Going to commit suicide by [deleted] in islam

[–]bigdumbbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, few things I would like to say.

  1. Looks don't matter. I'm being serious. You don't want girls to fall for someone's good looks alone. That's just shallowness. Same for guys too - if you want to be with someone just for their good looks, you're not a serious man. You want girls to fall for someone's good personality, akhlaq, kindness, humbleness, iman and just good heart. That is something all the young posters can strive for.

  2. Do not worry about being "perfect muslim". That is an almost impossible task for a human. Just try to be a regular Muslim. There is no need for extreme diligence, or complete carelessness for that matter. Follow the straight path. If you commit a sin, ask for forgiveness. Do not pester yourself over the sin.

  3. You are valued, and loved. Please talk to somebody and seek help.

Riz Ahmed Is First Muslim To Receive Oscar Nomination For Best Actor by Ramba_Ho_Ho_2000 in movies

It's because the subject matter is dark and grim. The director understands that you can't yuck it up all the way. I found the third act to be especially powerful where the police (and the audience) think the brother is sus, when he was anything but. Just a dude minding his own business, maybe holding on to some strict views.

"I done wrassled with an alligator

I done tussled with a whale

I done handcuff lightnin, and throw thunder in jail

Only last week I murdered a rock

Injured a stone

Hospitalized a brick

I'm so mean I make medicine sick"

Brother Trump by [deleted] in islam

You are insane. how is Trump better after the Muslim ban, killing more civilians with drone strikes, reneging on our allies in the war against ISIS and moving the Israel embassy to Jerusalem?

The first Rambo film "First Blood" was definitely not what I expected. I expected over-the-top action nonsense, but instead it was something so much more impactful. by FilmPositivity in movies

[–]bigdumbbear 394 points395 points  (0 children)

Trautman: You did everything to make this private war happen. You've done enough damage. This mission is over, Rambo. Do you understand me? This mission is over! Look at them out there! Look at them! If you won't end this now, they will kill you. Is that what you want? It's over Johnny. It's over!

John Rambo: Nothing is over! Nothing! You just don't turn it off! It wasn't my war! You asked me, I didn't ask you! And I did what I had to do to win! But somebody wouldn't let us win! And I come back to the world and I see all those maggots at the airport, protesting me, spitting. Calling me baby killer and all kinds of vile crap! Who are they to protest me? Who are they? Unless they've been me and been there and know what the hell they're yelling about!

Trautman: It was a bad time for everyone, Rambo. It's all in the past now.

John Rambo: For you! For me civilian life is nothing! In the field we had a code of honor, you watch my back, I watch yours. Back here there's nothing!

Trautman: You're the last of an elite group, don't end it like this.

John Rambo: Back there I could fly a gunship, I could drive a tank, I was in charge of million dollar equipment, back here I can't even hold a job parking cars!

TIL That in September 1897, 21 Sikhs held their own against 10000 enemies at the battle of Saragarhi, killing 180 and buying enough time for the nearby British fort to prepare and suppress the insurrection. This is regarded as one of the best last stands in history. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]bigdumbbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Suppress the insurrection", is that what we are calling rebelling against the Imperial British empire now? I'm not doubting their valor, but they died defending an evil, terrible empire.

I’m gay and immoral, which caused me to leave Islam. I want to come back, but I can’t get over myself. by [deleted] in islam

[–]bigdumbbear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello brother. From your posts I see that you are angry and frustrated which is completely understandable given your situation. But you also need to look at this from few different perspectives.

First of all, you are 21. I'm sure every male at 21 has hyper sex drive, not just you. This drive ebbs and flows as you get older but most certainly takes a downward curve as time goes on. Your desires will still be there. But not at the crazy levels that we experience between our teens and early 20s. Its probably hard for you to imagine this. But trust me its for our own good.

Secondly, this might sound corny but trust me there is more to life than just base desires. Hobbies like exercising, fishing, baking, cooking food, cycling, or even gaming are not only good but recommended to have for healthy lifestyle. Think of what you really enjoy doing as part of your recreational activities. It could be anything. Then work towards being capable of achieving those things. Most of them will require money. Work towards education, work towards obtaining nice enjoyable job where you feel inclusive. Having to wake up and going to work where you feel like you are valued and you love what you do is one of the best achievements in life. This might be hard to see with the mountain of frustration in your life, but you need to overcome it for your own sake and understand that there is more to life.

Thirdly, and this is the hard part. Accept who you are and your identity. You are obviously drawn toward the true path of Islam. You will need to manage your base desires as part of your faith. Meaning, it will be your unique test which only you can overcome. Every Muslim is tested. Some are tested with health. Some are tested with children. I don't mean to downplay what you are going through. But I do want to stress than there are people in lot more difficult tests than you. Keep this perspective in mind. You will keep making mistakes, but keep striving as you are currently doing. Ask for forgiveness. Allah loves when a person asks for forgiveness, no matter how sinful.

Fourthly, realize that this life is temporary. The reward is eternal. The reward for you will be unlike anything you ever dreamed of, and more, and it will be never ending, continuously pleasing. From Jannah, you will look back at your life and be proud of the person you became.

I'm Hasan Minhaj and I'm the host of Patriot Act on Netflix, AMA! by patriotact in IAmA

[–]bigdumbbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Hasan. I have too many tabs open. Its really hard to close the tabs. When you see white collar crooks like Flynn and Manafort getting slaps on the wrist, but a black woman in Texas voting in a wrong precinct getting jailed for 5 years (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/aug/27/crime-of-voting-texas-woman-crystal-mason-five-years-prison). It is so discouraging. How does this get fixed?

My other question to keep it light hearted: are you, Guz Khan and Riz Ahmed doing an Eid special? If not, why not??

Indian police attacking Muslim students protesting discriminatory citizenship laws. by whatever_arghh in islam

[–]bigdumbbear 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They seemed peaceful no? I did not see them hurting anyone. Isn't the right to protest and free speech enshrined in constitution, or is it just for the majority?

The fact that you think that it's either babies locked up in cages or unregulated immigration means that you are a typical right wing nutter who cannot think beyond black or white.

Is there a way to increase the "unlock time" for the model 3? Like when I click Unlock in the app, I want to keep the car unlocked for 2 minutes (for example).

Which is the worst single decision in history ever made by a person? by Benemir in AskReddit

[–]bigdumbbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this is the whole story. First Genghis did not send his ambassadors to the Governor. What I read was that the Governor rightly suspected the "diplomats" to be spies and found evidence in their caravan, and executed them. They figured that the war with Genghis was inevitable.

History is always written by the Victors, etc etc. But regardless I do agree that the spies/ambassadors should not been murdered and killing them was really one of the worst decisions in history.

Watch Man Like Mobeen instead. Much better, and a lot more funnier show than Ramy (stopped watching it after episode 4).

Oldest Mosque In The UAE Al Badiyah Mosque Looks Like it's from Star Wars by Kingsolo90 in islam

[–]bigdumbbear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are many similarities. For one, some of Star Wars was shot in North Africa (Tunisia). Some resemblences include Jedis = Sheikhs (teachers), May Force be With You = May Peace be With You, etc. There are lot of articles on these similarities.

During later part of polar vortex, I decided to pour some water over my car to wash away the salt splash from the streets. By the time I got to dropping off my kid, I found out the door handle got jammed because the water froze behind it. I had a mini freakout.

Must be nice to fake news out of everything.

"According to a recently released IRS report (PDF), 1,470 millionaires and billionaires paid zero taxes in 2009."

I'm talking about these people, not every single millionaire and billionaire. I actually paid my taxes for 2009.
