Abdullah Alhemaidy Poet Haibun

Land Of Canaan

(And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his tent before the city.) Genesis 33: 18.
Who is Jacob?
Jacob is son of Isaac; brother of Esau; father of the twelve patriarchs of Israel. 
Land of Canaan means Palestine which belongs to Canaanites not Israelites. So clear in Torah. 
 
Palestinians  
Real owner of that land
Jacob came to them.

Arthur Vaso April 13, 2026 at 12:44 AM Well said, well explained Abdullah! Abdullah Alhemaidy April 13, 2026 at 5:13 AM Thank you very much!

Ghairo Daniels April 12, 2026 at 5:33 PM Aah, AA ~ in the final analysis EVERYTHING belongs to God. And EVERYTHING is one thing. Nothing belongs to humans. It is only our minds which says this belongs to me or us or them ~ greed is a vice....Prayers to all lands. Hugs, GD. Abdullah Alhemaidy April 13, 2026 at 5:21 AM Yes everything belongs to Allah. But, not everything is one thing. Your actions, poetry and word belong to you not to every one nor to others. However, me, you, and others belong to Allah. I knew it seems kind of paradox. Allah is the Real Owner. He Gives us freedom of choice to do good or to do evil. Therefor, man is responsible for whatever he or she could do/say, whatsoever he/she chooses. No room to explain more.
