We are only human, and the nature of us, we love money, we love women
(for men), and there are 1001 things that women love in life...People
will tend to do whatever ways to get what they want in life. The things
that differs is only how they put a limit in certain things, and for me,
it should refers to the religion point of view. All religions (either
Muslim or Christian) want their followers to be good but "STILL", it
depends to the people to make choice because God give 'mind' to people.
And this is one of the reason that we believe in heaven and hell after
life, where we must be responsible on our choice.
I understand generally abt the Western perception to Muslim women. They
will put a limit to be friend or to refrain themselves to them. So it
serves the purpose. This is part of the purpose of wearing hijab.
Anyway, there is a proper way to get familiar with them by approaching
her brother or her father first. There is no limit for the Western to be friend
with the Muslim male, anyway...
Honour killings - Islam is a religion emphasize on family dignity. In
Islam, to kill other people is totally wrong, there always rules as a
guidance. I think mostly 'the honour killing' incurred were depend on
their own judgement, not from the Islamic view. At the first place,
killing people is a big sin, BUT you're allowed to kill people if those
people are dangerous for you and the community. Sometimes, people make
mistakes but there are chances given by God to correct the mistakes.
That's why we called it God is the Most Gracious and Most Merciful.
Islam is only ONE religion and it is the same in all countries, but the
things that make it difference is the culture. For simple example,
Muslim women must cover their body. The Arabs culture, they wearing big
black clothes, Bangladeshis, well you're more familiar with them,
Malaysian, you know my style, moderate. But still there are choices,
either it is right or wrong.
