The day he lied down to defend a free-kick, that's when I felt that football would be kind to him. And it actually did a million times.
One reason his teammates will die on the pitch for him.
โThey said my hat-trick has scattered everywhere. Maybe I should switch to scoring a brace and 3 assists.โ
โA brace and 3 assists? That's more evil!โ
@AlbicelesteTalk@DSports Yeah, Argentina's football is so low intensity that it only won the World Cup, two Copas Amรฉrica and the Finalissima. ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ท๐
Did you know that the Prophet Muhammad (๏ทบ) mentioned the exact number of joints in the human body over 1,400 years before X-rays, microscopes, or modern anatomy?
For centuries, anatomists debated the exact number of joints in the human body. It was only through modern anatomical studies that science confirmed a remarkable fact: the adult human body has 360 joints.
Yet, our beloved Prophet (๏ทบ) said:
ยซโEvery one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and sixty joints...โ
(Sahih Muslim 1007)ยป
Allah (SWT) has blessed us with 360 joints that allow us to move, bend, work, and pray. In gratitude for this incredible blessing, the Prophet (๏ทบ) taught us that each joint deserves a daily act of charity.
How can we give 360 charities every day?
Islam makes it beautifully simple:
โข Say SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, La ilaha illAllah, Allahu Akbar, and Astaghfirullah.
โข Enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil.
โข Help othersโeven removing a harmful object from the road is an act of charity.
And if you want to fulfill the charity for all 360 joints in just a few minutes, the Prophet (๏ทบ) gave us an easy solution:
ยซโTwo Rak'ahs offered in the morning (Salat al-Duha) will suffice for all of that.โ
(Sahih Muslim 720)ยป
SubhanAllah! What a beautiful religion that teaches us gratitude for every blessing Allah has given us.
May Allah make us among those who remember Him often and act upon the Sunnah.
Share this reminder and earn the reward of spreading beneficial knowledge.
๐จโค๏ธ @leoparadizo: "Leo Messi, who was having a hard time is being supported, backed and accompanied by a group that admires him, respects him, and loves him.
He has many friends within the squad. The coaching staff is the same, and even the president of the AFA and the chef were also close to him. Messi has felt truly very well accompanied and even yesterday when the fake news broke out from Buenos Aires, Messi was also well surrounded at all times, he was never left alone during those hours.
"That's what they were telling me, he was never alone, he was never locked up by himself in his room. You know that in the Argentina camp... everyone shares, they are double rooms except for Messi's, Messi is alone. And they never allowed him to stay alone in his room, neither yesterday nor in the previous days, he was always accompanied. And this is a detail that clearly speaks to how solid the group is on a human level." ๐ฆ๐ท๐ซ
Messi had won almost everything football had to offer. Multiple Ballons d'Or, Champions Leagues, league titles, scoring records that looked impossible to break. Yet none of it was ever enough for his critics because he hadn't won with Argentina.
Every international setback became a circus. Every lost final was used to question his mentality, his leadership, his greatness. He was mocked, ridiculed, and told that everything he had achieved meant less because one trophy was missing from his cabinet.
Through all of it, Messi remained humble. No public campaigns. No excuses. No endless self-promotion. No attempts to rewrite the standards being used against him. He took responsibility.
He carried the pressure of an entire nation on his shoulders.
Suffered heartbreaking defeats, retired from the national team in pain, returned, suffered more disappointment, and still kept fighting until he finally won everything people claimed he needed to win.
That's why the gaslighting from Ronaldo fans sounds f0olish to the hearing because when Messi was going through it and getting trolled, many of the same people now asking for empathy had none to offer. They were too busy using his pain as ammunition in a rivalry.
If Messi cound endure, Ronaldo has absolutely no reason not to endure as well, until he eventually delivers.
Always know the rules of the game before you play it.
Peterson was ignorant about the rule and he paid dearly for it. The trade would have gone his way also. It is what it is.

Michelle and I loved reading to this bright group of kids today!
We hope this new Chicago Public Library branch at the Obama Presidential Center will be a place where folks come to read, check out books, and connect with one another for years to come.
