Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
while its true that some arabs have some sort of superiority complex, and I have actually even heard it from Kuwaitis I knew, I had to set them straight.
There is no basis in Islam for superiority of someone whose family has been muslim for 20 generations or one who became muslim 20 minutes ago. its all in one person's deeds.
at this point i agree with u mr.fraudia
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs

Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
^ It really does not matter that who acted more precisely and 'faithfully as a Muslim' on the political stage in the couple of decades because the crux of this answer simply does not match with the question posed.
Since, I guess that the query has been properly though fragmentarily answered, it should suffice.
To add a pinch of salt to the dish, some Arabs have a special mindset and thus, a resulting underlying theory, largely initiated and bombarded by the Pan-Arabist movements throughout the Arab world in the past recent decades which has largely affected their attitudes towards other peoples especially non-Arab Muslims. A bit of study into the subject may help to reveal and explain the recent attitude of some Arab leaders, subsequent parties and ordinary followers alike.
Thanks.

I agree
but
we kick butt
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
Okhay i want you guys to explain this to me. And please please explain it logically. do not start accusing other religions or anybody else. What i think may be a misunderstanding as i do not know much abt islam. I want you guys to help me clear my misunderstanding, if it is one. If you start accusing, then it would just strengthen my ideas. so explain it and dont curse.
Arab is a race and Islam is a religion and
Arab race was there before islam and then that time they were not muslims
they followed islam and they become muslims
and sameway you are indian/pakistani and after following islam you become muslim
is there any difference in both
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
That is the first verse that came to mind when I read the initial post. :k:
Arabs or non-Arabs don’t have superiority over each other except for the one who has taqwa (piety).
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
Why does it matter what our ethnicity is? How does being Arab make one a "pure muslim"? Islam is not hereditary.
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
fatima I had to classmates 1 Arab 1 Irani
Those morons always had that argument that who's language was greater.
They use to convince me that 1-Arabic is greatest language of all
irani guy use to say 2-farsi was the greatest
Problem here is If arab tells me that arab culture is better then paki culture.. what I am I going to say???? unlike iran we don't have a huge culture.
What exactly is our culture???? since we are so naive to give up on our 5000 old harapa/mohonjo daro/texla culture.
According to Dr. Dani(Einstein of social sciences) Its never proved that above mention civilization were held by draverd(south indians).
No one know who they were. So should just promote it as our own and tell people that we have 5000 old culture and not just 60 year old culture.
Where we had most advance civilization of the time.
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
Why do people even bother to argue over superiority of ethnic groups? It's not like it's a choice you've made or a side you've chosen...you are born into an ethnic background, and so I don't see why people argue over who's culture is better, simply for the sake of argument.
Now, religion, on the other hand (which should never be associated with culture), is a choice that one makes and it is a belief that can be supported and it is worth arguing over.

The thing called culture has its strongest relations with a religion. If you don't want to associate it with religion, you can't separate it either.
Sidelining cultural traits of a group of people as a distinct and separate entity from their religion only leads to the die-hard Talibanistic propoganda and practice. Wasn't Iqbal much wiser than these so called religious men?

Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
I find that to be just a bit contradictory. =)
Re: South Asian/pakistani MUslims and Arabs
I did not advocate disassociation of culture from religion. I was merely quoting you within my lines.
My point is clear. . .I guess :)
