I would say the superpower that Muslims MOST neglect is journalism. The information space is at least, if not more, important than the political, financial and military space. The world's most significant powers recognise this and invest in their media accordingly. But the Ummah has neglected this aspect and we see the devestating results all around us. Why is @5Pillarsuk the only media outlet in the world doing Islamic journalism? There should be hundreds of outlets like us disseminating information and shaping the narrative in multiple languages. But there aren't. I truly believe that unless Muslims start taking journalism as seriously as they take charitable giving or business, we will not see an uplift in the fortunes of the Ummah.

This Labour MP wants me investigated and silenced. He makes my case for me. Labour’s rebranded “Islamophobia” definition is designed to censor us. So Mr Khan, here’s my reply: Get lost.

Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.

But doesn't the Islamic intention to kill all non-Muslims worth a dog whistle ? Or has beheading of Infidels been recently dropped from the islamic agenda
Humza Yousaf@HumzaYousaf

We all know why Nick Timothy MP singles out Muslims celebrating Ramadan in Trafalgar Sq. Not because praying is domination, but because he wants to blow a rabid anti-Muslim dog whistle for political gain. He should be nowhere near politics, let alone the shadow front bench.

For the record I don't believe for a second that the Gulf nations tried to talk Trump out of going to war with Iran. I think they said this for public consumption but secretly they were encouraging him to attack because they were assured by the US and Israel that it would be quick and easy.

I'm currently in Dubai and the city feels like a ghost town. I walked through the JBR yesterday. The beach was half empty on a Thursday. That never happens. Tens of thousands of expats and tourists have left since the war started. That's not a rumor — The Guardian reported it. Hotels that were charging $600 a night are now calling you. Offering deals. Begging, basically. A travel agent friend said overseas bookings into Dubai are down 80–92%. That's the official number. On the ground it feels worse. Airlines are rerouting around UAE airspace. Emirates has suspended more routes than they've admitted publicly — ask anyone working at the airport. The malls are open but the energy is gone. Luxury brands with no customers. Restaurants half-staffed because the foreign workers are leaving too. I know 4 British families who've sent their kids home "just for a few weeks." That's what they say. But they're not bringing stuff back. The hotels are still lit up, the Burj Khalifa still glows at night. But the people aren't here anymore. And the ones who stayed are keeping one bag packed, just in case.

This was less than a year ago. Gulf leaders gave trillions of dollars to the USA. These guys are literally propping up the American economy. Don't tell me they're innocent. 5pillarsuk.com/2025/05/19/gul…

Eid Mubarak everyone. May your fasts and ibadah be accepted and your rewards multiplied, insha Allah. I special thank you to everyone who donated to 5Pillars this Ramadan. Your trust in us is humbling and very much appreciated, and I pledge to give it my all to take the fight to the forces of evil - the Islamophobes, the far right and the Zionists especially.

I live in a Christian majority country with a deep Christian heritage. The cross appears in our emblems, flag, and our state symbols. Yet for the past month, media and politicians have spoken every single day about Ramadan - and not a word about Lent. Why is that?

The stakes for the Gulf nations are huge. Aside from the unreliable American military, their only guarantee of stability is their capacity to bribe their populations into passivity. If they are unable to do that anymore due to catastrophic economic losses because of war, then they better watch their backs because their own populations will turn against them. So they are faced with two choices - go to war with Iran in the uncertain hope of destroying them or pressure the Americans they bankroll to make peace.

Here's some truth bombs for you: Iran is going for broke. It will not surrender, it will not open the Strait of Hormuz, and it will fight to the death no matter how much destruction Israel and America inflict. The people of Iran are completely behind the Islamic Republic in this holy war. I also think Russia and China will increasingly get involved in this conflict on Iran's side. Iran has the power to crash the world economy and is willing to do so. The whole world is going to suffer because Israel wants to eliminate an enemy and has used its agents in the White House to enact its plan. This may well go down as the biggest blunder an American president ever committed. I see only one solution: it's down to the American people to overthrow and imprison their treacherous president and his Zionist henchmen.
