Re: Halloween and other occasions
This is hilarious.
I love threads like this.
If your kid is gonna consider converting to paganism because you dressed them up and took them around to get some candy, you have failed as a parent who provides a good Islamic nurturing. I’m sorry, no point sugarcoating that fact. (SWIDT?)
I wrote an extremely long post and addressed each person individually who has such a fiery hate for halloween.
But the bottom line is, if someone wants to dress up their kid and go out “begging” for candy, why not just let them?
It’s not your kid. It’s not your business. You don’t want to do it, thats fine. If someone else wants to, why does it make it something negative?
I went out and bought a Luigi costume for a party and went to another party dressed up as Clark Kent/Superman and I can assure you, NO ONE engaged in worship of the devil or the sun. If you think that makes me a bad muslim, please kindly stick that opinion about me up your bum. How I practice my religion is between me and Allah. How dare you interfere.
If you expect tolerance, show tolerance.
Agree with the last bit but people have failed to recognize this simple fact by rejecting each others’ opinions here. People who celebrate are considered bad muslims by some. People who don’t like celebrating it are being considered as intolerant, foolish and ignorant.
Btw, if you were a desi girl you wouldn’t be allowed to attend the Halloween party.
