Marrying a Pakistani man ...

Re: Marrying a Pakistani man …

The thing is that we Pakistanis continue to confuse religion and traditions. I think if we on the individual basis quit traditions which are against Islam or undesirable in Islam, we can improve our society and the traditions will automatically become according to Islam. E.g. If families start to give more importance to Nikah than rukhsati, the importance of rukhsati will hopefully be decreased over time in our society.

Thus in order to bring positive a change, we WILL HAVE to become true Muslims and this means following Islam COMPLETELY with giving full importance to parda, hijab, women rights etc. The traditions will automatically be transformed according to Islam.
