1. On Justice (ʿAdl)The Qur’an says: “Stand firmly for justice, even against yourselves.” But in Gaza, justice lies buried beneath rubble, Its voice drowned by drones and hunger.

Fathers walk the streets, empty pockets, heavy hearts— Prayer fills their hands. Thirsty wells stand dry, but rivers of milk and dates flow in memory. Cats roam shattered streets, seeking crumbs beside the poor— Mercy feeds them, too. A nurse bends her head, wrapping wounds with whispered duʿā— healing beyond...
