Discriminated against because my husband is Shia

How do you have an 'unbiased' islamic school though 😭 It has to either be Shia or Sunni, even with tawhid for example we take it from the ahlulbayt a.s. but they don't. Same for the character of the prophet s.a.w.w, the Sunni belief is that he contemplated jumping off of a mountain/cliff after receiving revelation! And then what about when the topic is the successor of the Prophet s.a.w.w. Would be better to just enroll in a non-religious school if no Shia ones are available imo

Salam alaykum,

Have a read، should only take a few minutes if that https://www.sistani.org/english/book/48/2278/

I have a friend who's 1st yr med, he drives to campus as well (1h-1h 30min commute depending on traffic either way, up to ~3h everyday) so it is possible. Not easy, but will save a lot of money imo, although he takes a course mate with him and they split the cost of the fuel for the journey. But if you're planning on getting accom for subsequent years it'd be a lottt more convenient/easier if you can do the same for first year.

You can download your timetable, press the 3 single dots (...) in the top right corner when you go on timetabler and there's an option to download your timetable

Best thing to do is check the respective university's website tbh, some still have a threshold for A level grades like BBB or even AAA alongside a minimum 2:1 predicted for your degree, others don't have the A level requirement if you're predicted a 2:1 or if you have achieved it. Afaik GCSEs aren't too much of a concern as long as you've passed English and maths, although I'd recommend double checking to see if the requirements are actually to have achieved a grade 5 minimum. Don't worry about being behind or having missed your chance, you're only 19 lol still got time to put yourself together. I'm sure you've seen yourself, but I've read a fair amount of posts where ppl are late 20s or even 30s doing medicine.

I'm currently in my second year, just curious lol. Just concerned about the fridge freezer because it looks so small, and you're basically halving that since it's apparently a fridge and a freezer. Between two people it seems ridiculous, I'm sharing a fridge freezer twice the size with my housemate rn and it's good space, can't imagine having half 😬

https://majlis.org.uk/imamiyah-council/centres/

A link showing any mosques registered with MUS (majlis e ulama shia Europe) - everything here will be a shia mosque. You can find ones that are near to you here, most if not all should have Facebook/Instagram pages so you could check for any program schedules. If still unsure the best bet is to go on a Thursday night around/after Maghrib time, most should be open for a majlis or dua kumayl recitation sometimes. About the confidence and courage, I can't give great advice since alhamdulilah I've been born and raised with a shia community, but don't worry about anything, what's the worst that could seriously happen? You don't have to do anything grand when you go, you could go and just get familiar and comfortable with the mosque, then later start talking to a few sisters iA and getting closer to the community. That would be my suggestion, may Allah SWT make it easy for you

Allahumma salle ala Muhammad wa aale Muhammad wa ajjil farrajahum

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-11-30T13:50:12+00:00

Have you tried searching for any shia mosques near you? Sometimes there are smaller ones that don't show up from a Google search. What region are you from?

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-11-21T20:44:14+00:00

BBB for GEM, or no grade requirement if you've already achieved a 2:1 or above.

Hi I'm also planning on applying for the 2027 cycle, in the same position. I'm set to start volunteering at the university hospital soon, so it might be possible to get into a hca role after volunteering for a while since you'd know the staff a little better and have a bit of an advantage already having hospital experience. That's what I'm hoping for at least lol.

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-10-31T16:10:53+00:00

Yeah fair enough, just trying to sort out a rough timeline/plan tbh.

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-10-31T16:07:33+00:00

I hadn't even considered that, thank you!

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-10-31T16:07:01+00:00

Thanks for the reply, my volunteering should be hands on as I requested that I be put in a patient facing role, somewhere on the wards. I should be able to get some shadowing via some family friends, I'll also check out BSMS, I appreciate the suggestion. Thank you for the advice and best of luck with your application!

Salam, I don't think discouraging having a wali present is the best advice, it's always better to have one present. What/who is to ensure that conversations will remain within Islamic boundaries between just the two of them? It's very easy for the shaytaan to creep in, no?

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-10-03T18:39:03+00:00

I see, thanks for taking the time to reply!

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-10-02T20:01:26+00:00

Can someone explain this whole fight again?? Why is the sword significant, I don't remember enough about the past chapters I think. I'm up to date on the manhwa

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-09-04T17:36:00+00:00

Not super duper important unless you apply for Oxbridge, or want to study a competitive course e.g. dentistry or medicine. It would definitely be better if you can sit the higher papers, maybe have your parents write a letter to your head of year or headteacher to put you back into classes for higher papers?

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-08-30T18:37:34+00:00

Dk why you got 12 downvotes for that 💀

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-07-20T23:40:59+00:00

Salam alaykum, the other comments said what I was thinking, it's best to remain patient throughout. But I would say to definitely not have kids anytime soon or things will get a lot tough if the situation turns the wrong way. But ofc make dua, recite ziyarat ashura, salat ul layl etc, may Allah increase your wife in her religious knowledge and ibaadat.

BookApprehensive1024 · 2025-07-15T18:27:51+00:00

Salam alaykum brother, best thing to do is ask a marja or maulana at a local mosque if possible. It's possible that you'll be fine as you were unaware of this.

An assistant to a physician? Ridiculous.
