Modern day example would be Saudi women not being allowed to drive?
hmm the reason they cant drive..i dont think has so much to do with culture
there a fatwa out by sheikh bin baz Rahimullah on that
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned.
(Sura Ya-Seen 36:83)
Arab culture has nothing to do with Islam. One is a culture, while the other is a comprehensive system which transcends all cultural barriers. You don't need to be arab to be Muslims. Islamic practices are Islamic, not arab, not indian, not african. The only connection is that today, a large percent of places with arab culture also practice Islam.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Surely I was sent to perfect the qualities of righteous character" [Musnad Ahmad, Muwatta Mâlik]
So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned.
(Sura Ya-Seen 36:83)
thats islam but people misinterpret it as a thing oppresive muslim men do to their women <_<
