# Its like telling me Anjem Chaudary is an Imam and all the things known about him is propaganda.

# Awlaki, Anjem, et al, they all belong to the same extremist group.
I dont care about Anjjem. Anwar's anger was understandable. He said he was troubled by innocent iraqi children being killed. He said that clearly the reason he was upset and his view changed since then. Same can be said of Sayd Qutubi. His view of things changed after being persecuted and tortured in prison(hands tied behind him and dogs bite the hell out of him). I watched full documentary few years ago. He was not extreme until after.

Anjjem is a tool.

Did you care to listen to him before his alleged radicalization?. Yes, he was imam somewhere. When he passed, i made dua for him too. Watch Sheikh Imran Hussein's moment of silent and his du'a for him. I dont believe in silly propaganda and definitely not people like op. He did his part.

Endless cycle of exploitation. The debt is write off, IRS still want to collect tax on it again. This is essentially a frontier of capitalist society.
cancelled, written off or forgiven debts (in most cases) would have irs coming for you grin https://www.google.com/search?q=irs+comes+after+written+off+debts&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS747US747&oq=irs+comes+after+written+off+debts&aqs=chrome..69i57.27035j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8




The bourgeoisie will always feed fat on the proletariat till of end time lol, in the Marxist context. The system is solely based on RIBA so much so that no leniency at all, even in the case of bankruptcy. How wouldn't they allow me to pay cash when I have.
Thats why they are doing everything possible to invent cashless monetary system which is already here by the way. Just a matter of time before paper money becomes wallpaper cheesy . Also, not that they dont accept cash at all. Fact is, how many can come up with huge dollar amount for car or house loan?. Very little. And if you do put down cash, you may be scrutinized. They may call police for you. This reminds of of the place i used to work in 2006. A customer came to buy merchandises worth $5k, plus she was black woman. There is a limit you can buy on cash, otherwise, you get in trouble. Anyways, cashier summoned MOD who in turn called the police without customer knowing. She was cuffed and taken aside for interrogation. What happens in this situation is they want to know type of job you do. You better be legit. After that, how much you make a yr. If your annual income is not reasonable to them, you may be subject to further scrutiny which may lead to your undisclosed other income (which in most cases is off the book). If thats the case, you will be in trouble with irs. But this customer in question happens to marry a white dude who perhaps works at Wall Street. Or someone who wins lottery. This may be a legit excuse. Other than this, you better be a politician. Nigerian politicians buy houses cash here shocked Their case is different once they present their status to the bank. US is all about money. They would take the money.



Tell me pls, isn't ways to live COMPLETELY without this debt of a thing in the State? I read sometime ago a couple, I think in NYC has to jumped from flat and died, out of FRUSTRATION of their debt in which they believed they can't pay back, and the only escape route for them is to jump to DEATH! very pathetic.
You are not typical american if you dont owe money cheesy shocked . Yea, i heard of the couple. That was true




I think the State is over leverage society, so much so that the living standard of people can't be measurable to it EXCEPT thru debt. Despite cornocopia of jobs yet you live from one pay checks to another to survive
You are very understanding.



If I may ask, what is average earning a middle class there should be earning that will averagely sufficient to escape this trap? $60,000pa or recently proposed $130,000 for intending h1b? Lols
The median household income in the U.S. is $56,500 according to the most recent government data. (August 2017)


According to census data from 2015, 6.1% of households bring in $200,000 and higher every year and 14.1% bring in between $100,000 and $150,000. This is the upper middle class.

# Yup, you don entered one chance. No back off after signing


# You get nada if they repoccess the vehicle. Plus you get bill and penalties for breach of contract. Insurance for job loss is "unemployment benefits". But average processing for this I think 3 months or less sha but it has limit.


# To file for bankruptcy, you need to meet certain criteria, minimum of 3 missed payments. Plus you don't only file bankruptcy on montage you owe but all your properties and other debts are included even if you are not behind on other payments. They do write off debt but that depends on company. However, if a bank errors off debt but possibility exist that IRS will come after you for their pound of flesh too. Debt written off is considered income to you by irs.


# Yes, possible. There are folks that have been jailed for decades old debt. As in debt they owe 30yrs ago. They come after them in 2017. I just read of a guy few days ago.

But it depends on federal, state and local law.

charleff512 ,



Well, since you claimed to be christian you made things easy for us. So there is nothing to argue here. The Bible says,

women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. {1 Corinthians 14:34}


Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. {1 Timothy 2:11-12}


These are enough proofs to avoid lengthy argument. You need not worry about Islamic view. If you agree with your bible, no argument. We done.

IslamRe: ...... by Empiree: 1:37am On Aug 25, 2017
How To Survive The Storm Some financial institutions do offer "payment calculator" for either recurring or one time payment. If you keep making minimum monthly payment, you have a long way to go. It means by the time you make 60th payment, you have paid interest and unnecessary fees they added. So there is a way to avoid this fees and interest (if you can) depending on your income.

Pull their calculator and type amount you can afford over your minimum monthly. Let's say you can afford 2k per month, their calculator will multiply 2k per month from the first month payment for certain amount they allowed to avoid interest. They called it 'savings'. If you can make 2k a month from next month, calculator will automatically give 11 months. That's 2000 x 11 = 22000. Thats what you pay for the car in 11 months and you saved $17000 .

Unfortunately, many dont do this. They make minimum monthly payment (650) bcus it is "comfortable" not realizing they are ripped. If you make substantial a month like 2k described above, bank will make sure they still get their pound of flesh. They make sure you exceed purchased price. Thats how they set up the "payment calculator". The excess is usually btw 2000 to 4000 dollars. Thats big savings rather than making little 'convenient' monthly payment. If you can make payment within 11 months, you will be reported to credit bureau and have your credit score increased to whatever their calculation is. It could go up to 710 score within a yr. No lien on your car. You are free. You smile at the end. Be smart. But i am not sure if all banks do this. this type of cars ofc, are brand new or mint condition with very low mileage. And you still have yrs ahead to use it. But with 650 minimum every month, by the time you finish the payments, the car is worthless shocked cool

Now assume if this is mortgage shocked shocked , 95% Americans pay minimum monthly...you are screwed cheesy grin


If you decide to make full payment after signing the contract, using "payment calculator", you will end up paying $30,000 of One Time payment, and you only saved $9000. See why you still have to make monthly payment one way or the other cheesy They will NEVER allow One Time payment of 20k. grin cheesy shocked
IslamRe: ...... by Empiree: 1:02am On Aug 25, 2017
When i get the time, i will post illustrations of credit/score/loan. You will see why folks (majority) would prefer to pay monthly loan rather than paying full cash price (purchase) to buy a car (for instance). The system is setup in a way to get you one way or the other. Besides, 95% cant afford one time cash payment of car. Even rich people prefer to make payment at least twice to build their credit, which means FINANCING.

Say for instance, you go to a dealer to buy a car (new or pre-owned) for $20,000. This is actual sale price. But then, there may be some features the buyer likes; like sun/moon roof, tv, remote start, key less entry etc. These may be additional cost. They may find you similar car with these features that cost more. But let's stay on basic that cost 20k for now. If you don't have full cash at signing, and you wish to finance the car, they pull your credit report to view your credit history and score. Dealer searches for various banks or lenders cus buyer may not meet requirements of some banks. Dealer tries to make sure they find one. They don't want to lose customer.

Let's say buyer (consumer)'s credit score is 610 but lender/bank A needs 650. In that case, they deny the application. This is called "inquiry" on consumer's credit report and may cost consumer points. Let's say from 610 may drop to 603. That's why too many inquiries is not good. Lender/bank B's credit requirement may be 600. This bank/lender will approve the loan for 20k plus finance charges which cost $10k total of $30,000 plus fees (of all kinds) like: car service charge usually 3k, registration 400, roadside assistance, car protection cost etc. By the time they add these up cost another 9k. But ofc, consumer has the option of opting out of car protection. The thing is, it is good to have it after they explain it to you. You may be convinced bcus, if car is to have mechanical problems, buyer is responsible 100%. So to help you out they add protection cost at the time of signing. This is diff from insurance coverage. Thats separate that buyer pays for every month to insurance company of his/her choice.

Now, the total cost is $20, 000+10,000+9,000 total of 39,000 dollars. From this amount, some may choose to put down payment of usually $2000 but many do $0 down. So the bank may finance the whole amount for monthly payment of $650 for 60 months. You are happy to pay this amount every month. Say you pay for a yr and you lose your job, you miss payments for 3 months, your car will be reprocessed by the dealer and you lose all previous payments you have made. Not only do you lose the money, they will also charge you late fees and interest. And remember 650 you make every month, there is daily interest of let's say 8% of your monthly payment. All these are reported to credit Bureau and they mess up your credit.

# Empi.ree, ikupakuti, come and read how Ibn Taymiyyah dey do wiridi and recommend nakali:

https://ahlalbidah./2013/08/27/the-karamat-and-awrad-of-sh-al-islam-ibn-taymiyyah/
the second link is crazy one. I'm surprised ibn Taymmiya was called "Qutub". NEVER heard that before. I remembered a salafi brother here once told me Qutub is shirk. And the guy called "dragnet" said something similar. Jinn Stories thread exposed many of them. Abdelkabir however doesn't want to be called muridi.

Here ibn Quyum is called hardcore muridi of ibn Taymmiyah. So if there should be anyone to be called Mu‘talizah or Jahamiyyah , it is our salafi brothers here. Many of them denied karamat. They love to waterdown karamat. We deny bogus karamat by so called waliy. I condemn both sides of extremes: DENIALS & EXTREMISTS.

Now, we had Qutub in Africa and Nigeria but these brothers considered them to be on dolal.
IslamRe: Adam Abdullah Al-iloriy by Empiree:
Newnas:
Allah I seek aid and said and safety from.

Sheikh Adam AbduLLah al-Ilori is a scholar of Islam, he specialised in Arabic language but was a mutafannin (diverse scholar and writer).
He subscribed to the Ash'aree aqeedah and the Sufi methodology of practicing Islam.

Sheikh Adam wrote many books during his lifetime. I own and have read a number of his works. The truth is he was very devoted to gathering and teaching knowledge. This made him build a centre (markaz) for learning Islam.

However, with the revolution in Islamic knowledge and understanding, it is now clear to the knowledge seekers of Yoruba land that sheikh Adam al-Ilori was hyped. However, the knowledge he possessed was beyond par for the civilization of the place he lived during his lifetime.

However, it is the sunnah of Allah that no man will ever be free from error. Sheikh Adam had his errors and mistakes but we hope that the good he did will overrule those errors and faults.

The people of sunnah out of justice do not claim infallibility for Sheikh Adam or any other scholars of Islam. The Sufis find it difficult to understand this because they love to be excessive in praise of people till they raise their sheikhs to the level of divinity.


That is the reason why you will find sufiyyah people going to Adam's grave to make dua and offer oaths and sacrifice. Obviously this is disbelief that takes one out of the fold of Islam but we won't call them disbelievers because these followers (many of who are market women) are ignorant folks. They should be enlightened and educated not thrown out of Islam.
@bold, whats the difference with salafi who defend their scholars by hook and crook?. when others find faults with them, you people defend them "no matter what". Do i have problem with that? no. But when others defend theirs blindly as well, you rage. This i have problem with. You have clarified yourself that Allah's sunnah is that only He is above error. But what you people do is , you make sure you label sufi shuyuk alhubida cus of mistakes they made. By Islamic standard, we overlook errors or mistakes of scholars just like sahaba, even though we see errors, we are thought to speak less about it except for shia. So you guys do to sufi what shia do to sahaba. I dont really mean you specifically.

@underlined, thank god you said market women. And i hope scholars do something about it. Besides, i can not confirm your allegations cus i am learning this first time
