Islam vs western values

iran is a shia country but you see same hijab and burkha imposed there so basic laws that came from the quran are same everywhere. also country laws have nothing to do with islamic laws so i live in a country where dress is not imposed but ask anyone on the street and they would claim that it is better to wear burkha because islamic beliefs are same out there. all of your western freedoms will fade away soon
Why is it desirable to wear a burka or hijab? Is there some harm in not wearing them?
Shouldn't non-harmful actions be allowed?
i am saying you guys take it from the muslims and take credit for yourself especially america
Huh? Wasn't TagliatelliMonster's point that religion had nothing to do with vaccine development, or any technological developments that I can think of.

Please explain how the discovery was stolen and miscredited.
well islam can hold on its own unlike your western values
What 'western' values do you have an issue with? Human rights? Self-determination? Freedom?

I can't wait until I'm far enough along in my Japanese studies to piece together if something is Japanese or Chinese without it needing Hiragana or Katakana with it so I know. And then of course since the Japanese have not only their own pronunciations but also use the Chinese pronunciation of the Kanji I can't wait till I just know it and don't have to wonder which it is.

ahmadis are not muslims and sunni-shia have same beliefs about the basics of the religion. we don't have a caliph or empire but that's political change not religious. slavery was not abolished by muslims but by the westerns and we still believe slavery is a good thing
Ok. Please volunteer to be my slave then. I suspect you are here not for any kind of serious discussion if that is your position.
Who you consider muslim or not is kind of irrelevant.
Caliph is supposed to be the supreme head of Islamic religion among humans. It was a religious position first and foremost, like Pope.

But the doctor you gave as an example received a western education, so then are you withdrawing it? And your avatar is a soccer player who's catholic and from Spain. Western religion, western country, western sport. Shouldn't you be watching Buzkashi, instead?
ronaldo has done sajdah like muslims so he might convert soon. he is more famous than all of your american celebrities combined hell no one even knows any of your american celebrity outside of few english speaking country but the whole world knows ronaldo, go to any starving village of africa where internet doesn't exist and even they know ronaldo. He has more instagram followers than population of america

Yes, you will see babies born to be gay. Homosexuality is a common variation throughout the vertebrate phylum.

I wasn't aware that "Western studies" -- and I'm assuming you're referring to science-based studies -- dictated or promoted values or morality. I'm not aware of any morality being discovered.
I think you're confusing the magisteria of religion and science.

Question: What is morality based on? What is its function?
humans aren't born gay. is it a coincidence that most humans that are born gays are in 21th century but were not seen in past?

it is harmful for society as whole but you westerns are individualistic. there is no human right, it's just western right you are talking about. a woman has the right to go naked or sleep with whoever she wants but then what about the child? they will grow up fatherless and depressed. what about a child's right to know his father or get the love from his parents? you guys don't care about these basic rights. you guys just care about rights involving sexuality and your lingering

Why should anyone care about celebrities or instagram?

Lies. abuse and vacuousness can hold their own. We see such every day. You have yet to offer anything that would indicate that Islam good or true or worthwhile. I feel like I could be a better ambassador for Islam than what you have offered so far.
we have to offer everything that will last forever while you westerns are offering a temporary morale system and bombing everyone who doesn't accept it

One thing that I like about islamic values is that it requires the adherent to remain commited to their contracts/treaties/covenants both to each other and to God.
Shame that did not happen for the Babi. In the three main conflicts Islam waged with the Babi, in Ṭabarsí, Zanjan and Neyriz. They only defeated the Babi because the Muslim broke thier oaths on the Quran. The Babi remaining loyal to the oaths, knowing it was a trick and that many would face torture and death.

These are epic stories many may not be aware of, especially many modern day Muslims.

Interestingly, these values of Honesty, Truthfulness and Trustworthiness have been carried forward.
