Rabia / Raaba / R4bia

 What is Rabia/Raaba/R4bia ???
Seeing this word many times on facebook?
Have you seen the yellow and black colored four fingered hand sign on social media recently and want to know that what is it?
Why people are posting about it on internet?
Why are the making this sign their display?

Let me tell you! Actually Raaba/Rabia or R4BIA is four in arabic, and this hand sign by raising 4 fingers has become the symbol of the massacre in Egypt as well as Rabaa al-Adawiya Square where the anti-coup protests take place.



 
Rabia means four in Arabic and it's the symbol of the incident of Egypt Massacre. More than 181 people were killed last Friday in mass rallies staged by Morsi supporters in several Egyptian cities to protest Wednesday's violent dispersal of their two main protest sites Cairo's Rabaa al-Adawiya and Giza's Nahda squares on Wednesday.
The Health Ministry said that at least 638 people had been killed in nationwide violence since Wednesday, including 288 in Rabaa and 87 in Nahda.
#R4BIA| “Rabaa sign” done by raising four fingers has become the symbol of the massacre in Egypt and Rabaa al-Adawiya Square where the anti-coup protests take place. 

“Rabaa” meaning four or the fourth in Arabic has become the sign of anti-coup protests in Egypt. Just a few hours before the massacre on August 14, anti-coup protesters in Egypt tried to voice their demands to the world by raising their four fingers. Erdogan (Prime minister of Turkey) showed solidarity with Muslim brotherhood by showing 4 fingers. Muslims from all over the word embraced this symbol for the protest of killings of Muslims in the world.
You can show your support and solidarity with Egypt's Muslims by replacing your current display picture with RABIA SIGN picture >>>


And change your covers of facebook too with this picture <<< to show that you are with Egypt & to show Muslims unity in the world..


May Allah the Almighty help them and save them from this
massacre....Ameen
