Re: Loss of Spirituality after Visting Pakistan
I wish that were true!!! But it really isn’t - the environment always affects your spiritual state no matter how strong you are, though I guess stronger people have greater resistance to it..
The type of people she was with aren’t what you would call the wrong crowd. It was just different families (who are known as good, respectable people) in those three cities.
I think I’ve portrayed it badly - they didn’t outright ridicule her or anything like that. Nor did they blatently discourage praying or anything. Its a much more subtle thing - a subtle attitude difference towards worship and spirituality. Like it’s an old fashioned thing - not in line with this craze to be Westernised..
^ Hareem, I think you’re probably right. I don’t wish to blame the entire country for it, so yeh it was probably the behaviour of family relatives affecting her. I was just wondering whether it’s a widespread thing, which other people have experienced..?
