Comrades Marathon – Muslim Women Participants, A Shame & A Disgrace To The Sahaabiyaat & The Ummah!!!

[Part 1]

We have been notified of the comrades marathon that had Muslim runners, and in particular, Muslim females. It is indeed terrible, shameless, sad and unfortunate!

In this brief article, we are highlighting to you and to every Muslim male and female runner at the comrades marathon of the following:

  1. Big calls are made to join marches and other similar Haraam events to voice our protest against Israel and its genocide to Gaza.
  2. Certain companies are named to boycott due to their supporting Israel and the genocide perpetrated in Gaza. These companies support Israel financially, or in any other way.
  3. Among the companies everyone knows that supports the genocide is COCA COLA.
  4. And COCA COLA is among the sponsors of the comrades marathon!
  5. O Muslim comrades participant brother/sister! Your running supported Israel!
  6. O Muslim sister! How did your running dressed in immodest attire which challenges the Laws of Hijaab and the Aayaat of the Qur’an Majeed, amidst lewdly dressed Kuffaar men, help the Gazans who on a daily basis RUN from pillar to post, not for a comrades marathon, but to protect themselves from an Israeli bomb probably financed through the companies supporting them?

If you think this much is bad and it can’t get worse, as a Muslim sister or brother who ran this Haraam marathon, or any Muslim who ‘congratulated’ and ‘supported’ such unfortunate Muslim souls, read on to see something worse than this…

In the list of sponsors, is a Haraam, upsetting and drunken name called ‘CASTLE LITE’. Yes! You have read it correctly! A Haraam liquor company is among those who sponsor this event…

If you think we misspelled or are not reading right, please check it up yourself (and do notify us immediately if we have erred!) by viewing the following link:

Now tell us, O Muslim sister, brother and well-wisher to any of the Muslim runners, did we do right by running and supporting the comrades marathon?
