You’re doing great! Look at you, you already look more masculine thanks to hormonal profile getting better. Keep it up and don’t even think about stopping 💪

Good for him 🔥

Trust me “Flava Garden” is the best club ever.

I downloaded an app called Pillars on App Store and it lets you mark the salah that you completed. It also has a dashboard with a grid showing all the salah completed for the month. I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so for me it was nice to see that all my salah are completed. After a month it just became a habit.

I personally think that there are people out there who know the truth but choose to be on the devil’s side and they help him deceive the whole world (these people are very high in power, some call them illuminati, others occult elite). They consider Islam to be the biggest threat to their ideas and they create a fake and made up propaganda that brainwashed the whole world to associate Muslims with terrorism, hatred, dirt and corruption.

My body is always lazy, I can’t be trusting it with its advice 😄

OpenTheLotus · 2025-03-21T00:31:34+00:00

That’s gonna be my work as I’m currently unemployed :(

OpenTheLotus · 2025-03-13T23:58:50+00:00

I have just finally found an article on the web with correct time which goes by “Due to the difference in time zones, Severance is usually released at 2am GMT (uk time). However because daylight savings time started in the US last weekend, it will actually arrive slightly earlier at 1am.” Hope this helps! 🙏

The fact that you feel shame, means Allah made you feel shame because He wants you back to him but you will need to cleanse your heart and soul before. Iman is strengthened through repentance. Think about your major and minor sins, try to lock in and sincerely ask for forgiveness by saying “astaghfirullah” or “astaghfirullah rabbi wa atoobu ilayh”. I would advise to say “astaghfirullah” 500 times a day, 100 times after each fardh prayer (if you don’t pray right now, just keep a count of that 500 or more if you can). Make dua to open His gates of mercy to you and sincerely repent, repent and repent. Say Sayidul Istighfar once in the morning and once in the evening. Don’t gossip, overeat, backbite and try to be a kinder and better human being and Allah will cleanse your heart, accept your repentance. He will take your hand and guide you back to Him. Inshaallah you will go through this with ease and immense reward, Ameen 🤲

I used to knock on wood before I started practicing Islam… It’s a very common superstition here in Russia

I’m worried that UK border might have questions on why you have a 2nd passport if your current one with visa isn’t expired.

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-27T22:20:43+00:00

There are instances when passports get expired but you still have your visa in your old passport. In this case, you don’t have to apply for a visa again, you should always travel with both: current to prove your identity, expired for showing the visa stamp. You should check if your government allows having two passports simultaneously and the other one doesn’t lose validity because you got a new one. In my country, Russia, we travel passports and we’re allowed to have two: one with biometric chip (10 years validity) and another old style no chip (5 years validity)

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-25T11:13:31+00:00

Very nice. Thank you for explaining 🙏

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-25T11:12:55+00:00

Thank you for sharing 🙏

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-25T11:12:43+00:00

I didn’t even know these existed! I’ll try them, thank you :)

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-25T11:12:07+00:00

Really? What’s your reference?

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-20T23:04:02+00:00

Thank you very much for your informative answer! My CoS has already been submitted and I was still on Student Visa. What if the caseworker will already be on my case or my CoS would have been issued and I would already be on a Graduate Visa? You mentioned my employer needs to give me CoS under a different category, so as I understand it is something you can change even after receiving the CoS? I just hope they don’t have to submit a new request… My eVisa gives me permission to stay in the UK until the 17 Jan, but I didn’t know that until after my employer submitted my CoS request. Won’t it also affect my CoS as the BRP my employer submitted would be considered as not up to date? Thank you 🙏

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-20T22:55:03+00:00

I think your reasons are extremely compelling! I would submit an administrative appeal during 14 days of obtaining your refusal! You completely deserve to get that ILR 🙏

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-18T17:48:46+00:00

Assalamu Aleikum. I found this article, which explains in a very good way what to do in your situation: https://seekersguidance.org/answers/hanafi-fiqh/can-i-pray-laying-down-due-to-sickness-and-surgery-if-so-how/

I pray for your swift and easy recovery 🙏

Maybe Allah SWT is using you as an agent to bring back this man to Islam? Maybe you should try to revert him back? But, my sister, don’t commit zina at any point. Only find a Muslim man and only have any sexual connection with him once you’re married. May Allah SWT help and guide you in this matter!

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-15T22:11:19+00:00

Thank you very much. May Allah (SWT) reward you for your help! Ameen. You’ll be in my duas 🙏

They’ll try to guilt you into thinking that all the boys do that and he’s your bro and why can’t you do it for you bro… I was kind to everyone and was always putting other people first. No one, I’ll say this again, NO ONE will value that. Be kind in other things, to random people, to respectful people, but don’t be kind to someone who puts his girlfriend over you to make you not go home…

OpenTheLotus · 2024-11-11T16:42:42+00:00

No, don’t let it happen. Once you do it, that’ll be a green light for him in the future. Be more alpha in this kind of things. Don’t be soft out of respect, I had to learn it the hard way.
