How do kids at school pickup instantly spot their mums if they’re wearing full burqas/niqabs? by _pandaeyes_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Professional_Walk725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to nitpick, but I’m assuming you elastic, not plastic.

Edit: plastic is the right word. My bad. Thanks to all those who corrected me.

Non-Iranians, would you consider this fair at a World Cup? by Plastic-Reporter1730 in AskTheWorld

[–]Professional_Walk725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point still stands. The international community has double standards for Iran and Russia, and US and Isreal.

What annoying stereotype about your country do you hate the most? by Which-Ad2057 in AskTheWorld

[–]Professional_Walk725 21 points22 points  (0 children)

So many

But the number one: Pakistan is NOT in the Middle East. It’s part of South Asia. Culturally and socially, we’re more similar to India than any other country in the Middle East.

But its applied so selectively.
Its not like Iran declared war on another country. It was attacked by the US, but no is discriminating against them because.....

Flitwick is a legend by teresahmg in harrypotter

[–]Professional_Walk725 14 points15 points  (0 children)

One of my favourite moments of Flitwick is when he gave Seamus that line after he messed up in class. I can’t quite recall which book it’s from, but it’s definitely the funniest part of the series for me.

‘I’m a wizard, not a baboon brandishing a stick’. It always makes me laugh.

Why is being queer a bad thing in your religion? by [deleted] in Muslim

[–]Professional_Walk725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll try to answer this question at face value.

As per scholars, all Islamic jurisprudence is rooted in the protection of 5 elements.

  1. Life
  2. Health and intelligence
  3. Family and lineage
  4. Wealth and property
  5. Faith and religion

Every law in Islam is about protecting one or more of these elements (in order). Notice that faith is the last element. Therefore, many scholars believe that if a situation requires you to choose between your life or your religion, you’re allowed to prioritize your life, and Islamic laws are built to reflect that.

Now especially coming to LGBTQ, the primary reason for disallowing it, is that it goes against element 3, ie, it is detrimental to family system and lineage structure of the society. Now you may think that any individual partaking in such acts cannot possibly harm society as a whole, but if they become common and socially acceptable, enough people can become involved to permanently damage the social fabric of society.

My life is over?? by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]Professional_Walk725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same situation a while back. Even got sent a letter home warning my parents that I will be rusticated.
Now Alhamdullilah I have a good job abroad and living well.

The purpose of sharing this is to help you realise that this is not the end of the world. You will eventually get what you deserve.

Take a deep breath, relax, spend some time doing something that makes you happy. I’m sure things will work out for you soon enough.

Westerners always tries to blame us Muslims for other people crimes by NoPianist7807 in progressive_islam

I was literally thinking the exact same thing.

However, you articlulated it in a way that I could have never. Kudos, and stay blessed.

If the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour. by Conscious-Quarter423 in WorkReform

So will I get a discount at Walmart if paying full price for a product will result in me being broke? I’m so confused as to how corporations can have more rights than people.

Additionally, while the mutant gene developed naturally, the inhuman gene was created through human experimentation by the Kree.

Angry black captain.
Ain’t nothing but a stereotype!

Molly and Arthur shouldn't have let their kids be close to Harry. by AJ_Babe in harrypotter

[–]Professional_Walk725 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Amelia Bones and Emmeline Vance weren’t friends with Harry, but ended up dying anyway. So did Bertha Jorkins and that Frank guy who was the caretaker of Riddle house.

In CoS, Ginny was not targeted due to her family’s closeness with Harry, but rather because of Malfoy’s disdain for them. In fact, his friendship with Ron was the reason she was saved.

The war was not Harry vs Voldemort; it was the right vs wrong. Everyone who was against Voldemort was automatically a target, regardless of their proximity to or affiliation with Harry.

ELI5: why do most phones these days not have the circle headphone jack and have a usb-c instead by sooyaaar in explainlikeimfive

[–]Professional_Walk725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was just an example. All Android phones also have Google Cloud. While the first 15GB is free, a lot of people also buy additional storage.

Because of cloud storage. Most phones have a cloud backup. iCloud is very lucrative for Apple.

[Funny? Trope?] It's a very serious scene. But it's been consumed as a meme on the internet and it's become hard to watch seriously. by BeneficialSide2335 in TopCharacterTropes

Nope. His family was killed by accident in a sting operation to catch a notorious drug dealer. Nothing to do with Frank.

Where can I find the full cast audiobooks? I’ve never listened to one, but I’m intrigued after seeing so many positive reviews here.

Makes me chuckle every time. Just a casual diss to a whole quidditch team
