21 July 2024 Surah 24 v59-61 27th session The Verse of Food 'O Foolish one, recite The Verse of Food.' Ibn Abbas (ra) recites Surah 4 v29 'O believers do not eat up property unjustly unless via trade'. and states this is abrogated by Surah 24 v61 'there is no sin if you eat in your own houses...' Ibn Abbas (ra), the unbelievers try to make you doubt Islam , you don't eat that which is killed by Allah SWT (where animals die of natural causes) but you eat what you kill with your hands. Thr Sahaba related this to The Messenger ﷺ, Surah 6 v121 is revealed - 'Shaiteen inspire their friends to argue with you..' The food of The People of The Book is made permissible, Surah 5 v5. Food of a Siddiqui - 'intimate friend.' Hassan Al Basri (rah) in the absence of the market trader, eats dates & figs. Hisham asks 'O Abu Syed, how can you reconcile piety with this eating? Hassan al basri (rah), 'O foolish one recite The Verse of Food'... (verse 61) 'O Siddique Qum'- a friend whose soul & heart is at rest. Harith ibn Amr (ra) was away and asked Malik ibn Zyd (ra) to house-sit, Harith (ra) returns and finds Malik (ra) in a weak state... 'I have not taken a morsel from the house', The Verse of Food is revealed, verse 61. 'Eat together so Allah SWT blesses the food.' The piety level of The Sahaba was extremely high so Allah SWT lowered it.

Today, Clare is joined by Dr. Khadija Siddiqui, a wife, mom, cardiologist, and entrepreneur of Pakistani descent. She spent her early years in the UAE before moving to America. Khadija and Clare discuss how to overcome overwhelm so you can grow and evolve as a person while still fully caring for your family. KEY TAKEAWAYS Women are universally encouraged to play small. When you reject this, you achieve more. Growing as a person requires life changes, some of which can be difficult. Who you are depends, in part, on the role you are fulfilling at a given moment. Embrace all of who you are, rather than shutting down aspects to conform. Levelling up in your personal life automatically means you achieve more at work. BEST MOMENTS ‘Embrace the imperfections and stop worrying about it.' ‘You almost have to wear two different hats based on where you are showing up.' ‘Anytime we want to change something, our mind wants to resist us.' GUEST DETAILS Dr. Khadija Siddiqui is a dynamic force in the world of high-performance coaching, seamlessly blending her expertise as a cardiologist, entrepreneur, and devoted mother. Born and raised in a patriarchal culture, she courageously navigated the challenges of moving countries and balancing her multifaceted identity.  As the creator of the Holistic Success Blueprint, she empowers high-achieving professionals to rewire their limiting thoughts and beliefs, breaking through sabotage patterns to achieve success in all elements of their lives. Her unique framework ensures participants take concepts to action and integration.  Passionate about her own continuous personal development, she is also working on her NLP certification and learning about advanced meditation and manifestation techniques. Dr. Siddiqui believes in the dynamic flow of life, where each day calls for a unique balance of her various roles.  Connect with Khadija at Facebook.com/ksiddiqui and Instagram at @dr.ksiddiqui ABOUT THE HOST Clare has moved countries many times throughout her life, from China to Taiwan, Nigeria, Zambia, and the USA. She has also travelled the world for various businesses and now wishes to impart her advice to others to save them time, money, and energy.  Clare follows three principles central to her endeavours. First, she looks outward internationally, working with people overseas or of different nationalities. Second, she is obsessed with communication, having learned French, German and Mandarin Chinese. She also teaches English and works as an editor for others' work. Clare is passionate about making a difference through her coaching in the world of personal development.  CONTACT METHOD www.kayproofreading.com  www.linkedin.com/in/clarekay   https://www.facebook.com/KayProofreading Podcast Description When you move for a new job, to live with someone after a long-distance relationship or to explore the benefits of a new lifestyle, moving countries occurs as an opportunity, but it still might be a bumpy ride. Moving Countries 101 presents a paradox of moving to a new destination, but it being all about the journey: the ongoing experience of having moved countries.  Clare and her guests share the human stories of an ancient undertaking in modern times. Moving countries prompts change, and change provokes being unsettled emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. On all these fronts, moving countries promotes observation, opportunity, and discovery.

Mohammad was on his first job out of medical school when he realized it wasn't going to work out. Working as a radiologist, one day he took matters into his own hands and began what would, decades later, be his job—giving lifestyle advice.

What did Mohammad's father say that helped him walk away from a good job? Find out how the physician inside him stayed alive and well until he finally found the best fit for his skills, interests and conviction. Learn some things about the business side of medicine and how it's not alway in the patient's best interest.

Episode 171: Postpartum Blues, Depression, and PsychosisFuture Dr. Nguyen defines and explains the difference between baby blues, depression, and psychosis. Dr. Arreaza added comments about screening and management of these conditions. Written by Vy Nguyen, OMSIII, Western University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific. Comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Introduction.Pregnancy is one of the most well-celebrated milestones in one's life. However, once the baby is born, the focus of the family and society quickly shifts to the new member. It is important to continue to care for our mothers and offer them support physically and mentally as they begin their transition into their role. Peripartum mood disorders affect both new and experienced mothers as they navigate through the challenges of motherhood. The challenges of motherhood are not easy to spot, and they include sleep deprivation, physical exhaustion, dealing with pain, social isolation, and financial pressures, among other challenges. Let's focus on 3 aspects of the postpartum period: Postpartum Blues (PPB), Post-partum Depression (PPD) and Post-partum Psychosis (PPP). By the way, we briefly touched on this topic in episode 20, a long time ago. Postpartum blues (PPB) present as transient and self-limiting low mood and mild depressive symptoms that affect more than 50% of women within two or three days of childbirth and resolve within two weeks of onset. Symptoms vary from crying, exhaustion, irritability, anxiety, appetite changes, and decreased sleep or concentration to mood lability. Women are at risk for PPB.Several factors are thought to contribute to the increased risk of postpartum blues including a history of menstrual cycle-related mood changes, mood changes associated with pregnancy, history of major depression, number of lifetime pregnancies, or family history of postpartum depression. Pathogenesis of PPB: While pathogenesis remains unknown, hormonal changes such as a dramatic decrease in estradiol, progesterone, and prolactin have been associated with the development of postpartum blues. In summary, PPB is equivalent to a brief, transient “sad feeling” after the delivery. Peripartum depression (PPD) occurs in 20% of women and is classified as depressive symptoms that appear within six weeks to 1 year after childbirth. Those with baby blues have an increased risk of developing postpartum depression. About 50% of “postpartum” major depressive episodes begin before delivery, thus the term has been updated from “postpartum” to “peripartum” depressive episodes. Some risk factors include adolescent patients, mothers who deliver premature infants, and women living in urban areas. Interestingly, African American and Hispanic mothers are reported to have onset of symptoms within two weeks of delivery instead of six like their Caucasian counterparts. Additional risks include psychological risks such as a personal history of depression, anxiety, premenstrual syndrome, and sexual abuse; obstetric risks such as emergency c-sections and hospitalizations, preterm or low birth infant, and low hemoglobin; social risks such as lack of social support, domestic violence in form of spousal physical/sexual/verbal abuse; lifestyle risks such as smoking, eating sleep patterns and physical activities. Peripartum depression can present with or without psychotic features, which may appear between 1 in 500 or 1 in 1,000 deliveries, more common in primiparous women. Pathogenesis of PPD: Much like postpartum blues, the pathogenesis of postpartum depression is unknown. However, it is known that hormones can interfere with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and lactogenic hormones. HPA-releasing hormones increase during pregnancy and remain elevated up to 12 weeks postpartum. The body receptors in postpartum depression are susceptible to the drastic hormonal changes following childbirth which can trigger depressive symptoms. Low levels of oxytocin and prolactin also play a role in postpartum depression causing moms to have trouble with lactation around the onset of symptoms. The USPSTF recommends screening for depression in the adult population, including pregnant and postpartum persons, as well as older adults. Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) can be used in postpartum and pregnant persons (Grade B recommendation).Postpartum psychosis (PPP) is a psychiatric emergency that often presents with confusion, paranoia, delusions, disorganized thoughts, and hallucinations. Around 1-2 out of 1,000 new moms experience postpartum psychosis with the onset of symptoms as quickly as several days and as late as six weeks after childbirth. Given the high risk of suicide and harm, individuals with postpartum psychosis require immediate evaluation and treatment. Postpartum psychosis is considered multifactorial, and the single most important risk factor is first pregnancy with family or personal history of bipolar 1 disorder. Other risk factors include a prior history of postpartum psychosis, family history of psychosis, history of schizoaffective disorder or schizophrenia, or discontinuation of psychiatric medications. Studies show that patients with a history of decreased sleep due to manic episodes are twice as likely to have postpartum psychosis at some point in their lives. However, approximately 50% of mothers who experience psychosis for the first time do not have a history of psychiatric disorder or hospitalization. Evaluation.Symptoms of postpartum blues should not meet the criteria for a major depressive episode and should resolve in 2 weeks. The Edinburg Postpartum Depression Scale which is a useful tool for assessing new moms with depressive symptoms. Postpartum depression is diagnosed when the patient presents with at least five depressive symptoms for at least 2 weeks. According to the DSM5, postpartum depression is defined as a major depressive episode with peripartum onset of mood symptoms during pregnancy or in the 4 weeks following delivery. Symptoms for diagnosis include changes in sleep, interest, energy, concentration, appetite, psychomotor retardation or agitation, feeling of guilt or worthlessness, and suicidal ideation or attempt. These symptoms are not associated with a manic or hypomanic episode and can often lead to significant impediments in daily activities. Peripartum-onset mood episodes can present with or without psychotic features. The depression can be so severe that the mother commits infanticide. Infanticide can happen, for example, with command hallucinations or delusions that the infant is possessed.While there are no standard screening criteria in place of postpartum psychosis, questionnaires mentioned earlier such as the Edinburg Postpartum Depression Scale can assess a patient's mood and identify signs of depression and mania. It is important after a thorough history and physical examination to order labs to rule out other medical conditions that can cause depressive and psychotic symptoms. Disorders like electrolyte imbalance, hepatic encephalopathy, thyroid storm, uremia, substance use, infections, and even stroke can mimic a psychiatric disorder. So, How can we treat patients who are diagnosed with a peripartum mood disorder?Management.On the spectrum of peripartum mood disorders, postpartum blues are the least severe and should be self-limiting by week 2. However, patients should be screened for suicidal ideation, paranoia, and homicidal ideation towards the newborn. Physicians should provide validation, education, and resources especially support with sleep and cognitive therapy and/or pharmacotherapy can be recommended if insomnia persists. Regarding postpartum depression, the first-line treatment includes psychotherapy and antidepressants. For those with mild to moderate depression or hesitant to start on medications, psychosocial and psychotherapy alone should be sufficient. However, for those with moderate to severe symptoms, a combination of therapy and antidepressants, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, is recommended. Once an effective dose is reached, patients should be treated for an additional 6 to 12 months to prevent relapse. In severe cases, patients may need to be hospitalized to treat their symptoms and prevent complications such as self-harm or infanticide.Most SSRIs can be detected in breast milk, but only 10 percent of the maternal level. Thus, they are considered safe during breastfeeding of healthy, full-term infants. So, you mentioned SSRIs, but also SNRIs, bupropion, and mirtazapine are reasonable options for treatment. In patients who have never been treated with antidepressants, zuranolone (a neuroactive steroid) is recommended. Zuranolone is easy to take, works fast, and is well tolerated. Treatment with zuranolone is consistent with practice guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.While there are no current guidelines to manage postpartum psychosis, immediate hospitalization is necessary in severe cases. Patients can be started on mood stabilizers such as lithium, valproate, and lamotrigine, and atypical antipsychotics such as quetiapine, and olanzapine, to name a few. Medications like lithium can be eliminated through breast milk and can expose infants to toxicity.The use of medications such as SSRIs, carbamazepine, valproate, and short-acting benzodiazepines are relatively safe and can be considered in those with plans to breastfeed. Ultimately, it is a decision that the patient can make after carefully discussing and weighing the pros and cons of the available medical management. While the prognosis of peripartum mood disorders is relatively good with many patients responding well to treatments, these disorders can have various negative consequences. Individuals with a history of postpartum blues are at increased risk of developing postpartum depression. Similarly, those with a history of postpartum psychosis are at risk of experiencing another episode of psychosis in future pregnancies. Additionally, postpartum depression can have a detrimental effect on mother-infant bonding and affect the growth and development of the infant. These children may have difficulties with social interactions, cognitive development, and depression. In summary, following the birth of a baby can pose new challenges and often is a stressful time for not only the mother but also other family members. Validation and reassurance from primary care physicians in an empathetic and understanding manner may offer support that many mothers may not have in their close social circle. As the first contact, primary care physicians can identify cues and offer support promptly that will not only improve the mental well-being of mothers but also that of the growing children.___________________________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 171, “Postpartum blues, depression, and psychosis.” These conditions may be more common than you think. So, be alert during your prenatal and postpartum visits and start management as needed. Psychotherapy and psychosocial therapy alone may be effective but do not hesitate to start antidepressants or antipsychotics when necessary. Make sure you involve the family and the patient in the decision-making process to implement an effective treatment.This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Vy Nguyen.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: China x AI Reference List, published by Saad Siddiqui on March 13, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Background There are several China-focused AI reading lists / curricula out there (e.g.: AI governance & China: Reading list (2023), FHI Syllabus (2020), (Basic) Chinese AI Regulation Reading List (2023)) They are either relatively brief or somewhat outdated. Our reading list aims to provide a more comprehensive set of key resources when it comes to learning about China, AI safety and policy We incorporated readings from these reading lists where it felt relevant This list is based off a community-generated set of readings that were used for a 6-week AI and China discussion group run by the China & Global Priorities Group in 2023 You can access a version of the reference list on our website too. Structure The list is designed as a longlist that can act as a starting point for folks looking to dive deeper into this topic and various sub-topics - it is not a snapshot of the 3 most important readings per topic area The entire list is broken down into key themes Domestic AI Governance International AI Governance Key actors and their views on AI risks AI Inputs Resources to follow We have added in commentary where we felt it would be useful to do so (e.g., we were made aware of potential factual inaccuracies or biased views) Within sections, sources are arranged roughly in order of relevance, not chronology. Sources earlier in a section are more foundational, while later ones are either primary sources that require more context to analyze or older reports/analysis. Sometimes we put related readings next to each other. Ways to get involved Feel free to suggest additional readings using this form - we're doing some amount of vetting to prevent the list from ballooning out of control Join the China & Global Priorities Group if you want to be notified about further discussion groups organized Caveats around sources and structures Epistemic status: This resource list was put together in a voluntary capacity by a group of non-Chinese folks with backgrounds in China Studies and professional work experience on China- and/or AI-related issues. We spent several hours on resource collection and sense-checked items based on their style, content and methodology. We do not necessarily endorse all of these works as "very good," but did exclude stuff where we could see that it is obviously low quality. There are many sub-topics where we struggled to find very high-quality material but we still included some publications to give interested readers a start. We expect that most of our audience will not be able to read Chinese easily or fluently, and as such we have provided many English sources. However, it's important to remember that gaining a deep and concrete understanding of this space is really hard even with Chinese language skills and lived experience in China, so readers without those skills and experiences should be cautious about forming very strong views based on the select few sources that are included here. Machine translation is useful but imperfect in many ways. Machine translation will not be able to tell you the significance of specific word choice, which potentially requires deeper knowledge of what terminology means in the broader ideological context of the party-state (this is especially true for official statements and documents). Moreover, official English versions of Chinese government documents sometimes differ from the Chinese version! What is Lost in Translation? Differences between Chinese Foreign Policy Statements and Their Official English Translations, Mokry, 2022 China is not a monolith; sources you read that claim that 'China does X' should be treated with caution. Different actors within China have different aims and while it's true that the party-state ...

Most people want to give their children the best start in life, but what if that "best start" could be determined *before* birth? That's what today's guest Noor Siddiqui believes -- her Mom progressively lost her vision due to a degenerative retinal condition, which made her determined to find a way to prevent her own children from the same fate. A computer scientist by training, Noor has since founded Orchid, the world's first full-genome sequencing platform for embryos conceived through IVF, that enables parents to screen and select the embryo with the highest probability of good health. So as you can imagine, this opens up a lot of fascinating questions, both technical and ethical, and as someone with prospective parenthood on my mind, this was a great opportunity to pick her brains about where the future of reproductive technology is going, and the ethical dilemmas it poses.
