Jordan's King Abdullah II met Thursday with Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani in Aqaba, after al-Shaibani's meeting with his counterpart Ayman Safadi.

The king reaffirmed Amman's support for Syria's security, stability and territorial sovereignty and rejected Israeli attacks on Syrian territory.

I'm looking for recommendations, it doesn't matter if it's in Arabic or English I read both.

I like political, philosophical, historical and psychology/sociology books.

First thing is your recommendations, what do you suggest I read?

The second thing I want to ask is where you get your books? (In Damascus only)

I have been buying from Qantara bookstore for a while now, I like them very much and their collection is immaculate but I'm looking to expand my sources of publishers or bookstores.

Shoot away your suggestions, thanks in advance.

Explain your pov

After that he kinda dissapeared as an artist but it was just announced he will make a comeback in the same competition next year. I hope you enjoy and wish him luck!

Lebanese officials were furious, claiming the city erased Gibran’s identity. Yet there was a time when Arab immigrants in the US thought ‘we were all Syrians’

The problem for the dignitaries demanding the change is that Gibran never thought of himself as Lebanese. Though he was born in Mount Lebanon, he has always called himself Syrian.
This could not be more explicit. In January 1929, for example, 200 guests in evening dress filled a ballroom at the Hotel McAlpin in New York to honor Gibran’s 25 years of work. The community’s English-language magazine, The Syrian World, ran the story under the headline: “Syrians Show Pride in Writer Who Has Brought Honor to Race”.

The paperwork tells the same story. When he first landed at Ellis Island in 1895, traveling under his mother’s name, he was recorded as “Jubran Rhamé”, nationality: Syrian. In 1902 he returned as “Gibran K Gibran”, Syrian again in 1910 as “Kahlel Gebian”, nationality: “Turkey, Syrian”. Never once Lebanese, because Lebanon, as a state, did not yet exist.

Hello, anyone knows if the decision issued by damascus criminal court on 11/08/2026 judging al assad in abstentia is already published ? Or where i can find it ? Or can anyone share it ? For academic purpose.

تلقيت هيالرسالة من وزارة الاوقاف للتو هدا عادي؟

On October 21, 2024 - i.e. One month and 6 days before the launch of the "Deterring The Aggression" Blitzkrieg that liberated Syria in 11 days from Assad's tyranny, Russia announced the death of a navy captain serving near the Mount of Nabi Yunis in Latakia, the same exact summit was targeted in October 16 by HTS artillery command who confirmed hitting their unnamed targets. But this underreported news headline (it was absent from international and even local attention) proves further - with the advantage of hindsight - the presence of many overlooked harbingers in retrospect for nearing the end and collapse of the Assad's rule and rebels' conquest.

Worth noting: The summit of Nabi Yunis contains one of the most vital military bases for the Assad's army and houses the fourth most important Russian command center; yet an elite force of the "Red Headbands" of the Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham had carried out a successful, swift infiltration operation on the base back in 2022 in retaliation for the Russian violation of the ceasefire when they bombed civilian areas in Idlib a couple of weeks earlier to the HTS response operation.

Hey guys, does anybody here know of two villages called "masernayse" and "jelwaya" near Damascus? To my knowledge these villages would have been mostly or part assyrian. I might have spelt those wrong. Thanks in advance.

hi guys next week I will visit Damascus for one day I have to go Beirut from Amman during the way I decited to visit Damascus even just for a day. the issue is hotels are extremely expensive. especially in the old town regular hotels are beginning from 100 usd up to 300 usd. what do you suggest about this problem. btw I’m a Turk and I can’t speak Arabic .

best regards

أطلال مدينة وقلعة أثرية قديمة تقع قرب مسكنة على ضفاف الفرات قرب منطقة منبج - ريف حلب ويبرز برجها البيزنطي كشاهد رئيسي ما زال قائماً.

كانت نقطة استراتيجية على طريق التجارة بين البحر المتوسط وبلاد الرافدين، ومرفأ سوريا على الفرات ومحطة عسكرية حدودية. خلفت مدينة إيمار الأقدم التي دُمرت حوالي 1187 ق.م.

الاسم الآرامي: بيت بالا و الروماني/البيزنطي: بارباليسوس و الإسلامي: بالس

في العصر الروماني كانت مدينة و قاعدة لفرقة الفرسان الدلماطية. اشتهرت بمعركة بارباليسوس عام 253 م، في العصر البيزنطي أعاد الإمبراطور جستنيان بناء أسوارها منتصف القرن السادس.

الفتح الإسلامي (حوالي 637 م) كان سلماً لقوات حبيب بن مسلمة. وأصبحت تابعة للأمراء الأمويين مثل مسلمة بن عبد الملك الذي حفر أنهاراً للري ورمم الأسوار وبقيت مركزاً تجارياً وزراعياً. هُجرت في القرن الرابع عشر، ودُمرت أجزاء منها بالغزو المغولي. و غمرت مياه السد معظم المدينة البيزنطية والإسلامية، وبقيت أجزاء مرتفعة منها

The ruins of an ancient city and citadel are located near Maskanah, on the banks of the Euphrates River, in the vicinity of Manbij—in the countryside of Aleppo. Its Byzantine-era tower remains standing as a prominent landmark.

The site served as a strategic point along the trade route connecting the Mediterranean to Mesopotamia, acting as a Syrian port on the Euphrates and a frontier military outpost. It succeeded the older city of Emar, which was destroyed around 1187 BC.

Aramaic name was "Bayt Bala." - in Roman and Byzantine periods was "Barbalissos," and following Islamic conquest, it became "Balis."

In the Roman era, it functioned as a city and a base for a Dalmatian cavalry unit. It gained historical significance due to the Battle of Barbalissos in 253 AD. During Byzantine period, in mid-6th century, Emperor Justinian oversaw the reconstruction of its fortifications.

the Islamic conquest (circa 637 AD): the city was entered peacefully by leader Habib ibn Maslama. And came under the patronage of Umayyad princes—most notably Maslama ibn Abd al-Malik, who commissioned the construction of irrigation canals and restored the city's walls—ensuring its role as a commercial and agricultural hub. The city was abandoned in the 14th century, after suffering destruction by Mongol invasions. Today, the waters of the dam have submerged the majority of the Byzantine and Islamic city, leaving only the higher-elevated sections visible.

A photograph of the commemorative wreath that the German Emperor Wilhelm II placed on the tomb of Sultan Saladin—located in the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus—as a tribute during his visit to Levant in 1898.

It was later sadly removed and given to the the Briton T. E. Lawrence. Lawrence, in turn, presented the wreath to the Imperial War Museum in London, England.

The inscription on the front of the wreath reads:

“This wreath was presented by His Majesty, the Emperor of Germany, Wilhelm II, in memory of his pilgrimage to the tomb of Saladin.”

It also bears the dedication:

“From one great Emperor to another.”

On the front, a Quranic verse (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:13) is cited:

“Indeed, God loves those who do good.”

maybe we get it back one day from England to put it back were it belongs

صورة لإكليل الزهور التذكاري الذي وضعه الإمبراطور الألماني فيلهلم الثاني على ضريح السلطان صلاح الدين الأيوبي -الموجود في الجامع الأموي بدمشق - كبادرة تقدير خلال زيارته لبلاد الشام عام 1898.

وقد أُزيل الإكليل لاحقاً -للأسف- وسُلِّم إلى البريطاني "تي إي لورنس" (لورنس العرب)، الذي قام بدوره بإهدائه إلى المتحف الحربي الإمبراطوري في لندن بإنجلترا.

نُقش على واجهة الإكليل العبارة التالية:

«قدَّم هذا الإكليل جلالة إمبراطور ألمانيا، فيلهلم الثاني، تخليداً لزيارته لضريح صلاح الدين»

كما يحمل الإهداء التالي:

«من إمبراطور عظيم إلى إمبراطور عظيم آخر»

وُضعت على واجهته أيضاً آية قرآنية كريمة (من سورة المائدة، الآية 13):

«إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ»

ان شالله بيسترجع من إنجلترا لمكانه الأصلي

Fell for a girl from Aleppo, shout out to Aleppo

Anywho, went to her dad, who is a university teacher, to ask for her hand, ma man was like, ehhh you know, cultural differences and what not, and I told him true, and we need to know each other more and what not

He said her mom wants her nearby, and I said cool ain't got no issue with that, Aleppo is a nice place to live at

It was a cool encounter, I could tell dude was nervous, no one asked his daughter hand in marriage before, Ik cuz she told, but I digress

Her mom on the other hand, once he told her that I came to him and etc, he liked me, started talking positive.

She went insane, started saying how people from my area are savages, and that we ain't up to standards, she told her daughter that she is protecting her, now mind you, me, her daughter, and everyone can see she layin, she just don't like people like me, and she kept on it til her dad finally rejected me, in a text, idk I might be sensitive but I thought, if it was told to me face to face, way better then a call or a text, I guess he didn't have the heart, and thought I was good enough.

Look, I'm not against the mom, and I know my people ain't that bad, but would that be enough of a reason to reject someone without getting to know them first? My parents were happy btw, my mom loves her and loves talking to her, she is a joy as she describes her.

Honestly, I'm not marrying anyone else, and idk what the next steps are, when to talk to him again, and wither I grt my parents involved this time.

Cuz they said next time we should talk to them and finalize the whole thing, which strikes fear in me, that if they didn't get along, I might never be with her, and she fears it too.

Idk, guess I need as much help as I can get
