Ask nosy questions about peoples' personal lives


Everyone experiences disappointments and struggles in life. Don't ask people when we notice they could be struggling to make it up, planned or failure. 
  • Asking a recently married couple, "When are you having a baby?"
  • Asking a divorced sister, "Why did you get divorced?"
  • Asking an unmarried sister, "When are you getting married?"
  • Asking a brother, "Where did you get the money to buy your car?"
Before asking such nosy questions remember that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "Part of the perfection of someone Islam is his leaving alone that which does not concern him." 
[Narrated: Abu Huraira. Hadith hasan - Recorded by Tirmidhi] 
Hassan bin Sinan*, once saw a house & asked a simple question, "When was this house built?" But he straightaway realized that he has asked a simple question and regretted of something which does not concern him. Subhan'Allah (in Arabic define for 'Allah is Perfect'). 

Do you think we would ask nosy questions about peoples' personal lives? Do we not feel any shame?

Seth Godin's Blog: Speakerphone voice

When the speakerphone is on in the conference room, do you talk differently?  by Seth Goldin It's pretty common. We breathe from a different spot, hold our chest differently, constrict our throats and generally try to shout our words across the ocean. The people listening on the speaker are used to it. The people in the room with you, less so. Human beings don't have a long cultural history with microphones. We don't instinctively understand that they actually work. So we shout instead. And shouting changes how we're believed, trusted and ultimately heard. Learning to use a microphone is a great skill. When you speak normally, it turns out that the microphone has plenty of volts, watts and amps on hand to move your voice all the way to Latvia if you want it to. And then your words will actually be heard. Resource:  Godlin, Seth. "Speakerphone Voice. "  Sethgodin Typepad  Last Modified: Nov 11 2017. http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2017/...

Twelve Golden sentences

That is Attitude. *2 When the flood comes, fish eats ants and when the flood recedes, ants eat fish. Only time matters. Just hold on.

Thus I longed to be blessed with children. and I got children... but within no time my small apartment made me uncomfortable. I therefore longed for bigger house with garden.
