Some are calling it a Fatwa, a religious ruling that anyone anywhere can carry out. “El Faid is not to be offered repentance [to escape the punishment]. The prescribed punishment must be carried out against him, and no one, whoever he may be, is permitted to pardon him,” said Sheikh Rachid Nafi (per translation). Bring in radical Muslims, give them…

It is time to go back to the roots of our religion.” But the adoption of retrograde Islam — with religious rules for dress and other norms from the 7th century — is disappearing, led by none other than the centerpiece of the Muslim world, Saudi Arabia. In the last five…

That really had an impact in my life,” Tolentino says. “I grew up in one of the slums in metro Manila where there’s a lot of drug trafficking and prostitution. Children as early as 11 years old are already trafficking drugs. Girls as early as 15 or 16 are already working in the bars as prostitutes so that they can earn for their families.”…

By Kirollos Abdalla — At first, it was TikTok and Instagram. Then it was grifters Nick Fuentes, Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson. Can it get any worse? Aparently it can. Now people are forming their worldview and understanding of politics from… LEGOs. Yes, from Legos. A daily, high-quality AI-generated Lego short is portraying Trump as a pig, the Jews as blood-drinkers and Iran as the quintessence of righteous resistance. It’s pure propaganda, and it’s aiming for Gen Z and Gen Alpha who don’t have the time to actually read a book or do research about international relations and origins of…

By Kirollos Abdalla — An angry youth flashed a gun and demanded the pastor shut up at a recent funeral service in Detroit on March 28. “I just knew I was going to be shot,” said Pastor Darthanian Nichols of Breaking Chains Outreach Ministries. The young man in the casket was reportedly killed as a result of gang violence, and the youth who threatened him certainly seemed like a gang member. But instead of getting shot, Pastor Darthanian was able to defuse the situation and even wound up getting a dozen people saved afterwards. “I remember when I was that…

First the Syrian War brought in a flood of Islamists disguised as refugees, and the Labour Party in the UK catered to some of their radical sentiments — only to outdone by the even more Left Green Party (mirroring Zohran Mamdami new mayor of…

By Kirollos Abdalla – When Mohammad got saved in Gaza, he started loving Israelis. “You’re my man in Gaza,” Jesus told him in a dream. “Tell everyone about me.” Mohammad has been outreaching to Gaza before the war, during the war and after the war, reports Tom Doyle, who heads an outreach to Muslims. Mohammad got saved because his wife got saved. Sharin (not her real name) was in a refugee camp when Tom and his wife, JoAnn, met her. Her one ambition in life was to one day own a laptop. Tom and JoAnn got her the laptop, but…

By Kirollos Abdalla — There may be no need to send boots on the ground to ensure regime change in Iran after all. That’s because the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is now fighting themselves, as hardliners challenge the guys who want to negotiate with Trump. The speaker of the Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf — himself a hardliner who has a long history of cracking down on protesters and opposing compromise on the nuclear program — is now portraying himself as a reformist going to Pakistan to negotiate with Trump’s team during the ceasefire. Meanwhile back home, IRGC harder-liners are accusing…
