On 1 June 2018, 20-year-old Palestinian medic Razān al-Najjār was shot and killed by occupation forces while providing medical aid during the Great March of Return protests in Gaza.
Witnesses and fellow medics said she was clearly identifiable in her white medical uniform and posed no threat when she was shot.
An investigation by the Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem concluded that an Israeli soldier aimed at and shot Razan despite her being visibly identifiable as a medic, rejecting claims by the IDF that her death was accidental.
Deliberately targeting medical personnel is a war crime.

Narrated Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said,
“Angels come to you in succession by night and day and all of them get together at the time of the Fajr and ʿAṣr prayers.
Those who have passed the night with you (or stayed with you) ascend (to the Heaven) and Allāh asks them, though He knows everything about you, well, "In what state did you leave my slaves?"
The angels reply: "When we left them they were praying and when we reached them, they were praying."
[Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 555]

💫 Sayyid al-Istighfār: The Best Prayer for Seeking Forgiveness
Narrated Shaddād ibn Aws رضي الله عنه: The Prophet (ﷺ) said "The most superior way of asking for forgiveness from Allāh is:
اللهم أنت ربي، لا إله إلا أنت ، خلقتني وأنا عبدك، وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ما استطعت أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت أبوء لك بنعمتك علي، وأبوء بذنبي، فاغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت
The Prophet (ﷺ) added. "If somebody recites it during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he will be from the people of Paradise."
[Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6306]
Transliteration: Allāhumma anta rabbī, lā ilāha illā ant, khalaqtanī wa-anā ʿabduk, wa-anā ʿalā ʿahdika wa-waʿdika mā’istaṭaʿt, aʿūdhu bika min sharri mā ṣanaʿt, abūʾu laka bi-niʿmatika ʿalayy, wa-abūʾu laka bidhanbī, fa’ighfir lī, fa-innahu lā yaghfir al-dhunūba illā ant.
Translation: O Allāh, You are my Lord, there is no God but You. You created me and I am Your servant, and I abide by Your covenant and promise (to honour it) as best as I can. I seek refuge in You from the evil that I have committed. I acknowledge Your favor upon me, and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me, for surely none can forgive sins but You.

Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه reported Allāh's Messenger ﷺ as saying that Allāh, the Exalted and Glorious, thus stated:
“I am near to the thought of My servant as he thinks about Me, and I am with him as he remembers Me. And if he remembers Me in his heart, I also remember him in My Heart, and if he remembers Me in assembly I remember him in assembly, better than his (remembrance), and if he draws near Me by the span of a palm, I draw near him by the cubit, and if he draws near Me by the cubit I draw near him by the space (covered by) two hands. And if he walks towards Me, I rush towards him.”

🚨 Ladybird Books, one of the UK’s largest book publishers for children shared an LGBT Pride post featuring a ‘Muslim’ woman wearing a hijab.
The post contained an image of a Muslim woman wearing a hijab and carrying a baby, alongside another woman, depicting them as a couple. it included the caption: "Everyone should be free to be themselves, no matter who they are or who they love."
Homosexual acts and same sex relationships are forbidden in Islam. Pride in any sin is an act of disbelief.
