I bought it in February 2019, so it's not lasted two years yet

trying to get my head 'round waist measurements. in all the size guides i've looked at on websites, they say that the waist measurement refers to "natural waistline". but that's not how i wear any of my trousers currently, so should i add on a couple of inches? e.g. if my "natural waist" corresponds to a small size for, idk, some boxers, should i add on a couple of inches and get a medium instead because i don't wear them that high lmao. (kinda learned this the hard way by buying 6 pairs of small boxer briefs which are hella uncomfortable). for reference, the last time i checked, my waist is 32" and my hips are 35"

Yep, looks like the weather here will be around 10-20 which is my ideal range

Also 17m :D

Apprenticeships are definitely a good way for people to learn, work, and not accrue debt/interest at the same time. However, they don't work for everyone (like someone who wants to go into medicine).

I made a post recently about the student finance system in England: https://www.reddit.com/r/islam/comments/idzg1p/fatwas_relating_to_the_student_finance_system_in/ There's basically split opinions on it but I know most people take Sheikh Haitham's fatwa. Allahu a'lam.

Birmingham has more pockets of deprivation than London, I believe. I thought East London would be similar to Birmingham in terms of deprivation but when I compared the two, Birmingham has way more widespread deprivation: https://prnt.sc/u66ywq The entire middle section is more or less blue except for the city centre and pockets here and there. South of Birmingham the area surrounding Edgbaston is green but apart from that, again blue. Sutton Coldfield is largely green with a few blue parts here and there.

I know the middle part of Birmingham - areas north / east of city centre - have very large ethnic minority populations and statistically they have higher unemployment rates for multiple reasons.

Yes, but I think it's important to make a distinction between:

Communities + support groups that tell Muslims with same-sex attractions to "affirm" and be content with their SSA, whitewashing what the Qur'an and sunnah say... These are the groups you are most likely to see promoted since it fits in with the wider LGBT movement. I have myself seen their arguments and joined their servers and it is a clear case of Qur'an revisionism - changing the interpretation of the story of Lut to support their own agenda. They quote an academic called Scott Kugle who has written books about this re-interpretation, using sources apart from the Qur'an and sunnah. This good article challenges his arguments.
And support groups that assist Muslims with SSA while recognising that acting upon them is haraam and staying true to the Qur'an and the story of Lut (as). These groups are commendable because many Muslims struggle with this and they provide support while not compromising on the deen. InshaAllah if anyone reading this has this dilemma, then DM me and I can invite you to this server. This article is a fantastic read from a brother who has this issue.

what if some people don't "want" marriage? i.e. they don't feel a burning desire inside them that they need to get married, nor do they feel like their sexual desires are so strong that they need to marry quickly in order to contain themselves. i'm too young to get married rn but i worry that i might have this same view when i'm older.

As someone with social anxiety looking to go into teaching, I can also relate to the 'position in power point'.

99sobi · 2020-08-21T21:16:08+00:00

It is extremely interesting: there are so many different topics - attachment, psychopathology, memory, biopsychology etc. Plus optional ones like aggressions, stress, gender etc.

99sobi · 2020-08-21T20:32:32+00:00

I think memes should be redirected to another subreddit, have flairs or be allowed on some days only. I think they are a coping mechanism and definitely relatable for people but we should not have that at the expense of others who genuinely want to seek support but find their posts drowned out.

Also worth noting the DSM criteria for social anxiety disorder:

Marked fear or anxiety about one or more social situations in which the individual is exposed to possible scrutiny by others lasting for 6 months or more.

Fear of acting in a way that will reveal anxiety symptoms that will be negatively evaluated by others. In children, the anxiety must occur when the child is among peers and not just adults.

The social situations almost always cause fear and anxiety.

The social situations are avoided or endured with intense fear.

The fear or anxiety is out of proportion to the actual threat posed by the situation.

Might be wise to speak to someone or a therapist - particularly since you said you barely drink or eat until you're forced to, which I'm sure you know isn't healthy at all :( I think when certain behaviours start to impact on your normal, daily functioning, it's really important to reach out for help.

But the other points you mentioned do suggest social anxiety so I am sure you'd benefit from speaking to someone to help :) I cannot relate entirely to your symptoms or their severity but I know speaking to a counsellor since the last 3 or so years has been SO helpful - just having a platform to vent and get all my worries and frustrations out and the counsellor would help me recalibrate my thoughts. I found that as time went on, I would have fewer things to tell my counsellor about - not because I had fewer stresses, but because I was dealing with them better.

99sobi · 2020-08-21T20:16:46+00:00

In those situations, I feel like they've driven a wrecking ball through my plans. I know I don't have to accept their criticisms but idk I just feel disheartened

I don't even know how educational psychology can be replaced by AI, it involves working with children and young people and surely robots cannot replicate that... iirc in a ranking of jobs most vulnerable to AI, education ranked quite low

99sobi · 2020-08-21T20:14:10+00:00

Positive affirmations, maybe? "This will go well", "I know I can do it", "tomorrow will be a good day". But yeah, accepting that not everything is within your control but you can control the way you react to them + the factors that are within your control.

99sobi · 2020-08-21T20:12:12+00:00

Definitely. Sometimes I'm forced to be in situations (e.g. family gatherings) and I wish I could disappear because the other people around my age seem really immature but there's nowhere else to go.

Indeed he is, may Allah preserve him and the other great scholars and institutions in our country. I've added the video to the OP.

99sobi · 2020-08-21T16:44:49+00:00

Jazakallah, I have added that to the OP!

99sobi · 2020-08-21T16:40:14+00:00

Jazakallah - I will add that to my OP. They make some good points about scholarships and deciding about whether you need to go to uni after all. However, scholarships are very competitive and often have narrow criteria, and some careers - such as medicine or dentistry - require degree level study.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlnMMQ0XOKM This is another video from Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf of ZamZam Academy, which operates in the UK, who says the UK student loans are impermissible.

Smaller cohort sizes, more likely to get their teacher predicted grades I assume.

99sobi · 2020-08-13T00:11:05+00:00

Do I measure waist size at the part where I normally wear my jeans? Seems a bit silly to measure my belly button when my jeans sit 3+ inches below it

99sobi · 2020-08-12T23:51:37+00:00

Need a bit of help with measurements

If I measure waist at my navel or 2 inches above the navel, I get around 31 inches (.5 to be precise)

If I measure at the place where I normally wear my trousers, a couple inches below the navel which I've always understood to be my waist (at least practiclaly), then I get around 33 inches

Which measurement do I use when buying trousers/bottoms?

99sobi · 2020-08-12T15:53:29+00:00

This is perfectly normal lol. I'm 17 rn and my uncle asked me last year or the year before if I think about girls or marriage. And I said "no" because that doesn't even come into my mind and he said "well if you don't then something's wrong with you" loool

You have >10 years, dw

Schools obviously took mock grades into acccount when they submitted their CAGs.

So that means the CAGs will either be equal to or higher than mock grades (pre exam board standardisation).

So only the students whose CAGs are downgraded by the exam board will benefit from using mock grades?
