If anyone wants to join the ‘Learning Bitcoin from command line” cohort. I’m taking part as a TA so all are welcome https://bitshala.org/cohorts/lbtcl/
Already working on it
Ppl often ask me about the nisaab (& therefore the zakaat) on Bitcoin. The easiest way to see the nisaab is to go to trading view and type the following: XAUUSD*2.733/BTCUSD You can copy/paste that if you want, & it will show you how much coin you need to be above the nisaab. Once you have that value, count 355 days from that point, & if you have stayed above the daily value you see on the side, then you pay zakaat. Not on ramadhaan, but 355 days from the moment you were above that line (assuming you have no other money). Then just pay 2.5% from that.
Well, last year they promised us that it would be uploaded to YouTube. It wasn’t. So I go knows if this year would’ve any different
What this story & similar stories like it fail to capture are the other factors outside of this oversimplified scenario. It DIDN’T talk about how those men earned their money…What fraction of their wealth their payment was, etc. and I don’t even agree with taxes… https://xcancel.com/alanjlsmith/status/1994379528320192580 The rich guy paid £50, but if it was 0.001% of his net worth, while the 5th guy paid 30% of his net worth, the story is now VERY different. If the 1st-5th guy struggles to pay their bills, while the 10th guy has multiple houses & a private jet, these are VERY different ppl. So from a Muslim perspective, what would be a righteous move is if the 10th guy would just say ‘hey guys, this is on me’ and guy 1-9 would say ‘Maa Shaa Allah!!’ And make duaa for him. Everyone winning. This is how it works with us. And the joke is, this is what you see. Just google search the many MANY videos of Muslims in say Saudi Arabia fighting to pay the bill. That’s ’Karan’, and this civilisation. “Whoever protects his own self from the selfishness of his own soul will be from the successful ones.” https://youtu.be/B1DWCm_vees
A lot can be said, but if we look at Muslims nations globally, the GCC nations seem to be the most successful in multiple sectors, so give Jack his jacket and support your brothers and sisters wherever they are and hold back our tongue from them.
Who said they do? Biden told MBS to stop buying Russian oil, and he said no, I’ll buy it and sell it on. So what are you talking about? Saudi just joined a defence pact with Pakistan, mended ties with Iran, demanded Palestine have their own state before considering normalising with Israel. Maybe you’re not following how things operate there.
Muslims where rise up? I’m not fully grasping what your referring to
I’m actually in a bit of shock tbh at how quickly the west were able to turn Muslim attention away from Gaza, Israel and the west’s manifest support for the genocide towards Muslim leadership as if what the UK and US did and continue to do never happened. Are Muslim diaspora that sheepish and hyper-emotional that they can’t see the obvious “Bait and switch” going on?
