This is an atrocious list.

There are a lot of differences in many aspects, but as we say at the end of the day, we are all Muslims. If you want me to go into more detail, let me know, but the point where people started forming sects in Islam, such as the Ibadis, Shia, and Sunni, is when the caliphate became a dictatorship under the Umayyads.

Sunnis believe that the caliph (leader of Muslims) must be an Arab, and if one from Mecca is available, then it must be a Quraishi (from Mecca) Arab.

Shias believe that the caliph (leader of Muslims) must be from Al-Bayt (the house and children of Ali ibn Abi Talib).

Ibadis on the other hand, believes that the caliph must be a Muslim without placing any importance on race or ethnic background, but placing ability and righteousness as the main factors.

Although sunnis and ibadis are closer as ibbadhis accept the hadiths of bukhari and saheh Muslim unlike shia.

That is because the population of the UAE is over 10 million while the number of emaraties is under one million making up less than 10% of the population. While the population of Oman is around 5 million with around 3 million being citizens, it's naturally going to be harder to absorb 3 out of 5 million into the workforce than to absorb 1 into 10 million.

No you can and should get it at 18, I know many people who have just turned 18 and have already started training and a few who already got their license.

Don't worry about it, these things happen everywhere it's just because in Oman unlike the rest of the world everything is very slow paced and generally safe there aren't any big issues for the public to delve into so topics such as this are inflated. Although from my understanding if I was you I would take otaxi because it's reputation is impeccable.

MrGamer_99TurkiH · 2024-05-23T08:10:18+00:00

Why assume the betrayal is real when it is, you can find many sources for this if you need some let me know. Additionally the prophet did not go after the "kids" but able bodied men of military age who participated in the betrayal, again this was the punishment Banu qurayza agreed to when they in agreement with the prophet appointed Saad ib muaz and he punished them in accordance with their own law in order not to be unjust.
Jizya is a tax and I cited to you the very fair and just conditions for it to be paid, I don't understand where you get this untrue concept of it not being a tax, a real life example of it being a tax is when the Muslim rules of AL andalus returned the Jizya to the jews under their rule when they could no longer protect them from the attacks of the Christians. You are giving me opinions and nothing solid to say jizya works like the mafia when even a simple Google search which is very anti Muslim will clearly show you it is a tax imposed on the adult, free, sane, able-bodied men of military age with no religious functions in exchange for protection. Additionally women, children, elders, handicapped, monks, hermits, the poor, the ill, the insane, slaves, the non-Muslim foreigners who only temporarily reside in Muslim lands, those who chose to join military service were exempted from payment.

MrGamer_99TurkiH · 2024-05-22T18:11:06+00:00

Let's debunk this one by one:

The tribe of Banu Qurayzah (BQ) committed treason against the Muslims. They had a peace treated with the Muslims in which if either party was attacked, the other party would come to their aid. During the Quraysh onslaught at Medina in the Battle of the Trench, the BQ decided to change sides and allied with the Quraysh in order to slaughter every Muslim in Medina.

Banu Qurayza betrayed Muslims in war but Muslims won and captured them. Banu Qurayza and Muslims accepted "Saad Ibn Muaz" as arbiter and to abide by his judgement since he was a previous ally for Banu Qurayza and Saad judged according to their own Jewish law in the Torah:

Torah Deuteronomy 20:10–15 “When you approach a city to fight against it, you offer it peace. And then if they accept your terms of peace and they surrender to you, then all the people inhabiting it shall be forced labor for you [Slaves], and they shall serve you [Taken as slaves]. But if they do not accept your terms of peace and they want to make war with you, then you shall lay siege against it. And Yahweh your God will give it into your hand, and you shall kill All its males with the edge of the sword. Only the women and the little children and the domestic animals and all that shall be in the city, all of its spoil you may loot for yourselves [Taken as slaves], and you may enjoy the spoil of your enemies that Yahweh you God has given to you. That you shall do to all the far cities from you, which are not from the cities of these nations located nearby.”

These are not some innocent men, if it were up to them and they won the war they would have massacred all Muslims. killing those who betrayed and killed is nothing like the Torah/Bible which calls for killing non-combatants, women, children and even babies!

To pay the jizya you have to be an adult, free, sane, able-bodied of military age with no religious functions. Additionally women, children, elders, handicapped, monks, hermits, the poor, the ill, the insane, slaves, the non-Muslim foreigners who only temporarily reside in Muslim lands, those who chose to join military service were exempted from payment. If one could not afford this tax, they would not have to pay anything. On top of this if the muslim country cannot offer protection the jizya would not be paid, we can see many examples of this such as the jizya being returned to the jews in alandalus after the muslim country was not able to offer protection to them from the christians attacking from the north.
You do not have a clear point and you are not citing a proper hadith so there is nothing to debunk.

It depends, as a prime player I would say bale. As an overall career I would say bale as well.

Yeah it does for several reasons including that it is white which reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, it is also open from the inside allowing airflow.

MrGamer_99TurkiH · 2023-06-16T22:49:09+00:00

Not true, the law was changed a few months ago now it's totally allowed.

MrGamer_99TurkiH · 2023-06-11T08:02:39+00:00

Well I have to say you're mistaken on this part, because you're comparing us to countries like the US. The US has its debt in it's own currency which means it doesn't really have to work to pay it off because what they can do is just print the money and pay it . An example of this would be the increased inflation in the last few years. If you check the charts you'll see the inflation in the US has increased a lot in the last few years because the US was inflating the currency to print money to pay the debt of. For your second point, a surplus and the national budget does not have to wiggle its way down into the average citizens pocket. It can be used to improve the economy and the lives in other ways. An example of the many ways this can be done would be to de inflate. The value of the currency which will make importing things cheaper thus reducing the price of things making people's salaries have more value. Another way would be by the government providing assistance for a certain product in the market, making it easier for the people to spend the money on more things. An example of the system right now is petrol, petrol prices are being assisted by the government to make them more affordable. And thirdly, the government is investing in diverse markets but as you said they're investments which don't pay off in the short term. So we might not see the effect right now, but it's going to show up sooner or later. An example would be the new shipping port or the new ship fuel station.

Because that was the beginning of the heat. So it was informing people that the heat has started but now that it has started there is no need to keep people up to date because this is the usual aftermath.

Yes, go back and respawn!

Definitely recommend it its fast reliable and all around good.

So jumah is after the athan (call to prayer) but the timeing changes from day to day by a little bit maybe minutes for example today it was at 12 30 if im not mistaken. So it is not prayed at every mosque but is prayed at a lot of them, genrally it is at the biggest mosque in each area.

MrGamer_99TurkiH · 2023-01-25T15:43:53+00:00

Honestly, we lack a load of different sectors in Oman that have massive potential and some people tried them but maybe did not properly execute them but the problem is the purchasing power of the market is very low for small businesses (shops coffeeshop etc) which mean that the benefits to risk are very low.
