i hate my culture

[cheryl]

yeah, heval, translations can be very problematic, as we see here.

[abdur]

If it's cultural of religious, we can say that the more religious people are, the more chance there is that they will wear the scarf. I believe it's religious by the way cause islam is in my opinion more than just quran, its also hadith. Most western women who become muslim start wearing the scarf.

are u talkin about scarf .. the headcovering??? if yes, u better shut ur mouth and respect urself jerk .. u have no right to talk bad about anyone coz u dont believe it something

by the way it is not a "cultural" thing .. its a religious belief .. so if u think its cultural ur stupid

okie

[dyaoko]

well Heval and Diri , said the translation that I gave them is wrong...

- I got it from a Translated Quran ,I didnt translate it bymyself.
- that was only one verse that I reffered to, I guess there are many other verses that you can find .

but you are true , you can discuss and argue on the words...you can say this translation can be this and that .

both Hardliners and Liberals can reffer to many things to prove they are true.

by my idea the best choice is to let women free to choose whatever they want , it isnt men's job to tell women, what to wear .

Yes, it is difficult to translate Arabic to the English language...unfortunately, many do a bad job, and as a result, they produce misleading information.

:D by my idea the best choice is to let women free to choose whatever they want , it isnt men's job to tell women, what to wear .

I agree with you! I believe it should be the choice of the woman to do as she wishes, as everyone is entitled to their own beliefs.

[Diri]

I third those motions which Dyaoko and Heval have concluded with...

[Mosul]

i agree with diri, it is not in the Quran. but it is associated with religon, even if its not in the quran. the women who wear scarfs do it for a religous symbol. to show that their muslim, very few times is a women forced to wear a scarf by here family, well atleast not with kurds.

Correct... The veil is used as a religious symbol... But we agree - it is a cultural thing non the less... Yes - Kurds are much more tolerant...
