What is the "Israel Defence Force"? The Israel defence force is the armed forces of Israel, comprising the Israeli army, navy, and air force. The IDF was established on May 31, 1948, just two weeks after Israel’s declaration of independence. Since its creation, its guiding principles have been shaped by the country’s need to defend itself from its numerically superior neighbours. The primary element of this doctrine is the belief that Israel cannot afford to lose a single war. IDF planners believe that this goal can be attained only through a defensive strategy that utilizes the rapid mobilization of overwhelming force to take the war to the enemy.... However Palestinians call it IOF - Israel OCCUPATION Force

Why the UK needs to challenge Israel's annexation of the West Bank Once again, the Israeli authorities are demonstrating their complete disregard for international law. The UK government has condemned Israel's plans to illegally annex parts of the occupied West Bank, but it needs to urgently match fine words with effective actions: at a minimum, it should ban Israeli settlement goods from UK markets and prevent UK companies from operating in the settlements.

Troublespots in Marriage & other Relationships Life is not a bed of roses. We have been told we will be tested and tests often come in the form of relationships being hit with trouble. Sometimes the problems are perpetual and sometimes, solveable. The perpetual problems never get solved and we have to cope with them because we cannot change others. With wisdom we can try to make the best of the situation and with Allah’s favour it can improve. In the solvable problems we can reach out and try to solve the problem. We face challenging situations in life but then Allah ta’ala told us He will put us in these situations so we should recognise these tests and accept them. Accepting them makes it easier on the heart because it is not personal any more i.e. we will recognise it’s a test from Allah ta’ala and not personal hurt from someone. Tests are hard as that is what tests are otherwise, they would not be tests. With a growth mindset we can overcome them. We can choose how we deal with it. Our Deen teaches us our responsibilities and we are accountable for what we choose to do i.e. if you yell, you choose to do so. Even if he made you angry (which is natural), you can control the anger and not yell. Expressing it negatively is your choice. What we do influences others as well so we are accountable for that too. Allah ta’ala mentions in the Qur’an that he will not burden us more than what we can bear (Qur’an 2:286) and at the same time if we still mess up after having good intentions, we will still be rewarded as long as effort has been made. Allah ta’ala also mentions that He will not change the condition of people until they first change that which is in their hearts (Qur’an 13:11) so when we change the condition of our hearts, Allah ta’ala will change the condition of our situation. Allah ta’ala did not say everything will remain the same so we should not have that expectation. He is watching and seeing how His servants are going to deal with the situation He has put them in. When we accept our new reality and there is effort on our part, He will help us. Therefore, acknowledge the difficulty and your limitations. Let go of the previous reality and embrace the new one. Don’t get fixated on the Dunya and on expectations. Marriage, children, wealth, health, etc. will be according to what Allah ta’ala has destined for each of us. Remember that what is written for us WILL come to us. We have suffocated and restricted ourselves due to our expectations and setting up fake boundaries. Relationships are tests and that is why there are rules in our Deen. We are taught to be good to the creation. We have to learn to communicate better by being better listeners instead of being on the defensive. This leads to compromises and solutions.Therefore, in all circumstances, we should make effort and this is Ihsaan and we have to become الْوَاصِلُ - the secure connectors.
