Re: Islam in Pakistan

Why were your eyes looking at those scantily dressed women? Where was your heya when you were judging those scantily dressed women? It is amazing how our religious people are so keen on looking at these women.
Recently I was in Dubai eating out in a Pakistani restaurant. There were four mullah's sitting on a table in front of me. I watched with disgust as these apparently pious people did not miss staring at any women or girl passing by.
It is also amazing that our religious community never think about other issues in the society like religious extremism, inter-sect killings, favoritism/nepotism in religious groups, etc. They never raise voice over the mala-fide use of apostasy or other pseudo-religious laws. Apart from a very few, almost all the religious people I have come across are insensitive hypocrates.
Firstly, Im a girl, so I wasn't checking out the scantly dressed women out of desire, I was disgusted! Have u seen the size of billaboards in karachi? they r HUGE, and almost all of them have a women on it (even when theyr'e advertising Honda motor cycles!).... Islam came to elevate the status of women so that we would be judged on our intellectuality rather then our looks, and our country is taking us back to the days of Jahiliya that the Prophet SAW brought us out of!
Now just bcoz a bearded man is checking out a girl... the fault is in him only, and he SHOULD fear Allah for that... this is exactly what i'm talking about actually... wer'e muslims who dont follow ISLAM...
I have yet to hear ANY deobandi/ ahlul sunnah/ jamaat e islaami/ tableeqi, etc etc to actually endorse extremism... whether that be shia/ sunni or suicide attacks. Most of these ppl say that there should be NO concept of Sindhi/ Punjabi/ Mahajir, etc etc, however, they do say that Indians should allow Kashmiris the plebisite they were promised by the UN, they do say that the behaya is ruining out qaum, they do say that the constitution of the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN should be be based on the Shariah (is it too much to ask 4 that or should we change the official name of our country) etc etc.
What I cant understand is why we had to split from India in the first place if we weren't going to implement Islam fully in this land of ours.... we couldv'e still been a part of India... pray at our homes, fast in the month of ramadan and gone on hajj/ umrah... apparently that seems to be enough 4 a lot of ppl!!!!!
