وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ“And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.” (Az-Zumar 39:7) Let them talk about greater goods and collective benefits.

There is a moment in every struggle when the weight of injustice becomes unbearable, when the oppressed, long silenced and subjugated, rise with whatever strength they can muster.

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا“Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear…”(Al-Baqarah: 286) Now it’s over. We’ve come to the end, and we’re heading back home.
