Two Young Ladies Smiling In The Face Of Bigotry And Stupidity .

A young Muslim woman said she “smiled in the face of bigotry” after posing for a photo in front of a group of anti-Muslim protesters in Washington, D.C. on Sunday.

Shaymaa Ismaa’eel was in town to attend a conference of the Islamic Circle of North America when she came across some protesters holding Islamophobic signs.

“I really wanted to combat their hatred with kindness, honestly,” the 24-year-old told CNN. “I wanted them to see my face and simply walking by wasn’t enough.

That’s when Ismaa’eel asked her friend to snap a photo of her posing in front of the group. The images show a smiling Ismaa’eel crouched down and flashing the peace sign while some of the protesters looked on in the background.

“My face honestly lit up when I saw them,” the woman said. “I walked up as they continued yelling their hateful speech. I asked the police officer if I could stand at the curb in front of the men. The officer said ‘no,’ and in that moment, I felt like the biggest rebel.”

Ismaa’eel also shared an image on Instagram, where, as of Wednesday, the photo has been liked over 157,000 times.

“Kindness is a mark of faith. Those who aren’t kind have no faith.” -Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)” she wrote.

اللطف هو علامة الإيمان. أولئك الذين ليسوا لطفاء ليس لديهم إيمان "الحديث

" HEEGO SHOULD READ THAT HADITH "

Ismaa’eel said she was surprised to see her photo being liked and shared across social media saying it was “refreshing to see so many people” being supportive. However, Ismaa’eel’s mother got wind of the photo and urged her to be careful.

At that moment we thought about Heego delegation from Nairobi who invited Somali politician Mr. Abdirahman Abdishakur  aka Ina Mako to Somaliland and that was the joke of the year thanks to ALLAH we have rebel like Shaymaa Ismail  in Somaliland her name is Hodan Abwaan Muuse Ali Faruur then we say let her do the job calling stupidity of those great men ....
