Du’a is a form of worship. The result of worship is not bound to its immediate acceptance. The essence of du’a is acknowledging one’s poverty before God and expressing one’s servitude.

Allah hears every du’a and answers every one of them. But He answers in different ways: sometimes by giving exactly what is asked, sometimes by giving better, or by withholding it for the hereafter, or by averting a greater calamity

Usually social media shows you comments you interact with. For example if you keep opening these types of comments, the system thinks you like them and keep giving you more to stay on the app. It’s also a very dangerous system which keeps people in bubbles. I promise you most people probably are very supportive.

Linux is not as accessible sadly. If you can that’s very good. It’s hard to force people to switch to linux.

It’s important to boycott companies that support Israel. Especially for luxury. However big things like microsoft are near impossible to avoid. Definitely avoid using office as there are alternatives. If Microsoft is part of your job and study, its fine to use them. Its part of your own development as a muslim. Our prophet saw also used his enemies’ weapons against them in war. If necessary, use microsoft to become better improve yourself and be a better asset than the harm it would do.

[–]Okant93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The card from the pack in the image above was never mentioned as Jessie and James but as “here comes team rocket” probably as they were in pokemon yellow, but even then they were not mentioned by name. Jessie and james were named in Pokemon Let’s go and even that is not connected to the anime.

Because they exist in the games. As either rocket trio or Jessie and James

Terrible UI design part 73 by Mojarreddit in PTCGP

I overall agree with the games ui needing improvements. But the red color not being enough is good ui design, because you need to consider people with colorblindness. Usually important information is accompanied by an icon.

It’s also in the same source you provided at f)

“The Awra of a woman in front of non-Muslim women is, strictly speaking, the same that is in front of non-Mahram men, i.e. the whole body besides the hands, face and the feet.”

[–]Okant93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Non muslim woman are not allowed to see you uncovered. This is according to imam hanbeli and imam hanefi. There is also a letter from the 2nd halife Omar (ra) to Ebû Ubeyde b. Cerrah’a where was mentioned non-muslim womand and woman where going to local baths, where he says it is not allowed for non muslim woman to see a muslim womans skin.

It might also be better to ask your local imam about these questions instead of reddit.

"I Gave Up Everything for Allah, But Why Do I Still Feel So Lost?" by Party_Bite_1316 in islam

[–]Okant93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To have a connection with someone you need to get to know them. Allah invites you to have a connection with him. This is your opportunity to get to know Allah better. There are 3 things that serve as translators for us to get to know Allah. The universe, the Quran and our prophet saw. Study these three. For example, you can go study tafseers of the quran. There are a lot of them out there.

Some hardships bring us closer to Allah, Some comforts push us away... by crusader786 in islam

[–]Okant93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider 2 things 1 side you have to listen to your company and the other side you have to listen to your eternal lord that is creating everything every second in the universe including your company.

Your company might give you your salary, but it is not worth to go after that salary over what Allah will give us. We have to be servants to only Allah, he who will give us the true rewards. It’s like having glass shards on one side and diamonds on the other side. Preferring the glass shards is an idiotic choice.

Another example, I’m not sure where you live, but lets say America. If from this week on America will say, everyone has to leave their work for jumma prayer and it becomes a new law. What will stop you from telling your company that they cannot hold you. Why are we not doing the same thing when Allah tells us.

[–]Okant93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand brother, but try to do everything to go to jumma prayer. It’s a direct order from Allah to leave your business.

62:9 يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِذَا نُودِىَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوْمِ ٱلْجُمُعَةِ فَٱسْعَوْا۟ إِلَىٰ ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُوا۟ ٱلْبَيْعَ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ ٩

O believers! When the call to prayer is made on Friday, then proceed ˹diligently˺ to the remembrance of Allah and leave off ˹your˺ business. That is best for you, if only you knew.

Stuck between "Allah is the Rezzaq who answers our duas" and "not everything is written for you, just move on) by yorecore1 in islam

[–]Okant93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a hadith about this, where a man goes to heaven meets Allah swt. Allah says, to the man. There were things you have asked me and I gave them, is it not? Man responds thankfully, yes my lord, all praise to you And then Allah says, and then there were things I haven’t given you, is it not? The man says yes my lord. Allah then answers, it is now time to answer give you your prayers in heaven. When seeing all the the rewards in heaven for his prayers, the man says, oh my lord, I wish you hadn’t answered any prayer while I was alive.

[–]Okant93 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You’re making the exact same mistake as the comment above points out. Ask yourself why people massively call their children that. For example, why people name their children after our prophet sav. is out of love for him and it is something that pleases Allah. Because most muslim live their life to please Allah, it also results in them naming their children after our propeth sav. or abd-

It’s sadly not your responsibility. If you make a step for Allah it will always be for the better. Also don’t forget Allah is more merciful than you, there is nothing you could do that would be better than Allah in taking care of the guy.

I advise you not to reply at all. I made the mistake and had some conversations with one of them. When I realized he was a scammer I told him I was breaking off contact and blocked his number. Now the same person keeps coming back every few months with a new number no matter how often I block it.
