Faith’s triumph over Law.
By: Imran Yusuf
Tags: Rambhoomi, Muslims, Hindus, India, Babri Masjid

This is the true story which has gained a lot of International attention and has been used as a medium to gain victory in the democratic election held in India since 1949.

India, being a country of diverse cultures, religions, languages has always welcome everyone with a big hug. But as we all know that everything that glitter is not gold, India too has some coal in gold.

The hate and love between the two communities “Hindus and Muslims” has created history. And the greatest instance was the partition which took place in the month of August 1947 which leads to nearly death of 2 millions innocent people.

Many Muslims and Hindus took part in the independence of India from British colonial establishment. But as we all know that the British brain has always manipulated the emotions of the people and they did the same between two peace loving society.

Babri Masjid has become the land of dispute between the two communities as the faith is involved in the land. Mughal emperor Babur had built this Masjid which the Hindus claim as the birth place of Ram. Taking the advantage of the sentiments of the minority and majority the Indian political leader have grilled their sandwiches at their best.

The matter continued with the apex court for a long duration and then come the BJP in rule whose ideology is based on Hindutva which has nothing to do with Hinduism. The correct example which you can understand is Zionism has nothing to do with Judaism.

The apex court has delivered it’s judgement on 09th November, 2019 pronouncing victory of faith over justice. Many Muslims leaders has respected the order with a tag line that apex court is apex but not infallible and as per the freedom given to a citizen of India, the Muslims has decided to go for a review of Supreme Court judgement.

The Prometeus Labs presents a new regular column — blogger of the week. This will be a series of stories about the maddest, funny, hot, glamourous Influencers from Instagram.

The feat of Muslim blogger

Shahd Faisal Khidir is a Muslim Instagram blogger who wears a hijab and pairs it perfectly with her eyeshadow. She’s also the bravest influencer who has openly shared her journey with weight gain–and loss–with her 36k+ followers. The feat did not go unnoticed. Marie Claire has just interviewed Shahd Faisal Khidir.

Shahd Faisal Khidir: Before and After

“When I lost my job and gained a lot of weight, I focused on beauty blogging. Like I always say, makeup doesn’t have a size. I found my niche in helping women select products and read labels and purchase items to suit their skin. Eventually, I started changing my lifestyle, eating more greens and vegetables, and going to the gym. I lost some weight and I was able to fit into my old clothes again. Now I incorporate clothing and beauty products into my posts. Sometimes, I match my eyeshadow to my hijab or my outfit to my hijab; I always tie it together with a bag!” Shahd Faisal Khidir says.

Shahd Faisal Khidir under Prometeus

In the previous article, we published the detailed instruction for Prometeus Network Use Case Demo. If shortly, it provides with access to in-depth demographic & psychographic data on both influencers and their audience as well as other valuable insights. Everybody can test demo.

AN AYAH A DAY — Day 23. As-Salaam Alaykum
By: Rafiat Muhammed-Nuhu
Tags: Muslim, Ramadan

As-Salaam Alaykum

The theme for today In Sha Allah is “Glorification of Allah”. Today’s post is based on personal perspective.

When you start making du’a (supplication) to Ya Rabb, do you just go straight to the point and ask “Ya Allah, give me this and that” or do you take your time to Glorify and Exalt Him?

Allah (subhana wa’taala) loves to be praised and revered by His Believing slave and personally I believe the first thing one should do before you start asking and seeking for anything from Him, you should exalt Him in the beautiful of ways because with all His Favours and Blessing around us, you just have to appreciate His Greatness.

To exalt Allah (azza wa’jal), as the above Ayah indicates, one has to limit oneself to the premise of how He has been Praised and Exalted in the Qur’an calling Him all the beautiful names He is attributed with i.e Asma-ul-Husna.

Starting our du’as this way widens our scope and puts us in a state of remembrance of His Might and Power which makes the heart strong in belief that whatever we seek from Ya Ilahi, there’s nothing that can stop it from becoming a reality if He Wills it.

On a personal note, I feel like if we don’t Glorify Him in the best of ways and extent of our ilm and just dive straight into asking from Him, it’s disrespectful. As Nourman Ali Khan said in his book “Allah isn’t like a restaurant where you just order up”. Where is the devotion and the love you have for Him.

As the nights roll by and subsequently in our daily lives, our first point when supplicating to Ya Qaadir should be to Glorify, Exalt and Praise Him for He is deserving of all this and more.

May Allah accept our du’as and May we witness the night of Laylatul Qadr.

JazakaAllah Khayr 💕

We meet again tomorrow In Sha Allah

Maa’Salaam.
I Realised I Was Racist During Dhuhr Prayer.
Tags: Racism, Islam, Muslim

Footscray in Melbourne, like a lot of inner city suburbs, is a gritty, melting pot of a suburb. Wealthy and the not so wealthy. Fresh university students and long time locals. Those looking for a quirky cafe and those looking for their next quick hit. People of all colours and creeds walk these streets and in the space of a minute you can cross over from a Vietnamese dominated part to Sudanese.

It was time for dhuhr prayer, the second of the five prescribed to Muslims. I found a green patch in a quiet alley way, put my bag down and laid out my jacket to pray on. Nearby, a group of 4 or 5 young black men hung out, talking and laughing. I was mid prayer, doing my best to concentrate — until one of these young men started walking my way.

My concentration immediately shifted. His body language hidden by the red hoody he was wearing. As he got closer, I felt more and more nervous and my anxiety could be broken down into parts. First, by the way he staggered over I could tell he was under the influence of something. Another reason was his age and the fact that he was in a group — but a reason I can’t ignore when looking back on that moment, was his skin colour.

I am a Muslim who grew up in one of the most multicultural parts of Sydney and Melbourne. The mosques I went to were filled with people of all colours. The schools I went to, too. My childhood friends were varied. Never had I ever felt scared to be around other people of colour yet here I was, in the middle of my prayer where I’m supposed to be in a zen like state, wondering if the black man approaching me was going to turn aggressive or attempt to take my belongings.

As he got closer, I grew more nervous. When he reached me and did what he set out to do, my nervousness turned into a deep shame, humility, guilt; all of the above. He stood next to me, raised his hands to his ears, said Allahu Akbar and turned my solo prayer into a congregational one. When I bowed, he bowed. When I prostrated, he prostrated, when I ended the prayer, he did too. He thanked me for praying in front of him, told me that it reminded him to pray, how proud he was to see someone pray in public and that I should never fear to do so. I pushed out a smile and resisted the wave of tears forming at the back of my stinging eyes.

He thanked me but it’s me who felt overwhelmingly grateful - that he showed me my true colours. That he showed me what I needed to work on, what part of me I needed to analyse, understand, change and heal.
No stacks in Indian investments are hurting Muslims!
By: Ansaar.In Staff
Tags: Business, Investing, India, Media, Muslim

Assalamualaikum,

Sorry, Indian Muslims hold no stack in major corporations!

With ansaar.in we wanted to encourage more Indian Muslims to start investing in stock markets instead of them keeping their money in savings bank accounts or fixed bank deposits.

With the release of ansaar.in we are observing a rise in the curiosity of Indian Muslims in equity investment activities.

We wanted to thank all of them for becoming curious. We wish them to make profits in equity investments and be wary of risks too!

More Muslim investment in Indian businesses means more voice in corporate decision making.

Corporate decisions impact political & social aspects too!

For example, major Indian media houses openly insult Muslim sentiments on live television.

These hateful media houses are fueled by the money of Major corporates.

With Muslims becoming owners of equity share in these corporates — they will have the capacity to question these corporates!

With the current situation where Muslims have almost no ownership of stocks in these corporates — the Muslim concerns are not important for them and are easy to ignore.

Can I negotiate my VC Term Sheet? — Introduction
By: Jamie Goldstein
Tags: Term Sheet, Funding, VC, Deal, Venture Capital

Just got a term sheet from a VC firm? Congratulations — that’s no small feat.

Beyond the price and amount of investment, it is likely to have come with a long list of terms and conditions. As we’ve written in the past, we think many of these create a misalignment between Founders and Investors. That’s why we’ve chosen to lead rounds by buying Common Stock — but this remains very rare in the industry.

Most lawyers will tell you the term sheet is “take it or leave it…that’s just the way it is.”

But is that really true?

Your ability to negotiate is a function of the style of VC firm, how much they like you and the opportunity and how competitive the round is.

What are these “terms and conditions”, why should you care, why do the VCs care and what room if any exists to negotiate? We share our thoughts below.

Before we dive in, it is worth noting that the “best” investor for you may not be the one who is most willing to compromise on the terms below or the one who provides the highest pre-money valuation. In fact, the best firms in the industry don’t win deals on terms or price. They win on reputation, value add, and rapport with the Founding Team.

As Bill Sahlman from Harvard Business School famously said: “From whom you raise money is far more important than the terms.”

But if you can get those “best” investors to the table, you still may have a chance to improve the terms. Over the next week, we will release 5 blog posts to discuss:

Part 1: Increase to the Option Pool

Part 2: Preference / Preferred Stock

Part 3: Anti-dilution Clauses

Part 4: The Board of Directors, and

Part 5: A few other Important Pieces

As always, we’d enjoy your questions and comments.

What I learned about Negotiations…
Tags: Mba, Negotiation, Dealmaking, Deal

Yesterday my eyes opened to some simple but valuable concepts in the Negotiations class taught by professor McCabe at Georgetown University. He says, “In Business, as in life, you don’t get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate” and “ Your biggest yet unrealized power on a negotiation table is the ability to walk away from the deal” .

Quite often best deal is “No deal” but to most ears the sound of ‘No Deal’ has a lower face value although No deal might be a far better business decision in many cases. Reflecting back on my career as a sales lead, admittedly, I am guilty as charged. Some of the larger deals I struck certainly deserved deeper competitive research, ambitious goal setting and a rehearsed negotiation strategy. These 3 constituents, in my opinion, are thematically underrated among the leadership in mid-sized businesses.

It is amazing how top-line is attributed far importance than profitability. However, I somewhat get it. When you’ve come this far and gotten the client to sit across the table don’t want to leave without shaking their hands. Sure, the disappointment cost of a ‘No Deal’ can be damaging but I’d say, in business, practice detachment to let your firm grow healthily. Fall in love with the economics of the deal and not the deal itself.

Research across countries and cultures suggests that setting ambitious goals before entering the negotiation room improves the deal outcome for you. However, to confidently defend your ambitious price you need to ‘Prepare, Prepare and Prepare’ before you sit across the table with that demanding client or the fastidious JV partner. Unfortunately, most leaders spend less time preparing for a revenue share contract negotiation worth $300K than on inquiring and approving a $300 expense voucher.

Well, with this introspection and education, I hope to adequately insist on the importance of preparation before inking that desired deal in future- be it a sales contract, a salary negotiation or a strategic partnership.

The madness of Mandis
By: Muhammad Ismail
Tags: Business, Festivals, Deal, Pakistan, Animals

It’s that time of the year again. The taste buds have slowly but surely begun to warm up in anticipation of the food fest that is about to take place in the upcoming days. BBQ scenes are being planned and the butchers are being scanned. The spirits are high, the budget is low. Amidst all this, a big day is upon us. The day to buy the animal to be sacrificed. And this choice, by no means, is an easy one.

As I gear up for the long road of Mandi that lies ahead, I am positive that I will come out successful in my mission on the other side of it. The journey begins with the market survey. The goal is to have an idea of market rates so as to extend reasonable negotiations with the sellers.

“Kitney ka hai [How much is it].”

“35 ka [It’s 35(grands)].”

*Awkward nods on either side*

Both parties move on; in pursuit of striking better deals. Their is hope. More importantly, there is time.

“Is ka kitna lagao gey [How much will you price it at].”

“Chacha waisey tou 40 ka hai aap ko 38 kur day ga [Uncle although it is 40k but you can take it for 38k].”

This time there is a strong shake of head. On to the next seller.

The people flood in as we talk out. The spaces fill up as we walk down. The sun is setting. The deals aren’t. The talks switch from casual to serious. A little more urgency on both the ends as the sun plans on resting for the night. The place is not resting anytime soon.

“Bhai jaan is ka btao [Bro how about this one].”

“33”

“Jaiz baat kro [Talk reasonable].”

“Tussi gal bao [What do you say].”

“27,28”

“32 aakhri ho jasi [32 will be the last].”

That was close. But not close enough. We go ahead.

The bright of day has been overtaken by the dark of night. The torches are out and so are pickpockets. The discussions get long. The deals can’t go wrong. The mind games have begun. The sellers have sensed that their window of maximizing profit is narrowing down. The buyers know their time is running out. As we encounter another man;

“Kitney ka baichna hai [How much will you sell it for].”

“30 ka bhai jaan [Of 30(grand) bro]”

“26 ka dena hai [Will you give it at 26?]”

28 do aur bakra lo [Give 28 and it’s all yours].”

The deal is done. And I am done for the day.
How to deal with “offers in region of”?
By: Alejandro Brega
Tags: Dealsourcing, Deal, Askingprices

How to deal with asking prices “in the region of”? When I see these, I usually shy away from them because I think the vendor isn’t at all flexible in his/her asking price, and usually, they are much more than what I want to pay.



For example, I just saw a house listed “offers in region of £75K”. Would it be too rude to offer between £65 and £70? Should I just go for it and not worry about offending the vendor?



“If you’re not embarrassed by your first offer, it’s too high”



If the property is new to the market, an offer of £65k is unlikely to be accepted. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make it though, unless you want the property and there’s clearly a lot of interest.



If it’s been on the market for a long time at that and maybe been reduced previously, I’d probably start somewhere between £58k and £62k depending how much work was required (you can always overestimate that to your advantage) and then go up slightly.



Offers in region doesn’t necessarily mean they have to be in the ‘above’ region. Could be below. Best bet is to find local comparables of houses that have sold in the area within the last six months

Respond, do not just send a reply!
By: Christopher Wittmann
Tags: Deal, Entrepreneurship, Sales, Entrepreneur

A story I have experienced recently is the following: Someone wanted to sell me something, and she asked me if I had time on Wednesday. As my calendar was filled with many appointments and lots of work already, I said I do not have any time this week to meet her. I presume what she has read was something like, “I do not have any time on Wednesday.” She has sent me a message back which said that we could meet on Thursday, too. Why does she not reply to my email correctly? I have sent her a message and made it clear that I do not have time that week. So why would she offer me another appointment in the same week?

That mail was the moment she had lost the deal. She is a young entrepreneur like I am, too, and I explained to her that I am not interested anymore at the moment, because her response made me feel like she had no interest in adding value to my company. With that response, she made me feel like she would sell me anything to get a deal closed, and I was not on her mind — only the money she wants to get from me seemed important.

And this is not how you close deals. We, as entrepreneurs, need to make people feel confident when closing a deal with us. They need to see the value we will add to their business. Will we create them some new prospects, make workflows more efficient or increase their business in any other way? Only then will they close the deal with us. But it is even more. It is not only the product, software, or service we provide potential clients need to be convinced with before closing a deal. What is even more critical is our personality. The moment they believe we are untrustworthy, it will be almost impossible to get that deal closed.
66 percent of Americans say they love to shop for this reason
Tags: Research, Discount, Online Shopping, Shopping, Deal

Nearly seven in ten (69 percent) Americans would also go as far as calling hunting for discounted items a “sport.”

And according to the survey, many Americans consider themselves to be pretty skilled shoppers. Three in four Americans actually think of themselves as “experts” when it comes to finding an item discounted.

Josh Meyers, Slickdeals CEO said, “This survey illustrates what we witness with our Slickdeals audience every day. There’s a significant level of excitement and entertainment value around discovering a great deal.”

For many, buying online can almost be more fun than buying in stores.

In fact, 66 percent of Americans polled say they feel excited just knowing something is currently being shipped to them.

Getting our hands on something we’ve had our eye on for a while can be an instant attitude booster — 65 percent of Americans say they are actually nicer to people after they buy something they want.

So what are the items that make us happy?

The research showed that our number one “happy buy” is clothes, with half of the respondents (50 percent) saying they get a rush when they shell out on part of a new ensemble.

Shoes came in a close second with 46 percent saying it gave them a nice jolt of happiness after completing the transaction, and rounding out the top three was a new computer or laptop (40 percent.)

Meyers added, “Getting a great deal isn’t just a rational exercise in stretching the dollar, there’s an element of gamification, where consumers derive pleasure from the thrill of the hunt. By tapping into Slickdeals’ crowdsourced platform, shoppers can not only experience the thrill of a good deal, but also gain validation and purchase confidence that this is something they should be buying thanks to the wisdom of the crowd.”

TOP 20 PURCHASES THAT MAKE US HAPPY

Clothes 50% Shoes 46% Computer/laptop 40% Electronic Accessories (e.g. headphones) 35% TV 34% Accessories/jewelry 32% Groceries 30% Vacations 28% Video games 28% Kitchen supplies 26% Home Decor 26% Home Improvement (tools, gardening, etc) 24% Takeout 23% Phone apps 22% Makeup 20% Coffee 19% Hair appointments 17% Toiletries 16% In-app purchases 15% Toys 14%

Online shopping offers plenty of advantages to shoppers across the board convenience being amongst the major advantages that it comes with. Today, it is not only possible to browse the net to find what you are in need of, but also possible to pay and have your items delivered to where you are. Of course, some of the services you can enjoy do come with a price, but there are still plenty of ways that you can use to make sure you save a little of your money when doing your shopping online.

Use promo codes

They have become very popular and are some of the best you can use to get discounts on your product purchases. The codes can offer you a great percentage discounts with some making it possible for you to get the goods at half the usual price. The codes can be got online and used in a number of online stores for the products or brands they are designed for. You can sign up with sites offering promo codes so you can take advantage of the best as soon as they are made available in the market through alerts.

Use sales

It is common for retail stores and even brands to offer sales at different times of the year. Some of these sales can be as a result of wanting to bring in new inventory hence the need to do away with the old. The sales can particularly save you money on clothing and jewelry and other fashion items. Through such sales you can get even designer items at very low rates. The only thing you ought to do when looking at the sale is ensuring that the quality of the products on offer is good enough. Choose only reputable stores and brands for such sales so you can still enjoy quality even with the slashed prices on the items.

Use coupons

They work the same way as codes and they can save you a great deal of money when shopping online. So many manufactures are now offering coupons as part of their marketing plan and you can be among the first to try out new products from reputable brands using the coupons and saving some money in the process. When choosing the coupons, however, ensure that you are aware of important factors such as the expiry dates and terms of using the coupons because they come with restrictions.

Use cashback sites

Samsung may soon stop including charger with its phones
By: Naga Vara Prasad
Tags: Samsung, Charger, Smartphones, E Waste, Apple

Rumors say that Samsung may stop including charging brick with the smartphone.

Before Samsung, Apple may be the first brand to initiate this move. As we know, if Apple institute any move then it’s very likely that other tech companies may copy the same. And the first brand to copy Apple’s move is Samsung (Maybe).

So it is reasonable to first talk about Apple and their move.

Tech specialists say that Apple’s move regarding this is to reduce E-waste.

In 2014, 60% of the E-waste is dumped into the landfills and 40% is recycled. In 2016, 44.7 million tons of E-waste is produced which is equivalent to building 4500 Eiffel towers.

So Apple is trying to reduce the electronic waste generated by these accessories i.e. chargers (and earphones) because almost everyone these days own a smartphone so chances are they already own a charger.

If they stop providing these accessories then only the people who need a charger or earphone will buy and the rest will use their existing one. By seeing the above graphs we can appreciate this move. But there is another story behind the scenes.

That is price-cut, as expected. Smartphones around the globe are sold in millions (quantities) so even if the manufacturing cost of the charger is less, brands can save a lot of money.

What do I think about this step?

Personally I think this is a good step in the long run but for now it may not be a great move because these days most people have 15–20W chargers and 50–60W chargers are yet to become common in the public.

So if brands start removing chargers when most people have chargers >=50W then it makes sense (Especially for Android users).

If Apple is removing the charger in the smartphone box then I have no complaints because Apple have been providing 5 Watt chargers since the launch of iPhone 4. I think most people already have at least 15W charger.

So I won’t hesitate to not see the whooping 5 Watt charger provided by Apple.
iPhone12 will come without the charger, really !
By: Akshay Busa
Tags: Charger, iPhone, Apple

Recently the rumour caught my attention and it’s actually not the rumour. Apple is really considering not to add charger and headphones in the box. Wait what ! That’s ridiculous. The iPhone is not coming with the charger ? Even may be getting rid of the headphones from the box we can understand but the charging cable an a power brick? Those are the necessary things for any of the phone. It’s like selling a burger without fries, it’s basically a combo where you have to add the second one. So we need to buy a charger separately ? we have never ever seen any phone coming without charger so why ? why Apple don’t want to give a charger with the iPhone ? The real fact is that the most of the person buying iPhone has already the iPhone and the same charger he already has which he might be getting with the new iPhone. So for the people like these it’s like ah! we don’t need it.

Actually the chargers and other similar stuffs which people used to trash after getting a new phone is creating a gigantic amount of e-waste. Some articles linked below suggests that these chargers creates e-waste of 300,000 tons per year. That is huge. So not providing the charger with the iPhone can decrease a good mount of e-waste.

Also another thing might affect because of this step is the price. Apple can reduce the price as there will be no cost for charger and headphone. Also Apple can add a discount for the people who want new pair of headphones or new charger with the purchase of their new iPhone. So basically this can be a revolutionary step like the headphone jack. Apple started not to giving the headphone jack and now many companies are copying it.

Apple can react two ways. First is that they don’t talk about it at all so when customers buy and it gets uncovered by the customers. But most likely to go with the second one and it is to announce on the stage with the environmental view. Apple always talks about how their processes are environment friendly, so this can be a great step towards it.

But the question is why now ? why not earlier ? May be the answer is that there are rumours going on that iPhone13 will not have any ports and completely wireless ! So basically this might be an idea to get customers used to with not getting the charger with the phone.

After all, we are talking about the rumour but this is something on which I am keeping an eye and can be true.

TCL adds 8K models to its 6-series smart TV lineup and moves to a gap-less mini-LED backlight array

TCL adds 8K models to its 6-series smart TV lineup and moves to a gap-less mini-LED backlight array Jasmine Jan 16·2 min read

Later this year, TCL will launch TVs featuring its third-generation mini-LED backlighting system, dubbed OD Zero. OD stands for “Optical Depth” and zero indicates the size of the gap between the backlight array and the LCD panel; in other words, there isn’t one. Eliminating this gap should reduce light bleed through adjacent zones, boosting overall contrast and improving black levels.



The company will offer this latest version of its highly granular backlighting, which employs thousands of tiny LEDs instead of hundidreds of larger ones, in its new 8K UHD 6-series TVs. Older 4K UHD 6 series models will remain in the lineup, so don’t assume that 6-series means 8K when you shop.



[ Further reading: TechHive's top picks in smart TVs ]As do other vendors, TCL claims upscaling will increase the percieved resolution of 1080p and 4K UHD content. If TCL’s AiPQ engine uses the same tricks I’ve seen from Samsung, LG, and now Sony—it will. Content in those lower resolutions really does appear to be significantly more detailed on an 8K set when properly processed.



TCL TCL’s 4-series smart TVs will be among the lowest-priced 85-inch TVs on the market.



TCL also plans to go big this year with it 85-inch XL-series TVs. The company has added an 85-inch model to the 4 series (the $1,599, Roku-based 85R435) for the early spring, followed by a quantum dot, Roku-based 85R745 (pricing to be announced), and eventually an 85-inch mini-LED, wide color gamut 8K UHD model.



The 85R745—and we’re assuming the 8K UHD variant—will include Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, as well as variable refresh rate and 120Hz HDMI input support for game-play.
