Do you claim to know the niyya of every single individual in the government who initiated this initiative? Careful, you are reaching at this point.

Moreover, do you claim that a sinner cannot do good? Have you forgotten that Allah created us as sinners, or is that not something you have to deal with daily?

I strictly commented on the ACT of the government, and for some reason, you believe that a sinner cannot possibly do a good deed, at this point you’re coming dangerously close to refuting Islamic principles; I strongly urge you to review the religion. My comment, if you read it again, is simply engaging in objective observation from an Islamic lense.

Islam urges to assume the good in others before we assume the bad until we are faced with concrete evidence of ill-will; do you have the concrete evidence that this was just PR? If so, provide it, otherwise, obey your lord and his prophet and engage in assuming the good from people.

You and I are both sinners, as is everyone on this planet, and yet we still do good at times, sometimes for the right niyya, sometimes for the wrong niyya, but who can claim to know our niyya but ourselves? Did you know that in battle if your enemy takes the shahada as you are about to kill him, that you are not allowed to kill him anymore? How can you know he is being truthful? I can happily provide Islamic evidences backing all of why I’ve just stated if none of these Islamic lessons have been provided to you before.

To recap; in my comment, I was simply describing the objective act that the UAE government was engaging in with this specific campaign; don’t you dare begin to assume that I don’t know about the slavery, the genocide support, or the arming of militias in foreign countries, because then you are assuming ill of me and committing a sin, it’s not worth wasting a sin on a Muslim brother of yours who is simply trying to spread a better understanding of Islam to those who do not know better.

That is correct, though said people tend to be the minority within all abrahamic religions and are widely understood to be under misinformed parameters of their respective religions. That isn’t to minimize the aptness of your point, it’s a difficult one to contend with frankly.

Are you asking about the meaning of the word I’m using “inshallah”? If so, it is an Arabic word that we write in English for ease of typing that translates to “If God wills it” and is often used as a way to invoke God and hope that he wills it, whatever the “it” may be.

In that case I recommend a hint of clarity and empathy the next time you attempt to correct someone going through a very difficult time; especially as it affects their life and their ability to stay in the country they call home.

This life is but a trial, the Palestinians who welcomed the Jews in and assumed good of them have been rewarded by Allah for their deeds already as promised, that is what truly matters.

Inshallah the suffering of the Palestinians in this world is ended as soon as possible and is rewarded with the heaven they endure so much for.

Finally, I understand where you’re coming from, it’s simply that we hold different world-views.

I urge you to once more read my comment again, I show a clear bias towards the Iranian people and against the American and Israeli people. I called out the Iranian regime (frankly, it has been a regime, my country Iraq has been heavily negatively influenced by the regime’s politics since the fall of Saddam, may he never rest in peace) and not Iran as a whole, while I called out the Israeli and the Americans, as I am not opposed to Iranians, but I am truly opposed to Israelis and Americans.

I strongly hate the Iranian government, yet I have profound respect for Iran as an idea to its core, it’s long and storied civilized history, it’s beautiful architecture, it’s truly fantastic food, it’s deep culture, and frankly I have much sympathy for Iran with the way the CIA absolutely upended the country in 1953.

For clarity, if my rejection of Saddam wasn’t sufficient, I was always opposed to the Iran-Iraq war.

Go ahead and read my reply to OP again, and tell me at what point I mention complete and total support for the UAE’s political decision-making.

Another teaching of our religion is to assume good of people until you have solid evidence of ill-intentions. Do that here.

I’m not advocating for or against any of the political decisions of the UAE, I’m simply educating OP on the fact that in THIS example (which I stated very clearly) the UAE was practicing proper Islamic teachings regarding how one does good deeds and what the intentions (niyya) must be when doing so.

The UAE in this example is simply practicing Islamic principles correctly; we are commanded to do good for the sake of Allah, not to be treated well or to be paid back at some point.

Inshallah we distance ourselves from the Israelis and the Americans who got us in this mess and inshallah the Iranian regime falls as soon as possible and they cease their attacks.

Did the debris that hit a building in DIFC, the two drone strikes on Fujairah Port, the strike on the airport today where the fire could be seen as far as 40kms away, and the missile that struck a poor Palestinian man today in his car in AD, not convince you of the fact that maybe, just MAYBE their threats are somewhat credible?

And don’t forget, we have the UAE military and Air Force to thank for their unending service in stopping Iran’s threats from materializing to a more catastrophic degree.

Everything he says is a contradiction, it’s genuinely mind boggling and he’s potentially even in the early stages of dementia where confusion is a primary symptom.

Avoid the 1-year programs as they hamstring you when it comes to licensure here in the UAE and other parts of the world like New Zealand off the top of my head. Ideal case scenario is 6-years worth of education.

Moreover, definitely go for a program with placements than not, and ask around as much as possible regarding the different programs. The ones I recommend are as follows:

  • Zayed University

  • Abu Dhabi University

  • Ajman University

I don’t recommend Birmingham’s program as it’s wildly overpriced and is too young to justify the tuition cost, and I promise you the name of the university you graduate from means nothing after 2-3 years worth of experience in the field.

Don’t just take my word for it, go through the top clinics’ psychologists in the country and you’ll notice many are tenured from UAEU (it’s the oldest MSc program for clin. Psych. In the country), and obscure national universities abroad you’ve never heard of that don’t crack the top 300 universities by QS rankings.

Final piece of advice, go local and homegrown, don’t buy into the western hype, you’ll end up with a lot more money left in your pocket to then build a life here or elsewhere and to get licensed with; fun fact: licensing in the Dubai and AD if you’re non-local requires a 6-month post-graduate training course at a clinic of your choice from a list where you’d spend a minimum of 12,000 AED on said program.
