There is minimum number of posts that are subjected to Mod approval (eg 25 nos.) at SC. This has been noted that a SC member has just joined and has sent only one post. But he has used a bulk of emojis (ie Like) for a particular SC member in so short time after joining. This should be noted and if it is considered necessary then a minimum post limit may also be applied before using the bulk of emojis in the thread. The link is provided below: https://www.shiachat.com/forum/profile/224567-debate-follower/ wasallam

The “HaHa” reaction is appropriate for posts intended to be funny and lighthearted, like the Poor Jokes topic. However, it has been noticed that it's sometimes used by members to mock serious posts of others who have different opinions. This is not appropriate, and members should use “Disagree” instead. If a member does this rarely, the reaction on that post can be removed by an admin with no further disciplinary action. If a member does it repeatedly, there could be a warning. However, if this becomes too widespread, then the reaction may be removed altogether from the site, and nobody will be able to use it.

Salam, I have DuckDuck Go browser and it blocks trackers when I visit ShiaChat. Can ShiaChat verify all the trackers that come to this site? Are you able to block them from tracking you? We live in the era of AI and I want to keep my business and information private. Does ShiaChat voluntarily give out information to Silicone Valley or do they get money from them and sell information about users? What about governments and intelligence agencies? Please be honest about your policies. I believe it is our right to know before we sign up to the message board. I'd appreciate these questions to be addressed. --Live and Fly Free--

Salam everybody, Another day, another rant. This time about this site itself. Why is this site so bloated? I did a network test on the site the other day, and the average page loads 6MB of data!! And even if I connect to an internet connection with a stronger badnwidth the site is still loading for too long. And what kind of front-end application is this site running? As soon as I press enter on the url, the CPU-fans start turning lol. Anyway, I know this site has existed for very long, but it's a new era, you guys. With the tech that we have nowadays stuff like this should not be happening. Thanks for reading my moronic rant.

(bismillah) (salam) A quick announcement so that folks be clear on an important issue. As folks should already know (and common sense dictate anyhow) once a member has been banned, this is not an invitation for them to go ahead and create a new account under a new username. Some individuals however don't seem to get that point, and will repeatedly attempt to come back under new aliases. It often isn't too hard to spot the offender though, and for an admin to then ban them. However, it results in an annoying cycle of ban, re-register, ban again, and so on, much to our chagrin and to the detriment of the forum's quality (after all, there's a reason they were banned in …

l came back to SC and the entire forum is skewed? Everything is oversized and in some kind of linear format? l cannot do or go anywhere without skrolling through 'miles' of stuff. Never mind. l did the old-guy's routine --scream, curse, bang the table-- and the settings for Opera came up and l clicked the zoom-down. Back to normal.

Why am I on this site? I would like to share why I visit the site and maybe some of my friends here could respond with their motivations and reasons. It will be interesting to find out something more about each other. I have come to this site as a person who follows Jesus. I have lived for most of my life with Muslim friends, neighbours and colleagues. I believe in this life we are on a journey and finding companions for the road is really important. As we travel together, we talk and share our experiences and perspective. We rejoice in commonalities and become richer through sharing differences. We exchange our understanding of “truth” and “reality…

Is there no way of limiting the length of posts on this website? It ruins a thread when you have someone copy and pasting enough material to fill a small book into a single post. At the very least, I think there should be a site rule on this, and moderators should issue warnings. The same goes for people who use ridiculously big font (usually because they have copy and pasted from somewhere else).

I have noticed that most members of shiachat are not actively talking part in discussion. I feel patrons and moderators of shiachat should take note of it. And they should make discussion fruitful and goal oriented so that everyone will remain interested in it. One more thing there might be some mechanism which help in reaching the conclusion or logical end of discussion. So that any quuestion should have some meaningful conclusion based authentic and unbiased standards.

Assalamu Alaikum, This site has been a great blessing, the people involved in it are great, the community, everything! Alhamdulillah through this community so many of my questions have been answered (Not just directly but also through other people asking similar questions). Like at so many times, i felt like losing hope only for it to be revived almost instantaneously. You guys mashAllah are very knowledgeable, and through you guys Allah has helped me. InshAllah, you will be able to have the same impact on me to other Shias around the world looking for answers. Jazakum Allah

Salam Alaikum, I understand that some people don't want to make their name changes public, but here is an idea that might work. People who change their names can publicly state their wish here, as well as their reasons for doing so. This will also help other users keep track of who those members are, and make the connection with the old name. What led to making this thread, is my own wish to change my name from: 313 Seeker --> Allah Seeker Rationale: For some reason I feel that looking for the 313 is not the highest purpose possible in comparison to searching for Allah. ideally I'd like to change it to Allah's Face Seeker in Arabi…

Salam, Hope you all are making the most out of Ramadan and these nights of Laylatul Qadr Insha Allah. I just wanted to share my thoughts based on my experience so far in Shiachat. Again, these are simply my experiences and I want to know if anyone here can relate. At the end of the day we have to grow and gain closeness to Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى). I want to be very honest. (1) Online forums are a place for support and growth. Alhumdulillah it's a blessing that this site was created for like-minded individuals to connect and grow together. It provides that sense of community for Shias all around the world. It's a great place for important soc…

So today, Thursday, l found another willful deletion about voter lD: The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in October, sufficiently well before the program aired, that Alabama's photo lD requirement did not violate anyone's rights under the 14th and 15th Amendments. lt also characterized the plaintiff's suits in a wording approximating "frivolous".

Hi Guest OnPoint, Quote from your post: To make it even further clear and no doubt that Jews and Christians are not to judge by their religion and that they aren't allowed to, it says, believers not to take the Christians and Jews as authorities as some of them are that to each other. What is meant by authorities is not political here, it means, regarding the Torah and Gospels and laws, and God's moral judgement not to take Christians and Jews as an authority to what it says in those books. In response, I had quoted 'what it says in the Books,' --- it says in Surah 5:44 It was We (God) who revealed the law (to Moses): therein was ‘guidance and light.’ 5:46 And in their footsteps We (God) sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was ‘guidance and light,’ The two things I mentioned as the core teaching of the Torah is the Ten Commandments. --- And for the Gospels, the first part of ‘The Sermon on the Mount,’ which continues for 3 chapters. --- I could show you one thing that Jesus corrected in the Pharisees’ teaching of the commandment on love, in Matthew 5:20 Jesus said, “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ --- 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.” --- There is no place in the Torah that says you should ‘hate your enemy.’ But that is what had been taught, which allowed the Pharisees to ‘hate’ who, or what, they didn’t like, and this also would allow neighbors who had a disagreement, to ‘hate’ one another. --- Consider how the Pharisees hated Jesus, and later the disciples. Jesus said, Love your enemies or adversaries, and love your neighbors. --- When Jesus was asked by a lawyer “Which was the Great Commandment?” He answered in Matthew 22:37 “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” --- And this too is 'written in the Book' and is meant for Christians to live by. -
You are now in the life you have because of different reasons: your parents decisions, help or not help by relatives, injustice done to you, choice(s) you made yourself, random events you have no control over, etc. It would be haram to make a clone live your life so you could get away. That is pure fantasy. Make better choices, live your life in a meaningful way, ask Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) to help you, make duas, remember the Ahlul Bayt AS. Pray. A lot. You can do this. Do the best you can.

Hi Abdul-Hadi, Quote from your post: How would you account for the writings of Paul who turned Jesus ((عليه السلام)) into a divine figure or are these not what are counted as the scriptures in Islam? What I mean by this is, is only the actual teachings of Jesus ((عليه السلام)) like the Sermon on the Mount and the red letters of the Gospels rather than the entirety of the four gospels themselves? I come out of a Christian family background, so I'm used to the entirety of the Bible (old and new testaments as per the Ukrainian Orthodox church) being treated as the "inspired word of God ((سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى))" This assumption that Paul exalted Jesus is not correct. Jesus was human, but without sin, so that He could be the perfect sacrifice for sinful man. --- Something to notice since you are familiar with the New Testament is that in the Gospels the name is written, 'Jesus Christ,’ and the focus was on Jesus, as He is the one who could be seen. But Christ spoke the wisdom of God through Him, in the same way that the Holy Spirit can speak through some Christians today. --- However, After the crucifixion the names changed, as Jesus went to heaven to become a High priest, ‘After the order of Melchizedek,’ as it says in Hebrews 7:20 And inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath 21 (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not relent, ‘You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek’”). 22 By so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant. 23 Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing. 24 But He (Jesus), because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. In the letters of Paul you will notice that after he gives a greeting in the name of Jesus Christ he quickly changes to Christ Jesus, or Christ alone. --- Because it was Christ who came down from heaven to ‘indwell’ Jesus, as the Holy Spirit indwells some Christians today. --- But when Jesus went to heaven the emphasis was on Christ. --- Jesus was born to be our Savior. --- But Christ was sent to be our Redeemer, and the King of the Jews, through whom the Gospel was given. Are you familiar with Paul’s writing in 1 Corinthians 15? --- 15:3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures, 5 and that He was seen by Cephas (Peter), then by the twelve. 6 After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep (in death). And it continues in 21 “For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all (believers) shall be made alive. 23 But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s at His coming. 24 Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. 25 For He (Christ) must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. --- 28 Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son (Christ) Himself will also be subject to Him (God the Father) who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.” --- Where was Jesus? He was already in His permanent position in heaven as the High Priest in the heavenly Sanctuary, there to make intercession for us. Hebrews 8:1-2. Check it all out and let me know what you discover.
