3 mosques demolished in 5 days in India

"And who are more unjust than those who prevent the name of Allah from being mentioned in His mosques and strive toward their destruction? It is not for them to enter them except in fear. For them in this world is disgrace, and they will have in the Hereafter a great punishment." (Quran 2:114)

Stand Up for Religious Freedom in India

The demolition of mosques is not simply a local zoning issue or a bureaucratic dispute. For many communities, these sacred spaces are centers of worship, education, charity, and communal life. As reports of mosque demolitions continue to emerge across India, the trend raises serious concerns about religious freedom, equal treatment under the law, and the protection of minority rights.

The loss of a mosque is not only the loss of a building—it is the loss of a piece of a community's history, identity, and spiritual heritage. Justice For All's Save India From Fascism campaign is working to document abuses, educate policymakers, engage the media, and amplify the voices of those affected by religious discrimination. But this work depends on dedicated volunteers.

Whether you can help with research, writing, social media, outreach, event planning, or advocacy, your skills can make a difference. Join us in defending religious freedom, protecting vulnerable communities, and ensuring that these injustices do not go unnoticed.

By the Numbers: Thailand deported 40 Uyghur to China

Justice For All’s Save Uyghur Campaign strongly condemns the death sentences handed down on June 11, 2026, by a Thai court against Uyghur men Bilal Mohammad and Yusuf Mieraili in connection with the 2015 Erawan Shrine bombing in Bangkok. While we express our deepest sympathy for the victims and families affected by this horrific attack, we are extremely concerned by the serious due process concerns that have surrounded this case for more than a decade.

Justice For All Urges Congressional Action on Gaza Genocide and West Bank Violence During Meeting with Rep. Glenn Ivey's Office.

Justice For All met with the office of Congressman Glenn Ivey (MD-04) to discuss the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and escalating violence in the occupied West Bank.

During the meeting, we shared concerns regarding civilian casualties, restrictions on humanitarian aid, destruction of healthcare infrastructure and the growing body of evidence presented by international human rights organizations, genocide scholars and Israeli human rights groups regarding Israel's conduct in Gaza.

We urged Congressman Ivey to support H.R. 3045, the West Bank Violence Prevention Act, and H.R. 3565, legislation that would limit the transfer of U.S. defense articles and services to Israel. We also emphasized Congress's responsibility to ensure that U.S. military assistance complies with American law and international humanitarian standards.

Record Crowds Fill Streets in Pakistan-Administered Kashmir

By the Numbers: 5 million Kashmiri refugees and their descendants (dating back to the 1947 partition) live across Pakistan

Why Are People Protesting?

A major source of controversy ahead of the July 27 legislative assembly elections in Pakistan-administered Kashmir is the allocation of 12 assembly seats to refugees from Indian-administered Kashmir who currently reside elsewhere in Pakistan. These reserved seats account for nearly one-quarter of the legislature and cannot be contested by residents living within Pakistan-administered Kashmir.

The arrangement was originally established to ensure that displaced Kashmiris who left Indian-administered Kashmir and settled in Pakistan retained a voice in the territory's governance while awaiting a resolution to the decades-long Kashmir dispute. Critics, however, argue that the system disproportionately limits the political representation of people who currently live in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, fueling growing public dissatisfaction and protests.

UN urges world not to forget Rohingya refugees as aid cuts threaten vital support

By the Numbers: 150,000 new arrivals since 2024

UNHCR spokesperson Babar Baloch warned that sharp reductions in humanitarian and development funding are putting essential services at risk for one of the world’s largest refugee populations. Last month, the United Nations and its partners, working alongside the Government of Bangladesh, launched an appeal for $710.5 million to meet the most urgent needs of Rohingya refugees and host communities in 2026. Despite increasing needs, the appeal is 26 per cent lower than last year’s funding request, reflecting what aid agencies describe as a “hyper-prioritised” response focused on the most critical needs. As prospects for repatriation diminish, more Rohingya are resorting to dangerous sea journeys in search of opportunities elsewhere in the region. Read for more.

Justice For All Brings Message of Compassion and Social Justice to Boston

Justice For All's UN Programs Director, Imam Saffet Catovic, spent the weekend engaging with two communities in the Boston area, delivering the Friday khutbah and speaking at evening gatherings in partnership with EnjoinGood.

Attendees warmly welcomed the discussions, which centered on faith, social justice, and our shared responsibility to stand with marginalized communities. Many expressed appreciation for the timely and thoughtful message. One attendee was particularly moved by Imam Saffet's reflections on indigenous peoples and their ongoing struggles. She shared that the discussion resonated deeply with her own Native American heritage, helping her connect the broader themes of justice and solidarity to her family's history and lived experience.

The weekend served as a meaningful reminder that conversations about justice have the power to build understanding, foster empathy, and strengthen bonds across diverse communities.
