"...it didn’t take long for Adel to get news that Egyptian authorities intended to send SWAT teams to London, and Adel was on their list of targets.
“With his knowledge of the state’s systemic abuse of power and close work with rights organisations, Adel needed to be silenced."
In this sixth instalment of A Boy Named Justice — an Islam21c-CAGE International project, penned by our veteran contributor Zimarina Sarwar — we join Shaykh Adel Abdul Bary and his young family in Britain, with the tentacles of Egypt's security services threatening to take him out.

Israel has vowed to continue its assault on Rafah despite condemnation of an airstrike that martyred over 50 Palestinians.
Gaza's Ministry of Health has reported that hundreds more were injured in the barbaric attack on the refugee camp.
Decapitated babies and young children have been found with limbs blown off, whilst women have been burnt alive.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has delivered a landmark ruling, ordering Israel to immediately halt its military offensive in Rafah.
This historic decision came in response to a South African application accusing Israel of escalating genocide against Palestinians.
Judge Nawaf Salam emphasised the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, urging Israel to stop actions causing the destruction of the Palestinian people. The court also demanded unimpeded access for UN bodies investigating these allegations and the unhindered provision of humanitarian aid.
Despite this, Israel has shamelessly rejected the ruling, continuing its offensive in Rafah. However, this decision by the ICJ is a significant step in the fight for justice and accountability.
The world is now watching Israel more closely than ever. Will its relentless belligerence and defiance of international justice lead to its downfall?
In a welcome, albeit considerably belated, development, three European states have confirmed their intention to formally recognise the State of Palestine on 28 May.
While mere recognition of the Palestinian state is a pitifully low moral bar, it is nonetheless welcome news whenever more and more states defy the racist dehumanisation of Palestinians.

Ireland, Norway, and Spain have confirmed they will recognise Palestine as an independent state on Tuesday 28th May.
It is a welcome step to level the narratives' playing field between Palestine and the Zionist state, but why only now?
Reports have emerged that Al-powered bots are being deployed amidst the Gaza genocide to push pro-Israeli narratives online.
These bots swarm social media, creating comments that seem human but are actually Al-generated.
Zionists are having an absolute meltdown because the prosecutor at the international criminal court has finally sought arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu.
In this week's Islamic Thoughts episode, Dr Salman Butt and Dr Anas Altikriti share some thoughts.

The chief prosecutor of the ICC (International Criminal Court) has asked a panel of judges to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and his defence minister for war crimes and crimes against humanity for the genocide in Gaza, alongside three Palestinian resistance leaders.
What are your thoughts?
In condemning American "unqualified support" of the Zionist state, Major Harrison Mann's resignation has left Washington red-faced.

“Israel must be stopped”, is what an emergency hearing today at the World Court heard, arguing for emergency provisional measures to be put in place.
The Zionist entity has ignored and refused explicit and implicit rulings from the court, and is planning on completing its genocide with its offensive on Rafah, in Gaza.

“We would be together and hear the cries of the one being taken for interrogation. When he returned, we knew what to say to him, how to comfort and treat him. Because yesterday it was us, and tomorrow it will be another.”
In this fifth instalment of A Boy Named Justice — a special Islam21c-CAGE International project, written by our regular contributor Zimarina Sarwar — we look at the incredibly painful periods of detention faced by Shaykh Adel Abdul Bary.
And we hear about his experience working as a human rights lawyer at Amnesty International in New York, his trip to Britain, making Hajj, and a visit to Pakistan.

“These are my grandparents. They were raised in Lubya, a village in Palestine on a tall hill near Tiberias, with a view of the lake and the Golan Heights.”
“In 1948, they were driven from their home by Israeli forces and spent the rest of their lives in exile. Their village was emptied, and their home was demolished.”
Omar Alkhatib writes a powerful reminder of how real stories are the backbone of genuine narratives.

An investigation by the Guardian has exposed Israels use of hacking and spying to influence narratives globally.
These findings reveal that Israel employed surveillance tactics to hinder investigations into its war crimes in Gaza.
There is a primal feature of our nafs that our scholars have meticulously warned against for centuries. Recent scientific research has, as well, explained how our brains make excuses for ourselves.
In this Islamic Thought video, Dr. Salman Butt help us to understand how such mechanisms work and how Allah is testing people who are misusing the religion to not fulfil certain Islamic obligations and even trying to prevent others from doing them.

In June, Slovenia will join Sweden, Norway, Ireland, and Spain in recognising Palestine as an independent state.
A non-permanent member of the UNSC, Slovenia increased UNRWA funding when Israel lied about Hamas infiltrating the agency.
After 14-year-old Benjamin Achimeir went missing in the West Bank in April, a wide search was triggered by Israeli settlers.
Via WhatsApp, the illegal occupiers incited indiscriminate revenge attacks on Palestinians, saying "exterminate the beasts".
It has been increasingly apparent that the vast majority of chatbots — including OpenAI’s Chat GPT, Google’s Bard, and Microsoft’s Bing — are influencing narratives when it comes to the Gazan humanitarian crisis and war crimes being committed by the Zionist state.

Rishi Sunak has called a surprise general election for 4th July - that’s only 40 days away! But this election is going to be about Gaza.
We spoke to Dr. Wajid Akhter and Umer Suleman to discuss The Muslim Vote - a united movement among the UK Muslim community like never before that’s done loads of research into Muslim constituencies, and even held a national town hall where hundreds of Muslims came together from all over the UK to discuss our strategies.

In an unexpected move, on Wednesday Prime Minister Rishi Sunak called a general election for 4 July.
Labour has a possibility of winning, especially as 71% of voters hold a negative view of Sunak, according to YouGov.
But as the Gaza genocide persists, many are urging voters to simply support pro-Palestine candidates.
Who will you vote for?
Hundreds of Muslims gathered from all across the UK for one thing this weekend.

Over 170 media personalities, broadcasters, politicians, activists, and lawyers have come to the defence of the radio presenter and journalist Sangita Myska, after her “abrupt” and unexplained departure from LBC in April.
Myska has in effect been replaced by "dedicated Zionist fanatic" Vanessa Feltz.

Indian voters are engaged in the world's largest ever election, with Hindu supremacist Narendra Modi seeking a third term.
With anti-Muslim hatred on the rise, Indian Muslims are being urged to vote in hope of securing a fairer government.
US Army Major Harrison Mann has quit over "moral injury" caused by his government's inaction on the Gaza genocide.
On resigning, he said, "You're either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you're not."
"They are not students, they are now our teachers.”
Students have been all over the news in the last few weeks. Shaykh Dr. Haitham al-Haddad and other Muslim leaders urged people to support the student encampments in the US when they began and since then student protests have spread like wildfire.
We’ve seen encampments spreading across the UK and Europe, and Muslim students have been speaking with us from the ground.
Shaykh Haitham and Dr. Salman Butt discuss some of their most frequently asked questions and issues, particularly from an Islamic moral perspective.
