Just finished listening to the Quran, was surprised by a few things

asalam all,

i figured since i hate reading, i listened to the quranic translation of the audio book. granted this was the sunni interpretation of the transferic translation but at the weirdly translated parts, i knew this meant something else.

but regardless of that, it is a beautiful book to listen to.

a few things caught me by surprise tho and its how the quran is basically a story that explains how powerful God really is

alot of previous people, civilisations, powers that all denied god and got punished for it

and ofc there are messages for us, the message of believing in one god, being nice and respectful, signs that came with unknown knowledge and it really got me thinking

the people of today are the same, how many cilivisations came before us and how today we think we are better than all those in the past, but in the end, we are just the same. especially those who think they are above all, shared the same mentality of pharoh thinking they are above all

it really adds to the verse: did we not bring this quran down for you to reflect upon its verses?

Dewalt circular saw blade is stuck asf

hi all i have a dewalt dcs391 circular saw and the blade is done for

saying that i tried to manually relase the hex pin screw that holds it and yes i went the correct way around since its a reverse thread and it just knackered the metal sides so its not openable now at all, even with clamp'/grabbers on the edges

my last resort is to use my angle grinder and remove teh bolt and buy a new one but before i do that, is ther any other options?

thanks

Wtf to do with this ceiling?

https://preview.redd.it/59zcmak0jo0h1.png?width=1435&format=png&auto=webp&s=49f9ced2f6b4cf41a4b045ee6840aaf42600387a

Hi all, ive just taken down some old ceiling wallpaper and im a bit stuck on what to do next

https://preview.redd.it/1kvs2ksdjo0h1.png?width=1455&format=png&auto=webp&s=2a433e9e561e935c82f6fbe32c4e20def25924c9

There are loads of cracks (this is the bedroom and above is the loft

https://preview.redd.it/x6s6sitejo0h1.png?width=805&format=png&auto=webp&s=d9db895f87de14ef17080f962d5607a049ec22ec

These cracks have been here for ages. On closer look, there is a thin layer of multi finish (the green stuff which im assuming is the MF thats been stained by glue of ceiling paper) and then plasterboard

I would like to overboard it but that seems like a considerable amount of effort. Could I get away using skrim tape and plastering over that or is the safer bet using PB and then plastering over it?

Do you believe all sunnis will go to hell?

asalam all,

let me begin by saying even as quranists, we are NOT automatically given a free heaven pass.

We are all just starting our journeys and the hard part comes from being a true muslim.

We have a long journey ahead of us, if Allah wills, and we must do more than what we are already doing to become the best of the best

saying that, there are plenty of sunnis that I know that are really great people. they do follow the traditional sunni dialect, and do the islamic things according to their interpretation but the question comes up, is that enough to be forgiven for following what God did not ordain?

hi all,

ive had my first attempt at plastering with multi mixed with extra time (ive used pre mixed putty before (nova pro roll max)) and wanted to get some feedback on a few things

  1. im assuming these wet patches are normal since the wall was plastered yesterday, should i change the temp of the room since its about 15 degrees in there right now due to english weather and it is semi humid? or should i put the heater on in that room with a dehumidifier?
  2. as im plastering 1 wall at a time, i have coated my other lime plaster walls with 3 layers of SBR (i know it can be seen as overkill but ive had so many issues with lime plaster killing my multi), and ive blue grit over them for grippage, howd i blend the corners without making it a shit job?
  3. with a mist coat, was i meant to do it when the plaster was wet or once its fully dried?

thank you!

i would LOVE critical feedback please!
