Casa Árabe"Retornado 67": cartografía de memorias del Golán sirioCasa Árabe presenta en su sede de Madrid este proyecto creativo de resistencia de la mano de Iyas Shahin y Wesam Al Asali, confundadores de IWLab.
En 1967, el ejército israelí desplazó a muchos sirios de sus aldeas en los Altos del Golán, obligándoles a buscar refugio en ciudades como Damasco y Homs. Hoy, la mayoría de los que fueron expulsados tienen más de 60 años, pero mantienen vivos sus recuerdos sobre sus pueblos a través de notas, textos y conversaciones.

Casa Árabe“Returnee 67”: Mapping the Memories of the Syrian Golan (ARABIC)Casa Árabe presents this creative resistance project at its headquarters in Madrid, led by Iyas Shahin and Wesam Al Asali, co-founders of IWLab.
In 1967, the Israeli army displaced many Syrians from their villages in the Golan Heights, compelling them to seek refuge in cities like Damascus and Homs. Today, most of those who were dispaled are over 60 years old, yet they keep their memories about their villages alive through notes, texts, and conversations.
"Returnee 67" is a project that presents a collective narrative through a map, reconnecting us with the bui...2024-10-021h 13

It's unfortunate that the category was tarnished by WeWork founder Adam Neumann, whose fortune is dwarfed only by the lack of ethics displayed in building it. But it doesn't need to be so.An alternative would be to start to consciously build workspaces not only based on a pound per square foot and the distance to the nearest Waitrose, but rather on the basis of the communities in which they're located, and how they can best serve and integrate with those communities.That's very...2023-09-0750 min

Dari Iyas bin Abdullah bin Abu Dzubab Radhiallahu ‘anhu beliau berkata, Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda,
وعن إِياس بنِ عبدِ اللَّه بنِ أبي ذُباب رضي اللَّه عنه قال : قال رسولُ اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم: « لاَ تَضْربُوا إِمَاءَ اللَّهِ » فَجاءَ عُمَرُ رضي اللَّه عنه إلى رسول اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم، فَقَالَ : ذَئِرْنَ النِّساءُ عَلَى أَزْواجهنَّ ، فَرَخَّصَ في ضَرْبهِنَّ فَأَطاف بِآلِ رسولِ اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم نِساءٌ كَثِيرٌ يَشْكونَ أَزْواجهُنَّ ، فقال رسول اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم : « لَقَدْ أَطَافَ بآلِ بَيْت مُحمَّدٍ نِساءٌ كَثيرِ يشْكُونَ أَزْوَاجَهُنَّ لَيْسَ أُولِئك بخيارِكُمْ » رواه أبو داود بإسنادٍ صحيح .
"Janganlah kalian memukul hamba-hamba wanita Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala, Lalu datanglah Umar kepada Rasulullah dan berkata, "Kini para istri telah berani kepada suami-suami mereka." Maka beliau pun memberikan keringanan untuk memukul mereka. Akibatnya banyak wanita yang datang mengerumuni keluarga Rasulullah ﷺ untuk mengadukan perihal suami-suami mereka. Maka Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda, "Sungguh, sekelompok wanita telah mengerumuni keluarga Muhammad untuk mengadukan suami-suami mereka. Suami-suami yang seperti itu bu-kanlah orang yang paling baik di antara kalian." (HR. Abu Dawud, dengan sanad yang shahih)
