It could be a max sentence or a condition of his probation. I remember when this happened a few years ago, it is an actual event.

>>36856

>vandalism

Hate crime vandalism is treated differently than regular vandalism I assure you.

>>36856

>This is fake news

Except that it's a matter of public record with the Fort Smith, AL courts. "Fake News" can't fake court records. Alabama has very strict hate crime laws ever since the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing. Stop riding /pol/'s dick.

>>36861

Public record? Source needed. I honestly looked but couldn't find anything open to the public.

I would put money on it this is fake. People do not go to jail for six years for vandalism. That's more than battery or armed robbery, which are far more serious crimes.

>>36878

Vandalism of a place of worship in Alabama is a felony. Six years is not unusual for a felony.

Shia is Da Vinci code tier and they have a priest class who tells you ‘secrets’ about the Quran and you have to pay them money every year. Shia are a small percentage of muslims that only have some power because 500 years ago Iran was forcibly converted from Sunni Islam by a ruler.

>>36558

>Shia are a small percentage of muslims

I wouldn't say 20-25% is "small".

>>36560

12’ers are like 10%.

The rest are a couple percentage points.

Beware of people trying to bait into joining their cult and getting a taweez (magic)

Don't be a cultist

Red is zakat, blue is UK income tax. Dotted is the wealth gap at a given age, in the picture it's comparing a person earning ~250000 vs ~1250000. Solid is the actual wealth a person with the specified salary accumulates over their lifetime.

>>36302

>Are you a mathematician by any chance?

No, I got some help from internet people.

>I don't know about the math behind zakat so can't correct you but I'm wondering where you got those equations for zakat.

After each year 2.5% of your total wealth is taken as zakat, this means that the function that progresses this is:

change_in_wealth(year) => earning-weath(year)*(tax/100)

Since this is a rate of change we have to solve a derivative in order to get the amount of wealth at any given point, and that's what gives you the equation in the graph.

>other muslims

>>36255

I am a Muslim. Been on this board for a few years. You aren't pointing to a statement that isn't true, because there aren't any. I'm sorry you hate Christians so much. Umar Ibn al-Khattab once had a Christian servant that he trusted so much that he wanted to appoint him as a governor in one of the provinces, but the Christian servant refused to accept Islam.

>>36257

Sometimes Umar Ibn al-Khattab RA would surprise his governors by showing up unannounced. He would find someone else to ask permission to enter the governor’s home, then all of a sudden Umar Ibn al-Khattab in his house. If he found that the governor had a rug or cloth hanging on the wall, he would tear it down. Umar would ask how many poor Muslims could be clothed with it, instead of having it hung on the governor’s wall as a decoration. The governors would have the money that they owned placed into a kind of trust when they accepted the position. While they were governor, they would receive a salary as subsistence to cover their basic needs, but by the time they were done in their position it would be set up so they didn’t save any money while they were governor, and they would get back the money they originally placed in a trust. People placed in governmental positions received little to no actual benefit from being placed there. Umar also forbid his governors from having physical hard doors on their homes. One Governor lived next to the market and had a door installed because the noise of the market was bothering him. Umar had that door removed.

>>36261

Umar RA was especially picky about who he appointed as governor. One person who he was considering for the position of governor, he tested him by giving him commands to travel back and forth, over and over again, in a way that was very physically exhausting. He did this for most of the day just to see if the person would follow his orders, no matter how strange they were.

Once while he was travelling in one of the provinces, a man came up to Umar and said that he had been caught drinking alcohol. The governor not only had him lashed, but had him publically humiliated and told everyone in the area to boycott him. The man said that didn’t know what to do and he was considering leaving the lands of the Muslims. Upon hearing this, Umar, with tears in his eyes, gave him all the money he had and told him that in the time of Jahilliyah he too drank alcohol. He told him to go to a different area and then he sent a serious warning to that governor.

is gum haram for muslims on ramadan even if you don't swallow?

>>36212

No, but if you want all of your saliva gone then go ahead.

It's all well and good asking people to stop buying something but what do they replace it with? And just generally how do we stop putting ourselves under the foot of large corporations with dubious morals?

>inminds.com

site run by hypocritical rafidhi. Don't fall for their filthy scams.

>>35957

There are plenty of other alternatives that can be bought. Boycotting these companies have been absolutely easy for me and I don't think it would be much of a inconvenience for others. Large corporations won't stop pushing their agenda until we answer with our wallets.

>>35958

Really? Well, their information seems to be reliable. Try the BDS then? It's pretty reputable.

>>35957

Often, there are plenty of other, better alternatives that you can find with a bit of research.Don't fall for market manipulation; for example, many people don't even know that anyone other than intel makes cpus.

OP here

>>34102

>>34239

honestly I understand why they feel that way. my parents had a very unhappy marriage and are divorced now. I'm also really cautious about it partly for that reason, and also because I want to fall in love one day and I don't want an arranged marriage for that reason. I don't think waiting is a bad thing, but I want to learn to control myself until then. I think exercise might be a good help actually though.

>>34516

the reason i say my problems are caused by porn is because I am failing as a man. My motivation to work hard and physical strength are low and I am easily tempted. I feel that if I could break my addiction I would be an all around better person. I do feel when I do keep myself busy like you said and don't do it I feel better and I am more motivated, but staying off is hard

>>34517

temptation is a bitch

>>34532

what do you mean about "disassociation"? tell me more

>>35821

This is very true. My wife and I love each other very much, but there is a pragmatism to our marriage. We know each other, we have the same view on children and raising them, we have the same view on religion. "Love" is a very good starting point, but it can't be everything.

>>34073

You must make a mental decision to simply stop looking at it.

It's good to understand that it is harmful to you, both physically, emotionally and spiritually in the long-term.

>>34073

You must stop seeking porn for as long as you can, once you cave in try to extend the time period you went without porn.

Repeat at infinitum.

>>35860

Treat it like you are weening yourself off a drug like heroin.

Dont jerk it for one day. Then try two. By the time you make it to a month or so it will be a new habit

Whereas in the past they'd censor Islamic books as "heresy" it's now done as "terrorism". Different word but same reality.

>>36146

They'll probably try to censor things that trigger them like the command to call people by their fathers' names, since france is a nation of bastards and spawns of cuckolds.

MUHSIN KHAN AND ANYONE TRYING TO DIFFER IS A HUGE ☻

https://www.quranite.com/

>>35975

Anyway, all the infighting aside, I'll answer your question.

Qur'an cannot be translated. It can only be interpreted. That's something to know up front. There are no actual translations of Qur'an, only interpretations of Qur'an in other languages. To truly understand Qur'an, you have to learn the language of Qur'an. Since you're Christian, you might understand that as being needing to truly understand Greek in order to understand the New Testament.

If asked, I usually defer to the Arberry interpretation of Qur'an for beginners. It's not perfect, but it's easy to understand for English speakers and is a great starting point. There's a link in the sticky. However, this is a question that if you ask 100 Muslims, you will get 100 different answers.

Cleaning up the thread now to remove off topic content.

>>35975

Study Qur'an by Nasr has commentary included and is probably the most recent translation.

This program turns ebooks into audiobooks and works really well if you have a good synthetic voice to use with it. Windows 10 comes with one of the best synthetic voices I have come across.

That's not really an Islamic book.

The author is part of the nation of islam which are kuffar, this is not an islamic book.

>>31707

Dr. Na'im Akbar is a Sunni Muslim and specifically apart of Warith Deen Muhammad's school.

He WAS apart of the NOI prior to entering al-islam.

His books deal with psychology of american ignorance and the african-american experience.

Calling a Muslim kuffar is kuffar in itself astaghfirullah.

There is no chosen people or promised land in Islam, everything on Earth is for Muslims and every Muslim is equal

'Iyad b. Him-ar reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), while delivering a sermon one day, said:

Behold, my Lord commanded me that I should teach you which you do not know and which He has taught me today. (He has instructed thus):

The property which I have conferred upon them is lawful for them. I have created My servants as one having a natural inclination to the worship of Allah but it is Satan who turns them away from the right religion and he makes unlawful what has been declared lawful for them and he commands them to ascribe partnership with Me, although he has no justification for that.

And verily, Allah looked towards the people of the world and He showed hatred for the Arabs and the non-Arabs, but with the exception of some remnants from the People of the Book. And He (further) said: I have sent thee (the Holy Prophet) in order to put you to test and put (those to test) through you. And I sent the Book to you which cannot be washed away by water, so that you may recite it while in the state of wakefulness or sleep.

Verily, Allah commanded me to burn (kill) the Quraish. I said: My Lord, they would break my head (like the tearing) of bread, and Allah said: You turn them out as they turned you out, you fight against them and We shall help you in this, you should spend and you would be conferred upon. You send an army and I would send an army five times greater than that. Fight against those who disobey you along with those who obey you. The inmates of Paradise are three: One who wields authority and is just and fair, one who Is truthful and has been endowed with power to do good deeds. And the person who is merciful and kind hearted towards his relatives and to every pious Muslim, and one who does not stretch his hand in spite of having a large family to support.

And He said: The inmates of Hell are five: the weak who lack power to (avoid evil), the (carefree) who pursue (everything irrespective of the fact that it is good or evil) and who do not have any care for their family or for their wealth. APost too long. Click here to view the full text.

That is one of my most favorite things to tell my brothers.

Every Muslim is not equal you murjiah retard. Piety is the determining factor of someone being superior or not.

That is some greek larpery right there.

If you wanna quote prophet saws then quote prophet saws.

I like how everyone's talking about the image instead of the article. This guy is a legend. I wish there were more like him; folks who choose to learn and understand instead of hate. !سبحان الله

>>35902

There is a video on the CBS youtube channel about this guy. Guy is class.

>>35936

I don’t think we get actual psychopaths like the christian David Wood.

This guy is simply what the US military produces. If we were fighting Communists in Vietnam he would have become obsessed with Communists, etc.

>>35936

We can only know a person's actions, while only God can know a person's heart. If he says he has converted and even gone so far as to act in the role of imam for his masjid, I see no reason for anything other than praise and thanks to God for guiding another lost soul onto His straight and true path.

I meant keep the pension percentage of budget the same. So if with 50m workers pensions are 30% of budget (5bn), when there are only 25m workers you keep 30% which is now down to 2.5bn. They had a duty to be fruitful and multiply, now they pay for their hedonism!!! I am so glad they will have to pay. I hate boomers so much.

>>35713

I am ready for a nice white christian vs white christian war. Been WAAAAY too long. I am getting sick of how they only attack weak muslim countries.

>>35753

Majority of Christians have nothing to do with Islam or Islamic countries, they live in South America, Africa and pacifist European countries.

Only former UK colonies and France actually do anything.

>>35755

Idc about South America. I want white christians to fight again to take the stress off Muslims. We need relief. And I ask Allah to end the white supremacist unity of those who wish us harm.

>>32558

They certainly were. Remember what happened to them?

>>35825

I have quite a strong personality so being mislead has never been an issue for me. I understand the importance of having good Muslim friends, but I'm quite weird (which I think is part of the reason why I have such a strong personality) so making any real friends, let alone Muslim ones, is quite hard.

>>35840

>That's an extremely arrogant statement, you will be influence by your friends and you are not infallible

Considering I refused to comply with people's ideas of normality and continue to do so even after being regularly attacked for it throughout secondary school, I think I can safely say that while I may have a number of flaws, the influence of others is not one of them.

>The prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) says you will be influenced by those kaffir friends

You're basing this off of a hadith that isn't even sahih.

>so get over your awkwardness and meet muslims, this is not optional.

I meet and speak to a number of Muslims, that's very different from being friends with them.

>>35844

>This one is sahih and says the same thing

They're really quite different.

>If your friends are kuffar and even worst degenerates and you don't even give dawah to them

Why would you assume I wouldn't give dawah to them? These are people I care for of course I don't want them in hell.

>>35844

I have a lot of non-Muslim friends, co-workers, and acquaintances myself. If you're weak, you will be influenced by peer pressure. I'm not weak.

>>35854

We aren't ignoring any evidence, it's just that none of your evidence corroborates your position.
