Bimbonya kau dekk kena tipu dengan Zakir Naik sahaja! lol
Patutlah kes terpencil!
In a country like India where Muslims are only 15 per cent of the population and of the remainder 80 per cent are Hindus.
Akan tetapi!
Starting with the independence of India as Muslims became inferior to Hindus in socioeconomic and educational arena, a few Muslims started to think that despite several unwieldy, confusing and impractical rituals in the Hindu religion, in order to get ahead in life it was all right to marry Hindus. Thus several Muslim political leaders, movie actors, writers and poets married Hindu women who did not convert to Islam. The taboo on Muslim women marrying Hindu men remained relatively strong and only a few Muslim women married Hindu men. However, as globalisation and modernisation have haven hold in India and economic factors have become more important, the incidence of Muslim men and women marrying Hindus has increased manifold in the last 25 years. In this modern cultural sweep the hold of religion has slowed down much on those Indian Muslims who are finding alibis for why it is not so bad to marry non-Muslims and why it is not necessary to convert your spouse to Islam. On my recent visit to India I heard from inter-faith couples I met on how humanism and secularism were more important than religious belief and practices. I began to wonder if atheism was replacing religion for a lot of people in India. Some of them told me that the fact that many Hindus had diluted their practice of Hinduism, it may not be so bad if Muslims reciprocated in like manner. For sure, the wholesale popularity of a permissive culture is impacting many aspects of life in India. In India permissiveness is not there only in matters of culture, entertainment, literature, music, style of life, sexual affairs but is also in matters of religious practices. One type of permissiveness soon leads to other types of permissiveness. And pretty soon variations and deviations from religious practices are rationalised. As many Muslim young men and women have acquired modern education, good jobs and an upper class lifestyle, the combination of permissive culture, and they themselves being from weak socioeconomic backgrounds and awed by the economically stronger and more modern Hindu young men and women, many Muslims think that marrying non-Muslims is not a big deal. From what I observed a much larger number of Muslim young men and women have now started marrying Hindus. Compelled by this situation many Muslim parents have started accepting the notion of their sons and daughters that interfaith marriages are not a big deal.
