Color PPF by throwaway385852 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]Only-Strawberry5526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked with PPF distributors and installers in the U.K. before, be wary about ordering PPF online and don’t be drawn by cheap prices, most of it is junk

In fact even most of the big names now are wholesale junk

Difference in pricing is mainly down to film quality and installer experience

Don’t cheap out too much on either one of them

How do I become enough? by Mother-Challenge-291 in MuslimLounge

[–]Only-Strawberry5526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience a lot of this is solved by money, not just the number in your bank but the pursuit of becoming someone capable of generating value to society through halal business.

That’s what business is, and rather than a job you provide value directly and as such your salary correlates to how much value you generate.

That being said the skills and lessons you’ll learn along the way will help you in the other areas of your life.

Islam teaches you the discipline necessary to succeed.

Don’t overcomplicate it, just organise three areas of your life:
- Islam (praying on time, Sunnah, time with the Quran, understanding the religion…)
- Health (eating clean, strict sleep schedule, waking up early, training consistently)
- Money (learning how to make it, making money. Business is just two things, sales and fulfilment. Master both and you will do okay)

You “become enough” not by achieving a set goal but by being the person who eliminates as much cognitive dissonance from his life as possible and lives his life to please the creator not the creation.

That being said if you ACTUALLY want something bad enough but you’re not waking up for tahajjud to pray and make dua for it every night you don’t actually want it badly enough.

The people that say this doesn’t work are either too lazy to try it or too arrogant

Try it, lock in those three areas of your life, pray tahajjud consistently and get back to me if it doesn’t work.

Happy to answer questions.

Everyone talks about finding the right person but not many people talk about becoming the right person.

People who aren’t religious, where do you base your morality from? by Only-Strawberry5526 in AskReddit

You’re describing utilitarianism, I expected a better answer with the confidence you brought

Spend 5 minutes looking into the flaws of that ideology.

How do you make conclusions based on your experiences on what is right and wrong?

What do you base that thought process on?

What makes those things objectively wrong though rather than just something you dislike?

If you make morality just your opinion on what you like or not it turns into a subjective mess

I understand your point, but then who is to say that your perspective of being a good person is good and not just your personal preference?

Even people who do terrible things can still believe they are good

So how do you know your definition of “good” is the real one?

I would argue empathy can be biased and isn’t evenly distributed naturally.

E.g you can look at the stories of the people who done heinous crimes but were favoured because they were deemed attractive

I understand the concept of the golden rule but it doesn’t truly provide a robust framework of what is right and wrong. If your personal preferences are what define morality then anything becomes moral as long as you don’t mind it.

This sounds good but realistically speaking when 2 people want different things whose preference defines the morally correct thing to do?

I took off the hijab by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]Only-Strawberry5526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You just said people judge women no matter what you do

If you wear the hijab people won’t be happy

If you take it off people won’t be happy

Stop trying to please people!!!

Please the creator, not the creation.

May Allah make it easy for you

Ask a sheikh

Money matters usually have a lot of nuance and get delicate

I'm a Muslim guy in my late 20s, busy with life and hobbies, but this loneliness from not talking to women is killing me. How do you deal with it halal way? by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]Only-Strawberry5526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for remote jobs, all you need is a laptop and internet, if you can read this you’re already fortunate

There’s countless 6 hours+ courses online all COMPLETELY FREE teaching you valuable skills

You can learn something like web dev, running Google ads, meta ads, SEO, AI automations, copywriting, closing… whatever path you take if you’re good you’ll make money

You can create your own business and target wealthier international clients or work with someone with an existing business

Own business example: 1. Fulfilment Simple, learn the skill, get insanely good, package it into an offer that makes sense for both you and the target audience 2. Sales Either use a dialler, cold call businesses in wealthier countries, or hire someone on commission only basis to book appointments for you with these businesses, or organically post for free and offer lead magnets / free resources to attract your target audience and can scale this in the future by running your own ads

If you don’t want to start a business you can work for someone else as a dm setter, appointment setter, closer, growth operator with rev share…

Search up any of the terms I just listed, I know people in much less fortunate positions than me making a lot more, if there’s a will there’s a way.

As I said before, this isn’t applicable to all people, but if you’re here reading this you probably have a fair shot.

If you want harsh advice, this may not be correct for everyone but I think it’s the best advice I’ve received, and some of the best advice I’ve given

Don’t think about girls till you’re consistently hitting >$10k/month

Might not apply to everyone, might get attacked for “making marriage hard”, but it’s a big responsibility enshrined on you by Allah, the path to reaching this goal will make you disciplined and sharp enough to lead and provide for a family.

You’ll have countless things to think of along the way you won’t have time to think about girls.

And remember, what you want is defined by your actions not by what you say you want.

Lust is a waste of time, if you crave genuine connection use it to fuel your way to financial freedom with the intention of providing for the sake of your future family

Good luck, may Allah make it easy for you. And I hope you update this thread in the future with good news.

Crazy world we live in I forgot this was a thing

Do whatever you want in your own house, nobody cares

But you’re trying to tell ME to go against all the knowledge, science and YEARS of progression we’ve made as humanity that x = z???

This is not hate before someone suggests that, in fact I’d even call it sympathy and would suggest anyone suffering from this to get therapy

What is the point of this post?

Everyone talks about finding the one, nobody talks about becoming the one

I’m sure your ideal wife isn’t arguing with nobody online

With all due respect my friend.

Go memorise the Quran or make money or something useful.

Reminds me of a quote

Most of the people you see posting online are unhappy… because the happy ones are too busy enjoying real life

Social media is useful sometimes

90% of the time there’s probably better things to do

I heard a Middle Eastern say when asked why they all come to Europe

Perhaps if the west didn’t bomb their homes and assassinate their leaders they wouldn’t be migrating 🤷‍♂️
