what do you hate in islam that muslims are doing wrong, for example

i hate when girls at my school, they wear scarf when they coming in to school, when their fathers are watching and take it off when their fathe or mothers are gone. When its home time they put their scarfs back on.. i am thinking y r u a muslims if u feel ashamed wear their scarf in front of their mates...

that really annoys me.

They are most likely Muslims because their parents are.

When people call themselves 'liberal Muslims'. That really pisses me and makes no sense whatsoever to me. When the Ummah around me try and adapt to this silly Western culture and leave their religion behind is just so embarassing. :thumbs_do

LOL, Brother don't tempt me (to smash my PC) -- I have serious anger issues. :p But on a serious note, I don't understand why people feel a need to fit into the Western culture. Islam is an easy religion, we are told what to do, everything is set there for us and our lives aren't filled with as much worry because we know Allah is always there for us. I honestly can't fathom why you'd want to be considered a 'moderate Muslim'. :? I don't understand these labels, somebody fill me in. There's the moderate Muslim, the fudmentalist (which doesn't sound all that bad to me actually, you're just following the fudmentals of your religion which you're only SUPPOSED to do:rollseyes), and the liberal Muslim. Ahhhh, just stop!!

It seems obvious from what you say that people like Western culture precisely because there is less being 'told what to do'.

I would say there is far more opportunity for free thought outside of Islamic culture. What do you think?

Hello to you too,

First, Islam is not a culture - it is a religion where cultures across the world come together. Saying things like 'Islamic culture' makes no sense. :) Anyway, there is more 'free-thought' outside of Islam, but that's the whole point of Islam. You were put on this Earth to do the things that Allah Al-mighty has ordained for us to do, and you abide by it. If you can't handle doing so, then you simply don't.

OK, perhaps I've not expressed it very clearly. I think one big reason why people of Muslim heritage are attracted to Western life is because of the freedom to think that is offered by the West. If a society is able to think freely, without having to submit to dogma, that society will make progress intellectually, scientifically, economically, technologically and in myriads of other ways too. This is so obvious it hardly needs stating.

Without freedom of thought, the progress of a society is severely retarded. Patriarchal and Scholastic Christianity were directly responsible for forcing Europe to endure the Dark Ages. Now that people in the West have largely learned to ignore the Church when it attempts to stop them from thinking, their societies have prospered in ways that the world has never seen before.

That Islam is easy is only your opinion. For me, Islam is complicated and uncomprehendable.
Another difference is, that you are told what to do (your words) and I0m free to do what I want (of course according to the secular laws)
Now, who has now the better life is also everybodies opinion, isn't it ?

That's a deviated description of the case, you might say They are most likely wearing Hijab because of their parents, but to say they are Muslims because of Parents!!!, that's a biased judge, doing sins does not take you out of Islam, unless you deny Islam commandments completely.

It all boils down to what you value more. If you value a clean obedient life for Allah and then gain eternal reward in hereafter then your a muslim. If you wanna be driven by desires and greed and value more how to fit in and what people will accept you as then you have chosen your religion outside of Islam.

Its never too late to seek Allah's guidance and turn to Him in repentance with sincerity.

Personally, I don't value either of those paths. Don't automatically assume all non-Muslims are 'driven by desires and greed and value more how to fit in and what people will accept you as'. That is a particularly intolerant and unfounded view.

They are sinful in what they do, but they still believe that there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his Messenger, they might be praying, Fasting and doing other Islamic commandments while they are not wearing Hijab, I cannot judge a Muslim faith from sins he do unless he deny completely the commandments of Allah.
In Islam, the sins doers are sinful and not infidels and it's a very great sin if you said about a Muslim that he is infidel while he is not.

It is narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "When a man says to his companion 'O you Kaafir,'1 then this would be necessarily binding upon one of the two. If the man who was called a kaafir is actually one,2 then he would be a kaafir; otherwise3 whatever the caller said would return upon him."

Well, I suppose that's fair enough. Perhaps I judged them too quickly. It just seemed from the original post like they were only pretending to like wearing the hijab to please their parents.

Either way, what they are doing is wrong. Your right in the sense we shouldn't judge people because we don't know what they feel inside.But these kind of people really are only muslim by name. They feel that because they have a muslim name, they don't need to strive for jannah. It's like they think they have a reserved space or something :(

:w: Sister DeepOcean, at the end of the day I really don't think it should be our place to judge because during Yomul-Qiyamah, you will be accounted only for your sins and not others. Also, this could turn into a form of backbitting which is a major sin itself.

Couldn't agree more sister. But nobody here is talking about anyone in particular. Also, this thread is purely discussing the actions which are wrong and are found among muslims today. Nobody is saying they are better or worse than these people.

Neelam92, Yeah around where I used to live a lot of the girl's parents used to force them to wear the hijab and they didn't even know why they had to. They did the same thing that you mentioned, but they just didn't understand why they had to cover themselves up because nobody taught them anything. During madrassa they would memorize surahs in Arabic and they didn't even understand what they were reading -- me included. Perhaps that has to do with it.

Ye, i agree with u sis, over here aswell, in madrassas children and young adults are taught how to read quran, and although this is good in itself, the children are not taught the foundations of Islam and therefore perhaps girls don't understand why they need to cover their heads when they go 2 school and c tht ther peers don't wear a scarf, so this may intimidate them and therefore causing them to abandon the headscarf as soon as they get to school, i think 2 solve this issue, parents and maulanas should explain to the child/ young adult why they are need 2 wear the headscarf before making them wear it. :)

yeh true... but in the end its the parents fault cuz the parents havent taight the kids about Islam they have just sed to them that u have to do this and u have to do that wich is messing with the kids mind and its confusing them. and then when the kid is gonna grown she/he wouldntknow wnaything about islam and wouldnt know what to do with her/his own kid

The Hijaab is something that Allah ta'ala has made wajib of the believing woman however, its not the most important thing in Islam. There are more things that come before it, such as Salah, Zakah etc. These sisters could be ignorant about the wisdom and benefit of the Hijaab. May Allah guide us all,

LOL Rozeena, you're funny sis. :)

I don't think parents should give them a choice of wearing the hijab but they should explain why it is wajib for them to wear it. They should show them Ayahs of the Quran in which Allah states why he ordained for women to wear the hijab because therefore they will feel a need to wear it and understand why it is so important.

If the parents explain these things to their children from an early age, they won't question it as they will UNDERSTAND the reasons behind them. But just lectures will confuse and annoy the child.

great topic by the way.
I don't like it when some Muslims view those who devote their life working in the path of Dawah and Deen as backward and as unable to function in society. they think that the Imams won't be able to eat or earn money if they get an Islamic education instead of worldly education. I get this question so often whenever I invite others to come to our madrassa.

exactly ... i mean its the same for me i just got told to wear the hijab but didnt get told why??? so i like wore it for about a month but then questions came to my mind about it so instead of my parents telling me i went and asked others and i went on the internt to work/figure out why muslim women wear the hijab!
so it was all fine but i do still wish that they would have explained it to me instead of me having to go and work out why
u know what im saying
so i think parents shoudlnt force the kids to wear it instead explain to them why???

can i ask, just what did your parents say when they asked you to wear the hijaab?

my niece is 8, and my sister wants to condition her mind to be that of a true muslimah, so she tells her to wear the hijaab so other boys cant see her hair and then when she grows up (to about 11/12ish) my sister will explain more...



so what were you told :?

well i was 11 or 12 i think and i just got told by my parents to wear the hijab one night and also my parents saw other girls in my school wearing the hijab so they just sed to me to wear it tomoro so i listened to them ( cuz my dad has a heavy voice and can get angry easily) anyway and then i realised why am i wearing the hijab when i dont even know i tried asking my parents but they seem to get the time to explain to me why so i went and worked it out myself lol

so basically they just came out with it and i had friends who wear the hijab so it was okay

I don't think parents should give them a choice of wearing the hijab but they should explain why it is wajib for them to wear it. They should show them Ayahs of the Quran in which Allah states why he ordained for women to wear the hijab because therefore they will feel a need to wear it and understand why it is so important.
wat does wajib mean? it is compuslory to wear hijab? ive asked this qustion probli millions of times lol. Ive read different books etc. but different books state different fings. sum say u have to sum say u dnt as it isnt stated anywhere, but what u do have to do is wear loose clothing and lenthen ur tops etc. so bit confusing?

hijaab is fard wiv a capital F,

do something sis, when you read a book see how close it is to the way of the messenger sallallahi alaihi wasallaam and his companions.

if its close to it, then you can be a bit comfy wiv it, but if you see that its mainly using interpretation and logic and hardly any explenations from the prophet or his companions then you know its not the true islam....


i hope that made sense...

yeah sis according to all four schools of thoughts wearing a headscarf, not showing any shape of the body (via the burqa , a long dress) is compulsary. But the difference is on if the hands/face/feet are allowed to be shown and when etc. Also there are leniencies,

its not very confusing sis, just talk to an imaam u trust who follows the sunnah, and im sure you'll find the right answer inshaAllah :)

People don't understand that 'hijab' isn't just the triangular scarf that you wear outside. It's covering your body from certain males. I often get asked "So, you wear scarf outside?". You don't JUST wear it outside. If a non-mehram enters your house, you wear it there aswell.

yeh inshAllah
but when girls do this sort of stuff it makes Islam look bad in a way
like they have banned wearing the hijab in France and in different countries i feel..thats soo bad


HIJAB=FREE
What is exactly going through ur mind?
As ur standing there staring at me?
You call me oppressed,
simply because of the way I'm dressed.
But don’t u see under the hijab that I wear I do care,
My head is not bare.
But remember I’m wearing my hijab,
And I know that makes me strong,
Even though they think its all wrong.
They don’t know it's kind of tough,
Especially when times like this comes which makes it rough.
They think that I do not have opinions or voice,
they think that being hooded isn't my choice.
I have a voice so I will be heard,
for in my heart I carry His word.
Now it’s my time to turn and say,
‘But don’t u see that I am truly free,
This piece of cloth I wear so proudly,
To preserve my dignity,
All I wanted is equality
Why can’t u just accept me for who I am?
I walk away with a smile and say,
‘I’m the one who is free’
Do you see someone limited?
Or someone free?

boys in my school have girlfriends and then when its namaz time they get their hats on acting they are real muslims.

When i used to go to read quran, they teached how to read namaz, and i was reading namaz and next to me there were these girls who get talking in their namaz to each other, i was well cross, because i couldnt not read my namaz is peace.
i think that completely wrong and they are telling everyone that they are muslims.

:sl: Sis, wajib just means compulsory, Allah ordained for us in the Quran as women to wear the hijab.

“Say to believing women, that they cast down their eyes and guard their private parts, and reveal not their adornment save such as is outward; and let them drape their headcoverings over their bosoms, and not reveal their adornment” (Qur’an 24:31)



Whoever told you that it's not compulsory..errrm, you probably shouldn't seek their knowledge again lol.

As a Muslimah, you can only show your hands and face. This is for the sole purpose of protecting yourself from Zina (fornication, and sex before marriage) by making you stay chaste. By not showing parts of yourself that attract the opposite gender, you are helping them to lower their gaze and also protecting yourself.

May Allah protect all the Muslimahs around the world. Ameen.

Well yeah that's true, it's gonna be wierd just going up to, say like, any random person and saying "Wear the Niqaab!". You can start off with the people you know and explaining to them that the reason behind them wearing the Hijaab is contradictory to the actions they're doing. It's just a matter of educating them and once they realise, who knows, maybe they'll change for the best. InshaAllaah. :thumbs_up

I do understand what you are saying sister. But when I was younger (I’m 20 now) I never used to where the hijab. Then all of a sudden my parents was like “you have to where it!!!!” ( I was like 15)..so I rebelled against the hijab. don’t get me wrong. I totally loved my deen, even though I did not know 2 much about it…………..anyways it is no good telling your children to where the hijab, AND NOT TELL THEM THE IMPOTENSE OF IT, AND THE REASONS BEHIND IT! Because by Allah I did not understand the wisdom behind it, I think my parents was thinking I might not understand even if they tell me, or may be they did not know how to put it in words(if that makes any sense)

Inshallah parents should take there children to sister/brother circles from a young age. Alhamdullilah I have been a practising muslimah since I was 18, n I where the full hijab now. (AND MASHALLAH I WHERE IT PROUDLY)

I promise you majority of them girls are pushed to where the hijab without even an explanation of the wisdom behind it. that’s why they can not do the hijab justice.

Yes, MashaAllaah, well explained. If they knew the very reason to why it's upon them to wear it..then InshaAllaah they'll understand. It's just a matter of educating the people.

Yes, MashaAllaah, well explained. If they knew the very reason to why it's upon them to wear it..then InshaAllaah they'll understand. It's just a matter of educating the people.

JazaakAllaah Khayr for your post.

its cool bro, just felt that i should explain on behalf of them sisters.

and inshallah, we will all learn to educate our kids regarding the deen, (then we might not have a shock when our teenager rebels against the hijab:okay: )

I do understand what you are saying sister. But when I was younger (I’m 20 now) I never used to where the hijab. Then all of a sudden my parents was like “you have to where it!!!!” ( I was like 15)..so I rebelled against the hijab. don’t get me wrong. I totally loved my deen, even though I did not know 2 much about it…………..anyways it is no good telling your children to where the hijab, AND NOT TELL THEM THE IMPOTENSE OF IT, AND THE REASONS BEHIND IT! Because by Allah I did not understand the wisdom behind it, I think my parents was thinking I might not understand even if they tell me, or may be they did not know how to put it in words(if that makes any sense)

Inshallah parents should take there children to sister/brother circles from a young age. Alhamdullilah I have been a practising muslimah since I was 18, n I where the full hijab now. (AND MASHALLAH I WHERE IT PROUDLY)

I promise you majority of them girls are pushed to where the hijab without even an explanation of the wisdom behind it. that’s why they can not do the hijab justice.

mashallah so do i, when i small i used to hate it. so my parents to me that i had to wear it at 9 when i was at home, and now i am sixteen i am used it, and i loved wearing it. my parents told me the reason why i had to wear it so that was. That is true, parents should tell their children the real reason.

i used to been picked on because i wore the hijab, but i didn't care. it was my life not their's. I think parents should tell things about islam before it too late. when they grow older they wont care and will boss thier parents about becasue they are too old to boss thier children.

Well yeah that's true, it's gonna be wierd just going up to, say like, any random person and saying "Wear the Niqaab!". You can start off with the people you know and explaining to them that the reason behind them wearing the Hijaab is contradictory to the actions they're doing. It's just a matter of educating them and once they realise, who knows, maybe they'll change for the best. InshaAllaah. :thumbs_up
that is true, but if your friends or classmates dont wear hijab, and if we tell them " Do you no why people wear the hijab".... they might say to us we dont care. it our choice if we want to wear or not so why are uo butting in". i no they are going to say that because i told someone that and they told me to butt out.

sallam sister's

trust me, saying to another sister that does not where the hijab "y don’t u where the hijab" is like soo the wrong way to go about it.

inshallah firstly discuss our lovely deen in general, the hijab subject should not be the first thing that comes out your mouth. the sister will only feel like your being patronising or something along those lines.

then maybe when you have made her feel the awe of Islam, u should mention how u maybe started praying, so it only made sense that you wear the hijab instead of taking it in a bag and wiping it out during prayer times....(well what ever your story is lol:giggling: .) hope u get my drift

sallam


lol, let me just add one more thing. What if the sister does not even pray. See u just never know, that’s why you should discuss the deen in general first, see what her reasons are and to kind of examine her understanding of the deen, so inshallah you will be able to understand her better (with out judgment, this sister could be better than you and me tomorrow. Only Allah knows)

if you see muslims doing wrong, we should speak out and advise them or keep shut and pray for them. i don't really see what good is going to come out of hating about them on here.

no one's perfect. we all have our flaws to overcome.

I think we are talking about muslims who live in the west here. a Middle eastern muslim would be much less inclined to eshrew aspects of islam like the hijab.

It's Western freedom of the individual that "tempts" a lot of the ummah there in unislamic behaviour.

I agree sis, I'm not sure if sister Neelam was trying to partronise her methinks she was just going the wrong way about it. If you teach people why, then they'll gain an understanding and they will most likely oblige.

Not wearing the hijab may also have to do with the fact that post-911 Islamaphobia became more present. People are just scared of what might happen to them if they wear it - you know terrorism and the whole shebang.

Allah A'lam though!

The Muslim youth need to be EDUCATED. youth circles etc should be available in every community. If young Muslims can spend time with other muslims they wouldn't feel so distant from their religion. Lets face it, School (maybe mixed/state), homework, non-muslim friends and influences...the list is endless. Where does an islamic environment come in??

Given that Islam incorporates every aspect of a believer's life, isn't it natural that Muslims will feel distant from their religion in anything other than a completely Islamic state?

No, it's the environment you're surrounded by. I'm not even close to being distant from Islam because my school is 70% Muslim, I have many mosques surrounding my community, my neighbourhood's Muslim population is around the same percentile as my school. I actually feel more closer to my religion. Seeing the Ummah practice and at peace makes you feel more proud of your religion and makes you a better Muslim. You don't have to necessarily live in Da'rul Islam ( a Muslim country) to feel that way. :)

I suppose I worded my question too strongly. What I meant was 'distant to a certain extent', but from what you say in your post the answer seems to be no.

I'm glad you're happy with the place you're living - that really is good to hear. Canada is often regarded as a tolerant country. I'd love to go there one day. :)

Yeah Canadians are known to be very tolerant and nice people, same with the US. But the fact that Canada hasn't been attacked has a lot to do with it, Americans have to be on guard all the time.
