Imam al-Awzai rahimullah (157H)
"When we were, and the tabi'in were still many, we said: Verily Allah is above His Arsy, and we believe in His Attributes that come in the sunnah."

 (Al-Asmaa wa sifat li Al-Baihaqi 2/304 no 865, Al-'Uluw li Al-'Aliy Al-'Adziim li Adz-Dzahabi 2/940 no 334, and his sanad was declared jayyid by Al-Hafidz Ibn Hajar in Fathul Baari 13/406-407)
Ibnu Qutaibah rahimullah (276H)

"All the ummah, both Arab and non-Arab, they say that Allah is in the sky as long as they have their fitrah and their fitrah aren't removed from their fitrah by other teachings (influenced by deviant creeds)."
(Takwil Mukhtalafi Hadiits no. 395, tahqiq Muhammad Muhyiiddin Al-Ashfar, the 2nd edition of Al-Maktab Al-Islaami.)
Utsmaan Ibn Said ad-Daarimi rahimullah (280H)

"And it has been agreed that the words from the Muslims and even the disbelievers state that Allah is in the sky, and they have explained Allah that Allah is above the sky, except Bisyr Al-Marrisi and his friends who are misguided.
Even children who are not yet mature, they know this. If a little child is troubled by something he raises his hands to His Rabb praying to Him in the sky, and does not point his hands towards anything other than the sky.
So everyone knows more about Allah and where Allah is than the Jahmiyah." (Rod Ad-Darimi Utsmaan bin Sa'iid alaa Bisyr Al-Mariisi Al-'Aniid pg. 25)
Abu Bakr Ibn Ishaq Ibn Khuzaimah rahimullah (311H)

"As Allah has told us in the Qur'an and through the saying of His Prophet Shallallahu Alaiyhi Wasaalam, and as it was understood in the fitrah of the Muslims, from among the scholars and the ignorant people, (1)
independent people and their slaves, men and women, adults and their little children. All people who pray to Allah jalla wa 'alaa only raise their heads to the sky and extend their hands to Allah, upwards and not downwards" (At-Tauhiid 1/254)
Sheikhul Islam Abu Uthman Ash-Shabuni rahimullah (449H)

"The Hadith experts believe and testify that Allah is above the seven heavens above His' Arsy as stated in the Al Qur'an
.... (1)
The scholars and leaders of the ummah from the salaf generation do not dispute that Allah is above His arsy and His arsy is above His heaven." (Aqidatus Salaf wa Ashaabil hadiits p. 44)
Imam adz Dzahabi said, "Shaykhul Islam Ash Shabuni is a faqih, hadith expert, and preaching Sufi. He was the Shaykh of the city of Naisaburi in his day" (Al-'Uluw 2/1317).
10. Imam Abu Nashr as-Sijzi rahimullah (444H)

Imam Adz-Dzahabi said (Siyar A'laam An-Nubalaa '17/656):
"As for our imams such as Sufyan Ats Tsauri, Imam Malik, Sufyan Ibn Uyainah, Hammaad bin Salamah, Hammaad Ibn Zaid, Abdullah bin Mubarak, Fudhoil Ibnu 'Iyyadh, Ahmad bin Hanbal
and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim al Handzoli agreed (ijma') that Allah with His Essence is above Throne and His knowledge covers every space, and He is above Arsy will be seen on the Day of Judgment by sight,
He will come down to the heavens of the world, He is angry and pleased and speaks according to His will."
Imam Abu Nu'aim rahimullah (430H)

In al Itiqod, "Our path is the path of the salaf, namely followers of the Qur'an and Sunnah and the consensus of the ummat. Among the things they believe is that Allah is always the Most Perfect with all His qualities that are qodiimmah
...
and they declare and determine the hadiths that have been valid about the 'Arsy and Istiwa` of Allah above them without doing takyif, and tamtsil. Allah is seperated from His creatures and the creatures are separated from Allah,
Allah does not occupy them and does not mix with them and He lives above His Arsy in the sky, not on earth." (Al-'Uluw by Adz-Dzahabi 2/1305 or mukhtashor Al-'Uluw 261)
Imam Adz Dzahabi on Imam Abu Nu'aim said, "He has quoted the existence of an ijma' regarding this postion, and he was the hafizh of the 'ajam (non-Arab) people of his time without any dispute. He has gathered between history and knowledge of diroyah." (Al-‘Uluw 2/1306)
Imam Abu Zur'ah ar Raazi (264H) & Imam Abu Hatim (277H) rahimahumullah
Ibn Abu Hatim said: "I asked my father (Abu Hatim) and Abu Zur'ah about the madzhab of ahlussunnah on ushuluddin (aqeedah) and the scholars throughout the country whom he met and what he both believed about it
He both said, "We find all scholars throughout the country both in Hijaz, Iraq, Syria and Yemen believe that:

Faith is in the form of words and practices, increasing and decreasing
...
Allah 'azza wa jalla above' His arsy is separated from His creatures as He has affirmed Himself in His book and through the saying of His Messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam without asking how, His knowledge covers everything,
"There is nothing similar to Him, and He is the One Who hears and sees" (Syarh Ushuul I'tiqood Ahlis Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah by Al-Laalikaai 1/198)
Imam Ibnu Abdil Bar rahimullah (463H)

"In the hadith there is the argument that Allah is above, namely above 'His Arsy, above the seven heavens, this is as said by the ijma'. This is evidence from them against mu'tazilah and jahmiyah (1)

"The engineers on my team just want to code. They don't want to have anything to do with product. They just want specs. What do I do?"

1/n Are you asking them do to X *and* do their "day job" as defined by their managers (and frankly your roadmap) ?

If so, start there...

2/n Do they have a reason to believe that doing X will in any way improve the quality of the product and make their lives easier? Have they ever seen X "work" ?

Show don't tell.

3/n Is there average day/week a quagmire of unnecessary meetings, wading through tech debt, struggling to get *anything* to work ... and jumping through process hoops to prove their worth?

If so...no they will not have bandwidth.

4/n How do incentives work on the engineering team? Maybe they want to help, but their "grade" is determined by something altogether different.

"I'd love to, but I am on the hook to deliver [some project] this quarter to make a good impression..."

Talk to eng management.

5/n Have they had any time to practice?

Or did they get thrown into the deep end the first time they were given a shot ... expected to brainstorm on demand, be as vocal as practiced PdMs and designers, and "participate" !

Make it safe to practice. Reasonable expectations.

the whole point of Dunks was you could go cop them at VIM whenever you wanted for $65. this shit is like having to enter a raffle to buy milk.


like seriously why not make a ton more of them if they're gonna be so sought-after? they land at outlets? so? nike still makes money off that.

the only reason to keep making them so limited is that they KNOW all that matters is the profit on the flip and if they were readily available FEWER people would want them, not more

the whole system is super broken, but it's just gonna go the way it goes, because at this point it all caters to the secondary market. the only reason Nike can sell Jordan 1s for $200 is because the people buying them can flip them for $500

adjusted for inflation, a $65 AJ1 in 1985 is like $160—and modern-day AJ1s are made from cheaper materials in factories staffed by cheaper workers. they don't HAVE to be $200 retail. but the secondary market nuked the whole concept of what sneakers are "worth"

#Cardano “Understanding Kamali”

#Cardano will be the underpinning of the emergence of Africa.

To grasp the full weight of the SOLUTIONS #Cardano can provide it is pertinent to read “Understanding Africa” as I will draw directly from the PROBLEMS laid out.


(2/50)

Here is a link if you have not already read


(3/50)

What I will attempt to do here, is to create an immersive world for you to be placed in to grasp the weight and size of problems from the ground level and then take a grass-roots approach at solving them using #Cardano and its technology.

(4/50)

As an investor and community member of #Cardano, this should be extremely important to you as you have a stake (pun intended) in this.

“You are paid in direct proportion to the difficulty of the problems you solve” - @elonmusk

(5/50)

In Africa, agribusiness, more than any other sector, has the potential to reduce poverty and drive economic growth. Agriculture accounts for nearly half of the continent’s gross domestic product and employs 60 percent of the labor force.

1. I was walking in the woods yesterday and I had an epiphany. It wasn’t one I wanted to have. I was thinking about today’s class, where we are reading Kimmerer’s ‘Gathering Moss’. I’ve taught Braiding Sweetgrass in multiple classes every year since 2016. It’s eminently teachable

2. Both books are beautifully written. Students uniformly enjoy them as assigned reading. They do a great job communicating to non-Indigenous folks the contours of basic Indigenous relationships to more-than-human beings. They’re wildly popular with white readers.

3. I’ve found Braiding Sweetgrass to be a great entry point for non-Indigenous folks to Indigenous scholarship. But this is where yesterday’s epiphany comes in. Neither Braiding Sweetgrass or Gathering Moss tends to the deep deep lineages of Indigenous scholarship in Canada or US

4. As the popularity of ‘Braiding Sweetgrass’ has soared, I’ve seen more and more white folks wax on about ‘braiding knowledge’. But they often don’t know any of the lineages of these concepts beyond what is presented in this one book. They confidently run with this.

5. Kimmerer does a commendable job of weaving in her own experiences, her family stories+nods to some very important knowledge keepers who deserve to be celebrated for their work. But Braiding Sweetgrass does not tend to the citational politics Sara Ahmed & others teach us about

WEAPONS OF MAHADEV

Sarvaripati Shiva is one of the most fearsome manifestations of Mahadev. Assigned with destroying all of the universes at the end of time, Shiva is one of the most fearsome warriors. He is the Mrityunjaya.
Here are some weapons associated with him:


TRISHULA: the 3 pointed blades denote creation, maintenance, and destruction or the 3 Kalas – Past, Present and Future. They also represent 3 Gunas – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas).
Shiva’s trishul can only be stopped by Shiva himself.
@onlyonenetra @DetheEsha


Trishul is also said to represent Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna. These are the three basic nadis – the left, the right and the central – in the pranamaya kosha, or the energy body of the human system.
@iamkamyabuch @unever_followme


PARASHU: axe with 4 cutting edges which Shiva gave to Parashurama. In his anger, Parashurama used the parashu to get rid of the all the Earth’s tyrannical kshatriya caste twenty-one times over.
@harshasherni


CHANDRAHASA SWORD: The divine sword Chandrahasa literally means ‘the laughter of the moon’. Ravana gave this sword to Indrajit on different occasions especially to fight against Devas.
GIRISH: A special sword of Shiva with unique characteristics.

1) OBSERVATION: The frequencies are changing. I would have to assess stats on the electromagnetic field to see its fluctuations. All I know is, I am highly sensitive to energy/frequencies, and they are changing, because…

2) 2 Weeks ago, my dog was effected by it as well. He is hearing things that aren’t technically audible. I can tell by his body language and sounds. One week ago I began feeling a pressure in my head and ears. It wasn’t painful at all, but it was intense for a bit.

3) It reminded me of taking off in an airplane a bit. I felt like I was in a vacuum. It went on and off for a couple of days. I’ve picked up on frequencies and high pitched sounds (not audible to most) for 30 years, and today my right ear began to ring for longer than usual.

4) This is nothing unusual for me, with exception of the duration. This happens often with me. No, it’s not tinnitus. Only this time, when I spoke, there was reverb creating a high pitch in my ear from my voice. This lasted for about 30 minutes. It did not hurt, just annoying.

5) So yes, the frequencies are changing. What this means exactly, I am unsure of at the moment. Some will say electromagnetic fields, others will say ascension, and some will say pole shift. I honestly can’t say at this very moment.

प्राचीन काल में गाधि नामक एक राजा थे।उनकी सत्यवती नाम की एक पुत्री थी।राजा गाधि ने अपनी पुत्री का विवाह महर्षि भृगु के पुत्र से करवा दिया।महर्षि भृगु इस विवाह से बहुत प्रसन्न हुए और उन्होने अपनी पुत्रवधु को आशीर्वाद देकर उसे कोई भी वर मांगने को कहा।


सत्यवती ने महर्षि भृगु से अपने तथा अपनी माता के लिए पुत्र का वरदान मांगा।ये जानकर महर्षि भृगु ने यज्ञ किया और तत्पश्चात सत्यवती और उसकी माता को अलग-अलग प्रकार के दो चरू (यज्ञ के लिए पकाया हुआ अन्न) दिए और कहा कि ऋतु स्नान के बाद तुम्हारी माता पुत्र की इच्छा लेकर पीपल का आलिंगन...

...करें और तुम भी पुत्र की इच्छा लेकर गूलर वृक्ष का आलिंगन करना। आलिंगन करने के बाद चरू का सेवन करना, इससे तुम दोनो को पुत्र प्राप्ति होगी।परंतु मां बेटी के चरू आपस में बदल जाते हैं और ये महर्षि भृगु अपनी दिव्य दृष्टि से देख लेते हैं।

भृगु ऋषि सत्यवती से कहते हैं,"पुत्री तुम्हारा और तुम्हारी माता ने एक दुसरे के चरू खा लिए हैं।इस कारण तुम्हारा पुत्र ब्राह्मण होते हुए भी क्षत्रिय सा आचरण करेगा और तुम्हारी माता का पुत्र क्षत्रिय होकर भी ब्राह्मण सा आचरण करेगा।"
इस पर सत्यवती ने भृगु ऋषि से बड़ी विनती की।


सत्यवती ने कहा,"मुझे आशीर्वाद दें कि मेरा पुत्र ब्राह्मण सा ही आचरण करे।"तब महर्षि ने उसे ये आशीर्वाद दे दिया कि उसका पुत्र ब्राह्मण सा ही आचरण करेगा किन्तु उसका पौत्र क्षत्रियों सा व्यवहार करेगा। सत्यवती का एक पुत्र हुआ जिसका नाम जम्दाग्नि था जो सप्त ऋषियों में से एक हैं।

Gudimallam is a small village located in Chittoor district. It is seven miles away from Tirupati. This small village came to significance,due to it's very beautiful Shiva Mandir with history of thousands of years. 1/n


The main importance of the mandir lies in the Linga which is housed in the Garbhagriha of the temple & considered as the only one of such type. It is the earliest Linga discovered so far and it has been assigned to the 3rd century BCE.(Satavahana period) 2/n
