That's what I'm trying to say, they'll welcome him with open arms. Without taking into consideration the 'below average' muslim status.
right, so what's your point? No one ever said the he wouldn't be. The only problem I had, was that you claimed that muslims in India are happy and that even Pakistanis, such as Meera, Junoon, enjoy coming over to India. Because, believe it or not, these people do not accurately represent 162K+ population.

Do you realise, the more rigid rules are toward women in society, the more they're going to want to break free? Don't you think, given today's times, those who wear Bukhas are hypocrites? What I mean is, there are ladies who wear Burkhas to my uncle's office for example, but once they're in the office they disrobe them and roam about freely in their regular clothes. What's the need to wear it in the first place, if you're just doing it for approval? It obviously means for a better part, these women do not believe in the system of the 'purdah'. And why should they? Isnt it important for them to go out there and live their dreams. Your views do seem rigid because on one hand you condemn Sania for choosing her career over religion, on the other you dont agree with what one mullah says about the other. I think that's a little unfair. The volleyball example is a little misleading because, I think any woman from the subcontinent would be uncomfortable with the idea. But look at your women's cricket team. Our Indian female team actually had to travel to Pakistan and play in a sealed off stadium so that men would'nt see the Pakistani women play, unless they were husbands or brothers. If the 'purdah' must be practiced, thats fine, but wont it be practiced more whole heartedly when praying, during ramzan or during a daily trip to the mosque? I think this only affects the women more than anyone else. It's very important women get a chance to progress and do well for themselves in these times.
That is a bit "painting with a wide brush" Baggio. On the contrary, I think most Muslim women, choose to cover themselves. True, there are also others who just do it because they feel it is dictated by society, but the majority do it willingly. Trust me on this, I live in a Muslim community and I know whats going on.

Have you seen her in the movie 'Nazar' and the new one 'Kasak' with Lucky Ali. I know she loves to strip for the camera, and that's probably why you hate her, but I dont know why you deny she's hot.
i dont have any problems with her stripping.i really dont care.
but i honestly dont find her hot.

    I've seen women from Dubai, Pakistan, Turkey, Lebanon and the like. ****ing hot, and without Burkhas. Of course, there's always the lot that follows conventional thinking, but the fact that there are those that are even choosing the other option, I think it's good for them. Your avatar is blinding me by the way.

    Yes, but what is wrong with that? Muslims in India are happy, if they weren't there wouldn't be the kind of communal harmony you will see all over this country (save the terrorism in Kashmir). We wouldnt have a Muslim president with such a fan following, or much loved actors or cricketers. Not just that, but the fact that there is no discord between the common muslims here with regards to the actions of the 'more popular, below average' renowned muslims. That, I feel speaks for itself.

    I am confused over here, are we talking about covering the face or the concept of covering "hijab" in general??

    Gents, you're to be commened for such a polite conversation on a doubtless touchy topic. However, this thread needs renaming and/or splitting. Anyone care to suggest a new title?
