    Wow. Here’s how Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein of the Chabad of Poway Synagogue responded to the Christchurch masjid attacks in N.Z. The world should take notes from the Rabbi. Humanity would be better for it. And no doubt Christchurch stands w/ Poway. Picture courtesy: .

    “Tikkun olam.” It’s a Jewish concept that translates to “heal a fractured world.” Let’s embody the spirit of this beautiful idea in the aftermath of the Poway synagogue shooting, on the last day of Passover. We have the ability to counter hate w/ love. It’s up to us. Let’s do it.

    The hate & violence that drives anti-Semitism is the same kind of hate & violence that drives anti-Christian sentiment. The same kind of hate that drives these two also drives Islamophobia. The hate crime at the Chabad of Poway synagogue is another somber reminder of this truth.

    "Divide & conquer." It's the oldest trick in the history book. Pittsburgh, Poway, Sri Lanka, Christchurch, I could go on. Hateful forces are trying to drive a wedge between us. Don't let it happen. Embrace our common humanity. Love your neighbor. Seek knowledge. Live in peace.

    Despite the acts of violence at synagogues (Pittsburgh & Poway), churches (Sri Lanka), & masjids (Christchurch), there is a truth that emerges: Jews, Christians, & Muslims will unite to support & defend one another no matter the circumstance. Light will drive out the darkness.

    Oh dear God. There has been another act of violence at a place of worship, this time at Chabad of Poway synagogue in San Diego, CA. Today is the last day of Passover. There are multiple injuries after a shooting. One man detained. Situation is developing according to reports.

    Sure, Islam isn't a race, but this tragedy reminds us of how Islamophobia plays out as a form of racism. I wrote an entire paper on the racialization of the Islamic faith & how that plays out in terms of hate crimes. Find it here:

    Recep Uyar of Yesil Masjid (or Green Mosque) in Busra, Turkey has gone viral for his stunningly beautiful recitation of adhan, the Islamic call to prayer, in five different “makams,” or scales. I hope to meet & listen to him in person one day. Inshallah.

    Good lord! Amnesty International reports that at least 1,600 civilians were killed in Raqqa, Syria in 2017 by the U.S. led coalition. CIVILIANS! These indiscriminate attacks are war crimes & crimes against humanity. Who will be held accountable? Anyone?

    This is a big victory for the BDS movement & freedom of speech as outlined in the 1st Amendment of the Constitution. U.S. citizens should never be required to pledge loyalty to a colonizing force that is engaging in ethnic cleansing. Not today, not ever.

    Meet Omar Ibn Said, a writer & Muslim scholar from Senegal who was forced into slavery in the U.S. around 1807. His autobiography, written in Arabic, is now located in the Library of Congress. What a priceless treasure. A remarkable story of perseverance!

    This is breathtakingly beautiful. Watch the Imam of the Green Masjid in Bursa, Turkey teach the five melodies of the Adhan, the Islamic call to prayer. You don’t need to be Muslim to be moved by these sounds. It makes me say Alhamdulilah, or “praise God.”

    American Zionist hardliners, as notes, oppose the peace process, dismiss Palestinian rights, erase Palestinian history, & defend Israel's actions as "ordained by God" & "divine will." This is fanaticism on fully display. What could go wrong?

    Netanyahu: “Hi Don, can we [**illegally**] annex the Golan Heights?” Trump: “No.” Netanyahu: “What if we named a [**illegal**] village after you?” Trump: “Deal. Go for it.” I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s how it all went down. Shameful, either way.

    Prophet Muhammad commanded the protection of places of worship, particularly churches. He even invited the Christians of Najran to pray in his mosque in Medina. Important reminders for Muslims, Christians, & humanity at large. My latest take for .

    Sri Lanka's State Defense Minister says that the Easter Sunday church bombings were retaliation for the Christchurch massacre at two mosques. This tit-for-tat extremism is a losing strategy. It'll only fuel more violence. Remember, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

    Prophet Muhammad had good relations w/ most Christians he knew, notes . Indeed, as the Qur'an (5:82) explains: "... you will find that the nearest to [Muslims] in love are those who say 'We are Christians.'" Cole offers critical historical insight.

    Prophet Muhammad offered Christians protection from persecution in his Constitution of Medina & The Covenants, as notes. Hasan also mentions the Marrakesh Declaration that protects the rights of religious minorities in Muslim-majority nations.

    “I protect [Christians], wherever they may be, on land/sea, in East/West, in North/South. They’re under my protection... against all harm” (Prophet Muhammad). Attacks on Christians by National Tawheed Jamath (Sri Lanka) are an abomination to Muhammad. It’s like comparing 🍎&🍊’s.

    “If the Christians seek the help & assistance of the Muslims in order to repair their churches... they, [the Muslims], must help & support them.” Prophet Muhammad’s Covenants w/ Christians = the polar opposite of what the National Tawheed Jamath did. More:
