Thread 🧵: Remembering the Tanomah/Sadwan Massacre of 1923
Today, we remember a painful chapter in our shared history: the **Tanomah/Sadwan massacre of 1923**, where hundreds of Zaidi Shia civilians—women, children, and elders—were slaughtered by Ikhwan militias in the Asir region. This tragedy, rooted in sectarianism and political ambition, left scars that echo through generations.
History reminds us that division and hatred have always brought suffering. The blood of our ancestors—Sunni, Shia, Arab, and non-Arab—was spilled not for faith, but for power. Today, as Arabs and Muslims, we face a choice: repeat the cycles of the past or build a future rooted in compassion, justice, and unity.
Let this story be a lesson, not a weapon. Our strength lies in embracing our diversity as *ummah wahidah* (one nation), not erasing it. To my fellow Arabs: let us heal by acknowledging pain, reject the politics of division, and work tirelessly to unite our nations. The road to progress begins with empathy. 🤍 #history #ummah #unity #peace #islamichistory
