Answer to a blog ( About Veil)

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/urdu/2006/10/post_62.html

I read this blog on BBC and felt like answering it.. I don't know whether they'll publish my answer or not... but I know i can publish my answer over here....:

Hmmm..., read your blog quite interesting... and read you talking about freedom and tribal cultures... and how people suddenly change their looks to show they are muslims... But i'll say one thing though... It has become a common practice that people start talking about religious issues as if they are talking about a movie or a drama ... and even that is not enough... they start giving rulings what is allowed and what is not... The religious aspects are not like any other studies ... One has to ask people who have properly studied relgion... rather now-a-days people have just started telling what they think is right in religion... rather than what is told by religion... Quite sad isn't it... I mean..., people talk about freedom and only freedom they can talk about is... to take a woman outside the house.. make it a label to sell products.... and wear short dresses... Please people... grow up there is much more into freedom than this.. The words respect and Loyalty and Faith has some value as well... Although.., I am not a perfect practicing muslim.. but I am trying to be a good muslim... and doing a good job in studies and all worldly matters as well... but the first comment a person is gonna pass on me is fundamentalist... If somebody has a right to go around without clothes I have a right to wear proper clothes as I like... So.., sister.. If somebody is as u said trying to show off as a muslim than it is her or his right... you are nobody to say whether he/she is pretending to be a good muslim or really is... Cuz.., only deciding factor for a good muslim is Faith which only Allah can see...So..., stop pulling others legs... and let us worry about ourselves...

That is so true.
Even if you don't have a beard or sport hijab/niqab please respect individual choices. If you choose to put someone down on the basis of religion, ask yourself again. If you ask them where in the Quran is it written that.....(fill in your question of choice) have you ever really looked up in the Holy Book, about the orders.
Asalam o alaikum.
