Time 100: Hamada Shaquora Beats Starvation

Wartime food blogger Palestinian activist Hamada Shaquora is nominated as one of TIME’s 100 most influential personalities worldwide in 2024.

Shaquora creatively crafts recipes from the limited ingredients available through aid packages in Gaza. This is hisa name continues to trend on the social media.

“I don’t particularly feel like celebrating, at a time when me, my people and Lebanese brothers and sisters are still facing death 24/7. But i’ll take the moment to emphasize to the whole world, that we -Palestinians – are here, and will always be!” Shaqoura, who cooks meals for displaced children from his tent, said.

His videos, where he cooks and distributes meals, have garnered hundreds of thousands of followers, providing a powerful glimpse into life and resilience under relentless Israeli bombardment.

Through the siege imposed by Israel on Gaza – no food, water and electricity – he beats that by providing well-nourished meals for Gazans to stay alive.

For 2 weeks, no chicken or meat has been available.. so for Today, I made some pasta with white sauce, but unfortunately, meatless! But still, it was popular among my friends (the kids).

    Burning Muslim Civilization

    The French scientist Pierre Curie said: “If the books of Muslims had not been burned in Andalusia, we would be roaming among the galaxies today.

    He also added that: “After the fall of the Islamic Andalusian civilization, we were able to split the atom with the help of 30 scientific books written by Muslims.”

    Muslim libraries have been burned multiple times. Among them was the Library of Baghdad, which was destroyed by the Tatars and contained more than a million books, making it the largest library in human history.

    The Crusades also burned a vast number of scientific books authored by Muslim scholars. Additionally, the fall of Al-Andalus—the state of science, knowledge, technology, and civilization—marked another great loss.

    And these Zionists continue on the same path, burning books, science, technology, and civilization. They have burned trees, stones, humans, homes, and humanity itself.”
