> I too simply cannot understand why someone would go to place that is clearly not a best fit for beliefs, cultural feel as home, and just try to change it to be more as he/she wish.

It's called hijrah (migrating for the sake of Allah), qur'an surah 4, ayat 97 to 100 (also surah 2, ayat 218).

The qur'an verse and Ibn Kathir's tafsir are not enough for you?

So za3faran can just lie about islam and you punish me for correcting his lie?

Without lies, islam dies.

https://quran.com/9:29/tafsirs/en-tafisr-ibn-kathir

> Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth among the People of the Scripture, until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

> Paying Jizyah is a Sign of Kufr and Disgrace

> Therefore, Muslims are not allowed to honor the people of Dhimmah or elevate them above Muslims, for they are miserable, disgraced and humiliated.

The first crusade in 1096–1099 was to drive out the muslim colonizers from the holy land
Re:The Spread of Christianity Animated on Saturday May 23, 2026 @03:20AM (#48245500)
Muslim colonization of India resulted in 80 million hindus being killed.

Because hindus are not of the people of the book (jews, christians and zoroastrians), they weren't offered the choice of becoming dhimmis (pay jizya, 2nd class status), but the choices were convert to islam or muslims would fight you.

You can run Gnome (or whichever DE you want) in WSL 2 locally like this:

The desktop is accessed locally and not via a network connection and it's running under Xwayland.

It's usual in Finland to let babies sleep outside in the strollers (even when it's cold) but in this case no one checked how the child was doing for 3 hours.

In the news he/she was called a baby.

I wrote a post on how some /r/Suomi mod tried to ban me from the whole of reddit. Yes, the whole of reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Suomi/comments/1i0kdf0/ep%C3%A4ilen...

The total reddit ban happened some hours after ZenOfPerkele banned me for this post for 3 days (it was later lifted when I made a complaint):

https://old.reddit.com/r/Suomi/comments/1he1lh1/keep_it_nord...

Check out the reasons why he permanently banned me from /r/Suomi:

> Tätä ei nyt jaksa enää kukaan. Sä tuhlaat omaa, muiden ja meidän aikaamme ottamalla jatkuvasti jäähyjä, kieltäytymällä ymmrätämästä minkä takia sun käytös rikkoo sääntöjä, ja sen jälkeen tuhlaamalla lisää kaikkien aikaa uhriutumalla metaketjuissa loputtomiin. Tästä turhautuu meidän lisäksi kaikki muut käyttäjät, eikä sulla ole selkeästi mitään halua tai kykyö muuttaa omaa toimintasi, joten parempi että etsit itsellesi toisen foorumin keskustelua varten, kun se ei täällä sääntöjen puitteissa selvästi onnistu. > Hyvää jatkoa!

So he's saying that the cause of the permaban is all mine, which is false.

I'm absolutely sure that this all comes down to me studying islam now for 9 years and writing about its harmful teachings in /r/Suomi when there's a subject where I can contribute. I have never started a thread just talking about islam.

ZenOfPerkele is a far left mod who hates it because he cannot defend that those teachings would not exist in the original sources of islam, in the quran and in the hadiths.

Then he's saying that I'm wasting other users' time with my criticisms. Since when are every user told to read each and every post? That's ridiculous.

I said he's dangerous because he wants to silence "wrong-think" and it doesn't bother him at all. Other people have noticed his behaviour and have commented that they can't say things they want to say because of a certain mod, meaning him.

He's lying about how they manage the sub-reddit. He's blocking people from engaging in discussions about things happening in Finland (Suomi). Just because he can't face the reality. Also, once he blocks somebody from /r/Suomi, that ban filter applies to /r/unitedkingdom too.
There's a far left mod /u/ZenOfPerkele in /r/Suomi who lies and shadow bans people who's messages he dislikes on ideological grounds.

I think he's dangerous

He's talking about the management of his system, not the development of his system.
