Morocco has been able to achieve the unthinkable this World Cup.
Almost the whole world doubted their abilities
and almost no one believed in them
but coming this far and defeating some of the world's best teams
isn't the only thing that Morocco has achieved.
You see, Morocco has been able to deliver to the world
First and foremost, they taught the world to never doubt Allah
regardless of your circumstances
and in all their success, in all their achievements
and in every win they were blessed with they let the world know
They taught the world to thank Him for every blessing
and to know that it is only through Allah's support
are they capable of accomplishing anything.
So thank Him and always stay humble.
And after thanking Allah
Morocco taught us to thank and honor our parents.
In particular our mothers.
In a world that is suffering from the destructive breakdown of the family unit
and where parents are left abandoned and neglected,
Morocco came in and showed the world the true value of family,
the world was blown away by post-match celebrations
with Moroccan players honoring their parents,
this viral embrace of Achraf Hakimi took the internet by storm
and of course this playful dance of Sofiane Boufal
is playing out to be the most wholesome image of the World Cup.
Let's not forget Sofian's careful adjustment of his mother's hijab in the process.
Respect.
But above all the most compelling lesson that Morocco taught the world
is that the bond Muslim share is the most powerful uniting force on this planet.
And while this may have only just been a football game,
it was able to bring together the entire Muslim world
to stand in unison.
Morocco wasn't only being cheered by the entire African continent
but by every single Arab and Muslim Nation,
from Morocco, to Qatar, to Libya, to Syria to even Gaza.
- AlhamduliLLah, Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala with us.
All Muslims from all around the world,
all people were with us,
praying with us, they are crying, they are happy,
this is all for you.
- While Mbappe may have been carrying France,
I think it's fair to say that Morocco was carrying the Muslim Ummah.
Morocco showed the world that the bond that Muslims share is not one that is separated by borders,
flags or nationality.
Our bond is one that is tied together by a shared belief in Allah
and his Prophet Muhammad ﷺ,
a bond that is bound by belief.
And one that is thicker than blood.
As Mesut Ozil eloquently tweeted:
"Morocco's win was an achievement for the African continent
and the Muslim World.
A win that will give so many people power and hope."
Yet by far the most powerful display of this Muslim Unity
wasn't through our unified support of Morocco
but rather for a country that represents the heart of the Muslim struggle.
Palestine.
Throughout this entire World Cup
the Palestinian flag and the Palestinian cause
has taken center stage,
from the celebrations of Moroccan players, to almost every game that was played,
to the many Israeli reporters that were snubbed,
the Palestinian struggle was loud and ever-present,
I think it's clear to see that Palestine and its people were a clear hallmark of the World Cup this year.
So hold your heads up high Morocco,
you've delivered the world a powerful message
that we will never forget.
