Hi all,
You know its,.. very interesting how the masses jump over any thing and every thing that has any affinity with women and parda and ghairat. If that is what Islam is about !. The dilmma is that.. people on the helm of relegion affairs are not educated the correct way. Have you ever tried to profile the local Masjid Imam ... who is he.. let me tell you a majority are kids who didn't make upto the labour force.. because they didn't have it in them.. or their parents were too poor to afford them.. these rejects end up in an all expense paid Madrissah and converted into the mullahs you see today. There are exceptions I agree. But I have not seen one such Maulvi at the Sermon on a friday telling us that we will go to hell because we are a society that
-lives on Bribery
-cheat on our taxes
-don't treat our daughters on the same footing as our sons
-are a corrupt society in the very meaning of the word.
-slob on our jobs,, nobody is ever worried if they have done a day's worth of job to earn the salary (have we done enough, so that it is halal)
-that we do not give enough charity (i am not talking about zakat)
none of the above is a policital agenda,.. mosques around the country are funded by corrupt businessman and the likes (horders and tax cheaters and like wise). All we are concerned about is our women. Is it not pathetic that our mothers and sisters and wives are unsafe in the cities of the Islamic republic,.. for the fear of being oogled at and harrased by MOMINS..
Its un islamic if a 13 year old competes in Olympics.. though its OK to have brothels in each of our cities, for people not to have clean drinking water, education a house to live in, absence of an efficient judiciary, killing the minorities, killing other muslims - That my friends is un islamic. We are the one's to blame,. not the governmant alone for we let it all happen.
I want you to walk into any bazaar of the Islamic republic and see how men at the corners eye women... is that becoming of a muslim,.. is there an islamic responsibility on the men in this country. Maybe most of us are afraid for our women,. and using the Parda card.. just makes sense. dont't it ?
The worst thing is that we the enlightened and the eduated (only 5 % of Paksitani have the privellage to be highly educated = masters degree, or a professional degree) think on the same lines. God help us then, God really help us.
I don't see any of as a good muslim by locking up u our women in the house and saying your five prayers. There is a whole lot to go with that.
