Salamou Alaikom everyone,

This morning on the news, they announced there was a devastating fire at a hotel in central Paris. Where 15 people died, and around 50 injured.


They said "Many victims were African immigrants waiting to be re-housed. A number of children are said to be among the dead".

My heart sank, i thought Oh no, are they moroccans or algerians, their poor famillies. Allah(SWT) have mercy on their souls.

When you lo hear things happen, do you feel sadness. esp when its magraba???

It is terrible and I feel for those poor people,but I don't think it is Moroccan and Algerians in this case,as we are always referred to as North African,not African in English press and when I read the french press this am they said 'd'origine africaine' and not 'maghrebine'.
Either way I definitely felt sadness and now I face problems at work as many of my tour grps are supposed to be visiting the area and I have to revise their itineraries now...so i'm out for now
