Mr putin also hates islamic millitancy o the core . i got latest information from israel , israel govt banned public reckless screaming as it was annoying its citizen .. positive sign ...hahaha
ALLAH says in QURAN:
Say (O Muhammad pbuh) : O Allah! Possessor of the kingdom, You give the kingdom to whom you will, and You take the kingdom from whom you will, and You endue with honour whom you will and you humiliate whom you will. In your hand is the good. Verily, you are able to do all things...
Do people think without God's will Trump or Modi came to power.. NEVER. Allah will take care if the powers are misused ... People should know the QURAN mentioned of the tyrant ruler like Pharoah and his mightiest army... and how they were destroyed when mankind was oppressed by the arrogant leaders of that time..
He takes advice from jumla man???
Another jumla baazi.. Now this is really a burnol moment.
