^Turkey lies in Asia. Less than 5% of its territory <>, lies in Europe. BTW, Caucasus also lies in Asia.
^ Ok fine so it belongs in Asia Minor/Central Asia but it still should not be considered as an entire nation being a part of Europe where as only a fraction of it is in the Causasus, as per your statement.
BTW, are we not going off topic here?
I know it doesn't work like that. Only the whiteman has been given the right to divide the world according to his own wishes. If the whiteman says Pakistan lies in South Asia then Pakistan is an integral part of South Asia and if he had included it in Central Asia then it would be a part of central Asia.
^ Do you have no pride or backbone??? Will you so easily let the "White Man" rule your (and your peoples') life/lives???!!!

It's the truth, it's not necessarily something negative, just another difference between India and Pakistan.
I'm not that fair myself.
what is the point muslims should look
mid-eastern to be true muslims?
no wonder indonesia and bangaldesh
never given that importance despite having
huge population.

Thats a different matter altogether. Indonesia is geographically located in East Asia. It mashaALlah has the largest Muslim population. All Muslims are equal, middle eastern or not. So as I said earlier, what difference does it make if we are in Middle east or south asia. We are part of our beautiful south asia, that we once ruled, and we are also part of middle east, from where we are proud to get our faith.

Don't put words into our mouths, nobody said that and neither did anyone say Pakistanis are necessarily better looking than Indians (what a joke :D) because of their fairer skin or taller heights.
Nobody needs to look like Middle Easterners to be true Muslims but they do have to distance themselves from Hindu culture, traditions and philosophy or any other form of Polytheism and Disbelief to be true Muslims.
You can’t claim to be a Muslim and be proud of your Kaafir heritage at the same time, whether that be Hindu, Pagan-Arab or Greek, you do away with it once you accept Islam and it’s irrelevant.

our bengal and punjab live under one country how you lost your bengal?
your punjab and benagal separateds
all these ummah talk is cheap.
Hindu conspiracy, plus you lot got in the way separating us.
and it had nothing to do with the bengalis not being allowed to set up govt despite having swept the polls.
indians are pretty racist and skin color concious, but i think pakistanis put even indians to shame..
Well said :k:
may be you should look in to independant
newsources and actual newspapers published
in 1971
^ Well I have done enough reading on the subject to be able to decipher what is and what isn't.
^ Naadir, you’re getting too technical, my friend. What matters is that we are all Muslim and if it came right down to the nitty-gritty of it and it was a matter of life and death, honestly, I wouldn’t care whether Pakistan fell under Central Asia or South Asia because at the end of the day, we are Muslims and THAT above all else unites us as one nation under the flagship of one religion (mash’allah). Let’s just be proud of that.
Now give it a rest, folks! ![]()
Yeah sister, of course I agree with you, being a Muslim is what matters, I just find the differences fascinating, they shouldn’t be a cause of hatred or looking down or up at anyone at the end of the day all Muslims are part of the Islamic bouquet, whether you are a Gujju or a Bengali or an Afghan or Iranian or Arab or Punjabi or Hispanic or White or whatever tribe, we’re one.
The South Asian and Central Asian thing I mentioned is true race wise, culture wise, language wise, landscape wise and geographically. The odd overlaps and exceptions are bound to be but in the case of the majority its true and that’s what’s the determining factor not a few people here and there.

OMG I can’t believe you wrote “Gujju” It’s “Gujarati” lest someone gets offended. ![]()
^ Gujju or Puki..hmmmmmm. :D
LOL, no it’s Gujju che.
