Re: The more religious you appear to be..
I didn’t mean that.
It is not about the need to do somethings as well.
It is more about: somebody is covering her hair properly, and I am not.
Pssht, that doesnt mean that she is a better muslim than I am.
Islam is more than covering your head.
She must be thinking that she is the perfect muslima.
More blabla all in the head stuff…
I am talking about that kind of attitude.
I will leave the many real life examples. How many times haven’t I seen on the forums that people make fun of somebody who wears burqa (even if it isnt required religiously, those who do, do it because they want to observe full pardah). People calling them ninjas and what not.
Why do they do that?
It is all out of insecurity. It is the ‘If I am not doing a certain thing, then why is another doing it?’ -attitude.
Unconsciously comparing yourself with the other. And then feeling bad about yourself somehow. And then putting the other down by either calling him/her names, or questioning his/her intentions.
