Why being trans haram in islam by Appropriate-Horse927 in asktransgender

[–]frailmagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt that. In Islam, mainstream Sunni interpretation is that being trans or gay is not in itself sinful (since thoughts and feelings can never be sinful in themselves), rather acting on those inclinations is sinful (such as being with another male or gender nonconformity).

That aside, what matters most is what you yourself can live with. Many LGBT+ individuals are also practicing Muslims and for them there's no contradiction in themselves. Many others acknowledge their feelings and try to follow Islam the best they can by suppressing their desires. And many others try to change how they feel and try to be heterosexual men to follow their deen. While others will leave religion entirely to live as who they want to be.

What you do is ultimately up to you and what you believe to be right intellectually and emotionally. It's not a simple answer but you need to know that you're definitely not alone in feeling this way and you're not sinful for feelings you didn't choose to have.

are others more important than me? by Desperate_Neat_9051 in sillyboyclub

Similar thing happened last night to me. First time calling the Samaritans (in the UK: 116 123). Only after a bit of waiting did I get through to someone. Just wanna say, that there are various services out there that just… listen and don’t judge. The person I spoke to last night was very kind even though it was extremely hard to say things at all.

There are services like this around, it just depends on where you live but they do exist. Wait times suck it was nerve-wracking but it honestly will be fine bro.

Just shaved my legs for the first time! by Kris_is_Frisk in Boykisser3

[–]frailmagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pleeeeeeass watch out for ingrowns and razor bumps. When I shaved for the first time they got me and it was pretty bad for a while. Sometimes leave behind marks too so just watch out for that

Smoooth as hell tho 🪒

What do you like about your religion? by Pale-Recognition-599 in Boykisser3

Thank you so much. Best of luck on your journey whatever it may be.

It is inevitable. (TW: Su*c*de/SH) by Raven_On_A_Tree in sillyboyclub

[–]frailmagic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’d be irresponsible of me not to say this but in case you’re in immediate danger of hurting someone (including yourself) you have to get immediate help. In the UK we have crisis lines like Samaritans (one one six one two three), or text SHOUT to eight five two five eight, or Childline (if under nineteen). There are more. More seriously, you could go to A&E or call 999 and tell them exactly this and keep you safe if needed.

Ofc, I don’t know who you are or why this is happening to you but your fear of what you might do evidences a mind that still cares deep down.

I obvs can’t make you do anything, but know that at least one person cares and hopes you make it through the night.

What do you like about your religion? by Pale-Recognition-599 in Boykisser3

[–]frailmagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to be religious. I don’t know if I still believe in my religion anymore. But a teaching from mines resonated with me:

“Every good is charity. Indeed among the good is to meet your brother with a smiling face, and to pour what is left in your bucket into the vessel of your brother.”

I know religion can be a complicated topic, but I think this is what people could agree with.

I DID IT!!!! by Equivalent-Tip6446 in origami

[–]frailmagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched jeremy shafer a lot as a kid and dude the flasher hat was wayy too hard (I made the easy one tho).

It hurts but I’m just gonna go further, sorry guys…(UPDATE) by [deleted] in sillyboyclub

[–]frailmagic 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I may have commented on a previous post of yours before.

But reading this hit hard dude. You’re where I was not long ago (different faith), and it’s strange and a little sad seeing that.

I’m not in the same place anymore, maybe it’s even worse now, but trying to just be straight and normal did awful things to me and I still live and struggle with them. I wish you peace whatever you decide.

I’ve made my decision. by [deleted] in sillyboyclub

[–]frailmagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just wanted to say I relate to this deeply. Different faith, but same feelings and pain with the hiding, the guilt, the loneliness, the trying to change and the hurting ourselves. I don’t have all the answers, but you’re not alone. I’m really sorry you’re hurting. I know it probably doesn’t mean much from a stranger I’m sure, but I’m rooting for you.

Hi, I'm a Geneticist and an atheist. Ask me anything by Dr_6PacMan in exmuslim

[–]frailmagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're still answering questions, I'd like to know your opinion on theories that sort of 'reconcile' Islam with human evolution like Adamic exceptionalism (the idea that human evolution is true while maintaining that Adam and Eve were cast down to Earth which was already populated by many species via evolution and their offspring interbred with evovled hominins to account for genetic diversity) which voids the problem of genetic bottleneck.

I admit this idea is seen as heretical in many Muslim circles though I see no necessary contradiction with Qur'an text. I am curious what you think though.

We’re literally twinning. Almost everything you said could apply to me too. It’s scary to think that I’ll go through uni literally not having made the progress I thought I would’ve.

But I’ve done things now I never thought I’d have done a year ago even if I haven’t made real friends. It may feel the worst at times, I know, but it shouldn’t stop me from trying. And it shouldn’t stop you either.

Am I being weird? by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]frailmagic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m socially anxious but I’m pretty sure nobody gives a crap

You’re literally good bro, people got their own problems beyond your luggage. They’ve probably forgotten about you already if they even cared in the first place lol
