[MrOnline]

Pretty simple really..:up:

[Kasim2k7]

[ummbilal]

nothing i quite like myself.

[kzakir01]

Thread is a bit meaningless, no offence!

For starters can be viewed at abit negative, and since Allah has created has, all his creation is beautiful, alhumdulillah, and that's all that matters.

But yeh good luck with poll.

[ummbilal]

:embar: Yeah, it does touch quite a lot on the negativity of life. But i thought this would make a good, if not very interesting, poll. We'll see how it goes. People don't have to participate in this poll if they don't want to. Besides, those that do wish to participate could do just that!

[I understand where your coming - no offence taken brother] :banghead:

Ahh no, too bad,

Am perfecticious, 'cept a few things here and there

[Pippin1376]

We should look on the positive side of everything

My looks - Allah chose for you to look that way, that in itself is a blessing. Since Allah made me look this way, He clearly wanted me to look this way, He loves the way I look, then why should I dislike myself for it? It would be an insult to Him. So thank Him that you look this way and love Him because He only makes things beautiful.

My weight - This can be easily fixable; just work out and eat right. And if you lack discipline to do that, then discipline yourself for the sake of Allah and it will come easy. Wake up extra early for Qiyamul Layl, don't sleep after Fajr. Discipline yourself with that and Allah will help you out with your weight problem.

If you are skinny thank Allah that you have a uber fast metabolism. Some of us have a slow one, some of us have to take medication in order to have one.

My lack of knowledge - Another easily fixable thing. Read the Quran, once you start you will want to keep reading it and you'll want to gain more knowledge. Read the life of the Prophet (SAW), you'll learn about how to run a military, how to have a relationship with your friends, how to be a beautiful husband, how to care for your kids, how to be patient, how to turn to Allah all the time, etc... Once you do that, you'll want to learn more.

Shyness / Social Anxiety - Why view this as a negative? Shy = not talking too much nonsense. We should all want that. Uthman the great Sahabi was so shy, and look at his status. Aisha reports: The Prophet (sas) was lying down in his house with his thighs or his calves exposes. Abu Bakr asked permission to enter and was permitted while the Prophet (sas) was in that position and he came in and spoke with him (sas). Then, Umar asked permission to enter. He was granted permission and came in and spoke with him (sas) while in that position. Then, Uthman asked permission and the Prophet (sas) sat up and straightened his clothing. He was then permitted and came in and spoke with the Prophet (sas). After he had gone, Aisha said: Abu Bakr entered and you did not get up for him or worry about him and Umar came in and you did not get up for him nor worry about him but when Uthman came in, you straigtened out your clothing! The Prophet (sas) said: "Should I not be shy of a man around whom the angels are shy?"

So this is a good thing.

My negative outlook on life - Good! This life is dunya and it is horrible. There is a hadith that the Prophet (SAW) asked his Sahabis to buy a dying ugly goat (or sheep I’m not too sure) and the Sahabis didn’t really want to. The Prophet (SAW) said that Allah wants us to view this dunya like that ugly goat (or sheep). Why? Because when we do that, we’ll want to do more good things so we can leave this terrible place.

Lack of close friends – Your closest friend is Allah, once you have Him you are set. Your second closest friend is your spouse. If you need another Allah will provide it for you, but remember He is always first.

I'm too emotional – Cry for Allah and you won’t cry in the Day of Judgment.

I'm too unemotional, or detached / No passions – Unemotional regarding things of this dunya. Detached from this world, because I want to be in Jannah. No passion for nonsense activities and everything that is evil.

None of these, for I am 100% awesome – This is the only negative thing. That is showing arrogance by saying you’re 100% awesome. We are humans and we sin, Allah made us sin so He could hear us repent. (There is a hadith that says this)

None of these, but I hate myself other place – Ask Allah for help if you do.

I wish mine would at least hear human made noises :(
(I'm not deaf by the ways..its sometimes difficult to hear certain
noises.)

[Wolfn]

I have social phobia, so I'm really nervous and scared all the time. I wish to correct that, inshallah.

[X-zahra-X]

hmm nothing from that list...

sometimes i dislike myself cuz i like to talk, esp in the wrong times..

[Ibn Sina]

The shyness thing :o

[Rosalie-Beauty]

My lack of ability to conform. I just always have to be different.

but then again, I may like that about myself.

[Kasim2k7]

Lack of confidence is my worst problem. Second comes shyness

Asalaamu alikum

Every single person has some kind of flaw. Your is a visible one. From experience I've found that those people where it's not imediatly apparent are usually the worst off. Whether it be internal, emotional or psycological.

I have a 'wiggly' eye to quote one of my kids. I wouldn't say I dislike it though. I could have some more operations but to be honest, I'm not that fussed. It keeps me grounded.

Basically everyone, what I'm getting at is, you may have something you dislike about yourself but it may be a blessing, you just don't realise it. It sounds weird but when you see things like I do you would completely understand. I feel that in my youth arrogance could have crippled me if it wasn't for paranoia of something that I 'disliked'.

Also sometimes your loved ones or future loved ones find these 'problems' as somethin g they love about you. Weird I know, but people are freaky :D

Btw, I'm seriously awesome, not bothered about anything, although I do see myself like a Bugatti Veyron. Completely cool, but no harm in tuning it up for it to be that 'extra' bit special.

One a serious note though, as muslims (alhumdulilah) we see things differently. We get tested and when we die something better than we could ever imagine will come to us insha Allah.

Adios amigos! Awalikum salaam :up:
