In western superstition and mythology when the 13th day of the month on the Gregorian calendar falls on a Friday it is considered a bad luck day.
In Islam there is no such thing as luck, be it good or bad.
Actions determine outcomes.
Those who partake in righteous conduct can expect positive outcomes, insha’Allah, and vice versa.
But being that sectarians fall outside the Islamic ideological and theological paradigm, it is no wonder that they considered the past Friday to be a day of bad luck—the day their toxic sectarian narrative had run out of luck.
These sectarian-cum-pro-zionist Muslims are characterized by obsessing about non-core theological matters.
They have a pre-fabricated elasticized configuration of what constitutes politically correct aqidah.
For these sectarian-cum-pro-zionist Muslim types, other Muslims who do not share their politically correct aqidah must be denigrated, excommunicated from the House of Islam and designated enemy number one.
Read that again!
In recent years such denigration, excommunication from the House of Islam and being designated enemy number one was reserved for the Shi‘is.
But not any type of Shi‘i.
Shi‘is have existed throughout Muslim history after the Prophet (pbuh) passed on.
Yet denigration, excommunication from the House of Islam and being designated enemy number one was never mainstreamed and normalized as had been the case following the Islamic revolution in Iran led by Imam Khomeini.
It was reserved particularly for those Shi‘is from Iran who were inspired by Imam Khomeini to follow the revolutionary spirit of Islam as exemplified by Allah’s final Prophet and those in his footsteps.
In contemporary times, the Pahlavi regime in pre-Islamic revolution in Iran was Shi‘i. Throughout its reign, the Pahlavi regime was in a bosom buddy relationship with US imperialism and Israeli zionism.
Yet is was never denigrated, excommunicated from the House of Islam and designated enemy number one.
Going a step further than the Pahlavi regime is the Aliyev regime in Azerbaijan.
Not only is the latter Shi‘i, but it is also a communist regime.
But because it serves US imperialism and Israeli zionism like no other, it too was never denigrated, excommunicated from the House of Islam and designated enemy number one.
In 1979, after the Islamic revolution led by Imam Khomeini and his Islamic leadership, Iran severed ties with US imperialism and Israeli zionism.
Hence it was denigrated, excommunicated from the House of Islam and designated enemy number one.
That effort was led primarily by the Bani Sa‘ud, the number one lackey of US imperialism and Israeli zionism.
According to this Bani Sa‘ud elasticized configuration of what constitutes politically correct aqidah, Shi‘is from Iran who were inspired by Imam Khomeini to follow the revolutionary spirit of Islam as exemplified by Allah’s final Prophet and those in his footsteps are worse than imperialists and zionists.
This narrative was bank rolled by hundreds of millions of petrodollars and dominated sermons as well as Muslim media within the Saudi orbit.
Notwithstanding Islamic Iran’s moral and material support for the Palestinian struggle against zionism a well as for all oppressed people, it was denigrated, excommunicated from the House of Islam and designated enemy number one.
Outlandish claims regarding Islamic Iran being an ally of the US and Israel were peddled.
Such propaganda went to the extent of emphatically stating that all tension between Iran and Israel constituted smoke and mirrors.
Despite enduring 46 years of hot and cold hybrid warfare, the Muslims from Islamic Iran have now gone a step further and done what no one else has dared to do.
On Friday the 13th 2025, Islamic Iran responded militarily to zionist warfare; albeit not for the first time.
A previous military response on April 13, 2024 to zionist war mongering and provocation was more measured.
Now, the sectarian-cum-pro-zionist Muslim types have become deafeningly silent.
One would expect that the war between Islamic Iran and zionist Israel would at least be a cause for these sectarian-cum-pro-zionist Muslim types to reconsider their error.
Rather than make amends and support the war effort of the Muslims in Iran against zionist aggression, they have now resorted to distract Muslims with trivia such as youth programs, political party statements and other nonsensical pursuits in order to buy time to perpetuate their sectarian-cum-pro-zionist narrative.
It is not Allah’s will [O you who deny His power] to abandon the committed Muslims to your way of life; and to that end He will set apart the malevolent from the benevolent… (The Ascendant Qur’an, Surat Aal Imran, verse 179).
