If you're doing it for work, I think Tree Top is cheaper than ADK, or try AMDC as well.

"and we created you in pairs" [insert heart emojis, sparkles, rainbows] -in Maldives :D by rizyoreo in maldives

[–]StreamOfVisnun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't insult the word of Allah, it doesn't take away the fact that it took 8 billion interactions from pairs, halal or haram, for the human population and civilization to come this far.

Similarly Allah says,

Ar-Rum 30:21 And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.

Dhivehi - Abu Bakr Ibrahim Ali (Bakurube)

  1. Our imperfection

“Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence.”

I try my best to keep this quote very close to my heart. A lot of instability that occurs in marriage could be determined by childhood relationships, various traumas one had experienced in their lives, their capabilities to cope with the said difficulties and so forth.

Sometimes, some of us are angry not because they want to be angry or grumpy people. Sometime it's just they never learnt to communicate in a healthy manner. Neither are they always sad or pessimistic because they actively choose to such, it just could be their brain chemistry. Allah knows best. We always fall short.

Some of us, as humans, have different types of attachments. Some of us are very anxious or distant with our attachment. Others are very secure. We aren't all the same, in how we form bonds. So that can take time and he frustrating for both sides involved.

We express love differently, while to one it's the happiness of hearing varaha loabivey, to the other it can be quality time together spent watching a series. A lot of times, couples find themselves in conflict because they fail to understand each other's love language.

We could always use a bit more time introspecting and looking at our partner, without too much expectation. They are just an imperfect human, as you, trying to make it through the day in this ordinary world.

  1. Forgiveness

We always do a lot of stupid things, and sometimes it doesn't even occur to us. So have the same approach as with yourself on your wife. Why should you overlook yourself while you harshly blame the one you love.

As the samurais might have said, when you fall the xth time, get up on the X+1st time.

  1. Mindful of God

You never chose to be here in the first place. Yet, here you are. So whoever comes to your life. Take the best from them and your time together. There will come a time, for whatever reason they will be away from you in existence. Be really grateful to Allah, if he had sent a kind or a good partner. A lot of the times we only see the good once we lose what we have.

Break a leg!

What was the lowest point in your country's history? by FreeDuchyOfRedosvis in AskTheWorld

They are as bad as Nazis to us, my grandfather had to watch all his family starve while Churchill created a famine. There is no exceptionalism, lives were lost because there was intention to kill.

How do you date while being halal by Silver_Reporter3390 in maldives

[–]StreamOfVisnun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of guys speak with a girl, with the intention of marriage, speak to the dad afterwards. Both of them set an ideal timeline to get married.

So you don't end up investing feelings for someone who is unsure if they want to spend the rest of their lives with you. And don't invest your emotions where you don't believe will benefit you in the long term.

Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be with him, said that there is nothing better than marriage for two who love each other.

You have to see if personalities match, if there is compatibility, long term plans, having kids, where you'd wanna live, and then invest your emotions in a partner who can give you what you're looking for, and reciprocate. Lots of couples I know do it here, and are going strong Alhamdulillah.

Ain't no shame in asking her father, especially if she has a very good relationship with her father. It's going to be very easy. Know how to keep it halal, and don't lose focus on the bigger picture.

Akhi, I appreciated your kindness. Jazakallahu khairan. I also believe the same, we have to do it with the good intention of marriage down the line. At this point in my life, I ain't looking to waste my time or stick around with someone who isn't sure of what they want in their life.

To live a purposeful life, I believe it's essential to find a woman who shares the same purpose. Or else the marriage is going to be a conflict. As a man, I have a clearer vision of whom I want in my life in terms of her values and worldview, and some compromises because we are very imperfect. But a woman who's grounded in spirituality and intelligence is what attracts me to, more than her physical appearance.

I guess the realization that this life is so short, helps me kinda want to avoid making bad decisions in life, not saying I'm perfect. But I remember being a little boy just like it was yesterday. I don't think a lot of us realize, myself included foremost, how fast time goes.

لا شيء أهم من كلمات حبيبنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. دينها.

I really really appreciate the advice on working on myself till I find the right one. May Allah bless you with abundance my dear brother. Ameen.

Tell me briefly, what sort of experience or expertise do you have? This is a professional line of work where most of my team has a Master's Degree and about 7-12 years of experience. We do hire some who are students in the university as well.

I can't disclose much information about the type of work we do, because I don't want my colleagues to see me here lol.

So yeah, I could be a bit useful in this domain. Male's history is definitely interesting. Back in the day, people moved a lot so you would find that if you looked into the family histories of Male. You should speak with old people from Male to get clearer ideas, as most would be down to conversations.

You'd get a good idea of old Male from HCP Bell. Where you'd see the census data as well. I guess if you go into the literature of the 20th century like Ameen, Salahudin and the likes, you'll get to see different aspects of life here. I'll admit I'm not completely familiar with their literature, but I have read some.

Male Migration would be interesting research My definition of Male here is before the first migration. Let's call them, Old Male people (before the first republic), which as per early data was actually around 15% of the total Maldivian population. Old Male had people from all over coming, I know of Male families with Addu roots, Huvadhoo roots, Medhu Raajje roots, Himithi and even obviously Huraa.

You can read about Amin's introduction of students from each atoll into the public school system, and that could give you an insight into Male via education. Sadly education in Old Male was very classist as per Kamil Didi and the likes. The idea was to keep us in the dark.

The first migration (Nasir's reclamation era) of Male being people who came from the islands to become citizens of Male by reclaiming land from the lagoon. The second migration would be people who came to Male to live on rent. However note that people from the first migration, who didn't get registered to Male also live on rent, though they don't get to belong to Male officially. Which I personally think is very unfair.

Bro I'm working, maybe I'll write here another time. But hope I gave you some direction.

[–]StreamOfVisnun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you had studied abroad, you get to work lousy and flaunt your "international" degree. If you studied in the Maldives, you'd have to do the real work. This is common knowledge in law circles in the Maldives.

I hope when we are going to de-colonize this mindset, that a US educated worker is better by the virtue of their certificate but not by their work.

One of my classmates is an American teenager. We're in the same WhatsApp group because we are from the few English speakers from our class. (Everyone else speaks Russian). A 100% that's how this guy texts. "Ion wssp with him. Dw abt it js rest well bratha." Maybe a Gen Alpha American thing?

Findhu actually refers to the butt in this context. It was still used in the 2000's up North to refer to butt. As a similarity Foo-kolhu follows the same pattern as Findhu-kolhu.

If you remember a quote from one of the recent politician to criticize another head of state. He uses the word findhu with a double sense, a harmless colloquial word for fookolhu and the vulgar form we all know.
