^ So you think it is ok if they do their honor killings in FATA or KSA?
Re: Not covering head and face with hijab and niqab and dating
These fundo parents should pack up and head to Saudia or FATA if they think they can force kids to live differently than their friends.
If you live in America or Canada your kids will want to be like others. To what extent is the issue. If you want them to live "pure", then leave the land. Don't mess it up for fellow non-fundo Muslims by giving them a bad name.
It is certainly possible to raise shareef kids who are happy to wear the hijab and practice the "fundamentals" of Islam in Canada or the US without moving back, and without abusing or killing your children.
The problem with these people is that they turned a blind eye or were overly strict during the years when they should have been instilling a love of Islam in their children, then one day realize (usually through some sort of 'incident') that their children are up to no good.
As for "honor", Islam teaches personal responsibility. If my daughter sins, it is her sin, not mine. I understand that this is in direct opposition to most Asian cultures, but we have to move beyond these medieval ideas of "honor".

EDUCATION, most of these FATHERS are not properly educated and no nothing about TRUE Islam, the same goes to so called Muslim Ullamah.
What are you trying to prove with this ludicrous statement of yours that...No Muslim Scholar is "properly educated"?

not only the fathers but their daughters aswell
today we ppl call ourselves muslims but we know few abt Islam.Aisa hi hoga when jab chotay,baron ki respect karna shor dein ge
parents ki nafarmani itself is Gunahe kabeera. and unfortunatedly we see few kids listening to parents today
Re: Not covering head and face with hijab and niqab and dating
the prob can only be solved if both(parents & children) know Islam correctly...... that way..neither will do wrong..& no such situation will arise..:)
The best solution :-)
Re: Not covering head and face with hijab and niqab and dating
Seems that forceful measures are big in asian communties...no rehabilitary culture...as offer guidance or try and educate your kids...
Re: Not covering head and face with hijab and niqab and dating
you said it absoultely correct, TLK.
but people are only as ethical as they do.
sadly, aggression for status quo and doubtfulness leads people to lose severely. until that is stopped from happening, the qualities which you high lighted will not come about.
if someone truly cares about a relationship, one will not become so impulsive.

tolerance, patience, positive expectations, leading by example rather than setting rules, more communication, mutual respect and trust, quality time together.
If these things are lacking in a relationship, be it husband/wife, father/daughter or any, it does not matter which religion. nationality or ethnicity you belong to, the relationship is heading toward disaster
