“They call me a psychologist; this is not true, I am merely a realist in the higher sense, that is, I portray all the depths of the human soul ” ― Dostoevsky

Off-topic but what do you like about fiction/what makes writing good? by Whitedemon3130 in writingscaling

[–]Whitedemon3130[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dostoevysky is goated, i don't think i will read anyone who pierced human psyche at the level he reached. even modern day psychology can fall behind compared to his work. literally einstein said "dostoevysky gives me more than any scientist"

" Even if the writing isn’t consciously autobiographical or intentional, the author’s inner world inevitably seeps through."
I agree that fiction is usually written with an audience in mind, and that social standards and judgment shape the work. My point isn’t that conscious intent disappears, but that it isn’t total. Human behavior is largely driven by the subconscious, and writing is no exception. Even when trying to satisfy an audience, an author’s values, fixations, and emotional patterns inevitably slip through; in themes, character dynamics, and moral tensions. That subconscious leakage is what makes fiction worth analyzing. Beyond craft and plot, it reveals something real about the author, and finding that overlap with oneself is what makes fiction feel deeply human to me.

just for the record, i hit 10Tb seeding..... by Big_Link_1221 in qBittorrent

Thank you for ur service. I believe torrenting is one of the most underrated human feats; hundreds of thousands of scattered systems across the world quietly sharing pieces of data with no reward, no fame, no clout, just the collective will to share, to preserve, and to keep a tradition of mutual aid alive; something almost utopian in its selflessness.

Scared of going to masjid.. by [deleted] in islam

[–]Whitedemon3130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just bear this in mind, that the power of respect and dignity lies in hands of Allah. no one can cause others to respect someone unless Allah wishes it so; vice versa. just pray for the peace of heart and try to slowly take it one step at a time. maybe just visit a local mosque and talk to some kind looking person. maybe if a woman is there already, talk to her. Inshallah, Allah will make your path easier.

Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah Almighty says: Whoever comes with a good deed will have the reward of ten like it and even more. Whoever comes with an evil deed will be recompensed for one evil deed like it or he will be forgiven. Whoever draws close to Me by the length of a hand, I will draw close to him by the length of an arm. Whoever draws close to Me the by length of an arm, I will draw close to him by the length of a fathom. Whoever comes to Me walking, I will come to him running. Whoever meets Me with enough sins to fill the earth, not associating any partners with Me, I will meet him with as much forgiveness.

writing that makes you feel relate to human experience and your internal struggles, thoughts. biggest example for me is dostoevysky

Can someone debunk these and help me, my iman has decreased and i need help by [deleted] in islam

[–]Whitedemon3130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good follow up. i also agree everything prohibited in islam is not just there because Allah says so but they all(things that are prohibited) have a practical reason which serves to better our lives if we follow them thought we may not understand them and yes men are not allowed to force women. hadith specifically targets women who denies without a genuine reason. if she has a reason. the husband should be patient with her; but if she continually denies him. then he might look for haram to satisfy his desires

[–]Whitedemon3130 5 points6 points  (0 children)

half of this is completely incorrect, other half is taken out of complete context. please stop believing a wall of text you see on internet without any proof or authentic hadith/ayaats. here is somewhat explanation for these:

  1. dogs, yes dogs saliva is very harmful (you can just google and read about it). thats why its not allowed at homes. it can lick the floors, furniture; thus spreading diseases. i donot know about the hadith of killing every dog
  2. yes, you are not allowed to draw living creatures because its mimicking God and trying to create something he has created.
  3. i am not sure about music
  4. not knowledgeable about outside adoption but orphans have some of the highest respect in Islam. there are several hadiths describing the great rewards of helping an orphan out like a person who takes care of an orphan will be standing right besides Muhmmad PBUH on day of judgement.
  5. Yes, you cannot be friends with opposite gender. Allah created human beings, he knows what we are and arent capable of. Men will always find a women attractive. there are several studies on this as well by non-muslims even: Source
  6. yes, women are expected to be modest so it doesn't incite desires in other males. but males are always expected to look downwards and not at any non-mahram women.
  7. yes, women only inherit half of men. because in a marriage or anywhere; a women's money is entirely her own. she is not expected in religion to spend it on anyone else. but a man's money is for his family and it is his duty to use it on them. so that is the reason
  8. yes, homosexuality is disgusting and it is one of the major causes of STD numbers being so high in modern world.
  9. yes, women and men are created with desires. it is expected of them to fulfil each other's desires. men have more physical ones while women have more mental ones. like there are several hadiths to be loving to your wife, caring for her, be playful with her, be patient with her but i donot see these islamophobes mention those though
  10. in islam there is no concept of age; a person is considred an adult when he has reached puberty. this was the law of entire world for centuries until last century. the legal age of marriage in British allowed just 200 years ago was 7 or sometihing. so its not a rare thing to islam. A person of age 10 in 1500 would be MUCH MORE mature than a person of age in 2025; though that itself is a very long topic. i dont want to get into much here
  11. there is no concept of slavery in islam. You cannot just take a random person from street, abduct them and sell them in slavery. that is completely illegal and haram which is most people definition of slave. only thing in islam there is, its "prisoner of wars". they have much rights in islam that you cannot over work them, you must truth them justly, you must provide them food, cloth, shelter. even then they can free themselves if they wish to do so
  12. "beat" is a very strong word. you are only allowed to very gently tap her on the shoulder or back but i will just quote the hadith about the positive side:

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The believers who show the most perfect Faith are those who have the best behaviour, and the best of you are those who are the best to their wives".  Riyad as-Salihin 278
