		<description>Assalamu Alaikum Healy,

I&#039;m not sure as to why you would provide a comment like you have posted, but what you have written is not helping. The person who wrote the article is not showing a lack of respect for the problems going on in Gaza. He acknowledges that much in his opening statement.  This person seems to want to shed light on the plight in Gaza but all over the muslim world which is in itself is a tragedy.

His going to Gaza with his compatriots is not going to resolve any issues. Our problem as muslims is that we have not united. Regardless of our socio-political issues with one another, we are all brothers and sisters in this deen, but because we have so many people pulling us apart with their different Fatawas, etc., our people have been become helpless.

Allah ta&#039;ala says in the Qur&#039;an: And hold fast, all of you together, to the rope of Allah (i.e. this Qur&#039;an), and be not divided among yourselves, and remember Allah&#039;s favour on you, for you were enemies one to another but He joined your hearts together, so that, by His Grace, you became brethren (in Islamic Faith), and you were on the brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus Allah makes His Ayats clear to you, that you may be guided. (3:103)

It is for Muslims to understand that Allah created us to serve Him and no other. We are not to give our service to ideologies, schools of thought, or any &quot;isms.&quot; We, as Muslims, have inherited the earth so that we may band together, unified, to establish Al-Islam on earth.

&quot;To those who inherit the earth in succession to its (previous) possessors, is it not a guiding (lesson) that, if We so willed, We would punish them (too) for their sins, and seal up their hearts so that they could not hear?&quot; [7:100]

Followers of Muhammad, do we realize that if we do not learn from those who went astray when they separated into sects, Allah may remove us from the earth and replace us with a people who will do as He commands?

we are not Sunni, Shia, black, white, arab, pakistani, or anything else before we are Muslim. So why do we allow Ash-Shaytan to come between us and service to Allah? we, as Muslims, have inherited the earth so that we may establish Peace. Why? Because:

&quot;Ye are the best of People evolved for mankind. Enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong, and believing in Allah. If only the People of the Book had faith, it were best for them; among them are some who have faith, but most of them are perverted transgressors.&quot; [3:110]

Do not fall for the deception as the People of the Book did. For your own salvation and for the pleasure of Allah, unite! Recognize your differences, but do not allow them to cause enmity and hatred between you.

&quot;Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting all that is good, enjoining what is right, and forbidding what is wrong: they are ones to attain felicity.&quot; [3:104]

These are the partisans of Allah (Hizbollah).

Are YOU one of them?

		<description>Wow this guy is complaining about not being able to bring a few bags into the west bank. Why did your doctors even stay there if they didn&#039;t have the right instruments. Why dont you guys become real men and go to gaza and see whats going on there, and actually do something instead of including it in your atricle with just one sentence in the begining</description>
