Questions for desi atheists

Re: Questions for desi atheists

@TLK

1. When you find a significant other, do you perform Nikah (civil marriage)?

2. When you lose a love one, do you go through Muslim funeral protocols (ghusl, kafan, namaz–e-janaza, burial in Muslim graveyard)?

3. Do you eat pork or avoid it to your best ability?

I think most of the Desi atheist would say yes to the above (if they chose to answer honestly). My point is, all Desi atheist are Muslims trapped in atheist bodies ..

**becharay nunnay munnay masoom loug, fuzool main struggle kerte hain to act atheist ..

**yes i said ACT.

I’m going to ahead and ignore your condecending tone about dead loved ones (which makes you beneathe most human beings), as I can answer your questions.

Question 2: My wife and I buried our daughter, who was 2 months old, around the time you posted this. Neither of us practice any form of religion nor do we hide it. I don’t have any family, but she does. Her family is shia, so we held a shia burial event for her family’s sake. There are no islamic inscriptions of any sort on her grave. I had no objection to any of it and she was already gone. I just wanted to be done with.

Question 3: As far as eating pork, well… I don’t eat pork for the same reason as an average american doesn’t eat a fetus (which is a delicacy in some parts of japan). I just wasn’t raised with it, so I have no want for it.

Question 1: We had a nikkah for several reasons. Muslim countries are very shallow in the sense that, if we decided to move to pakistan or say malaysia/indonesia/uae…we will have degraded rights as a kaafir couple. So after consulting with a muslim lawyer friend of mine, we decided to have an official nikkah as well.
