If there’s one thing I want Muslims to take away from the winning of Zohran Mamdani and Abdul-Sayed is that Islam’s most compelling argument is working for the welfare of all people. Let’s get back to charity work for the sake of helping people not making our pockets fat.

Seeing @macklemore live last night was amazing the energy was insane and the way this concert centrallised Palestinian voices was incredible. I know he said he shouldnt be thanked for doing whats right but thank you Ben for using your audience to be on the right side of history🥹
