicMovement

The Story of Stuff will take you on a provocative tour of the consumer-driven culture in the US and the increasing consumerism and materialism in the rest of the world - from resource extraction to iPod incineration - exposing the real costs of our use-it and lose-it approach to stuff. -- ISLAM is against materialism because it results in social injustice and oppression. But also because Islam wants to nurture the inner spirituality and other potential noble qualities in human beings - and materialism - that is the slavery of this world - takes them in exactly the opposite direction. Often non-religious movements choose to resist materialism because of its consequences on society - that is they resist materialism for instrumental - means to ends - reasons. Islam however places importance on simplicity and modesty because they are valuable in themselves for human perfection. Hence even if the world becomes full of resources and everyone has more than what he or she needs Islam would still stress on simplicity and modesty in the lifestyles and pursuits of its followers. With its ideals of human perfection and emphasis on the eternal life in the hereafter Islam provides a powerful rational and emotional stimulus for individuals to abstain from materialism and channel their self-interest into attaining lofty human ideals and qualities.
