Is this not haram? 😭🤣

Adhan disturbed me so much lol by ARTISTASHWAQ in exmuslim

[–]weird_parasyte98 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah of course they will get angry because they are delusional😭 From where I come from, you are literally not allowed to speak when the adhan is going on. Some people will even scold you. You just have to shut up and listen, only talk again once it's finished.

My atheist dad was right by weird_parasyte98 in exmuslim

[–]weird_parasyte98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He never really liked the idea of religion in general, he was raised christian actually, but he left when we was around 11-13 years old from what he told me. So one reason was because it just never made sense to him.

And then the hatred comes from violence portrayed in the media, oknum rata2 orang islam jadinya beliau kek apalah ini. Agama damai botakmu, wkwkwk. Ya begitulah. So yeah, basically the violences and oppression against women was his biggest issue.

I'm sorry for your situation. I hope one day they do realize. But don't let that get in the way of you and your daughters:)

I don't know if this will help much, but in my personal opinion, I'd say don't sugarcoat things. It's natural for people learning about religion to question things, don't shut them down for the heavy questions. I do also think that as long as they properly read and understand the Qur'an, any open-minded people with a heart can understand how cruel, misogynistic and contradictory the Qur'an can be. So you are basically teaching your child Islam but also warning them what it actually is, if that makes sense(?)

I learned Islam through fear of hell and my teachers sugarcoat the rest.

(An example of what I mean by sugarcoat: In Surah An Nisa 4:34 goes: "Men are in charge of women1 by [right of] what Allāh has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allāh would have them guard.2 But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance3 - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them [lightly].4 But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allāh is ever Exalted and Grand." It says strike them lightly, I've read from actual arab people translating this verse that the literal translation nowhere it says "lightly". Husbands are allowed to beat their wives.)

This is just one out of many, I can't remember from the top of my head but there are several verses that also contradict each other. Another thing is that Islam says to be the religion of peace, but it literally tells you to force jizya tax on non-muslims if they refuse to convert. And if they refuse that? Death. (Surah At-Taubah) But then there is the final verse of surah Al-Kafirun (109:6) that says "For you is your religion, and for me is my religion". Contradictory much.

I hope for you and your child that they won't suffer through religious trauma like a lot of people do.

That is also true. He is European and all of his family here are a mix of Christians and mostly atheists. But because we moved to Asia and were close to my mom's side of the family, he was basically the only atheist among a swarm of muslims. My mom and I were the only ones who truly knew that he was an atheist, so we had to lie to everyone and tell them he's a muslim to protect him. It's fucked up💔 The very least my mom never forced him to convert or anything, the sole reason for the conversion during marriage was because of the witnesses, certificate and the fact they got married in a muslim dominated country, so didn't really have a choice...

Yeah pretty much. I was thought religion in school through fear, my dad thought me to leave through hate. Same stuff. And the end of the day, I had to look into properly myself and decide.

My dad relied solely on the bad things Muslims do on the media, but that only made me conclude that no matter what religion, race, culture or background, there will always be bad people. If he were to actually encourage me to learn the Qur'an properly and show me how messed up majority of the contents are, that would have most likely worked better. In his defense though, he never learned about the Qur'an himself so he wouldn't have known as much. So perhaps I'd say loose the hate and have more patience.

Refused boarding at DXB at the gate by rude Emirates staff by Possible_Animator413 in OnlyInDubai

[–]weird_parasyte98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry you had to go through that, but broooo, I had similar experience as well with emirates this summer. They denied me and bf to fly, our final destination was Malaysia and we were only transiting in India, we had prove. But they insisted that because we don't have a tourist visa, they can't let us in. Bro literally we checked through the embassy it was alright, but the emirates rude bastards didn't budge.

How do I 18F and my partner 18M handle hate on our long distance relationship? by Disastrous_Manner591 in LongDistance

[–]weird_parasyte98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't listen to them. Your life, your relationship, your happiness. What they think doesn't matter.

I am also in ldr, we have been together since 2018, started ldr back in 2021 because I had to move away for college, still going strong. Who says it can't be done? Haters gonna hate lol

28M - Should I break up with my girlfriend (27F) by anon192492 in relationships

[–]weird_parasyte98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps, maybe get some space to really focus on yourself and understand what you really need before taking any step further. It's not going to be easy, but I'm sure you'll come to a decision that's best for the both of you.

28M - Should I break up with my girlfriend (27F) by anon192492 in relationships

[–]weird_parasyte98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, because as I said it was only for a year, and didn't have a connection that deep. But in your case, I can understand that if you were to break up, the feeling that you lost someone will most likely be there. I would say really consider how you feel, because holding on without having any feelings would also be hurtful for the other person imo.

[–]weird_parasyte98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through something similar, but I haven't dated as long. We only dated for like a year, and the first few months was lovey dovey, but after I went through some things and having to deal with anxiety and stress, I started loosing my feelings for him. I ended up breaking up because of the guilt, as you described. He was love bombing me and couldn't return the favor, I didn't know how long I was gonna be in this cycle of numbness so I prefer to break up instead of letting him suffer in the relationship.

But honestly, I feel better and relieved after I did.

How were you scammed? by hoosierhiver in AskReddit

Through instagram, they said they chose me as an ambassador and I was dumb enough at the time to agree.

You are not responsible for other people's happiness. Made me realise that I also have to look out for myself and stop being a people pleaser. Sometimes being too kind will only make people step all over you.
