There are so many benefits claimed of drinking own urine. Search at your own convenience. Would you believe and do that?
That just mean you are addicted to this act. That’s all. Not every person has to get addicted to it. Not everyone who does not do that is jahil or extremist.
**You **condemned people who believe it is related to hinduism..and not islamic. Try not to be smart here and use false logic.
Just as you are free to do whatever you like, people are free to not agree with you.
Go ahead and stay on you head upside down all day long. Who cares.
Since when EVERYTHING which happens in big city of ‘pakistan’ like ‘karachi’ became the standard of what is islamic and what is not???
I would not like people to do heavy exercise like that because it is potentially harmful. Happy now?
Vigorous exercise is not healthy my dear. People may even die from that.
Now: Try answering my earlier post line by line like I did.
You have to agree that ALL those who say Yoga is related to hinduism are extremists.
i never said everything thst happens in cities is the dtandard for what is islamic .. im sying that the yoga camps were only alowed to open if the governemnt alowed it .. n paksitan is an islamc state so if yoga was so ‘haram’ the government would not allow it or close it down right away or there woud be protests of movlis running up and down streets burning it down ..
n i never said said that anyone who does not do yoga is jahi or extremist .. i said people who are equating yoga to worshipping the hindu gods is creating drama for no reason .. yoga is a way to bring your mind n body toegther n fo rit to be more at tune so u can focus an feel more peaceful n relaxed n happy .. it is NOT just for hindus ..
in fact if u know anything about history then u will know that yoga started with shakyamuni in teh buddhists era .. n busshists did not worship anybody .. any gods .. they just live the acetic simple life .. and meditation helps them concentrate n focus so thy dont focus on wroldy things
u shoukd not try to twist my words to change the meaning whihc is obvious jus tso u can try to make ur argument appear stronger
the truth is the truth .. doesnt matter how much u scream n yell n put down others n lie ..
If you are the one living in some kind of illusion thinking Pakistan is a islamic state then it is the your problem or anyone who thinks like that.
Allowing brothel houses in Karachi does not make brothel houses or prostitution islamic. Right? Prostitutes pay taxes there just to let you know.
Yes you did. You called names to those who do not agree with your idea or think it is not islamic. Obviously they do not do yoga.
Your ‘teachers straight from india’ are your ideals. Fine. More power to you. Off course they will not tell you it is related to hinduism. Keep it to yourself then. Try not calling others jahil or extremists.
Look buddy. This can be discussed further somewhere else.
The discussion is not about what yoga is related to in strict sense.
It is NOT islamic.
So those who think this way are no way jahil or extremists.
Let people believe what they think is religious and what is not. A person who is not believing on your idea is just different than from you in this regard.
You showed that very clearly that in fact you could be jahil or extremist in calling those people these names. That’s all.
I did not. Read your own posts.
Yep. The feeling is mutual and reciprocal.
P.s. Forget it. No detailed comment on your typing and perhaps your keyboard. You know get a life comment you wrote earlier means what?
theres no paying to any god there .. they wrer onyt aking about conepts of birth/rebirth .. so what if they mnetioined a god.. they R NOT praying to him or any other god..
no actually they wouldnt .. yoga teachers even straight from india say thi id for everyone good for mind n body .. they're teaching it for benefit of everyone not for any selfish reasons .. but u proud people cant see ahead of your stereotypical narrow minded view .. how typically jahil .. u guyz probably do lotsof things which the quran tells u not to do n dont think twice about it n here start making noise when people practicing yoga for health benefits n peace of mind ..
reminds me of those jahil extremist molvi types ..
get a life u people .. fight for something worthwile .. dont make up nonsense
Seriously? If I do yoga and am not Hindu, and don't believe in it, does that mean I am committing some kind of sin? I'm just exercising, not worshiping the sun.
There's a big difference between going through the rituals and actually believing in a religion. Yes, yoga does stem from Hinduism and I realize a lot of people practice it as a religion but the way it's taught and practiced in most studios in the west is hardly how it was originally practiced as a form of religion. To most people it's just exercise that also allows you to pause and reflect for a few minutes; a form of meditation if you will.
And I realize a yogi might be offended that people use yoga just for exercise but that's a reality. And there are proven benefits of yoga, I know that some NFL players practice it to improve their performance.

Sin or not sin is no one to make judgement on something which is not specifically mentioned.
However, the discussion is about weather it is Islamic or not.
One has to be pretty naive not to see that it is not Islamic at all.
As for those who believe with proof it is not islamic, they are correct.
Anyone is free to do whatever he/she likes. Free will.
As for the benefit. I already answered partly. The sports people also use drugs/illegal or harmful substances to enhance their 'performance'.
Please provide substantial documentation of how many great sportsmen perform (ed) yoga to enhance their perfromance as opposed to those who are/were great ones who still do not.
Anyone can make false claims based on their respective beliefs.
Not sure why people have to be so defensive/ critical or call names to others saying something is not islamic.
So from all of your discussions (minus a few), it seems that yoga has its roots from the Hindu religion. There certainly are benefits in yoga but one must not forget that by practicing yoga, you are stepping into a religious conflict???
So do you think if you do an activity that is good for your health but has nonIslamic associations, then as a muslim you should avoid it all together?
well i think it might weaken peoples faith, to be honest. the more you mix with people of other faiths, more you'll start to think oh.. these guys seem so nice, i can't believe they are going to hell. maybe religion is a load of bull.. its happened a lot of times, and im not kidding this time. yoga classes are dangerous, and so are public schools.
