A series of Blogs and Notes on the Ayats of Quran; Verses of Bible; & USA Muslim Economy. Please excuse any errors from me (in some notes thoughts are all over the place) the good of it is from Allah.
Aoudhubillahi minal shaitanir rajeemi x ∞³³³¹¹³³² ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends.
A film on Pompeii and Herculaneum is not complete with any of these points missing:
1. 79 AD
2. Ayat,
"Never did We destroy a population, but had its warners -" ~ Shu'ara 208
"Nor was thy Lord the one to destroy a population until He had sent to its centre a messenger, rehearsing to them Our Signs; nor are We going to destroy a population except when its members practice iniquity." ~ Qasas 59
"Nor would thy Lord be the One to destroy communities for a single wrongdoing, if its members were likely to mend." ~ Hudi 117
That even though the Quran was Revealed after 79 AD those 3 Ayat are integral to a modern reflection of Pompeii on film. Hollywood did make it a love-story theme, however, missed some integral greater social healing measures. I want to stop and reference the movie Masada to highlight that people were called by and named after Pompeii like a naturalization, when in the takeover a Senator Official of the 10th Roman Legion was Pomponius Falco overseeing the siege.
3. What was the living Word of Allah (swt) at the time of 79 AD? It would be the Injeel (Gospel) all the way down through to the Torah (Laws of Moses). And that was the actual message that reached the center of the Populous' of Pompeii and Herculaneum. How many if any of the Disciples were alive? When had the last Disciple passed away? Who was the likely Disciple that went to Pompeii and Herculaneum?
4. The Mount Vesuvius' eruption was not just an act of nature but an act of God, and directly tied to God due to the charges that God had against the manifest and festering social activities of:
A. Corruption B. Idolatry C. Hedonism D. Rejection of the Words of God.
If these integral elements to the reflection on film are not integrated in the script (to the appropriateness of making the points, though not necessary to go explicitly graphic)) then a "Service to God to avoid the pitfalls of Ancient Pompeii and Herculaneum." has not been given to the benefit of greater community and society at large and was simply done to make money. A Service like this should have an integral break-even point objective with profits as a bonus.
5. Objectives:
A. Taqwa B. Ikhlas {Primary Law of Ezekiel's Temple, the Abrahamic Houses of Worship and of each of the 7 Heavens} C. Tauhid D. Ihsan E. Yaqeen F. Zakaha {Purification, etc.} G. Shifa
It is not that every Hollywood film has to be about Holy Scriptures, but on something like Pompeii I think it is a moment. Film and television assists in programming minds positively but also negatively. In the case of the negatives, they are not hard to list but the real problem is the residual effects.
They can cause Faith-Outreach-Burnout due to having to assist about things and interests that weren't there before. So, for Faith leaders which I don't claim to be one but, Hollywood coming correct for them at least once a year can be a relief to those services and not like being handed orange uniforms to clean highway greenspaces to get early parole. Only good for all the system-made cleanups can burnout some people.

It took me some time in reflecting on the significance of Frankincense and Myrrh. I was wondering what the mystery about it was and why the Wise Men decided that it was as valuable as Gold as well as, as valuable as their Supplications to Allah (swt) for Blessings upon the Messiah. It was a simple, complex.
It is Tauhara for Ikhlas, and for Salaat. It was being used to purify the approach to Allah (swt). Allah (swt) will be repulsed by foul, odorous smells. But also, by the defilements of idolatry as in Ezekiel 8 when He leaves out the East Gate towards the East in Ezekiel 10.
Ezekiel or Dhul Kifli (epbuh) Ministered on the Zakaha as it pertains to the Holiness of the Place of Worship to God through Zakaha - Purification and Charity. But the Purification has under it, as if it is an umbrella, Ikhlas, Tauhid, Ihsan, Taqwa, and Yaqeen that we can easily infer by what happened between Ezekiel 8 and Ezekiel 10. All of that is under the umbrella of Zakaha or Purification. Allah (swt) said in Malachi that it can get to the point where the incense offerings can be a stench to His Smell.
Najas is something solidly covered in the Surah of Taubah on it being banished from approaching the Kaaba, Mecca, and that implies a banishment from Qiblah itself. Which just means that it is not a free and indefinite practice. It just can't be a prolonged and indefinite journey with Najas like a mobile gas and torture chamber. Tolerances cannot just be bankrupted in people regarding Najas as they align with the Qiblah. They might not think we notice, but many signs point to that they/we do.
It is so noticeable that we literally can rebuke the "no need to work (support trade and business with each other) anymore" theory solely on the need to purchase cleaning and maintenance supplies. Inside the body, outside the body, the home, yard, etc. The "we don't need to work" theory can be easily overruled on purification but that is not the only thing that Tauhara and Zakaha lead to. They also lead to Shifa or Healing from Allah (swt). Without Zakaha there really is no road to Heal. Because on the foundation of Healing is Zakaha and Tauhara and this is confimed in the Book of Ezekiel (epbuh and upon Nabi Muhammad and all other Anbiya I mention) in the passages towards the end on the River of Healing. But Tauhara and Zakaha are Integral to the Summons of Allah (swt). He'll leave the person(s) like at Ezekiel 10.
If we lose Tauhara and Zakaha then we lose the building blocks of Shifa itself. Shifa has within it, Classical Conditioning of positive reinforcement for positive behavior that Pavlov got from the Proverb of Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh) "If you continue to reward good with evil then evil will never leave your house." and no good will ever come to you. Classical Conditioning from Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh) is also an integral building block of Shifa or Healing. Last thing Frankincense and Myrrh cannot be burned within the house. Those resins will make everything in the house sticky including computer parts, mechanical devices, coat walls, tables, etc. But if you burn it outside you have to make sure that the winds do not set the grass or anything flammable on fire. I would sit the charcoal burner, not an electric, inside a metal mesh (holes) garbage can about the size for an office desk outside. Exact type I use in the last image. I always get 2 cans. 1 for recycling the other for charcoal burners. The holes stop any vortex action from wind lifting up problems, and from pushing over the garbage can which then lead to the charcoal being blown around.
Keeping Faith personal is right, but sometimes we have to disavow or divorce not only a spouse in writing but ideas, concepts, behaviors, etc. There are times a person has to say, "I'm not married to the idea."
Wearing a Faith locket or pendant symbol outside the shirt is not as "keeping it personal" as wearing it under the shirt (tucking it beneath the shirt) or close to your heart and chest.
1. Sometimes there arises the need to divorce or disavow a spouse or ideas in writing (verses below).
2. Sometimes there arises the need to attest to His Holy Words to proverbial pay rent to God, or proverbial pay taxes to God, or tithes for being able to access His Spirit, or for being able to broadcast to the masses in various mediums. That is a Gift from God to broadcast. If we don't there is no Spirit from Him, and He Will Make the spirit come from the animals, the Beast, Ad Dawwab.

3. Attestation is a purification or Zakaha. Adding vid on Zakaha and Zakaa Falinafsihi (on the benefit to the soul and spirit of person attesting and viewers listening, correcting the testimony, etc.) below.
4. Attestation is a requisition to Allah (swt) for Help, Answers and Assistance from Him (swt). But it is not in bragging or boasting but to get something from God, to appease God, to please God or "Fie Sabil Allah". But also, because people who have a Faith group in common will talk about Faith and give other reminders between themselves. But the Creator Gives us ways to ask Him for something. In doing them in sincerity and certainty (with Yaqeen) we don't want it considered vain or being a showoff. There is another reason. We are asking Him for something. Adding Malachi verse and Dhikr reflection below.
Video is of a Dictionary Reflection on Zakaha in Nabi Ezekiel's (epbuh) name.
Some have decided they wanted to get around that (receiving spirit from the Beast) and mine the spirits of other people of Faith. That is forging a lie against God as in text graphic below. But just like shopping at Costco, concerning the Spirit, just because your neighbor bought food from Costco it does not mean that tapping into their refrigerator is still "shopping at Costco". Once it is in your neighbor's fridge it is no longer Costco's and cannot cup of sugar "Spirit" from our neighbors. The neighbor got Spirit from God and sourcing the neighbor for it is not Sourcing God. That belongs to the neighbor now so that they can work, study, fulfill obligations and engagements, etc. that they need to. Loyalty is to God and His Holy Spirit as Sources with worship only being to God; and the Spirit is Sourced as Water is sourced without worshipping to source it. We give Glory and Praises to God over the food, water and Holy Scriptures that He Gives us to Sustain us. We are sustained by those 3 things and give Glory to Him but do not worship them for worship is for God alone. The Messiah appended to the 10 Commandments, "Thou shalt not blaspheme the Holy Spirit" and that is my interpretation of its meaning loyalty to the Holy Spirit, worship is for God alone, and the subjects of God besides Him and His Holy Spirit being sourced or mined for the spirit are thus being deified and that is the blasphemy part in the "not blaspheming the Holy Spirit".
Blog post: "Ezekiel or Dhul Kifli (epbuh) Reflection x ∞³³³¹¹³³²"
The Spirit of God can be connected to and sourced in many lawful ways, but one of them is reading. Allah (swt) said, "...the Holy Spirit brought it down" Allah (swt) said, "Proclaiming is also reading." Thus, every week in the Houses of the Worship of God, His Holy Words are supposed to be proclaimed, witnessed to, reflected on in order to connect with His Spirit. If not, then there is "No Spirit" from Him and subsequently He Will Make those types of people derive or mine the spirit from the Beast. So, the proverbial paying rent, or proverbial paying taxes or the giving of tithes to God is a very important survival skill.
But otherwise, it is about keeping Faith personal, but the real principle there is more the not compelling others. Faith to people of Faith is nature and natural. The real convo is not on keeping it personal, it is who we are, but on not compelling others against their own wills and not involving people, including the people of Faith, in plans that they did not consent to be involved in. That again is forging a lie. That is also when disavows and divorces start taking place. The humble "I didn't agree to that." starts happening. Najwa. It is because while we do not want to compel others to Faith, we do not want others to compel us away from Faith.It is a double standard to be able to enjoy telling people, "Don't impose your religious views on me", but at the same time enjoy the freedom to impose non-religious views on the persons of Faith. Faith can become excessive, extreme, fanatical, dictatorial and so that has been their concern but at the same time they can't give "Carte Blanche" to ideas of deviance, evil, wickedness and rebelliousness. They have to not advance that and create a nightmare spiritual climate. They have to not frustrate righteousness and advance evil, wickedness and rebelliousness.

Below is from a recent post along this thought with vid:
" That notice on depletion of the ecological health and balance of the land and returning to being good stewards of the land [(as well as the people of the land) which is largely centered around allowing God to replenish the land] was a mic drop moment. That is also tethered to Truth programming of the minds of the populace by Hollywood, who should give tithes to God for being given the ability to broadcast from Him. This was the main warning given in the Book of Haggai. I'd suggest at least 1 Cecille B. DeMille's standard Classic per year coming out of Hollywood to the Glory of God and to reprogram the minds of the populace with breakeven points as the goal and anything more is a bonus. I'd recommend it be as close to accurate in terms of the Words of God because otherwise it won't be from His Spirit. Also, the consultations of Rabbinical Scholars, Gospel Scholars and Quranic Scholars in the processes of the screenwriting. Not doing so could also be like running Windows XP Pro on today's internet in some cases of the stories and topics. - https://youtu.be/p4hxPJRxn1A?si=QalP7vD-61sC-M3O "
May the eternal peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon all of the Holy Prophets mentioned in this blog post, as well as, who's Holy Words of God have been mentioned in this blog post. Allahumma Ameen.
