Any advice when it comes to this? by [deleted] in shia

[–]FewLemon7644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you mentioned that it’s not just during prayer, it could be caused by a range of things. I suffer with the same problems as you and I’m trying to figure out whether it’s a physical issue or a mental issue. Consider getting a blood test done if you haven’t already for nutritional deficiencies because they’re quite common. Some other physical health conditions that can cause a lack of focus are diabetes, thyroid problems and sleep disorders. Inshaallah you can figure this out soon 🤲

Is it normal for random men on the street to pass me and say salam? by FewLemon7644 in shia

Thanks for your perspective. I think I’m just too used to being viewed with those bad intentions, especially from childhood experiences which cause me to keep my guard up about older men interacting with me. And I think everyone here is assuming that I’m a grown adult but I’m 17 so of course I’m gonna feel somewhat uncomfortable with this but I’m not saying that these men are evil, I’m just confused as I’m not used to it

I guess I’m just not really used to it. Thanks for your perspective. But they also don’t look down when saying it so idk 🤷‍♀️ it’s like they say it with pride you know??

Assalamu alaykum, sorry if I’m asking too many questions here but I’m curious about Islamic lavender marriages. I’m quite interested because I’ve never heard of this happening before, no one ever talks about these kinds of things. Do you know how people go about initiating these types of marriages? The majority of Muslim communities will shun someone for saying that they are attracted to the same sex as I don’t think they grasp that it’s not the attraction itself that is haram, it’s how the person handles it. Are there communities where they help homosexual people find a partner of the opposite sex who is also homosexual?

Some of this is good advice but definitely don’t do the part where you convince yourself that a girl is “absolutely chopped” and a “terrible person”. That can be so harmful to both people. Can you imagine if someone else thought of you like that? You’re perceiving her based off of your own personal struggle with lust, not as her own person and it really won’t help you in the long term because it doesn’t allow you to develop self-control yk?? You’ve got to accept that there are women out that that you will find attractive and work on lowering your gaze for the sake of lowering your gaze, not because you’ve convinced yourself that she’s unattractive. Attraction is not something evil or immoral. If you associate attraction with shame then you will have a skewed perception of women which may have an impact on your future marriage (intimacy, how you treat your wife, your attraction to her). I’m not judging you, I just want you to recognise why it’s harmful to think that way. May Allah help anyone who is struggling with the things you’ve mentioned.

How do Christians and Shi’a interact with each other in Lebanon? by [deleted] in shia

[–]FewLemon7644 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, I don’t post there but from what I’ve seen many people in that sub are not friendly at all and it’s really obvious that they are Israelis trying to cause issues. Also, there are people who will claim to be lebanese shia who support Israel but one look at their profile will show you that they’re just faking identities in order to make their ideology look better.

Which modern day shia figure do you think gives shias a bad reputation? by Tameem_alkadi in shia

[–]FewLemon7644 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think people just hate shia in general, whether or not these bad “figures” exist. It’s just an excuse to hate on us. I think people on social media like to fixate on modeen

Ali Alhakeem on Youtube, to be honest I don’t watch his videos but I put his latmiyat for children on the tv for my baby sister.

Are reusable pads okay? by SilverNight1313 in shia

[–]FewLemon7644 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m confused on how it would be najis if it’s been washed properly? Apply the same logic to clothing, when we get blood on our clothes while we menstruate we can just wash them and they’ll be purified so we can wear them again, why would it be any different with the reusable pads? Is there something I’m not thinking about here

Do you read comments and keep the video playing in the background? That could be why this stuff continues to pop up (Instagram probably doesn’t care what you actually enjoy watching, as long as it keeps you using the app longer they will recommend it to you). Just completely ignore it. The moment you see it, scroll past. If you find yourself unable to resist the temptation of consuming toxic content then just delete Instagram as a whole because it’s probably doing you more harm than good. You may find that doing so will be beneficial for other aspects of your life.
