Culture Vs Islam

[S_87]

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

 

[Ibn Syed]

What about wearing niqabs?

 

[Ansar Al-'Adl]

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.

 

[Ibn Syed]

I agree. Jazakallah for clarifying that Ansar.
