“Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong. When they are
presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new
evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is
extremely uncomfortable, called cognitive dissonance. And because it
is so important to protect the core belief, they will rationalize,
ignore and even deny anything that doesn't fit in with the core belief.”
― Frantz Fanon, Black Skin, White Masks

“Assist your Muslim brother, whether he be an oppressor or oppressed. "Bu how shall we do it when he is an oppressor?" inquired a companion. Muhammad replied, "Assisting an oppressor by forbidding and withholding him from oppression.”

“أيها الراكب الميمم أرضي
أقري من بعضي السلام لبعضي
إن جسمي كما علمت بأرض
وفؤادي ومالكيه بأرض
قُدر البين بيننا فافترقنا
وطوى البين عن جفوني غمضي
قد قضى الله بالفراق علينا
فعسى باجتماعنا سوف يقضي”
― عبد الرحمن الداخل
