Any hafiz ex muslim here?

My dad messed up my studies in the US and sent me to Pakistan at the age 10, spent 5 years there and memorized the entire quran when I was 14, while there, these "moulvis" they beat the shit out of me, tried to sexually abuse me multiple times, there have been many instances like that, I didn't realize what was happening to me until I was 13 years old, I feel like I got lucky, unlike other kids who couldn't get away from the sexual abuse, my so called "ustadji" and imam both sexually abused me and I was too afraid to tell anyone, especially my father because it was imprinted in my brain that I needed to memorize this book so my parents can wear a crown or a cloak made of gold. When I was a little older and understood what was happening, I told my dad im gonna memorize this entire quran, and then I want to go back to the states, he agreed, so the next year I grinded hard and finally got the hell outta that place.

If there are any parents here reading this, DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS TO THE MADRASA, please

Finally watched Ek Villain 2

Watched the first one when it came out. First one is obviously better, but the second one isn't bad either, id give it a 6.5/10

Disha and Tara were great, they nailed their roles

However, John and Arjuns acting was a bit....bland...John was still better than arjun, but i feel like when it a serious movie, John has the same facial expressions, but arjun kapoor man, I don't wanna say anything negative..but i don't know how he got the movies he did, is it him? Or is it the writing? He could be so much better

Learning about religion(s) without outside voices in my ears

When you log into twitter, a lot of people talk crap about each other, they accuse each other's religion of being violent, so me (not a religious person) decided to do some research of my own. I like researching and learning, this will be a great journey.

Born and raised in the US but was never religious, parents are super religious, and myself, I do believe that there is something and I hoping to figure out what that is, in my experience i have never met a person who tried to tell me about their religion (other than jehovas witness) and one muslim preacher...who didnt even speak English, dude had a IRL google translator.

I will be reading without bias and without judging a faith based on the actions of its followers,

EDIT: already had 2 people message me to buy stuff, spoiler, im not

This is just one the reasons I left

Born and raised in a Pakistani household, with the stereotypical super religious dad,

Man o man I could go on and on and on about the issues I have with this faith

But honestly, I wanna put it behind me and move on to find happiness

Im proud of my Pakistan heritage, but I hope one day Pakistan isnt ran by fanatics and p3d0s

Sunni and Shia

I know this will be a controversial topic, but I have to ask:

Why Sunni and not Shia?

Majority of muslims are Sunni, and next sentence will be a controversial one but....almost all terrorist attacks are by sunnis, compared to Shia, the shia people (to my knowledge) have not committed terrorist acts, there are many Sunni nations and none of them stand up to israel for Palestine and Lebanon....soooo why aren't their more Shias?

From what we've seen, Shias are the ones doing the right thing and fighting for justice ....​

question for finance majors

as someone who is taking the BSCS program, i was and am always curious about finance, stocks, financial law, hedge funds, trading etc.

I was wondering does the Finance degree at WGU teach any of it? and is the material useful enough to teach about financial decisions and even help land an interview at a financial company or a FinTech company

I CONQUERED C960

Start: 04-24

End: 06-08

By far the most difficult class I've taken, you wanna make sure to pass this class on your first attempt because the retake check list is awful.

RESOURCES THAT HELPED

Only reason i completed the zybooks is because i had to for 2nd attempt.

Learning math by reading sucks

Someone posted videos from a professor james weson, he covers ​MOST of the zybooks and also does examples that really helped out. I made a Playlist of all the videos he teaches, should out to who ever posted this originally BTW, you're a hero​

James Wenson zybook videos

after watching this i watched all the videos here:

Helpful videos for c960

afterwards I watched every single video by the instructors, they can be found on WGUConnect, these videos were EXTREMELY HELPFUL, especially with euclid algorithm and extended euclid algorithms.

I also went on discord and downloaded all the ti-84 programs:

Ti-84 Programs

calculator programs were really helpful for stars and bars, mods, RSA, Binomial, base conversions, ones digits, multiplicative inverse, and RSA encryption n decryption questions, but here's the catch, you gotta actually learn where everything goes, and make sure you plug in everything right, if you know how to do that, number theory chapter will be a cake walk

Last thing I did was copy every single question for the unit Worksheets, PA, and end of chapter review forms, pasted into Gemini (i have gemini pro through Verizon), and told Genimi to explain how to solve this question, and give me 5 more questions like this, multiple choice,

Again, this class was a beast, I wasted first 3 weeks by watching videos and not actually doing any of the work....u gotta follow along

I hope this helps someone out

EDIT: more like, I survived c960

AITA for threatening the older guy whose been messaging my underage niece?

so i just found that my niece has been talking to an older guy, when i found out, i looked him up, found out where he worked, what place of worship he went to, i made a burner account on one of those text apps and texted the guy and told him straight up if he messages any under age girls ill send his info to the local facebook community page and expose him and his family and also call the cops, i just got back home and saw my niece crying and people consoling her, and treating like she did nothing wrong, but i didnt see it that way, ive been alive long enough to know pxdophiles do not deserve any mercy but somehow it was my fault because i didnt give them a chance to end it properly, my niece is fucking 16, shes really smart and i wasnt gonna allow her to ruin her life over some pxdo adult.
