Our sleeping pattern plays a great role in our ability to function effectively during the day. The hours after Fajr are among the most blessed of the day.

Starting the day off by praying the morning salah gives you Barakah and sets you in the right frame of mind. It allows you to be the best you can be throughout the day.

However, in order to rise in the early hours it is imperative to sleep early as your body requires an adequate amount of rest.

Saj Issa, “Americana Hammam” Series

The artist is interested in late capitalism and its violence, and how brand intervention in societal spaces has contributed to the cultural erasure of diasporic communities.

Issa’s recent work continues her abiding interest in pattern. The Americana Hammam series consists of wall based two-dimensional works that feature silkscreened and hand painted patterns on ceramic tiles with corporate logos on the surface.

The blue patterns are appropriated from traditional vessels and tiles from countries including Turkey, Palestine, and China while the logos are iconic brands well familiar to a global audience. The artist chooses the brands—Nike, Caterpillar, Chase, Coca Cola—for their lax corporate policies around global warming and climate change, thus exposing to viewers how we are all implicated in this crisis.

Issa grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, near Ferguson, where the Black Lives Matter movement sparked, and made summer visits to her grandparents’ home in the West Bank of Ramallah, Palestine. “I love these two communities immensely,” Issa said. “Growing up between those places, it’s impossible not to make the connections of injustice and for my art to not be expressive of those two homes.”

While visiting Palestine a few years ago, Issa recalled driving around the West Bank, noticing new street signs. She realized the signposts customarily written in Hebrew, Arabic, and English featured the names of towns as they would be identified in Israel. For Issa, reinserting the descriptions on signs or painting native vegetation in occupied Palestinian territories is a way of preserving language, land, and culture.

“The signs in this work, similarly to the negation of Palestinian villages, after so long of rewriting or unsolicited decisions made on behalf of our societies, influences the memory of our heritage,” she said.

I'm really bad at the flags of countries. I'm not colorblind, but I've messed up the flags for Turkey and Pakistan, I've messed up the flags for Cuba and Puerto Rico...

...If Mexico didn't have an eagle on theirs I'd mistake it for Italy

(Please don't ask me about Nicaragua, Argentina, and El Salvador - or the time I said out loud "oh Argentina is a horizontal Guatemala with a sun" and my Argentinean teacher looked so disappointed)

#random personal note #I'm also really bad at faces and pattern recognition in general #that's why I mistake turkey and pakistan I'm like they have the islamic crescent/star but then I can't remember the color

Yusuf al-Kaysani - digital portrait ~

(08/2022)

it's been a lil over 2 years since I watched The Old Guard and became completely and utterly obsessed with the story and characters but can you believe in that entire time I haven't done a single full fanart of Joe?!?!? I thought it was about time I rectified that situation lol

I was inspired by the intricate geometric patterns seen in a lot of Islamic art, which I wanted to reflect the importance of Joe's faith & culture (which I hope people can get a sense of with this piece...)

#artists on tumblr #the old guard #the old guard fanart #yusuf al kaysani #joe the old guard #digital art #drawing #portait #tog fanart #marwan kenzari #the old guard art #geometric pattern #digital portrait #fanart #i had originally planned to draw joe w/ his 2old2guard hair (aka long) but wasnt sure it'd look right here #just wanna say i tried SO hard to get the geometric design to look like the islamic ones i'd researched #but it was SO DIFFICULT and i kinda gave up and went with my own kinda thing eventually... hopefully it still looks alright tho!

The text is written in the script known as "eastern kufic" with some elements in naskh (cursive) and is lavishly illuminated with designs of foliate scrolls and geometric interlace.”

Muslim Invasion - The writing is on the wall

History tells us that Muslims follow a similar pattern when they emigrate from their countries of origin in Dar al-Islam (the Islamic world) to infidel lands such as those in the West.

First, a fairly small number go to the U.K. and establish a presence, a beachhead or colony if you will. Because they are small in number, they take pains not to cause trouble or attract attention.

Over time, as their numbers grow and an Islamic diaspora is formed, they begin making relatively modest demands, such as the serving of halal foods, the provision of special times/places for daily prayer, and so on.

As their numbers trend into the double-digits as a percentage of the population, Muslims begin becoming more assertive, even aggressive, in their demands. In the vernacular, they start flexing their muscles demographically. Muslims-only areas near major cities begin to form, and within them, sharia law is enacted and enforced by “sharia patrols” and the like.

It is around this time that attacks upon infidels ~ especially infidel women and children ~ begin to ramp up, both in duration and intensity. Mobs of Muslim youths begin setting fire to cars en mass, vandalizing churches and synagogues, or committing acts of rape and other forms of assault. Officials pass these acts off as more-or-less random acts of crime, but in reality, they are the beginnings of a campaign of jihad.

As the Islamic presence grows further, their increasing numbers embolden the trouble-makers, who begin to wage acts of low-intensity warfare upon surrounding society.

We see this in places like Sweden, where police stations have had to fortify themselves against small arms fire and grenade attacks. Or in the Islamic ghettos outside of Paris, France ~ which are so violent and dangerous that emergency fire and medical personnel will only enter with an armed escort.

By this time, the Muslims are quite open about their control of certain sectors of major cities. When several hundred of them decide it is time for prayer and roll out their prayer mat en-mass and pray towards Mecca, there isn’t a whole lot the authorities can do about it, even though the “migrants” have closed down a major traffic thoroughfare in the process!

These are signs of domination, of rule over the kafir or infidel. And the Muslims know it… just as they also know they are doing as their prophet commanded.

The tipping point into generalized civil unrest occurs somewhere in between this stage and the time during which the believers attain numbers sufficient to allow them to wage irregular warfare against others whom they deem targets.

Using such events in Africa as a guide, this can occur with 20-30% of the population being Muslim, sometimes more, depending on local circumstances and other variables. If the government is pro-Muslim, as it was in the Sudan during the 1990s Darfur crisis, serious trouble can erupt quite early on.

Of course, no civilized person wishes for any of this mayhem, chaos, or violence to occur, but ordinary people often have no say in the matter and therefore must take prudent steps to protect themselves and their loved ones.
