Jalal al-Labbad was executed in Dammam's Central Prison on Thursday. He was charged under the country's anti-terrorism laws for endangering national security, spreading terror, and supporting armed groups, pursuant to the Anti-Terrorism Crimes and Financing Law in July 2019.

Duaa Dhainy, the lawyer appointed by Labbad's family, stated, "We know that these charges are not, at any level, fair. Jalal was forced to sign confessions under torture."

The demonstration of a hydraulic-powered robotic hand by Sanctuary AI in Canada represents a significant advancement in the field of robotics. This innovative technology showcases a robotic hand that not only mimics the functionality of a human hand but also achieves a level of precision that is quite remarkable. Here are some of the potential implications and benefits of this development:
🇨🇦 ROBOT HANDS JUST LEVELED UP IN CANADA Sanctua_1.mp4.mp4

1. Enhanced Robotic Dexterity: The ability to handle delicate objects such as dice without damaging them is a clear indicator that the robotic hand has the fine motor skills necessary for a wide range of tasks. This opens up new possibilities for the use of robots in various industries where dexterity is crucial, such as electronics assembly, surgery, and food handling.

2. Stronger Control for Heavy Industrial Tasks: Hydraulic power provides a smoother and stronger grip, which can be particularly beneficial for industrial applications. This could lead to the development of robots capable of performing tasks that currently require human operators, thereby increasing efficiency and safety in sectors like manufacturing, construction, and logistics.

3. Reduced Risk to Human Workers: By deploying robotic hands in dangerous or hazardous environments, companies can minimize the risk of injury to their employees. For example, robots could be used to handle chemicals, operate heavy machinery, or perform tasks in high-radiation areas, thereby reducing the need for human intervention.

4. Increased Automation in Warehouses: With the rise of e-commerce, warehouses are increasingly relying on automation to keep up with demand. This technology could improve the efficiency of warehouse operations by enabling robots to handle a broader range of items, including those that are irregularly shaped or require careful manipulation.

5. Expanded Roles in Rehabilitation and Prosthetics: The human-like precision of the robotic hand suggests that it could be adapted for use in prosthetic limbs or rehabilitation devices, providing amputees and patients with a more natural and functional way to interact with their environment.

6. Enhanced Human-Robot Interaction: As robotic hands become more human-like, they may facilitate better collaboration between humans and robots. This could be especially important in fields such as healthcare, where patients might be more comfortable interacting with robots that have a more human touch.

7. Design Shift Towards Human-Inspired Robotics: The success of this hydraulic hand might encourage a shift in the design of robotic systems. Instead of opting for cumbersome claws, researchers and manufacturers may now focus more on creating human-inspired hands that can perform a broader array of functions and integrate more seamlessly into human-centric workspaces.

8. Potential for Space Exploration: The need for robots to manipulate objects with precision in zero gravity environments is critical for space missions. A hydraulic robotic hand could be ideal for handling sensitive equipment and materials during spacewalks or other extraterrestrial activities.

9. Impact on Job Market: While the introduction of such advanced robotics could potentially displace some manual labor jobs, it could also create new opportunities for skilled operators and technicians to manage and maintain these sophisticated systems. Additionally, the ability to automate delicate and complex tasks could lead to the creation of new industries and roles that were previously unviable due to human limitations.

10. Research and Development: This technology can serve as a stepping stone for further research in the field of robotics. Understanding and replicating human hand functionality can lead to advancements in artificial intelligence, materials science, and biomechanics, which could have far-reaching implications across various sectors.

In conclusion, the hydraulic robotic hand developed by Sanctuary AI is a significant milestone in robotic technology. Its potential applications and the benefits it could bring to various industries and society as a whole are vast. As this technology continues to evolve, it will likely reshape the way we think about and interact with robots in the near future.

Religion / Deen W: Character Is an Empty ...

Deen W: Character Is an Empty Shell

Not every person who identifies as religious is necessarily a suitable partner, and here's why:
cd4851f2-efe9-4d04-8239-5cfac2be606e.jpeg
The Prophet ﷺ said,

"If there comes to you one whose religion and character you are pleased with, then marry them. If you do not, there will be fitnah in the land and widespread corruption."
(Tirmidhi 1084)

Both religion and character are important, and they are not the same. A person can perform Hajj and still mistreat their spouse. They may pray five times a day and yet speak harshly. They might recite the Qur'an regularly and still be misguided. Religious acts alone do not guarantee kindness.

Being "on deen" does not automatically qualify someone as a good partner. Communication is a skill that requires effort; it is not inherently present in everyone. Outward religious observance can be practiced by many, but Allah has cautioned us in the Qur'an to consider intentions, as someone may appear to be a believer without genuinely embodying that faith.

Character is significant. Do not allow your judgment to be clouded simply because someone prays or dresses modestly. Following the five pillars is the minimum expectation; it does not guarantee suitability.

Evaluate their character. Observe how they act and whether they genuinely practice Islamic teachings rather than merely professing them.

Do not be misled by outward appearances. Seek Allah's guidance and pray for wisdom, and, In shā Allah, you will find a partner who satisfies you in both faith and character, whether as a husband or wife.
