Muslim women in France: if you feel in danger because of your hijab remember Islam allows you to take off your veil if it puts your life at risk!!

Musulmanes en France : si vous êtes en danger à cause de votre voile, l'islam vous permet de dévoiler si ça va sauver votre vie!!

what happened in france is horrible, depressing, and not acceptable at all. but it is situations like this that are EXACTLY what happen every single day in syria, iraq, and other war-torn areas. a similar attack happened today in beirut, lebanon that killed 50+ people. why does it take people being murdered in a first world, largely white country for anyone to care? why are syrian refugees blamed for this attack when attacks like this are precisely what they are fleeing from? i’m sending all of my love and thoughts to the people of paris and all of my friends currently studying there right now, but this isn’t an uncommon incident in many other countries of the world. humanity should be outraged at this attack, and rightfully so, but they should be JUST as outraged about the attacks occurring in war-torn countries and countries not as developed as france.

also sending my thoughts to the french muslims, people who have zero association to the attackers, who will suffer from extreme islamophobia as a result of this attack.

the only people to blame for a terrorist attack are the terrorist themselves. do not allow islamophobia to trickle into your speculation. do not turn the blame towards refugees escaping this violence. do not associate perverted extremism with a community or a religion. do not derail a tragedy to push some other agenda. you can be concerned and compassionate to all the wrong doings in the world without belittling some to promote others. bad shit happens all the time. i’m pretty sure your mind can care and learn about more than one thing. use the hashtags to stay updated and to spread the word. social media has proved once more today that it’s power and potential is awe inspiring. from the students at #Mizzou, to the victims in #Paris or #Baghdad, offer endless solidarity– be it with prayers, with donations, with retweets. any effort is valid, any thought counts. today is a day where we check our privileges and remind each other to love and to love and to love. not afraid!!
