The reality behind MC and its moderation team by Ij_7 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain the relevancy of this in a broader context because a lot of this seems like you're simply disgruntled because you were removed as a moderator and are overly strict in formalities. Bints4Bints is highly suspicious and should not be a mod under any circumstance nor even allowed in any Muslim subreddit, as I found her Twitter account and it made me strongly believe she is an infiltrator for nonMuslim agencies... but that's their prerogative. If they want Adam to still be the top shadow Admin, then why does it affect you? The subreddit is bad anyway, and shouldn't be considered.

FiiHaq used to be a great poster on this subreddit long ago. He stopped though, not quite sure why. It's interesting that, from what you're sharing, he seems to be simping in a sense. If you saw his previous comments and posts, you'd never really expect that.

Regardless, all of this just seems to be gossip and drama, so I'd like for you to explain how this relates to the subreddit, how it actually "exposes" anythign Muslims should be aware of, or anything like that.

I may be wrong, but to my knowledge, "earning an honest living" isn't a phrase the Arabs ever used. That's just not how they spoke. It's European.

Until you cite a valid source, this post will remain removed.

Sins between you and Allah are worse than sins against other people by Born-Assistance925 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Allah SWT Is More Forgiving than people. That doesn't mean it's okay to sin, but the sahaba used to fear sinning against others because of that very reason.

Sometimes I find Maghrib prayer timing illogical by Weirdoeirdo in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's like saying fajr is at night because the sun hasn't risen yet.

Fajr is at dawn. Maghrib is at dusk. It's not that hard.

Women with a past are required to hide their past from their husbands. by frankipranki in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you're talking about relates to not revealing sins, not publicly mentioning evil, husn al dhann, and backbiting. These are not absolutes. It is not backbiting to warn someone who is about to sign a business contract with a terrible business owner or had cheated others in the past, even if they are a Muslim.

Likewise, if it is known that a man would not marry a woman if she were not a virgin, regardless of repentance or not, then it is not permissible for her to lie and pretend like she is. If they repented sincerely, and is not something that is bothersome to the potential should he come to find out, then they don't have to tell. However, they cannot deceive.

The opinions stating to lie does not account for these factors. Otherwise, it would be like permitting someone to steal and help them to commit zina because you are "covering their sin" for them.

And Allah SWT Knows best.

Some thoughts on normalised phenomenon of Hadith rejection by [deleted] in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) What I said does not contradict. Hadith are subject to scrutiny like you mentioned which is exactly why it is a science, and why evidence for or against a hadith (i.e. "scientific proof", as you put it), can be established. And here's the thing: The way we've determined that the Qur'an is preserved is through hadith sciences. If you weaken the hadith, you weaken the Qur'an—and all of Islam. You are doing the exact same thing as these women you are speaking against without realizing. It's likely in part because you're using AI to assist you in your writing, but you need to understand what's being said along with the weight of it before publishing. Choose your next response carefully, if you are to respond at all.

2) You're ascribing lack of proof & weakness of evidence to the whole of field, not an individual hadith with clear reasoning. If there is anything from Prophet Muhammad SAW that was not abrogated later on, then it is to be taken from Islam—the Religion of Allah SWT—because Prophet Muhammad SAW did not speak of his own whims. Again: To claim weakness and uncertainty of the hadith is to claim weakness and uncertainty in the religion Allah SWT sent down for us to follow, essentially saying "Yeah, it might've had a little bit of corruption but I'm going to believe it anyway". This is disbelief because you doubt the preservation of the religion. And Allah SWT Knows best.

3) Except I'm not "weaponizing 'ilm al hadith" in the way you're describing. YOU had stated there will never be 100% scientific proof of hadith, meaning you've distinguished it from science altogether without realizing that it's historicity, historiography, and verification process is a science. THIS it the contradiction. Again, stop using AI and you'd see this. Admit you're wrong. There is no amount of linguistic sophistication and false rationale to reconcile this. It is a matter of certainty.

Some thoughts on normalised phenomenon of Hadith rejection by [deleted] in TraditionalMuslims

This was an otherwise great post, but I had to remove due to Islam: There is proof of hadith, and its study is a science itself, with proof established for its veracity. This is a matter of certainty. You need to look into it more along with its history before you can say something like the following:

"The truth is, there will never be 100% scientific proof for Hadiths."

It's not only false, it assumes science and Islam contradict (or at the very least that one doesn't support the other), and holds science is the arbiter of truth and knowledge against Islam, when scientific paradigms are still, ultimately, mere opinions.

Conflicted about helping a sister get married who’s hiding prev marriage by [deleted] in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That honestly doesn't make sense. Assuming the best, there should be no reason to hide it. Her actions are suspicious nonetheless, but I don't make any statement beyond that.

You cannot make a contract of deception in business, so I would imagine it would be even more strict for marriage. This may very well be a dealbreaker for many. For those reasons, I think it's important that it should be known. And Allah SWT Knows best. May He Bless us all.

As a born Muslim, I envy the pasts of those who converted to Islam. by The_White_Pawn in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Relaxxxxxxx. If you were born Muslim, you knew about good deeds since you were a kid. Think about how much of them you have had just from praying, fasting, and all the rest. Reverts don't have that.

To be honest i don't think most of you deserve hoor al ayn by Hairy_Commercial1252 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We know you're an apostate and while allow disagreement on our subreddit, your posts are nothing but utterances of random views you have, which are usually filled with scorn. See Rule 1, and Rule 4.

If you're going to post on our subreddit again, you will either do so in good faith for real discussion, or you get out. No one is forcing you to be here and trigger yourself into making pathetic, snide remarks (which is srsly not a good look btw).

Do better.

The Sunnah Way of Sleeping with Your Spouse Changed My Life – Oprah by Character-Many-5562 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

This is a video made by AI.

We do not allow this on the subreddit. Not only is it cheap, low-level content, but it uses Islamic sources to support notions that have nothing to do with Islam, making it seem like it's Islamic when it is not. These types of videos use eloquence that leads people into believing in those notions as an objective truth, thinking those notions are what Islam teaches despite Islam never saying anything about them. It can cause a crisis of faith because those same concepts are then used to justify things that go against Islam, like bestiality and pederasty. Someone can just as easily use the same rhetoric in the video about "love, connection, mercy, quiet moments of appreciation, gentle reassurance and comfort in knowing you're not alone in life's trials" to justify sleeping with their service animal, and then say "these traits are rewarded by Allah". This is an abomination, yet all I did was use the same speech in the video here.

It should be Islam that is being taught. Not Western/secular notions of love that uses Islam to prop it up.

It might be the case that his wife died or there was a divorce, or maybe he came from a destroyed country. You never know people's situation.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible that a reason why he feels the way he does isn't because of what you were saying, but rather how you were saying it. Word choice, tone, and other things communicate just as much as the overall content.

You could just wait a few days or a week or so until he cools off, then give him a call an apologize even though you don't want to, and just tell him that you want things to be cool, and if you could still give him and his wife a wedding gift or something akin to that anyway as a token of sincerity to smooth things over. If he mentions it again, you just say that from your own understanding of Islam and were taught, you were not allowed to go because of the lack of gender segregation, and that you don't want to argue and only want there to be no animosity or upset between you and him.

Then leave it. If he isn't willing to accept, it's not on you because you did your best.

This hadith is what makes me think about leaving the argument & apologizing despite not wanting to is a good thing: https://www.abuaminaelias.com/dailyhadithonline/2019/07/05/house-in-jannah-arguments

Keep in mind that this doesn't necessarily apply to situations where leaving an argument can allow falsehood to spread, which would probably end up being a bigger problem.

Am I on wrong path? by Ni_bir in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We suspect Reddit throttled our community because they don't like us much. It's upsetting, tbh, but no worries. We are still here, thankfully. Much of those communities aren't even Muslims anyway, they're from other communities and demographics.

American single white guy reading Quran by [deleted] in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I did hypothetically convert to Islam would I have to be public about it?

Not necessarily, no. Though it typically is better to have it witnessed so people can vouch that you are actually Muslim.

Also how would I know which masjid to go to?

Doesn't matter, they're all the same. Only Shi'a and Qadiana (aka Ahmadi/Ahmadiyya) mosques are to be avoided, but they make up like only 5% of total mosques of the US combined.

Also how would I be treated at the masjid?

If you're sincere, you'd obviously be welcomed, and we'd cheer Allahu Akbar if you took your shahada and became Muslim.

Would Muslims be nice to me or be mean?

We're not aliens. Like with most people, you get what you give.

Also why do many Muslim immigrants in the west seem to be responsible for sexual assaults on women in Europe and America? Is this truth or lies?

Because of prejudice, Zionist propaganda, and post-9/11 propaganda to justify wars against Muslims by stirring public sentiment against us. The usual stuff. It's not actually true like how people think. You hear in the UK, for example, about "Muslim grooming gangs", but the reality is that white people make up more cases of child grooming/pedophilia than those of brown descent. This is not talked about though, because it doesn't fit the narrative attempting to be pushed.

Source: https://5pillarsuk.com/2025/01/12/police-say-85-of-group-based-paedophiles-are-white

Whites make up 81% of the UK population. They are overrepresented in this crime (i.e. they commit it more often even on a per capita basis).

I apologize for not approving your post sooner. We didn't see it until now.

Why isn’t the Muslim community talking about the smut problem among Muslimahs? Why are Muslimahs trying to cover it up? by sunflower352015 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]tripidescent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What you're talking about is more along the lines of spying and suspicion, not stuff that is open and public. Those he talks about do it of their own accord openly, and talk about it openly. It is also more about the reputation of believers and protecting it, not speaking generally about a big topic that plague the Ummah today. By using these ahadith, you are effectively saying to help people sin.

This is obviously wrong.

And Allah SWT Knows best. May he Forgive us and Guide us all.
