He is the praise, the praise-giver and the one who is praised.

Have you lifted your gaze towards the sky today and marvelled at its majesty, or will another day pass by without your gratitude?

the way life continues after someone dies is one of the most humbling and frightening realities.

@lebanesesami ...perhaps because the iranians have more spine to stand up for OUR country than the lebanese government itself?

Why is no one supporting a peace deal for Lebanon but everyone and their mothers is supporting a peace deal for Iran

"Why is no one supporting the slaughter and annihilation of south lebanon instead of supporting the protection of south lebanon?"

Times that make me revisit Amal Dunquls poem لا تصالح

The collaborating Lebanese State has officially signed a "framework deal" with the "israeli" occupation entity. The collaborating Lebanese State signed a deal that highlights the framework for "israeli" withdrawal from Southern Lebanon only after the Lebanese Army is deployed and Hezbollah is disarmed. "israeli" reports have stated that the occupation army will not withdraw from the so-called "yellow zone" until Hezbollah is disarmed, and this is what the Lebanese State agreed to. Not only is the State pushing in the direction of a confrontation between the Lebanese Army and the Resistance—God forbid—they are also putting the Lebanese Army at risk of facing the occupation army in the South as they attempt to deploy. The events of the 15 months that preceded the start of this war prove that it was "israel" that caused the failure of the completion of the Lebanese Army's deployment south of the Litani River. Not only is Aoun and Salam's regime acknowledging the legitimacy of the enemy of the Lebanese people—the enemy who has spilled their blood that has not dried yet—they are also collaborating with this enemy and enabling it to continue its annihilation project against a large sector of the Lebanese people, namely the Resistance support base in Southern Lebanon, and potentially beyond, specifically the Shia. "israeli" officials have already started labeling this deal as a victory against Iran, and as sidelining Hezbollah, which was the goal from the very beginning; the goal that Aoun and Salam achieved on behalf of the occupation. Whether it stands on the ground... the battlefield will tell.

The worst thing society has normalised is attributing the tragedy of karbala only to shias when infact it's biggest tragedy in Islam, if you can't mourn atleast have respect for the incident.

@Zahrathee God also allowed us to show our beauty to our male family members and all women hence the argument does not make sense. I agree that other secondary reasons exist, like reducing the potential for haram in society but those reasons are not about wanting men to be content with you.

@wailoftheney You’re right, your man is not your God.. so if you’re going to do something it is to get closer to the Face of God and hiding your beauty only for your husband so that you aren’t pushed away from His mercy, which is reflected in your relationship with your Imam of your time.

Women do not wear hijab for the pleasure of their future husbands.

@eternallymewing Dear, it is a good thing that your fitrah helps you think critically rather than accepting blindly. However, this should lead to re-evaluating your own practice, not to abandoning it all together. We should neither center our lives around men nor society. Our only center is God.

@wailoftheney dumb shit like this makes me wanna take it off inshallah i will get forehead reduction and take it off

@Zahrathee A woman is not required to hide her beauty for her future husband. A woman is required to hide her beauty for the sake of God and God alone.

@wailoftheney I don’t think the original post meant that, what he meant was that a woman is required to hide their beauty for their future husbands as opposed to it being used as a meant to pleasure their husbands, which seem very similar in wording but very different in meanings

@YusufalAshari @juminocoded implied nuance

@juminocoded @wailoftheney That's not what the original post on the qt is saying now is it

@VinnyMeeee There is nothing more 'practical' than the divine command itself.. and nothing better than following it for the sake of itself. All other reasons attributed to wearing hijabs are either of secondary importance or human attempts to make sense of the command.

@wailoftheney im not a jihadi so im careless with what i say. dont take it too wrong. but you are saying the command and im saying what it really means practically. and islam aspires to be very practical. hijab with face cover is needed so no identification or haram thoughts are even possible

@VinnyMeeee Hijab exists because God commands it so, wearing it with the intention of "my husband will be pleased with me if I do so" distorts the pure intention of wearing it for the sake of achieving God's pleasure.

@wailoftheney do women even understand islam. calling it pleasure maybe too much. but hijab exists to protect family life from other eyes. meaning no man other than immediate family especially husband can see you properly. it exists to be a symbol of hiding you.

Held a presentation in linguistics... First thing they saw is my Sayyed Hassan screensaver

@mourningskull We are clearly not talking about the same thing. My post references ex-hijabis flaunting their decision to take it off with pride that they have liberated themselves from something bad. It was never about women who simply and quietly chose to not wear it.

aaaaaand your answer is........ *drum roll* 🥁 still INCORRECT! 📢❌ ex-hijabis choose to not wear the hijab because they simply have a personal preference not to have a piece of clothing stuck to their head in every public space as it makes them uncomfortable. ✅ last month in my saudi university, a mandate was announced stating that all saudi male students *must* attend dressed in the full proper shemagh (saudi headdress), and let me tell you, NOBODY liked it! to this day, the boys complain about having to wear a full-on headscarf in the hot summer. are you so dim-witted as to think that the only reason a hijabi woman would not want to wear a hijab is to "please men"? which "men" are my classmates trying to "please" by not wanting to wear the shemagh to class? imagine their reactions if they were told they needed to wear the shemagh in all public spaces their entire lives...

The sad thing about the ex-hijabis is that they flaunt their decision as the refusal of submitting to the will of others. In reality, they hate the hijab because they want to be liked and wanted by society, a society that gives no value to a woman beyond her body.

@mourningskull The contradiction is that they claim to have overcome submission to the will of man which they clearly have not because a human that does not care what society thinks of them would never feel so uncomfortable by a piece of clothing that wearing it affects their life fundamentally

@mourningskull I did not suggest they are promiscuous. I stated that they have the wish to please society, which is something every human experiences.

@notokay12345 Muslim society does not solely care about womens minds either. There too exists a pressure to please the public and a competition of pious appearance. The only true freedom lies in rejecting the wish to please society and man in general and instead wishing to please God.

@wailoftheney 100% agree. While the hijabi society cares only about women's minds. They don't care if a woman's body is showing or not, since it's no concern of theirs. They don't say "hey, your hair is showing", or "your clothes are too tight". Coz, ofc, it doesn't concern them.
