Has anyone here homeschooled their kids
How do you even begin to plan their curriculum?
or
How do you think you’re qualified enough to homeschool them?
What were some challenges that you faced during this process and how you overcame them?

What are some differences you’ve noticed in your(homeschooled) kids and others of the same year/age?

Is the legal profession considered permissible for a practicing Shia Muslim?

I’ve heard differing opinions on this issue within my family. While every accused individual has a right to legal representation, the concern being discussed is specifically in the context of marriage proposals. For example, some of my relatives are hesitant to consider lawyers as potential spouses for my cousins because they fear that a lawyer’s income could become problematic(in the sense of halal/haram) if they knowingly represent, defend, or assist someone who is guilty of wrongdoing. And can an individual who’s earning through this profession really do that, think about every single case in this manor there is so much caution involved and definitely remorse tied to it i’d think so. I’d love to hear lawyers povs too this is definitely not an attack i am aware the same can be said about other professions i.e investment related incomes. I just want to understand it a little better.

From a Shia Islamic perspective, is the profession of law itself permissible, and where are the ethical boundaries regarding the representation of clients who may be guilty?

May Allah make it easier for all my brothers and sisters in faith trying to find a match here for marriage.❤️
May Allah bless you with a good spouse that is good for your mental physical spiritual health and strengthen you when you feel weak.
And the ones already married may Allah bless you with more Barakah in your relationships with your partners and the family that is from you. :) Illahi Ameen.
Please pray for this sister in faith for a good healthy compatible partner and for myself to be able to get married soon easily. 🥰

Being from subcontinent india/Pakistan we hear this narrative that the hijab of Bibi Zainab and the rest of the ladies was forcibly taken and the ladies of Aal e Muhammad were marched from Karbala to Kufa then to Shaam without anything on their heads with bare heads and some women put dirt in their hair to hide their hair.
When i read about it from other sources except those from my country they claim that
Yes the yazids forces tried to attack their veil but it was the most outer layer of their purdah as they used to wear a lot of layers over their bodies but they were not forced to go from Karbala to shaam with their hair open and nauzubillah like slaves.
Can someone site me some refrences as i am still confused about this we grew up listening only to the first narrative even from scholars.

I got admitted to Yale and got full tuition scholarship but have to bear my living expenses but I am from so h8mble background that I cant show the cost of living expenses in my Bank Statement to get this Visa.

I am so so heartbroken for missing this chance. I will notify the university in two or three days. I tried so much but still couldnt get my finances straight coz i am a son of retired security guard. I worked 2 part time jobs to support my bachelors and worked really hard and now I am one of the top 3% that got selected in Yale Uni.

How should one deal with this if they are talented and got opportunity but couldnt grab it just because one is poor and there is no mistake of him being poor.

So, is anyone able to he*p me in this either through giv*ng me lo*n or showing a ba*k statement? I just have less than 1 week.

I can show you full pr*of of all scho*arsh*p documents and other relevant things.

Salam Fellow Shia brethren,

My question is: what helps/helped you with being regular in your prayers?

I have been trying to be regular in my Salah and for a good while I was doing pretty well, but recently for the last few days I’ve been having issues consistently with my Zuhr/Asr prayers. I keep postponing them thinking I have a lot to do and will offer them once I’m free. Even when I don’t really have anything to do, I still purposely delay them to the point where:

A. I forget about them and miss them
B. I’ve gotten into the bad habit of sleeping between Asr and Maghrib (ik it’s not recommended, I’m trying to fix it)
C. I remember last minute and run like hell 😭

It really is my fault and I think it’s my sloth/laziness and procrastination. I always regret it later. 😔🙏

What genuinely helped you become consistent?

Is it a feeling? Is it a need for support emotionally?
If you want to do mundane things alongside someone? Like constantly missing a part of yourself like a strange void?
Ik the physical aspect of it when it becomes haram to avoid getting married out of fear of committing a sin.
Do you think as there is a narrative that you should be content with your life as it is and then get married so the person adds onto your already beautiful life?
What are the most important things you should consider while searching for someone?
For me it is
Compatibility(Religious and overall), Attraction, Security.
Is financial security important to consider prior to getting married in a Man? And How much should it factor in?
Please share your thoughts and things that you think are important. It will definitely help me. ❤️

Guys! Have you ever thought about how Hollywood portrays a hardworking, stressed, unbathed, unshowered, unsupported woman alone in her marriage with a man that only financially contributes, and she is basically a married single woman (mother) in its movies as a common reality?

For the last 20 years that I have been alive and consuming media, this one stereotypical mother’s struggle has been shown over and over again as a reality, which I know it is for a lot of women. And while I know this is a painful reality for many women, the way it is repeatedly depicted often feels less like awareness and more like a bleak warning against marriage and motherhood itself.

It has always been so scary to me, and it is shown over and over again in a completely off-putting, foreshadowing, hopeless manner. There’s something deeply unsettling about how normalized this image has become in film and television, as though exhaustion, loneliness, and emotional abandonment are inevitable parts of being a wife and mother.

So many women around me, young women my age, 18 to 22, hate the idea of having kids and the sacrifice of carrying the child, then delivering, then the care and upbringing. I suspect the way it is portrayed. It must be some kind of propaganda, as we now know that 🧃 they’re against families and they’re against women having kids, and they have succeeded, especially in the West, where women have more rights over their bodies, and among many young women in my vicinity.

Not only have they made us hate women that choose to have children , they have made it natural for us to hate children, and the simple kindness and care that were once extended normally by the general public to pregnant women or young moms is now a foreign concept.
What are your views about this?

Context : 22F
You ever wonder that age is just a concept after 18 and people have different priorities in different eras of their lives It is fine if both are 2 consenting adults, age gaps over 5 6years are normal in a marriage.
But then you start talking to a guy and he just pisses you off w every thing that comes out of his mouth and you realize why are they single still at the big age of 30. (perhaps more as they do love to round off)
Because they can’t talk to women without belittling them especially if they are younger or giving them advice constantly without being asked? did i ask u sir?
And if you say no they get so offended like you insulted them by not agreeing with them.
I genuinely want to like a guy 😭🙏.

I come across this superior ideology almost daily especially when i state my pov that according to shi’ie beliefs that…..
I always get hit w “I don’t believe in sects we are all muslims” 🤨 and they feel super smug about it too w the corners of their mouths raised a little (almost teasing almost looking down at me) (maybe it’s just in my head)
it just rubs me the wrong way 😭
Am i the problem?
^Give me good clapbacks yall 😡

so I have this question I recently got into a conversation with a friend where she was insinuating that the prophet didn’t know better and he did something wrong and then the God instructed him this is what you did wrong and he fixed that.
and I really got pissed about it and I told her that this is so illogical. This is so wrong acc to shi’ie perspective.
then she posed her question saying that weren’t prophets taught all in a real time. God guided them when they didn’t know better.
😃⁉️ Idk i’m confused yall.

Recently got into a discussion regarding this topic where a male gym friend told me that running is not fir girls it makes you boobs small and your periods lighter and is not healthy for female body…….
