@merenator: Inshallah. Alhamdulillah. Habibi. We’ve been saying the same things in different languages all along. 🩵🌐✨ This week, Michigan elected the first Muslim U.S. senator in history, and the hate he faced to get there is a reminder of how badly we need more bridges. And can we talk about names? His full name is Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed (ahb-dur-rah-MAHN moh-HAH-med el-SAY-id). Abdulrahman means "servant of the Most Merciful." He goes by Abdul El-Sayed (ahb-DOOL el-SAY-id). And New York's mayor is Zohran Kwame Mamdani (zoh-RAHN KWAH-may mam-DAH-nee), with an M before the D. If we can learn to say Schwarzenegger and Galifianakis, we can learn these. Trying matters. ✨ I was raised Christian, I’m an omnist today, and I’ve been welcomed into Muslim homes from Beirut 🇱🇧 to Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 to Marrakech 🇲🇦 like family. Travel taught me that the farther I go, the more alike we look 🥹 Sending all my love to my Muslim friends around the world 🌎 Enjoy this week y’all. A huge win for democracy and the matriarchy 💪💪🏻💪🏼💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿 #Interfaith #EndIslamophobia #LoveThyNeighbor #abdulelsayed #midterms2026
