lifespassion:The Hamsa is a symbol that is used in both Judaism and Islam. In both religions it means peace, and is called the “Hand of God,” and in Judaism its the “Hand of Miriam,” and in Islam the “Hand of Fatima.” Fatima is the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad, and Miriam is the sister of Moses and Aaron.Its popular in the Middle East and in North Africa and is sometimes used as a superstitious defense against the evil eye. It should be used as symbol of peace between Jews and Muslims and hopefully we can all realise how similar we are and that we’re all human. -- source link
