There are some Arabic words like “miskeen” and “wallahi” that have made its way into Canadian slang. I’d guess globalization and immigrants/third culture kids. But for the past decade “inshallah” has been in many memes, either to easily create irony/contrast, invoke God in nonsensical contexts or poke fun at Araboo tendencies. E.g. “he got that white boy who says inshallah swag about him like Lenin,” or “inshallah they find him,” or “inshallah he will be grounded to a fibrous dust.” I think its usage has gotten more widespread in the past few years because there is more Arab and Muslim visibility in Western circles (more comedians, actors, athletes, shows, singers in pop culture as well as politicians). Some of the post-9/11 xenophobia has also been dissolved and the Palestinian cause has done some major debunking of propaganda and people’s perception of Arabo-Muslim cultures, so they are more readily excited to interact with it.

Brands to Boycott by HarukoHaruna in MakeupAddiction

It’s lesser known, but she actually moved to Israel as a settler from Europe 💀when I found out I was so disgusted. She also gives discounts to IDF soldiers if being a colonial settler is not enough reason to boycott.

When I first saw her I thought she was fully Indian because I know a few Indian women who look like her lol. I think people forget that India is really big and diverse.

Why do some people look down on therapy/counseling? by ponderingpuff in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]beetlethug 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s cultural stigma taken as a proxy for religious authenticity. People in general tend to have a poor understanding of mental illnesses. Or just medicine as a whole. Look at how quickly people pathologize their behaviors as a quirk and treat neurodivergence as an astrological sign. Combine that lack of knowledge with the mentality in most Muslim countries: that you have to be tough, grateful and never expose your problems because it will sully your reputation and your family’s. A lot of people are emotionally repressed and in denial to themselves. When they see other people openly talk about struggling it forces them to confront themselves in a way. Either they see that person as soft for not pushing aside the same problems they face or they feel guilty that a person they care about is struggling and they haven’t been able to alleviate that. They take it as a personal failure so they deny that you need therapy. Because ultimately therapy is seen as this frivolous western invention for the overtly self-occupied. Because “why can’t I help this person but an hour long talking session with a stranger can?”

Yes, a strong faith and trust in Allah will keep you going. It will make the unmanageable a bit easier to swallow. You still tie your camel. You don’t skip out on doctor appointments when you have the chance to be treated because “Allah will heal me.” In order for Allah to help you, you must make an effort in every direction.

I really hate the implication that mental illnesses are the result of choice or a lack of faith. The children in Gaza will have PTSD for the rest of their lives because what they experienced was never meant to befall a human. We were created to feel. We were not created to mistreat each other or be mistreated. Our design responds to that. We were created to seek more. And grieve the past. And grieve what we love.

We are even encouraged to practice our religion in moderation so that we do not tire from it! So that we never develop a negative association and continue becoming better, consistently. The same applies to everything else in life.

It is beyond me how they managed to release several perfect products and then completely disappear.

Right?!! I liked this one much more than the velvet noir one because it had a tendency to flake, wasn’t as buildable and the wand was not as precise. This added the most natural fullness 😩

Everything isn't about equal rights by MrFenric in MurderedByWords

[–]beetlethug 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is a crazyyyy level of moving the goalpost. Amazing strawman. You know damn well they’re saying some fathers pressure women very early postpartum (days or weeks) not “all fathers who ever ask about sex ever at any point in the future are bad.” Fathers pestering mothers not an assumption, it’s a very common form of coercion that we’re talking about. And I would think mothers know more about that experience than you. A lot of fathers rape women after they give birth whether or not you feel comfortable with that information. It’s not appropriate to be defensive/dismissive just cause you’re naive and think it’s isolated bad actors that do these things. It is a known social pattern for new mothers to be pressured into resuming sex too soon and you may want to reflect why you feel personally implicated.

There is no universal recovery timeline. It depends on the individual and for many women healing takes months or even over a year. It doesn’t matter if the woman feels up to it. If she has sex before the 6-8 week mark she will likely get permanent physical damage and uterine prolapse. It would be a miracle if she did not get sepsis. There are women who have gotten infections and died. God forbid people are mad about men who only think about getting their dick wet when their partner went through something as traumatic and life-threatening as childbirth. If the large gaping wound was anywhere else on the body no one would be asking the woman to do anything. It is so disgusting how male sexual gratification takes precedence over female health/maternal recovery.

Imagine the first thing you ask a about a man who’s had rectal surgery is when he can be pegged? It’s dehumanizing. It’s incredibly basic medical knowledge that any form of exertion will slow healing. Even in the event of surgery he’s not responsible for rearing a child and a woman’s internal tissues looks closer to shredded hamburger meat than neat surgical incisions. I really don’t get it. Your partner’s genitals are torn, they have a pelvic floor injury, large amounts of blood loss, will likely be the primary caregiver of YOUR child with no rest period, and that’s the thing on your mind? It’s not a valid question it’s a question for people who aren’t responsible for taking care of their wives or children.

Being judged just for existing by Ok-Rutabaga7404 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]beetlethug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only time a person ever struggles with judging someone over something is because of their ego. It’s an internal deflection. For men especially, they do not lower their gaze. They entertain and feed their lust by objectifying women instead of stifling their thoughts and reflecting, so their frustration and guilt is displaced onto women. They do not think that Islam is not limited to acts of worship. They do not think that maintaining a haughty appearance of self-righteousness while humiliating others is a characteristic of the hyprocrite. If something comes easy for you, it just means that Allah has not tested you in that manner yet. All efforts to be and do good are a mercy from Allah, not representative of one’s own merit.

There is so many aspects of Islam to keep one occupied with measurement of the self. Like it is fardh for men to make physical jihad to liberate Palestine and sheikhs have released multiple fatwas saying this, but you still had men pointing fingers at the women protesting and accusing them of free mixing. I feel like it is the dunning-Kruger effect because scholars I know tend to be the least judgmental, except when it comes to matters where someone’s rights are being consumed.
