What do you see the future being for asians and what can be done too support people of different backgrounds coming together.
can you plzzzzz reponse because i really need to know
Please do understand the difference between integration and assimilation first.
Sure do integrate but do not assimilate.
Integrate means you have your own identity, your own culture, morals, religion, ethics and others in the group have theirs.
You share all this with them , you share your food , your values , your culture , your morals etc and they share theirs. If you like it and can have a taste of it as allowed by your own values do have a taste of their food, culture , morals, standards, ethics, etiquettes etc.
Do laugh with them do cry with them , do share your and their interests as far as your and their interests are same or their interests do not clash with yours.
Their norms can clash with yours that is where you draw the line.
Assimilate means you loose all your morals, standards, culture, ethics , etiquettes and adopt theirs that is not good.
Can one really integrate without compromising ones values...
Integration for me is adopting the values of the nation state so in england that would be adopting values such as individual freedoms and democracy...integration is when you justify your actions based on these values...
So for instance when a hijabi starts justifying her hijab based on the values of individual freedoms as opposed to her creed then i feel that is integration...it is adopting the values of the state and a lot of these values contradict islamic values which place soverignty with Allah and use Quran and hadeeth as a source of reference...
Islam in its real form is a big threat to integation as it disagrees with man made law...integration is making decision based on this man made law...
Pir sahab maafi chahta hoon. Na danastgi main ghalti ho ga-e agar mujhay pata hota kah aap is mozooh par apney qeemtee rai say mureedoon ko mustafeez farma chukay hain to main aisee ghaltee nahi karta.
Aianda ahtiat karoon ga. Meray ley-a dua farmain.

Look it above. You seems to be confused with what Islam allows and what is prohibited. Do not go with what mullah says , there is so much confusion and misconception mixed with true Islam. When followers of Islam dominated the world Mullahs put strictest possible standards and norms as per their liking in place . Islam is very liberal religion, trust me, read, read ,read and think on your own. You seem to be a person with your own brain.
Well its as a result of integration that people believe in this nonsense that is the Jihad within and the idea that Islam fits in with Western values...
And yeah i have read quite a bit...Muslims have a history of Jihad through force and the concept of Islamic state was that the basic concept was that soverignty belonged with God and not with man...im not suggesting it was never misapplied but at no point was the idea that man made rule or individual freedom a concept...
Its only as a result of integration that understanding of Islam has debated and people believe that Western law fits in with Islamic law...
