Helix HB Lumbar Support Causing Back Pain After 30 Minutes — What Am I Doing Wrong?

Hi All,

I need some help. I bought the Helix HB chair about 15 days ago and started using it 5 days back. I had tried the chair at the showroom location, and it was super comfortable.

However, the one I received feels completely different. No matter how I adjust the lumbar support, I feel pressure in the center of my back, and it starts hurting after sitting for around 30 minutes. I have tried using it 2–3 times, with a day’s gap in between, and no matter what adjustments I make, I still experience the same issue. I am 170cm tall guy; adjust mid, low, and high position for lumbar; moved seat at different location, etc.

Can someone guide me on what could be causing this? Is there something I might be missing in terms of the chair setup or lumbar adjustment?

The worst part is that they don't accept returns once the chair is sold, which is a bit disappointing. I was aware of this policy when I purchased it, so that's on me. However, my experience at the showroom was very good, whereas the chair I received has been the worst chair I've used in my 11 years of experience.

Any suggestions on what I could try would be really appreciated.

A Muslim hawker was allegedly harassed in Kendrapara, Odisha, by a group led by a Bajrang Dal activist identified as Rahul Mandal. According to reports, the group accused the hawker of being a Bangladeshi and pressured him to chant “Jai Shri Ram.”

Translation:

Man: You will say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: Won't say.

Man: You will say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: Won't say.

Man: You will say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: You're demanding that I say Jai Shri Rama, eh?

Man: Yeah, why won't you say it?

Hawker: If I say it, you think I will turn into a Hindu?

Man 2: Oh-ho, just say the thing and we will be done.

Man: If you came to a Hindu area to trade, you will have to say Jai Shri Rama. (Claps) You will say Jai Shri Rama. You will say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: (Getting interrupted)

Man 3: Say Jai Shri Rama.

Man 2: There is no Musalman here.

Man 3: He is from the Allah party.

(Noises)

Man: (Clapping) (In Bengali) Does your Allah exist? Does your Allah exist? Your Allah is bricks. Your Allah is bricks. (In Odia) Say Jai Shri Rama. Say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: Should I say it once?

Man: Yes, say it once. Say Jai Shri Rama. Say Jai Shri Rama.

Hawker: Jai Shri Rama. (tries to start the bike)

Man: Say loudly. Jai Shri Rama (Punching the air)

Man 2: Jai Shri Rama.

Someone off camera: Don't do it excessively.

Man: (to someone behind) Hey, he won't say Jai Shri Rama, come out and check him out. Ok, move your vehicle. Take him to the police thana. Say Jai Shri Rama.

Man 3: Check his Aadhaar.

"Yogi Is India's Biggest Meat Trader, Not A Saint" Says Shankaracharya

Launching a blistering attack on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand claimed that the BJP leader should not be referred to as a “Sant,” arguing that a true saint embodies non-violence in thought and action. Speaking during his Gavishti Yatra focused on cow protection, the Shankaracharya alleged that Uttar Pradesh is responsible for nearly 50% of India’s meat exports and that, as Chief Minister, Adityanath oversees a system that grants licenses for animal slaughter. He asserted that millions of animals have been killed for export under the state’s administration and accused the CM of contradicting the values associated with sainthood. Calling Adityanath a “dhongi” and “pakhandi” (fraud and hypocrite), he warned that religious titles should not be used for politicians linked to what he described as a violent trade, insisting that wearing saffron robes alone does not make someone a saint.

Telegram CEO Paul Durov’s Opinion on the week-long ban on the app in India

India has temporarily banned Telegram for a week ahead of the NEET re-test, saying that the app was being used to spread leaked papers, fake question papers, and exam scams.

Telegram founder Pavel Durov responded by saying that banning Telegram because some users shared leaked exam papers punishes more than 150 million ordinary users in India. He also argued that the leaks have not stopped - they have simply moved to other apps.

The government’s view:

Telegram was reportedly being used by people selling leaked or fake exam papers.

With a major national exam approaching, the government wants to reduce cheating and misinformation.

The ban is temporary, not permanent.

Durov’s view:

Most Telegram users have nothing to do with exam leaks.

The real question is where the leak came from in the first place.

If someone inside the exam system leaked the paper, banning a messaging app does not fix that problem.

People who want to cheat can simply move to another platform.

To me, the biggest issue is that a platform can spread a leak, but it usually does not create the leak. If a paper was leaked before the exam, then someone with access to that paper must have leaked it. Finding that source seems more important than blocking the app where it was shared.

On the other hand, if Telegram was being widely used for scams and fake leak claims that could affect millions of students, the government may see a temporary ban as a way to reduce confusion during a critical period.

The key question is whether the ban actually works. If cheating networks simply move to WhatsApp, Discord, or some other app, then the ban may be treating the symptom rather than the cause.

What do you think?

• Is a temporary Telegram ban a reasonable step to protect exam integrity?

• Or is it collective punishment that affects millions of innocent users while the real culprits remain untouched?

• Should the focus be on banning platforms or finding the source of the leaks?

Edit: I apologize for the typo in the title. It is Pavel, not Paul.

How did Prophet Muhammad command Muslims to treat non-Muslim workers? (Hadith & History)

A lot of discussions about Islamic history focus on politics, but the actual labor laws and ethics set by Prophet Muhammad regarding non-Muslim workers are incredibly strict when it comes to protecting their rights.
Prophet Muhammad explicitly prohibited the mistreatment, exploitation, or cutting of rights of non-Muslim workers. He even warned that he would personally act as their advocate and adversary against the Muslim employer on the Day of Judgment if they were wronged.
Here is a breakdown of the specific rules established in Islamic tradition for hiring non-Muslim staff, prioritizing contractual fairness, human dignity, and mutual respect.

1. Direct Protection Against Exploitation
The Prophet left clear, recorded warnings (Hadiths) defending non-Muslims who work or live under an agreement with Muslims (historically referred to as a Mu'ahid):

"Beware, if anyone wrongs a contracting third-party (mu'ahid), or diminishes his right, or forces him to work beyond his capacity, or takes from him anything without his consent, I shall be his adversary on the Day of Judgment." (Source: Sunan Abu Dawud, 3052)
Under this rule, employers are explicitly forbidden from overburdening non-Muslim employees with physical or operational tasks that exceed their natural capabilities.

2. General Labor Rules That Apply to All Workers
Islamic labor ethics apply broadly to workers regardless of their faith. Muslim employers must adhere to these foundational principles:
Prompt Compensation: A foundational rule in Islamic labor is to pay the worker their agreed wages immediately. The Prophet famously stated: "Give the worker his wages before his sweat dries." (Sunan Ibn Majah).
Clear Agreements: Wages and job expectations must be clearly outlined and agreed upon from the start to prevent exploitation or moving the goalposts later.
Humane Treatment: Employers must refrain from verbal abuse, arrogance, or cruel behavior, matching the Prophet’s own example of treating workers with kindness.

3. Historical Practice (The Example of Khaibar)
Prophet Muhammad didn't just preach this; he practiced it. He regularly engaged in business and partnerships directly with non-Muslims.
After the treaty of Khaibar, he entered into a massive agricultural business contract with the local Jewish population. They worked the land, and the Muslims provided the capital, splitting the harvest 50/50. Historical texts record that the Prophet's representatives divided the produce so transparently and fairly that the Jewish workers openly praised the honesty of the Muslim leadership.

I came across multiple posts justifying domestic violence in Islam; I did quick AI to understand what religious text states; read body

Islamic jurisprudence does not state that a husband is allowed to strike his wife with "two fingers," though your understanding accurately captures the strictly symbolic, non-injurious nature of the limits set by classical scholars.
The concept you are referring to originates from classical commentaries on Verse 4:34 of the Quran. This verse outlines a three-step conflict resolution process for a marital crisis involving nushuz (extreme rebellion or breach of marital fidelity). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Modern legal authorities, such as Egypt's official Islamic legal body, Dar al-Ifta, and Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, clarify that domestic violence and physical abuse are strictly forbidden (haram) and criminalized in Islam. [6, 7, 8]
The Context of Verse 4:34
The Quran establishes a progressive, three-stage approach to de-escalate major marital discord: [9]

Admonition (Fa’izu-hunna): Resolving the issue through verbal communication, gentle counseling, and heart-to-heart discussion. [10]
Separation in Bed (Wahjuru-hunna): Temporarily sleeping in separate beds or refraining from intimacy to signal the gravity of the issue without public humiliation. [11, 12]
Symbolic Striking (Wadribu-hunna): A final, highly restricted measure that jurists argue was intended to prevent physical escalation, rather than permit battery. [13]
The "Miswak" or Handkerchief Rule
When the Prophet Muhammad's companion, Ibn Abbas, was asked how a husband should perform this third step if the first two steps failed, he replied that it must be done with a siwak (a small, flexible twig used as a toothbrush) or a folded handkerchief. This historical commentary is recorded in major classical works like Tafsir al-Tabari. [14, 15]

The Scope: It is a purely symbolic, psychological gesture of displeasure. [16]
The Restrictions: Classical jurists from the Shafi'i, Maliki, and Hanafi schools explicitly state that this action must not leave a mark, bruise, or scratch, must never break a bone, and must strictly avoid the face or any sensitive areas.
The Legal Consequence: If any pain or physical injury is inflicted, it immediately crosses into the category of darar (harm). The husband has committed a sin, and the wife has the legal right to seek a judicial divorce (khula or faskh) and financial compensation. [17, 18, 19, 20]
The Prophet’s Personal Example
Islamic jurisprudence heavily relies on the lifestyle (Sunnah) of the Prophet Muhammad as the ultimate lens for interpreting the Quran. Authentic records in the Hadith collection Sahih Muslim note that the Prophet never once struck a woman, a servant, or anyone else in his household. He openly expressed strong distaste for men who hit their wives, famously asking (as recorded in Sahih al-Bukhari): “Could any of you beat your wife as he would a slave, and then lie with her in the evening?”. [21, 22, 23, 24, 25]
Alternative Linguistic Interpretations
Many contemporary Muslim scholars and linguists argue that translating the Arabic root word daraba as "to beat" or "to strike" in this context is a historical misinterpretation. The word daraba has over a dozen meanings in the Quran, including "to leave," "to separate," "to distance oneself," or "to set forth an example." Based on this, a growing body of modern exegesis argues that the third step actually commands the husband to separate from the wife or leave the domestic environment temporarily to allow tempers to cool. [26, 27, 28, 29,30]
