Pakistani, i hate to associate myself with british, because thats like jumping into thoughts of culture and quite frankly i find some of the non muslim british culture disgusting, like smoking with children, alcohol, going to the pub, breakfast fry ups, that sort of thing.
I understand most of you do not wish to be labelled and only wish to be known as muslim, but I think this thread is asking if you belong to a cast or not? If you do, MashaAllah. If not Alhamdulillah
I think we should be referring here to our ETHNIC ORIGIN. The distinction here being that Islam is our religion and our ethnic origin is e.g. Muslim Pakistani (Pathan), Muslim Indian (Surti) etc!
I am half Arab (Father side) and half Pakistani - Pathan (Mother side)!
my mum from india (surti) my dad barbados (stmichealie )
i be same as dad but living in uk
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
I dont blame your sister aisha I feel like abit of an outsider aswell loqq....could pleasse someone clearify what this cast system is all about, is it like tribes or what?
Caste system is things they used to do in the times of Jahiliyya and it has no place in Islam! Its wat the hindus believe in and is very prominent in Asian culture - astagfirullah!
It all stems from your social background - its like working, middle and upper class - but islam treats everyone equally!
Here we are discussing our ethnicity which means which country you belong to through your generations e.g. your father, grandfather etc! So if someone lives in UK but has arab parents they are Arab and so forth!
