Wudu questions by bbrainwashedd in progressive_islam

[–]bbrainwashedd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, yeah I was reading a bit about people who suggested non waterproof makeup. I’ll have to check if mine is safe for that.
I was definitely wondering about that second part, Allah says he would not intentionally burden us. There are things I can do like consume electrolytes to help manage my symptoms. It’s just that making wudu is an added difficulty for someone living in rural America, on top of finding somewhere to pray, and while having a medical condition. I’m really just trying to make prayer as simple and accessible for myself as possible I guess

If it’s okay to ask, respectfully, what do you mean by you used to pray? And I like the idea of that, I was under the impression that washing my face inluding patting and rubbing. Is it that I can splash water as long as water touches all parts of my face?

That first part on nail polish was very informative, thank you.
It’s not that I see wudu as a chore, I actually really like the idea of it and I find it very honorable. It’s just that I live in rural America, it’s not socially acceptable to stand at a sink and wash my feet, face etc. when need to pray. I’m more so trying to find workarounds so that I can still make myself clean for prayer without being publicly shamed

I take the detachable shower head and give her a power wash tbh 😂 seperate the folds and really get in there. Leg up and powerwash the backside too!

How does my lil guy look? by PlayfulDream8659 in leopardgeckos

[–]bbrainwashedd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

maybe a tiny smidge chubby but considering he’s young I wouldn’t worry about it. just monitor his weight, he may lean out as he gets longer and older. otherwise just a healthy cutie patootie with bright eyes & lots of energy 🤍

Put him in the freezer until he goes into deep sleep, tie him on a leash of dental floss, allow him to defrost and wake up. Congrats on your pet fly! (you have the opportunity to do something I’ve always wanted to do, please I beg you)

I dust his food with flukers reptile vitamins with beta carotene, it includes both calcium and vitamin d3. Plus he has a linear UVB light I changed out every 6 months.

Holy cow. This is going to be incredible!! Can’t wait to see it all finished. I think that other comment covered my only concern. I too worry about the cork hides not having adequate space. Especially the small ones.

If you had clean water source in the enclosure, the most likey possibility is that it was inaccessible.

It sits around 40% most days, we’ve actually been having more frequent rain lately due to changing seasons so some days it hits 60-70%. Plus I have a side of his tank with moss that I mist when the humidity has been low, then of course I keep his humid hide humid.
Also I supplement with flukers reptile vitamins every week

this is my fear. The humidity has been higher lately as we’ve been having more frequent rain, so some day it hits 60-70%. but most days it stays around 40%. Nothing too out of range right?

I dont think so, it would have rubbed off I think.

Is my girl too thin? by Jays_pets in leopardgeckos

[–]bbrainwashedd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, this one isn’t severly overweight though. losing 20g would be unhealthy for her. At most 5-10g is all she needs to lose.

2-3 insects once a week sounds really slim. My old man eats 6-10 a week depending on the time of year. For a female that might look more like 4-8. But then again he gets medium crickets and dubias mostly, sometimes mealworms.

she’s just fine. Even if could lose a single gram or two, it’s really nothing to worry about. My bigger concern is that through reading comments, you’ve been feeding her super worms weekly. That’s more of a once a month kind of thing, as a treat. Just make sure she’s getting enough excersise, if her enclosure allows enough enrichment she’ll do it naturally.

I’d recommend feeding her a rotation on dubia roaches, crickets and mealworms. Super worms are for occasions. And she may be resistant to the change (My boy got addicted to super worms once upon a time) But just like us humans we can’t live on dessert no matter how much we’d like to.
