Off-Topic / Re: Fundraiser to prevent homelessness
« on: February 23, 2022, 06:37:46 PM »
Hi Sarah,
I'm glad that the fundraiser was successful. I hope your situation changes for the better soon.
I think sister SarahY has given excellent advice.
Just following on from that, have you tried signing up to agencies?
Local councils and retail places are good places to try, even for sessional work. Also try universities and FE institutions. www.jobs.ac.uk is a good place to look at.
The NHS, being the largest public sector employer in England is definitely worth looking at, and I would strongly encourage you to do so.
Try the local employers in your area, whichever are the main, large companies that recruit regularly.
Not sure about the National Careers Service and Job Centre Advisers. Generally, I've not found them very good with CV and job applications unless you've been very lucky and had excellent Advisers.
In regards to having a level 5 qualification and wanting higher pay, you could like at degree apprenticeships. You could also search for "trainee" positions where you would get paid a wage which is not a lower level apprenticeship wage.
I'm sure you already use 'indeed' as that is the main website to use, but don't forget looking directly on the websites of local companies and organisations for roles which are not advertised on external websites.
Always ask employers for feedback, if you don't already, and try to apply it the best you can.
All the best.
Peace.
Sajda.

Marriage & Divorce / Re: Anyone else worried that because there are few Quran alone Muslims...
« on: November 16, 2021, 01:48:06 AM »
Peace, brother Khan,
I agree.
Where does one find a believer? As it transpires, when one meets someone who purports to be a "believer", the values which they seem to have, and how they live their life, seems to even be devoid of basic values which any average human would have.
Peace.
Peace..
It seems a strong message from you coupled with little bit of anger blended in it..
What you say is true literally... But where are those believers when it comes to marriage...?
Normally people look in matrimony or fall in love with people they mingle with.. But I don't see believers of reality in them according to Quran.. So in such case where can one find a believing matching partner..
Is it must that one should marry a believing woman or believing men or just a Muslim sufficient that is to say one who accept God in life..
I have a wonderful friend who is living in Holland.. Unbelievably good character.. I found him in this forum only... Somehow I am very close to him within mind.. But he is married and have three kids.. His wife is neither a believer nor a Muslim.. She is not perhaps an atheist.. According to him she doesn't value religion much.. He is happy with her.. He is a true believer.. Is he wromg according to Quran? He might have understood the depth of faith 5 six years back but he is married perhaps 20 years back.. He is in his early forties.. So what can he do rather than living with her.. Coz they are a wonderful family... Faith is individual to a self.. Why faith matters when it comes to marriage..
Had God threatened us if we marry a person who doesn't believe in God that we will be penalized? ... I am not sure.. But if you pls bring verses.. Believing woman for believing men is so perfect.. Yes.. I agree.. But where are they? Who are they? I don't see them.. Good people in character in have seen but not believers like us..
I was wondering why adopted son of Mohamed did divorce while he was described as a good person.. So.. Marriage life is not merely on faith.. It is with adaptability love care duty to certain limit.. Extremism in anything will not make a perfect ideal person in life..
Prophets who married to disbelieving women didn't divorce them.. They could have.. Right? But they continued..
In my understanding simply a person who believes in God would make a good choice.. But couple should match in their preference coz they have to love together.. Only they match can go in life long journey.. Not mere faith..
Is it forbidden to marry just a simple person who believe in God literally but not labelled as muslim or QURAN alone..
It is really intricate for me..
Buy never we should marry a person who is a Disbeliever abd active in disbelief and against faith.. Such never would suit even how much they a compatible life partner..
What's QURANs direct order when it comes to marriage..
Quran clearly says such and such people are not allowed for you in marriage.. But faith is mentioned in that verse 4:23-24?
Let me mentions verse 2:221.. It clearly says not to marry mushrik... And never stated any other... So apart from mushrik /.idolaters there are many type of people on earth... Believing person I ideal but not found.
I am not against your strong statement butI need further clarification with Quran.. Thank you sister..
I agree.

Hi Ervin,
I hope you're well, brother, and getting better as each day passes.
I remember reading your posts when I first joined this forum many years ago.
Life is a struggle. Keep going.

This entire thing is very circumspect.
My friend's friend (who lives in China) told him this morning that lots of young people have died from this - including those with no previous adverse medical history.

General Issues / Questions / Re: Is it possible for God to communicate with us through ways other than the Qur'an
« on: March 11, 2020, 11:16:13 AM »
Salaam,
Perhaps I'm not intelligent enough to grasp your point (which is entirely possible and possibly the most plausible explanation! ), however, can "signs" not be a method of "communication"?
Thank you.
Peace.
Sajda.
Salaam Es,
yes, you're right. In terms of the signs, it could be anything. But to communicate with God (His messages), it is in the form of writing.

Salaam,
Why must it be in writing? Surely God shows his signs in various forms?
Peace.
Salaam
It does not always have to be Al Qur'an, but also the previous scriptures. But certainly it must be in the form of writing.
96:4 The One who taught by the pen.
96:5 He taught the human being what he did not know.
and surely we will understand,
27:92 "And that I recite the Qur'an." He who is guided is guided for himself, and to he who is misguided, say: "I am but one of the warners."
27:93 Say: "Praise be to God, He will show you His ayatihi (signs) and you will know them. And your Lord is not unaware of what you do."
if we are patient enough to wait for a best explanation to come,
25:33 And for every example they come to you with, We bring you the truth and the best explanation.
There was a time when God spoke directly to humans, but not anymore. This has been written in ancient books,
2 Esdras
Chapter 1
35 Your houses will I give to a people that shall come; which not having heard of me yet shall believe me; to whom I have shewed no signs, yet they shall do that I have commanded them.
36 They have seen no prophets, yet they shall call their sins to remembrance, and acknowledge them.
37 I take to witness the grace of the people to come, whose little ones rejoice in gladness: and though they have not seen me with bodily eyes, yet in spirit they believe the thing that I say.
Be happy in your faith..
Peace
