[almaqead]

"The Squeezing of the Lemon." From Surah 18, Al Kahf, "the Force."

The Quran is a distillation of spiritual precepts portrayed in a stream of consciousness. It resembles the Talmud in many ways, except the Talmud predicts the end of global disparity. The Quran predicts the end of the lust for power.

Surah 18 is the meditation chamber wherein men and women who believe God's unseen hand is pressing us forward, out of an age of many supersitious religious beliefs into one that presses all of them to be real, true, and virtuous.

This expectation for the power of global vision within pockets of religion is what is called a pinion by the Quran. The following passage resuscitates Moses who discusses how this wall between faiths and politics must come down: He says "you first" is the problem:

18: 77-82:

"So they moved on until they came to the people of a town. They asked them for food, but the people refused to give them hospitality. There they found a wall ready to collapse, so the man set it right. Moses protested, “If you wanted, you could have demanded a fee for this.”

He replied, “This is the parting of our ways. I will explain to you what you could not bear patiently.

“As for the ship, it belonged to some poor people, working at sea. So I intended to damage it, for there was a ˹tyrant˺ king ahead of them who seizes every ˹good˺ ship by force.

“And as for the boy, his parents were ˹true˺ believers, and we1 feared that he would pressure them into defiance and disbelief.

So we hoped that their Lord would give them another, more virtuous and caring in his place.

So we hoped that their Lord would give them another, more virtuous and caring in his place."

Commentary:

The end of the above Halachah condemns the world for waiting for belief, fear, intentions, and hope, all superstitious things to change the world. Tanias, Duas, Gemaras when "worked at sea" are supposed to yield what is called in arabic term 'llm, "learned mastery of the laws".

But even this is not sentience, it does not hone the instinct to do what is right without hope for reward. This ability is the pinion for all the rest of the instructions in the Quran. It is the force Muhammad met in the Kafh that put the Djinn behind him forever.

We can being feeding the mind knowledge, the Quran says this is a must, it makes man a holier thing but if one is to become a Sheikh, a shah of the kahf, 'to be turned by the understanding inside of him", like the squeezing of a lemon. He must be balanced in all of his ways:

“Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created – Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood: Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful, He Who taught (the use of) the pen, Taught man that which he knew not” [Quran, 96:1-5].

Here we receive a direct commandment to recite, or read in the name of Allah – and to cherish the gift of knowledge and the use of writing and reading as a blessing from Allah to make ourselves better servants of God. We must understand that obtaining knowledge is a form of worship – a way to truly show our gratitude towards Allah.

“There is no god but He: That is the witness of Allah, His angels, and those endued with knowledge, standing firm on justice. There is no god but He, the Exalted in Power, the Wise” [Quran, 3:18].

In this verse, we understand that we cannot just assume that we believe in tawheed, the Oneness of God. We must actively learn and obtain knowledge to truly understand the Greatness and Oneness of Allah – which will help us stand firm on the path of righteousness.

“…they could devote themselves to studies in religion, and admonish the people when they return to them, – that thus they (may learn) to guard themselves (against evil)” [Quran, 9:122].

If, as Moses said, we pay for guardianship from others it could go away at any time. If we wait, it may never happen at all. Thus Moses says to the Prophets of God and the people:

“This is the parting of our ways. I have explained to you what you could not bear patiently."

We do not often have the luxury of thinking twice. By then it might be too late. About hesitation, the Quran says:

"The matter will not be too difficult for you - in sha Allah (if Allah wills) - for indeed if you believe in Islaam you will be believing in all of the previous Prophets, and you will be believing in the Divine Books. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

"O you who believe! Believe in Allah, and His Messenger (Muhammad), and the Book (the Qur'aan) which He has sent down to His Messenger, and the Scripture which He sent down to those before (him); and whosoever disbelieves in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last Day, then indeed he has strayed far away" [al-Nisa' 4:136].

Chrissy Teigen selects the miracle of cord blood banking for her 4th baby

Chrissy Teigen and cord blood banking

Cord blood banking has gained popularity in recent years as more and more parents are becoming aware of the benefits it offers. Chrissy Teigen, a well-known American model, author, and entrepreneur, has recently selected the miracle of cord blood banking for her fourth baby. The decision has sparked interest and curiosity among her fans and followers, many of whom may not be familiar with the concept of cord blood banking.Cord blood banking refers to the process of collecting and storing a baby's umbilical cord blood immediately after birth. This blood is rich in stem cells that can be used to treat various diseases and disorders. Cord blood banking is a simple, non-invasive, and pain-free process that can potentially save a child's life in the future.Chrissy Teigen's decision to bank her fourth baby's cord blood has shed light on the importance of this practice. By sharing her experience, she has helped raise awareness about the potential benefits of cord blood banking. In this blog post, we1. Cord blood banking explained clearlyCord blood banking is a process by which the blood from the umbilical cord is collected and stored for future use. This process is gaining popularity as it contains stem cells that can be used to treat a variety of diseases. These stem cells are collected immediately after the baby is born and are stored in a cord blood bank for future use. The stem cells in cord blood can be used to treat a variety of diseases such as leukemia, lymphoma, and other blood-related disorders. The process of collecting cord blood is painless and poses no harm to the mother or the baby. It is important to understand that cord blood banking is an investment for the future as it can provide potential life-saving benefits to the child or their family members. With Chrissy Teigen selecting cord blood banking for her fourth baby, it is clear that more and more people are recognizing the potential benefits of this process.2. Benefits of cord blood bankingCord blood banking is a process that involves collecting and storing the blood that remains in the umbilical cord and placenta after a baby is born. This blood is rich in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), which have the potential to develop into various types of blood cells in the body. Cord blood banking has been growing in popularity over the years, as it offers a wide range of benefits. Firstly, cord blood stem cells have been successfully used to treat over 80 life-threatening diseases, including certain cancers, blood disorders, and genetic diseases. Secondly, cord blood collection is a non-invasive process that poses no harm to the mother or baby, and the blood can be collected at the time of delivery. Finally, cord blood stem cells are a perfect match for the baby and may also be a suitable match for siblings or other family members in need of a stem cell transplant. These benefits make cord blood banking a valuable investment for families, and it's no surprise that public figures, like Chrissy Teigen, are opting for this miracle of modern medicine.3. Chrissy Teigen's decision explainedChrissy Teigen recently announced that she has decided to bank the cord blood of her fourth child. This decision has sparked interest and conversation around the practice of cord blood banking. Cord blood banking involves collecting and storing the blood from the umbilical cord after a baby is born. This blood contains stem cells which can potentially be used to treat a variety of diseases and conditions. Teigen's decision to bank her baby's cord blood may have been influenced by her own experiences with pregnancy complications and the potential benefits that cord blood banking offers. It is important to note that cord blood banking is a personal decision and should be thoroughly researched and discussed with a healthcare provider before making a decision.4. Why cord blood is valuableCord blood banking has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its numerous potential benefits. The blood contained within a newborn's umbilical cord is rich in stem cells, which can be used in the treatment of a variety of medical conditions, including certain cancers, blood disorders, and genetic diseases. In addition, cord blood stem cells have been found to be less likely to cause an immune response in the recipient, making them a potentially better option for transplantation than stem cells from other sources. Furthermore, cord blood banking provides families with the opportunity to preserve a valuable resource that may one day benefit their child or other family members. It is no surprise that Chrissy Teigen and other parents have chosen to take advantage of this miracle of modern medicine for the health and well-being of their loved ones.5. Cord blood collection process explainedCord blood banking is a process that involves the collection and storage of stem cells from the umbilical cord of a newborn baby. These stem cells have the potential to regenerate and repair damaged tissues, making them valuable for potential future medical treatments. The process of cord blood collection is quick, safe, and painless, and can be done at the time of delivery. After the baby is born and the umbilical cord is clamped and cut, a specially designed collection kit is used to collect the blood from the umbilical cord and placenta. The collection kit is then taken to a cord blood bank for processing and storage. This process is now being recognized by many expectant parents as a way to potentially safeguard their child's future health and wellbeing, and Chrissy Teigen is just one of many parents who have chosen to bank their baby's cord blood.6. How cord blood is storedOne of the most important aspects of cord blood banking is the storage of the collected sample. After the sample is collected, it is transported to a laboratory where it is processed and stored in a cryogenic freezer at a temperature of -196 degrees Celsius. This is done to ensure that the cells remain viable and can be used in the future if needed. The freezer used for cord blood storage is specifically designed to maintain a constant temperature and is monitored regularly to ensure that the samples are not compromised. In addition, the samples are stored in individual cryovials and labeled with important information such as the donor’s name, date of birth, and the date of collection. This ensures that the samples are easily accessible and can be located quickly when needed. Overall, the proper storage of cord blood is critical to ensure the viability and potency of the cells, and to maximize their potential use in future medical treatments.7. Cord blood banking costsChrissy Teigen recently made headlines when she announced her decision to bank her fourth baby's cord blood. Cord blood banking is a process where the blood left in the baby's umbilical cord and placenta after birth is collected and stored for potential future use. While it may seem like a costly investment, cord blood banking costs can vary depending on the company and package chosen. Generally, there are two types of cord blood banking: private and public.Private cord blood banking allows families to store their baby's cord blood for their own use, while public cord blood banking allows for donation to families in need. The cost of private cord blood banking can range from around $1,500 to $2,500 for initial collection and storage, with additional annual fees for ongoing storage. Public cord blood banking is often free, with the costs being covered by government funding or donations. It is important for families to carefully consider their options and budget when deciding whether cord blood banking is the right choice for them.8. Cord blood vs bone marrowCord blood banking has gained immense popularity in recent years as a potential source of stem cells for the treatment of various diseases. It involves collecting and storing the blood from the umbilical cord of a newborn baby, which contains stem cells that can be used in future medical treatments. On the other hand, bone marrow transplantation has been a well-established treatment for certain blood and immune system disorders. While both cord blood and bone marrow contain stem cells, there are some differences between the two. Cord blood is easily accessible and has a lower risk of complications during transplantation, while bone marrow requires a surgical procedure to collect and may have a higher risk of side effects. However, bone marrow may still be preferred for certain conditions or in cases where a larger quantity of stem cells is needed. Ultimately, the decision between cord blood and bone marrow banking should be made after consulting with a medical professional and considering individual health factors.9. Cord blood for future generationsCord blood banking is a valuable and potentially life-saving procedure that involves collecting and storing the stem cells found in a newborn's umbilical cord blood. These cells can be used in the future to treat a range of medical conditions, including leukemia, lymphoma, and various genetic disorders. Chrissy Teigen recently announced her decision to bank the cord blood of her fourth baby, recognizing the importance of this procedure for providing her child and future generations with a powerful medical resource. By banking cord blood, families can have peace of mind knowing that they have a potentially life-saving resource readily available in the future. It is a wise investment in the health and well-being of both the child and their family.10. Cord blood banking resources availableCord blood banking is a practice that has gained popularity among parents in recent years, including celebrities like Chrissy Teigen, who have opted for this miracle of science for their newborns. The process involves collecting and storing a baby's umbilical cord blood after birth, which contains stem cells that can be used to treat various diseases and disorders. Cord blood banking resources are available through private banks, which charge a fee for storage, and public banks, which offer free donation and use of the cord blood for medical research or for patients in need. Parents should research and choose a reputable cord blood bank that is accredited by the American Association of Blood Banks and the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy to ensure the safety and quality of the stored blood. It is important for expecting parents to learn about cord blood banking and its potential benefits and limitations to make an informed decision for their family.To conclude, Chrissy Teigen's decision to bank her fourth child's cord blood is a wise one. Cord blood banking has been proven to have numerous medical benefits and can potentially save lives in the future. With advances in medical research, cord blood stem cells have been used in the treatment of various diseases, such as leukemia and sickle cell anemia. It is encouraging to see a public figure like Chrissy Teigen advocate for the importance of cord blood banking and raise awareness of this valuable medical resource.

Love comes in different forms, and can shape-shift over time. It doesn’t have to be the all-consuming fiery passion that stories make us believe.

Love is our highest value, what we all crave and what we believe makes us fundamentally human, but it is also the source of considerable anxiety. Chiefly, we worry whether we are entirely normal because it frequently feels as if we are not experiencing love the way we should be. 

Society is subtly highly prescriptive in this regard. It suggests that ... we should ‘love’ in a very particular way: we should be constantly thrilled by our partner’s presence, we should long to see them after every absence, we should crave to hold them in our arms, to kiss and be kissed by them and – most of all – want to have sex with them every day or so. In other words, we should follow the script of Romantic ecstasy throughout our lives. 

This is beautiful in theory and hugely punitive in practice. If we’re going to define love like this ... then most of us will have to admit to ourselves (with considerable embarrassment) that we don’t know much about love – and therefore don’t qualify as decent, sane, or normal people. 

We’ve created a cult of love radically out of line with most of our real experiences of relationships.

‘Love’ can actually be defined more precisely.

Eros: passion / sexual attraction

the powerful physical feelings we1:49often experience at the start of a relationship

Philia: brotherhood / partnership

More steady, after the initial passionate fire has died down a bit.

love is not necessarily over when this sexual intensity wanes, as it almost always does ... Our feelings can then evolve into another sort of love ... captured with the word ‘philia’ normally translated as ‘friendship’ though the Greek word is far warmer, more loyal and more touching than its English counterpart; one might be willing to die for ‘philia’. Aristotle recommended that we outgrow eros in youth, and then base our relationships – especially our marriages – on a philosophy of philia.

Agape: compassion 

It’s the kind of love that we experience in relation to someone’s weakness rather than their strength. It reminds us that love isn’t just about admiration for virtues, it’s also about sympathy and generosity towards what is fragile and imperfect in us.
