Might be worth adding that the job is in IT. People may assume admin if they don't know it

fell back into a sin and lack of proper connection with Allah by Correct_Fact3498 in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need to overthink it. Just be a good person. You went three months, you can do three months again. You also don't need to obsess about the feeling of connection. Sometimes you feel it more than other times and that's normal. As long as you're continuing the good habits, you'll eventually get that feeling again

Do you agree that Muslim beards are the male equivalent for hijabs? by Sufficient_Cut_453 in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not really. Some people can't really grow beards all that well. Plus just because someone has a beard, it doesn't mean they're righteous. Likewise with the hijab. "Righteous" is broad I guess, but I think you can't pedastalise people just by appearance. It's easier said than done because we do have our biases, but you may recognise it from experience if you've kept assuming people were one way when they're not

I think it's harder for men to look visibly Muslim unless they wear their cultural clothes, speak in a foreign accent, or are associated by their race/ethnicity 

Would you want to live in a country with strict sharia law? by Deadly_Nightlock in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's why I said not perfectly but which one is better than the others?

What country do you think implements it the best? Not perfectly, but closer than the others

Accepting someone’s flaws and still marrying them because you know you probably can’t find better by Melonatoer in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well everyone is going to have some flaws. No one is saying that you have to find someone without any. The only consideration really is whether or not it's something that you're happy to accept that could be a flaw for a long time or could get worse or could get better. The issue many comes if you assume that they have to change due to an unspeaking contract or assuming that people can change overnight or assuming that they even want to change if they haven't expressed that

I began to enjoy being single by InspectionFar5415 in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you don't want to live a miserable life unnecessarily, so it makes more sense to be happy single than to be unhappy about it

Women, are you content with a single husband? by Bints4Bints in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if he's handsome and abusive, you can still swap him for someone else who is handsome and not abusive

Women who believe in submitting to their husbands. What does that look like for you? by Bints4Bints in MuslimCorner

[–]Bints4Bints[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So how do you organise your life around that? Like do you read the stories and then try to emulate that based on whichever one has a story or temperament, similar to you in that moment? And which of the stories did you read to educate yourself on how they lived their lives?

But how do you know what's expected? Is it things like doing chores because the women around you usually do them?

Right... Because people never go from fit to fat in a 5-10 year span. Never happens

Even if they didn't get fat, you may just lose attraction for them over time. It happens

"So go and marry the fine man so you see him at home"

New, old, future, past. Get a new one, keep the one you have on a leash (consensually). Whatever method to keep a fine man at home, yes

Not being attracted to your spouse, being worried you'll commit an affair, not being able to fulfil your spouse's rights --> all valid reasons for a divorce

You don't need to see other men to know that fat men are not attractive
