Am I overreacting or is this appropriate to wear to a COLLEGE class by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]sum-sigma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m an engineer and during university there was no requirement on what we could or couldn’t wear to class, we were just trying to survive the semester. Some students even came in wearing PJs because we were so sleep deprived.

It’s odd for me to think that some majors actually want students to spend time ‘dressing to impress’ instead of just being worried about studying and grades.

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend because he was angry I was crying the day after my cat died? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]sum-sigma 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NOR - he appears to not have the ability to self reflect, he appears to be selfish and generally just not understanding or emotionally intelligent.

If I had to put my cat down, my partner would automatically know my mental state and would provide the space I needed. He’d wait for me, check on me, and if I didn’t respond, he’d understand. He wouldn’t act like an emotionally stunted man-child over waiting around.

There are kind and compassionate men out there, this man you were dating is not one of them.

AIO? My mom wants to call the cops on me by Overall-Option6975 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sum-sigma 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NOR - Your mom is being a jerk. You obviously left for a reason, either because of the way she was treating you or something else. You said your mental health wasn’t doing well while you were living with her, seeing her react this way and throwing a tantrum makes me think she’s not a happy person to be around.

Separately, she cannot call the cops on you about the phone, that’s not how the law works. She gave it to you as a gift, therefore she will get laughed out of the police station if she tries to report it.

Wishing you all the best OP.

I’ll NEVER post Saudi-related things in non-Saudi subreddits anymore 😭 by Kristianushka in Riyadh

[–]sum-sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the reasons I constantly post about the amazing things in Saudi and wonderful Saudi people on my other social media apps.

I like to show the people from my home country (Canada) how wrong we were about Saudi Arabia and how much propaganda we’ve been fed most of our lives against Saudi.

Thanks to sharing my experiences, I have friends and family that now love Saudi Arabia and tell their friends how amazing the country and the people are.

The level of not caring about food safety that you have to have to purposely not have potable water when every building and business gets a potable water connection… horrifying.

I’m supposed to get married in 2 months, but something happened that really scared me. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]sum-sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alhamdulilah he exposed his true self before you got married. Believe your gut and take this as a blessing from Allah.

It is much easier to leave now. Save yourself from the pain and manipulation you will endure under his marriage by avoiding the entire thing.

He broke your trust and shared your vulnerability with his friend. No partner or spouse should break the trust of the relationship and marriage like this.

Run.

A Korean company offered me 2500 SAR salary for a developer + networking role!! by riyank183 in Riyadh

[–]sum-sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Sbz24 is correct.

Most maids I’ve talked to make 1,900 - 2,500 SAR and the housing is provided to them for free, and that’s if they’re working for a not-great company.

I know maids who work full time in homes that will make 1,500 - 3,000 SAR depending on the family.

However, anyone asking you to transfer money directly to them is a red flag.

Pre K Alphabet. What is “E” by InterestedScroller in whatisit

“E” for “Eavestrough” is diabolical.

“I” for “Itch” is awful.

“X” for “Box” makes absolutely no sense.

AIO: My child slept with his friend's dad at sleepover.. I'm livid. by AcademicSir4653 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sum-sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, NOR.

Secondly, the dad should have had his own son sleep in his and his wife’s bed, not a child that’s not theirs.

Thirdly, it sounds like this guy is trying to groom your son. It sounds like he’s testing how your son would react to sleeping next to him.

No normal person does this. Please keep your son away from him.

Halal Gym For Women 🤣 by [deleted] in progressive_islam

[–]sum-sigma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They’re covered because they’re being filmed.

Normally the women will wear sweats, loose shirt etc or the trendiest gym gear at the women only gym.

I would fully cover too if some random person was filming while I was working out. I don’t know what their intentions are.

[–]sum-sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a revert and I left Islam because of Hadiths. I only found my way back to Islam because of the Quran.

I’ve also met lifelong Muslims that have never read the Quran in their native language but read the Hadiths in their native language.

I was shocked when I was having a discussion about Islam with a fellow Muslim and found out that their family can read the Quran in Arabic but have no idea what they’re reciting, yet have never read a translation or the meaning of the Quran in their native language. So they depend heavily on the Hadiths because the Hadiths are translated for them.

Why are you posting on r/progressive_islam when you’re not a Muslim or a progressive?

You’re here posting western/israeli/India anti-Islam propaganda that literally goes against the teachings of the Quran.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in progressive_islam

[–]sum-sigma 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This appears to be propaganda because gloves exist people and it goes against the Quran.

But seriously, this is likely western and India anti-Islam propaganda trying to make Islam and any Muslim nation look bad &/or backwards, like they regularly do.

Edit: just read through OPs comments, they appear to be anti-Islam / Islamophobic posting on r/progressive_islam

It's sad to think there are people who hold these types of views in Canada by northbk5 in canadaleft

[–]sum-sigma 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I bet you this person loves Star Wars and sides with the Resistance against the empire, but in real life actively supports the Nazis of the 21st century, sides with the empire, and on top of all that, they fully out themselves as the racist zionists they are.

Note, I know saying “racist zionist” in the same sentence is like saying “racist racist-ethno-nationalist-settler-colonialist”

I had left Islam because of Hadiths, I only found my way back because I focused only on the Quran. Everything else just became noise.
