Who is “The Joshie-Man”?
It’s a name given by social media fans to Joshua Harris, a 12-year-old autistic and non-verbal Briton, who has been visiting UK mosques and distributing cakes to promote solidarity amid an increase in far-right support in the country. On a recent trip to Madinah with his father, “The Joshie-Man” turned his ‘Cake not hate’ campaign to ‘Dates not hate’ by handing out the holy city’s famous ajwa and ambar dates people in the courtyard of the Prophet’s Mosque.
Qirbah
The qirbah has been used by Saudi desert communities for generations to transport, store, and cool water, as well as preserve clarified butter and buttermilk.
