Had a dream that my dad commissioned you to draw his undertale oc for 220$. How was your day, Ozz?
–Muslim anon
That is a highly specific kind of dream. Well, if your dad ever wants his Undertale OC drawn, I can do it for free haha.
My day has been alright so far! I am presently pondering whether I should plunge into my inbox, save some of the early asks into my drafts, and delete everything else that has already been delayed for months. Looking at almost 700 messages now and I'm not too happy about ignoring most of them, but I don't like the prospect of a never-ending inbox. Remains to be seen.
I wish you a fantastic day, and plenty of luck with your Ramadan preparations - if there's any (I'm told it begins in a month or so).

I hope that you’re really not upset with my question, since I’m a Muslim as well, and I genuinely wanted to know what got you into this state, and I’ve been including you in my prayers for the longest time now, especially since I’ve been following you for years.
You’re a kind soul, a caring one, and you’ve suffered a lot in your lifetime as had millions of other children, some that I know personally who endured this type of sexual trauma from priests. I know the anger you experience regarding the abuse, and unfortunately I know it too well that it’s engraved into my bones. But hear me out, won’t you? Give it a last chance this one Ramadan, forget the priest—may he burn in hell for his wrongdoings—and forget the extremists you’ve encountered, just for a while. I promise you that you’ll find all the answers you are looking for when you read the Quran of your own volition, your own will, in your own time, instead of it being forced upon you and down your throat and just being taught the words without explanation. Remember that you are never alone in the struggle, never. The Prophet himself has survived countless hardships, and so many of the Companions—both female and male—have endured the worst torture from their parents and their siblings and their families just for declaring that they are now Muslims��their stories are there for us for a reason, and they’re one of the things that changed my entire worldview. And remember with me, that in Islam, in its core, that we are beings created for Heaven, Jannah, not for eternal existence in Dunya that we cannot survive without suffering, and that this entire world is but a passage and a test, and soon enough it’ll be over once and for all, and your patience and forgiveness and kindness will all be rewarded adequately, and you’d watch those who have wronged you burn in hell for eternity. He, the priest, might be dead now, but he’s being tormented in his grave for what he did, and he’ll be questioned about it on the day of judgement, so fear not, this world is but a temporary stop that we’ll all soon get out of.
I know that at first glance you might think that I’m just trying to coax you back into religion without knowing what I’m speaking of, just like so many have tried to do before, but I’m someone who almost became a complete atheist until two and a half years ago for the same reasons. And there must be a reason why there’s hundreds of thousands of converts to Islam over the past five months, right? So I’m reaching out to you out of love and respect, and that you’ll always be dear to my heart 🤍
Ramadan Mubarak to u, Rem <33
Ramadan Mubarak to you too, darling. I hope you’re able to fulfil all your fasts and that your prayers are answered.
But respectfully, I’m not going to be approaching Islam again. I’ve met no extremists, and if there is a hell then that guy is absolutely there. I carry no doubts over this.
But it seems you didn’t read my last answer. My decision to leave Islam ultimately has little to do with trauma, and more to do with the fact that I don’t believe in a perfect god. I don’t believe in a divine plan. I don’t believe in the core concept of Allah
I’m not looking for answers, I’m happy with my current spiritual outlook. I do good for this world no matter how small and I see it reflected back at me in a million tiny ways, and I can live with that.
I understand how you feel. You as a Muslim have likely grown up hearing that non-Muslims go to hell, that apostasy is one of the greatest crimes there is. To be a Kafir is to guarantee your place in hell, and you genuinely care for me and don’t want me to face that. It’s terrifying to imagine that people you know to be good could go to hell just because they were too prideful to accept Allah into their lives.
But understand, this fear is a contributing factor to why I’ll never go back. How can I believe that Allah is Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim when he will send good people to hell just for not believing in him? By this logic I could do all the good in the world, I could give sadqah every day for the rest of my life, dedicate myself to housing the homeless, and still I’d go to hell because I did these things in the name of helping people and not in the name of Allah
I’m so happy you’re able to find peace within Islam, and I truly, genuinely hope this Ramadan goes well for you. I have wonderfully fond memories of Ramadan, from the energy to the iftars and of Eid, truly, Ramadan Kareem, my friend, and thank you for keeping me in your prayers. May Allah bless you with all that is good for you, Inshallah
But please respect that I will continue to live my life the way I see fit.
Jazakhallah Khair

The holy trinity is an internally incoherent concept. Say what you will about Muslims and Mormons, but at least they have an internally coherent view of god.
It's a good thing that God is a being of greater understanding than man then! Sometimes I'm not able to fully wrap my head around a concept but God knows a lot more than I do, so I'll just trust him

AND WE MADE YOU PAIRS || coming soon ||
──── a homelander x arab oc story.
✰ summary - Homelander’s mission in Syria puts him in direct conflict with Noura, an activist working to protect her country from foreign interference. Although their initial encounters are fraught with tension, over time they develop a begrudging respect for one another. Homelander is drawn to Noura’s fearlessness and conviction, while she catches glimpses of humanity in him.
When Noura’s town faces annihilation, Homelander must make a choice. Will he remain the military’s loyal wardog, or will he do something good for once in his life?
✰ warnings - stalking, obsessive behavior, mental instability, cruel and unusual punishments, breaches of the Geneva Convention, war and everything it implies basically, bigotry and prejudice.

As an ex muslim, killer gives heavy ex muslim vibes to me.
Ooh, interesting. 👀
I’m not Muslim nor particularly religious (family members believe in the Christian God/a higher power and I was taken to church and all that as a kid, never really stuck with me though as I was only ever really there for the free food and cool stories, although I have lately been checking out Paganism), and i haven’t done too much research into that. Would love to hear more about it with Killer if you (or any other Muslims) want to share.

I need to ask this. What is your problem? I’ve seen millions of Jewish ppl including myself call this stuff out genuinely so don’t start with the tokenism bs. Seriously why are you acting like Israel isn’t trying to kill as many Palestinians as possible. Not to mention they already did that with Palestinian Jews as well so the issue isn’t antisemitism at all. What is the actual problem pls tell me rn. And don’t mention h&mas either bc if I do remember, there were bombings before 2000 and ppl have been dying before that.
I am SO confused by this ask.
Palestinian Jews don’t exist. Jews are not allowed in Palestinian territories. Israelis are not allowed in Gaza. I have NO idea what you’re talking about.
Israel sends out dud bombs and makes calls before firing at civilian-heavy spaces that are sheltering bombs and missiles. That is UNHEARD OF in wars, ESPECIALLY if the intent is to “kill as many Palestinians as possible.”
There are photos and videos of the IDF clearing way for Palestinians to evacuate Gaza at the beginning of this war. That is not the act of people with the intent to “kill as many Palestinians as possible.”
When Israel was attacked on October 7th, when people were murdered in cold blood, raped, beheaded, and set on fire for merely existing, on a Jewish holiday, in their homes and at music festivals, they did not fire back immediately. If you recall, they gave Gazans a 24-hour warning to leave. People cried out, “That’s not enough time!” And you know what? They waited. Before firing back against a broken ceasefire and an attempted genocide of THEIR PEOPLE, Israel issued a public warning and waited 48 hours before firing back ONCE. THAT is NOT the act of people with the intent to “kill as many Palestinians as possible.”
The truth of the matter is that we know how much foreign aid Israel receives. Israel had the ability to construct The Iron Dome. They have all the resources they need in terms of a military. If they WANTED to “kill as many Palestinians as possible,” they could. They could blow it all up tomorrow.
NOBODY WANTS THAT.
We don’t WANT Palestinians to die. We don’t WANT civilians killed. We don’t WANT hospitals destroyed. WE DO NOT WANT TO FIGHT.
If the conflict in the Middle East was easy to fix, it wouldn’t be a problem. It wouldn’t have been the butt of every joke for decades. There would be no conflict.
Jews and Muslims are peaceful people. We understand each other so well. We do not want to fight. And Gazans know that. And Israelis know that. Speak to people there. Go there. And speak to them. Not through social media. Go and speak to them. I don’t mean “put yourself in a war zone.” This isn’t a threat. I mean, go and speak to them yourself, don’t allow the algorithm and filters to make the decision for you. Eliminate the possibility of being catfished and misled. Talk to them yourself. They don’t want to fight. None of them want to fight. I promise you.
What’s my problem?
My problem is that people keep making my posts about antisemitism and double standards about something they’re not about, therefore enforcing the very point I’m trying to make. My problem is that people keep sending me threats and critiques on anon instead of saying things to my face. My problem is that when my friends and family were murdered in Israel and in Gaza, I was told that they “had it coming.”
My problem is that my grandfather fought so hard to come to America after saving his own mother from the concentration camps. He killed Nazis. He saved children. He saved his family. And then he fled to America for a better life. He joined the navy. He kept fighting until he knew his children would be safe. And now my father can’t even wear his yarmulke in public.
My problem is that my sister was punched in the face for being a Jew.
My problem is that someone was stabbed to death three blocks from my parents’ house in their own home because they were celebrating Chanukah.
My problem is that my cousin is celebrating his bar mitzvah in June, and if I tell people that I’m going to celebrate with him, they’ll never speak to me again. Because he was born in Israel.
My problem is that you don’t have the chutzpah to look me in the eye and tell me that Judaism is only ok the way you practice it, and antisemitism isn’t real because you don’t experience it the way I do.
My problem is that I want to live in peace with my Palestinian friends. And people like you don’t believe me.
And my biggest problem is that you’re not even gonna read this post.

Who gives a fuck what you feel as if you don't despise arabs and islam.
ah, you got me there anon 😔 you're right, I'm an Islamophobic Arabophobic asshole because I view them as people capable of thinking and making rational decisions instead of what we all know they ACTUALLY are: quirky desert people who drink sand and wear funny clothes and have to kill Israelis because they simply don't know any better!!!/s
in all seriousness I assume you're talking about me condemning Hamas because I literally haven't said anything against Palestinian civilians or civilians of any other Arab country (nor am I here). I'm not against Islam, I'm not against Arabs, I'm against an extremist terrorist group who wants me and my family dead. and it just so happens that this group is Muslim and Arab! You know how ProPals always insist criticism of the Israeli government isn't antisemitic (a true statement I wish they'd actually deliver on)? you're basically applying the opposite of that logic here. criticism of Hamas is Islamophobic because, well, they're Muslims! and not treating every Muslim as perfect human being capable of doing no wrong is Islamophobic, actually. istg the way you people talk about Muslims and Arabs is so utterly dehumanising. ever heard of the noble savage trope?
#don't even get me started on when people go “well hating jews is part of their religion it's part of their cultureee you have to respect it”#y'all will excuse anything problematic under islam because they're just that primitive in your eyes#i criticise muslims as i criticise people from any other religion. cry about it.#oh and btw anon off coward#noble savage trope#leftist antisemitism#hate ask adventures#hila answers asks

What’s your favourite thing/story about Prophet Muhammad ﷺ?
It's like asking a mother who's her favourite child 😅 Can there be anything in him, RasulAllah ﷺ that cannot be our favourite?
But for the sake of answering this ...
I think, the way RasulAllah ﷺ was perfect in every aspect of his life. How he played every role and responsibility very honestly with pure ihsan. Best slave of Allah subhanhuwata'ala, Best husband, best father, best friend, best leader, best at every single thing. And despite being so occupied and busy... He made sure everyone around him felt important, heard and attended to. He was soft and considerate. The way he was so concerned about the Ummah, he had nothing but love and mercy for the people of his Ummah. We talk a lot about high value men...this and that, but he was the epitome of graceful masculinity, gentlest yet the fierce against the enemies of Islam. Once one of his wives becomes jealous over the other wife, and overthrows the bowl of food presented to him, but nobody sees any trace of anger on his face, he picks up the dropped food, eats it. SubhanAllah. When he could pray against the people of Taif, he prays *for* their guidance and chooses to forgive. Where do we see such forbearance upon insult and humiliation from the whole city? If I could use all my life to explain how do I feel about RasulAllah ﷺ and his life and the events from his life, each one... It wouldn't be sufficient for me. Even if I live a hundred years talking. SubhanAllah. But Jazakallahu khayran katheerah for this ask. This is probably the first ask I've answered with immense awe in my heart...this made me miss RasulAllah ﷺ more. Alhamdulillah. May Allah grant us his close companionship in Jannah. Aameen.
Also, next month we will be starting the Seerah course in Urdu. Allahu Aalam if this ask is one more sign for me 😅

Is science culturally Christian?
It's culturally Jewish because Jews were out there making incredible scientific contributions while Christians were still figuring out germ theory, hope this helps :)
#kind of a hyperbole as a disclaimer obviously#but yes Jews and Muslims did have better hygiene during the late middle ages#and in fact during the inquisition it was said that jews and Muslims could be found because they smelled like perfume#hate anon#lol

hello, I'm also a young woman (currently catholic, i think) in a Christian country and after reading a book a friend recommended on islamic refutations of Christianity, I've started doubting that the church I grew up in is truly serving the work of God, because there's a lot that seems to not make sense in my own faith that does make sense in Islam. i have no idea where to start or what to do, what would you recommend?
Hello my dear!!🩷🩷🩷
Thank you so so much for sharing this with us and for trusting my advice!! It means a lot to me!
First of all it’s important for you to understand that every single path is unique, my journey might be completely different from yours and there’s no right or wrong way to get closer to Islam: for us, muslims, Allah is the only creator, the one who decides when and how to show you His truth.
Everything has been written by Allah Himself, so your friend giving you that book about Islam wasn’t just a coincidence: it was written. You reading that book and feeling the need to learn more about Islam wasn’t a coincidence: it was written. Allah is showing you the right path! And there’s nothing greater than this.
I would recommend to take it step by step. The first thing I did was talking to Allah: talk to him, tell him about your feelings, your fears and desires, even tho He already knows everything about you. Talking to Him directly will make you feel closer to His love.
Start learning the history of Islam: you can find endless videos on YouTube about the principles and values of our religion and the beautiful stories of our prophets. Follow muslim people online, so that the content you consume can be related to Islam and help you learn more and more about it. Start reading the Quran, but keep in mind it can be quite hard to approach it and fully understand it at first, so I would suggest starting to read it online, since most websites provide explanations to make it easier to understand.
You will see that once you take a step forward, everything will come together! Step by step!
On my blog you can find many posts, useful YouTube content links and interesting debates about different topics related to Islam, I hope it helps!
Please feel free to dm me whenever you want, there’s no “Silly” or wrong question to ask, I’d be more than happy to have a chat with you and support your journey!🩷
Have a blessed day and I wish you a wonderful new year darling, Allah loves you! Sending you a big hug🩷🩷🩷

With RedNote being popular, it’s a nice opportunity to have a great exchange of culture and languages. I wish it gets to stay as a Chinese app. We really need it especially when every media and how we perceive the world is often US-centric.
We often miss out on a lot of stuff from other countries. I also wonder how Viv and her stans would fare on the app if they were to try it. They’d be like those foreigners who hop into a different country and demand everyone speak English.
When people plan on migrating to a different platform, they should think of it like moving to a different country and consider whether they’re suited there. What are the pros and cons? What kind of culture and people live there? Will you be able to adapt to it?
For example, I’d tell them don’t just move over to Tumblr and expect to get popular through likes or followers (instead we get engagement through reblogs). People often expect everything to cater to them without putting in the work and using the right tools to moderate their online experiences.
They need to understand it’s not discriminatory to have certain topics banned in other platforms like LGBTQ+ themes, politics, sexual content, etc. They need to respect the norms and rules of that place. It’s like moving to Dubai and accusing them of homophobia because their religion doesn’t accept gay people (they’re a Muslim country, not America for god’s sake 🤦🏻♀️!).
So I am realizing I didn't finish my thought about RedNote. Please allow me to try again.
Thank you for the ask by the way, I felt this was connected to a Reblog that sparked my interest in needing to clarify it by Haru-Kuneko
Firstly, let's talk about Algorithms. Because we have been ruled by them for a little under 20 years. And GenZ is the generation who is most impacted by algorithms so far. Gen Alpha is not looking good. And the reason for that is because algorithms are woefully misunderstood by laymen.
Curating an online experience through algorithms wasn't designed for you or I to have a superior experience, it was designed to keep us on these apps and websites. They don't just give you more content that is similar to what you like, they trap you in that content and create the echo chamber. Part of the algorithm is intentionally designed to induce rage engagement for the sole purpose of reaffirming your existing algorithmic beliefs. It is designed to keep you engaged with the intent of putting you in a box. Your engagement, your attention, is the product they are buying and selling.
This has led to a drastic increase in internet tribalism and, just as capitalism has an end stage, so does algorithmic thought. With younger people who have never experienced an internet of their own interests, being force fed their beliefs and views that are reinforced by their communities they didn't necessarily choose. Algorithms take away from the act of critically thinking, and has pushed us past tribalism to Deindividuation.
(This video covers misinformation and disinformation, but goes into Deindividuation at timestamp 7:40 if you want to skip to that part.)
And algorithms have replaced personalities for younger people, especially those impacted socially by the pandemic in 2020. They are prepackaged beliefs and values that were primarily created for consumerism and marketing that has now sold our young people identities.
So entering RedBook, these people are, for most likely the first time, experiencing an algorithm that wasn't designed for them the way western websites use them. China's collectivist culture is all about conformity and cooperation. Rage content is not allowed, discourse is not allowed. It is a fundamental threat to their society as their values are not about stoking tenuous perceptions of freedom through false choices and beliefs that are actually predisposed to you based on your race, gender, and sexuality.
It's more about fitting in and being approved of, something Americans are desperate for in this era. They are so lonely that China's social emphasis on community is a fresh spring. And that's a bit of the problem.
Last night my spouse was on RedBook and I watched some videos over her shoulder. It's beautiful to see people connecting with others they are realizing they had a subliminal prejudice against. The US government has done a great job of ruining their citizens in this way where they think they are so superior and above everything, which is reinforced by other western nations. It's the first time for most people that they are in a space where America is not idealized like it is in the West, and they are feeling a genuine human connection because of the amount of curiosity the Chinese users have for them.
They are feeling seen at a time where their government doesn't represent them or care about their beliefs.
And at the same time, some people are swinging far out of bounds to the opposite extreme. People who were once firmly of the belief that the US was superior to China are now saying how amazing and perfect China is, when it isn't. There are some serious issues in China, specifically about corruption and the mismanagement of funds. One vide we saw was about “Green Growth” and how China has created extensive solar farms and increased production towards renewable energy, except Green Growth has been shown to be extremely unproductive in reducing carbon emissions.
That isn't to just dunk on China. Obviously, the same issues are true in the United States as well. Neither is worse than the other, to be frank. But because we have lived in a world devoid of critical thinking, the thing I was concerned about is happening: The extreme pendulum swings.
And to be frank, these extremist perspectives are natural and I am not inherently criticizing them for what they are, it's a teenager's mentality as they are being exposed to new social rules and learning how to integrate into a community. This is how a teenager's brain is functioning in high school and why they are so volatile. I'm not here to judge. Just to note that this is a dangerous thing, objectively. It is dangerous, but also natural and even necessary.
But that's what I meant by “lacking Dialectics”. The inability to engage with two opposing things being true is a dangerous place to be in and makes it extremely easy to radicalize individuals. China is far from perfect, but it isn't worse than the United States. My concern is how this lack of Dialectics, paired with the inherent tunnel vision of social media and emotional volatility of our emotionally immature and stunted society can just as easily breed fanaticism for some Chinese social paradise that genuinely does not exist.
(As an aside, I linked Dialectics in my previous post and realized that it probably didn't make any sense or was just very difficult to understand. So this link is a YouTube video of some guy explaining it to make it easier. My apologies.)
I'm overall supportive of this, hoping that it can radically change people's views towards the world and global communities. I hope this moves moderates to be more progressive and people to be more tolerant of other ideas, values, and societies. I hope people will be more interested in listening to my Marxist ramblings now that Communism is more about funny memes and kind humans and not some scary oppressive government. But there is always a shadow when you stand in the light.
(Which, to be frank, China is not at all a reflection of Marxism or Marxist Communism. The working conditions there are not any better here and labor is still exploited and expendable. They really are no different than the US.)
Don't forget about the shadow is all I ask.
#anon ask#red book#crooked philosophy#crooked opinion#current events#just be careful out there#i generally agree with anon#but also understand all things can cause harm#banning the expression of different people due to religion is not any more valid than doing it from hate#it is one thing to be ignorant#its another to be dehumanizing#i think its silly to demand to be accepted as part of a group#when the terms and conditions state that you are not welcome#ie if you are muslim you cannot be gay#but saying you cannot exist because we are muslim is#yeah that's fucked up#discrimination under religion is still discrimination#dialectic philosophy#dialects#marxist ramblings#rednote

hey rem, I’m just curious, no judging—what’s the reason you left your religion? I found that you’ve been struggling more since you started to lose your faith, so I just wondered what made you take that decision?
Well, since you asked so kindly
I left my religion slowly, over a long time, for a lot of reasons.
The easiest one that most people accept is that I do t like Islam’s treatment of queer people, since being queer is a huge part of my identity and people are usually ready to accept that answer.
But it is not so cut and dry
The reason is that I do not believe in the concept of an all-powerful, all-knowing, and completely passionate and caring deity that presides over the universe.
If Allah exists, then he allowed a five year old child to be groomed and abused, by a man that styles himself as an Islamic Scholar, for almost nine years. He allowed that trauma to happen and allowed that man to die before he could face any justice for his crimes.
And for what? Because it’s part of his plan? If an omniscient and omnipotent being needs an innocent child to suffer like that for his plan to come to fruition, he is either not as compassionate as he claims or not as powerful as he claims.
People will tell me that he will burn in Jahannam for eternity for his crimes, but why was the crime allowed to happen at all?
Do you know why Muslims pray five times a day? The Quran tells the story, saying that on the night of Al Isra wal Miraj, the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) ascended to Jannat (heaven) and was able to speak to Allah, who told him that every Muslim was to pray to him 50 times a day. He accepted, and as he descended through the layers of heaven, the prophet Musa (Moses, peace be upon him) told him to go back up and negotiate it lower. 50 to 45 to 40 and so on until it went to 5. That’s why there are five daily prayers.
What sort of God is so egotistical that he needs every single believer to pray to him 50 times a day to prove they love him? If he is all knowing, why start with 50 and not just command it be 5? Why do you need 5 at all? Why do you need people to constantly tell you that they love you?
I have my own religious trauma, from things taught in classes to the fucking pedophile calling himself a priest who came to my home 90 minutes a day 6 days a week for 8 and a half years, who was too religious to celebrate a birthday or let anyone else do so but apparently not enough to avoid abusing children
There are many arguments to be made about why I dislike Islam, most of them can be boiled down to something someone or the other will argue to be “misinterpretations of the text” or “a cultural thing” or “personal choice”
But in the end, at my core, I do not believe in the concept of a perfect, unerring God. The “Perfect” god of Islamic and Christian faith, insofar as I have seen, has allowed untold carnage, depraved abuse, and unspeakable violence to occur with the promise that one day, if you’re good, if you follow the rules, and pray every day, things will eventually, some day, somehow, turn out fine.
I respect Muslims. I respect Christians. I respect every single religion and every person of faith because I believe they all want to be good and do good because I think that is the nature of humanity. Who they choose to attribute that good to is none of my concern. I believe that everyone is human before they are their religion. Neither goodness nor badness can be attributed to a religion. They all have supremacists and extremists and people that will give their lives away trying to do good and make the world a better place. But if a god comes and declares that they are responsible for all of that, including the bad, and are just letting it happen for “divine purpose”? I reserve the right to question that.
And for the record, sweetheart, I am not suffering more since I’ve left my religion. I’ve been suffering the same for a very long time, and it’s only now that I’m in college, away from home, that I’m getting the space to process all of it. And sometimes things have to get worse before they get better. Right now it’s just worse than usual because the holiest month of the Islamic year is about to start, and it is always tough on me.

Wasn't the screenshot messages of black people on tiktok saying that they will start eating at McDonald's etc made to show that colonized people in the imperial core too have power over those who are at the imperial periphery?
Anon, sellouts exist in every group-including oppressed groups. Including those under imperialist rule
This is not new information guys, I shouldn't have to baby feed you this
Anyways, where were you when white people all over the world were making the "Haitians eating your pets" memes?
#anon#every black person here already told these folks they were being stupid and drinking the kool-aid#my thing is why arent you concerned for muslim americans here that are under threat because they stand to not support a genocide?

Just an addition: Muslim men are als treated as inherently dangerous and threatening. They're treated like fucking garbage, not for the same reasons muslim women are, but they are absolutely treated like shit. Transitioning from a woman to a masc presenting non binary person has shown me how cruelly yet different people treat muslim women/Muslim men (and people they perceive as such). I am seen as dangerous and volitile, even my Arabic name is taken as a threat. I do not feel any safer being seen as a Muslim man then I did as a Muslim woman.
Muslim men are always left behind when danger comes, and the first to be pointed the finger at when shit goes down. I've seen so many times people move to the other side of the road just bc of a single fucking man minding his own goddamn business. Seriously, it's disgusting, I'm so sorry you've to go through that.
Solidarity with you, my friend, and I hope you've a good weekend 🫂

Cats are considered pure animals in Islam, and personally i was raised to always respect and love cats; while other animals werent included in that. My father was quite harsh with our childhood dog, but never so with our cat. Although loving cats isnt a Muslim-exclusive thing obviously, i just thought it was pretty interesting how he doesnt rlly give a fuck abt any other animal, just cats.
Context.
Yeah that makes sense. I wouldn’t say Killer is harsh with other animals, given that he very clearly prefers the company of animals over people and perhaps finds it easier to bond and connect with animals, but he also seems to share a bit of special connection and perhaps even a kinship with cats that he seems to seek out their company more than most animals. (And definitely a lot more than people lmao.)

which egg would treat the masjid shoe racks as their own personal shoe store (because we cant wear shoes inside the masjid we put our shoes on a shoe rack outside the door and SOMETIMES you can get your shoes stolen, so its like a meme where ppl take pictures of the shoe racks and post them with the captions like "going shoe shopping")
Ramadan mubarak! (Sorry that this is so late in the season)
