Muslims from all walks of life today gathered at Uhuru Park for a tree planting event organized by Voices for Palestine,in solidarity with the people of Palestine.
The event, which also extended to Central Park, saw the planting of 10,000 trees symbolizing the remembrance of the ongoing suffering of Palestinians since November 2, 1917 the date associated with the beginning of their displacement following the Balfour Declaration.
Speaking during the event at Uhuru Park in Nairobi, Sheikh Badru Jaffar a member of Jamia Mosque Nairobi said the tree planting served as both an act of environmental responsibility and a moral statement against the continued oppression and loss of lives in Palestine.
“This is more than just planting trees , this is a global call for justice,” said Sheikh Badru.
The event was also part of a broader environmental initiative to restore Nairobi’s green spaces while raising awareness of global humanitarian crises.
Voices for Palestine reminded Kenyans the need to conitune with the boycott of the 98 products and brands that continue to support the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
“Every penny you spend on products that support the Zionist entity goes directly to funding the war of genocide in gaza,” read a message on the boycott list. “ We can’t say, what will a boycott do? Or will the money I spend really make a difference? Everything makes a difference.”
In September this year, thousands of Kenyans joined the Voices For Palestine peaceful march from Adams Mosque along Ngong road Nairobi to Uhuru Park, demanding justice and raising awareness on the ongoing genocide in Palestine by the Israeli military.
In July this year, Voices for Palestine launched a nationwide tree-planting campaign to raise funds for Palestinians facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis.
Dubbed “Plant a Tree, Save a Life,” the campaign seeks to provide urgent humanitarian assistance to Palestinians, while simultaneously contributing to the Government of Kenya’s climate and reforestation agenda led by President William Ruto.
According to UNICEF, at least 61,000 children have reportedly been killed or maimed since October 2023, one child every 17 minutes, and that many have been traumatized, orphaned and displaced multiple times.
Israel has killed more than 68,000 people in Gaza in more than two years of attacks since October 2023.
A ceasefire between Israel and Hamas was reached on Oct. 10, based on a 20-point peace plan proposed by US President Donald Trump. Israel, however, has violated the truce multiple times.
