Few things that encapsulate the Palestinian identity designed on one card in support of our brothers and sisters in Palestine as RM10 of all sales of this item will be donated directly to Gaza Emergency Relief.

Representing our Forever with Palestine design, the right part of it is the 𝙆𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙮𝙮𝙚𝙝, the Palestinian headdress with a distinctive chequered pattern worn in many parts of the Arab world. The 𝙗𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙠-𝙖𝙣𝙙-𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙩𝙚 variant, worn by Palestinians symbolize their struggle for justice, freedom and self-determination. The 𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚-𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙨 pattern represents perseverance, strength and never-ending resilience whilst the 𝙛𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙣𝙚𝙩 pattern represents Palestinian fishers and the people’s ultimate connection to the Mediterranean, and the 𝙗𝙤𝙡𝙙 pattern in the middle represents their trade routes and the rich cultural exchange that took place along these routes, as well as the importance of trade to the Palestinian economy.

Each of these patterns on the Keffiyeh represents an important aspect of Palestinian culture and history. They serve as a reminder of the rich heritage of the Palestinian people.

Next to it is the 𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙥 𝙤𝙛 𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙘 𝙋𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚 representing the geographical area associated with the region before the establishment of the state of Israel back in 1948. The map serves as a visual representation of Palestinian claims to their land and self determination.

Bottom part of it is the 𝙎𝙖𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙨𝙟𝙞𝙙 𝘼𝙡-𝘼𝙦𝙨𝙖, the compound consists of Al-Qibli Mosque (one with grey dome) and the Dome of the Rock (golden dome) and holds profound religious, cultural and political significance and importance for Palestinians. Muslims believe that it is from Al-Aqsa where the Prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven during the Night Journey (Isra' and Mi'raj). As such, it's considered one of the holiest sites in Islam after the Ka’aba in Mecca and the Prophet's Mosque in Medina.

The plant encircling the design is the humble olive tree. It roots an entire nation to a land and livelihood lost to occupation and war, while serving as a potent symbol of bold resistance as Sliman Mansour, a Palestinian painter in Jerusalem, said, “It represents the steadfastness of the Palestinian people who are able to live under difficult circumstances. In the same way that the trees can survive and have deep roots in their land so, too, do the Palestinian people.” It holds great significance in Palestinian culture and history, representing resilience, strength, and the enduring connection to the land. As Mahmoud Darwish, the celebrated Palestinian poet, said, “Olive is an evergreen tree; Olive will stay evergreen; Like a shield for the universe.”
