"But through it all the heart bleeds and breaks."

Mahira Khan has made a statement on social media describing her feelings towards the current situation in Palestine.

Posting on X, Mahira wrote:

“Nothing feels good. And I understand life goes on, it has to.

“We resume work and worry about our child’s exams, our mother’s health, or our own. But through it all the heart bleeds and breaks.

“May Allah have mercy on Palestine. On their hearts, their children, their lives.”

Many people replied to Mahira’s post, agreeing that they felt the same, and prayed for the people of Palestine.

In October 2023, Mahira was accused of not using her platform to speak about the conflict.

She had posted a statement which showed support for the people who were suffering and shared that she felt hurt for those who had lost their homes, family and livelihood.

However, Mahira was accused of staying silent on the matter and one troll claimed it was because of her future Hollywood contracts.

Mahira did not take the accusation quietly and responded to the troll:

“I call it loud and clear. Sit down. Use your time to pray for Palestine.”

Alongside Mahira Khan, many stars have raised their voices about the atrocities happening in Palestine and have shared their thoughts on social media.

Ushna Shah spoke about an attack that took place in a hospital and wrote:

“A hospital! What do we boycott? Where do we strike? What do we do? Someone tell me what to do!

“All I can do currently is pray and cry to my Lord, hold my dear ones close and write on this platform. Someone tell us what to do, where to begin.”

Osman Khalid Butt stated: “There must be an immediate ceasefire. Allow humanitarian aid to reach Gaza.

“Is the blood of thousands of innocent Palestinians not enough? Please raise your voices!”

Armeena Khan has also been vocal on Instagram and recently shared an emotional video as she spoke of what premature babies were dealing with.

Armeena had said: “That news about premature babies just wrecked me.

“My whole life has been turned upside down. It’s like I woke up one morning and started living my worst nightmare.

“I try to make the best of both days and help where I can but I’m beginning to lose hope in humanity. No money, land or power is worth this. Why is this so hard to understand?

“I am extremely triggered today because my baby was premature. I cannot make any sense of this. I was sitting in the doctor’s surgery when I read this piece of news and believe me when I say I bawled like a little child.

“I pray for these babies, please God protect them. Please bring some miracle. Please help these innocent people.”
