Thoughts (2010-2016) [ARCHIVE]

[Wahdat 1,640]

@Apo,you need to take care of yourself.Stress=Sickness.Allah tests us yes but there is a lot we can do to progress and stay healthy.

May Allah help you and you yourself.If u need something don't hesitate to ask me please.

 

can you list some?

[mina 4,818]

can you list some?

Healthy food and lifestyle in general,calming down the mind and enjoying the present moment and simple things in life. Helping others and make them smile,doesn't need much effort most of the time.A positive mindset also helps a lot.

Travelling,learning...

[Chaotic Muslem 5,780]

So I'm pre-diabetic too now. What on Earth is wrong with me? I'm sick 24/7 all through the year. I wish there were some magic pill I could take and get rid of all these ailments. I'm starting to think God definitely hates me - why else would he make me go through all this?

 

at times i wish some people would just drop dead. scum on Earth eating up its resources without making any contribution whatsoever to the lives of those around them or related to them. why does God let such filth populate this planet? why does God boast about heaven and hell and the hereafter when he can't do nothing to people literally ruining others' lives in the here and now? i'm finding myself going away from religion once again - too many questions that remain unanswered. 

pre DM isn't the end of the world.

1/3 of them back to normal

1/3 stay as pre DM 

1/3 progress to DM

 

To keep yourself in the first 2 categories, you need to take some positive steps in your life like:

1- Stay fit. Do sport and fitness exercises , aerobic and muscle stretching , walking, swimming and lifting heavy objects at the end. You can always join a Zomba dance group. It is fun and healthy

 

2- Put in trash everything that is canned. Start being health nut. Do all sorts of yummy salads, lebanese cuisine is rich with them. Start eating meat that is 100% Halal and if possible organic (some canned food may contain ingriednts from animal source, sometimes we cannot say if this animal was slaughtered in halal way, thus that product is deemed questionable in terms of halalness). Fresh from the farm. Avoid sugars, pastries , soft drinks , soda drinks, junk food, sugar free foods,  fast foods etc.

 

3-Eat starch , 3 all bran breads

 

Avoid low fat or no fat products.

avoid concentrated milk .

 

 

good luck.

Wise Choices:

- If you are right then there is no need to get angry. And if you are wrong then you don't have any right to get angry.

- Patience with family is love, Patience with others is respect. Patience with self is confidence.

- Never think hard about the past. It brings tears. Don't think too much about the future. It brings fear. Live this moment with Allah in ur consciousness (taqwa) and a smile.

-Every test in our life makes us bitter or better.Choice is ours.

Heard it in a lecture of Ostad Hassan Rahimpour Azghadi. I'm sure it's legit.

Is it from the same source that said Einstien died a muslim?

When I was in Iran one of the professor told us Ibn Taymiyya may have changed his mind about Shiism after meeting Allama Hilli but before he could write another book he was taken to jail and died.

I'm lonely...

How can you be lonely when there's 50+ of us here?  :dry:

when I'm alone in a room and have nothing to do, I just get lonely.

[Bakir 3,181]

when I'm alone in a room and have nothing to do, I just get lonely.

Then go out of the room xD. Being too much time alone isn't good xP. You can do a lot of things in your free time, find a hobby. For example, I'm investing my time lately into learning more about cooking. Not only you have a good time and even socialoze with the person that teaches you but you also can make peiple happy through tasty foods. And its one of the best feelings we can have xD.

Then get out of the room & do something, rather than sitting & complaining about being lonely, don't you think?

Lol you wouldn't expect that from Laith, he's the type of person that will sit down & ask people to make him a sandwich.

 

& You're making me hungry now talking about food, thanks Bakir.

[Islamic Salvation 3,207]

Just learned that Tolstoy died a Muslim. And that's... that's pretty cool.

“As far as the preference of Mohammedanism to Orthodoxy is concerned…, I can fully sympathize with such conversion. To say this might be strange for me who values the Christian ideals and the teaching of Christ in their pure sense more that anything else, I do not doubt that Islam in its outer form stands higher than the Orthodox Church. Therefore, if a person is given only two choices: to adhere to the Orthodox Church or Islam, any sensible person will not hesitate about his choice, and anyone will prefer Islam with its acceptance of one tenet, single God and His Prophet instead such complex and incomprehensible things in theology as the Trinity, redemption, sacraments, the saints and their images, and complicated services…”

Yasnaya Polyana, March, 15th, 1909

“I would be very glad if you were of the same faith with me. Just try to understand what my life is. Any success in life- wealth, honour, glory- I don’t have these. My friends, even my family are turning away from me.

Some- liberals and aesthetes- consider me to be mad or weak-minded like Gogol; others- revolutionaries and radicals- consider me to be a mystic and a man who talks too much; the officials consider me to be a malicious revolutionary; the Orthodox consider me to be a devil.

I confess that it is hard for me… And therefore, please, regard me as a kind Mohammedan, and all will be fine”.

are these for squeezing the every last bit of toothpaste from the tube??? I saw these in a magazine some years back and I often wish to have one or two now. No matter how many times I tell them the kids always squeeze the right from the middle.

[Ruq 6,264]

You know how Endless made that pic with SC on it and i suggested that we make it the logo? well wouldnt that be a fun thing to do on a regular basis? to get members to create 'Shia Chat' logo pictures (photos or graphics) and have weekly competitions to change the logo? or is that going to be too much trouble for the Admin?

 

(See, i told you i should be part of the development team)

Yes :) 50 thrifty points to you, although you would have got more if you use one. They work really well for me and it is somwhow so satisfying to get every last bit out of the tube.

[Soldiers and Saffron 6,753]

One of the things i learned from this iran trip is that i have been facing the wrong way when using the toilet all these times. You live and learn i guess.

What a great idea! Count me in, but the duration between the competitions should be longer, (ex: 1-3 months), because the admin may not have time to change the logo every week.

Khayr Al salat 3al Nabi, I was doing dishes and I heard a sound outside. My friend was over. (She used to wear hijab and removed her hijab after much harassment in Texas and elsewhere). I went outside to see what the sound was and I was a little scared and nervous. I saw a light moving around and heard something. It was a saqr, like a falcon. It was making this noise. I saw the lift again and *****(the girl) looks and says! A second moon. I look up and see the second moon. Then Allahu akbar the entire sky lights up with the solar system. I can't describe what I saw in words. All the solar system is shown to me. The second moon, the stars, they are all very clear.

Then Allah sub7ana wa ta3ala shows us in the sky all of our body's system, DNA, blood platelets, how the heart beats, how we function. All through these images in the sky. I said la illaha illa Allah, allahu akbar. We were shocked. No phones, no pictures, just watching this revelation. Then slowly the images start to go, as if was a huge screen showing us Allah's miracles through every day things that we don't think of. I can't describe it very well but it was so miraculous and felt so real. And I just woke up now. It's 3:06. AM

Bismehe Ta3ala,

Assalam Alikum.

Is anyone on shi3chat good at interpreting dreams? Just this once?

Salam,

 

mashAllah how beautiful, I use this when I feel a dream is meaningful: http://www.myislamicdream.com/

 

By Mohammad Ibn Siren, it is the translation of the Arabic book of dream interpretations by him. 

 

You have to search it by words though. 

 

Ma'salama :)

People keep making suggestions about how to improve the forum; but the current active admin cannot do much because the people who own this site and the ones who have access to the server are not active.

The group consists of 100 Shia members (mostly moms) discussing and sharing Islamic info about their next hajj-trip.
