HelloAgain2025 · 22/02/2025 23:35

YABU, maybe? 🤔

IamGrout · 22/02/2025 23:41

Why?

Becauseisaidsookay · 22/02/2025 23:42

Need educating how? 🤷🏻‍♀️

RufustheFactuaIReindeer · 22/02/2025 23:54

I think you might need to be slightly more descriptive OP

or try AMA as aaron suggested

I admire you for doing this, but every single thread I've seen on this subject of Muslims or Islam goes the same way. Prepare yourself for an onslaught.

MiserableMrsMopp · 23/02/2025 00:06

Are you married? If not and you want to marry, how will you find your husband?

MotherJessAndKittens · 23/02/2025 00:07

???

Becauseisaidsookay · 23/02/2025 00:08

Do you agree with everything your religion says?

Yes twice. Both on a Muslim dating app. Not the conventional way.

What does Islam say about Jews?

What does Islam say about Jews?

I'm not sure - they are people of the book.

I should write a disclaimer.
I am not an expert. Just an average Joe Muslim woman in the UK who is fed up of people making assumptions about Islam without actually having spoken to a Muslim in real life, hence this reactive thread.

How do you personally feel about Jews then, as a Muslim?

I have no issues with Jews. I get anxious when I come across a visible Jew in my daily contact because it's obvious I'm a Muslim and I wonder if they have views about me that I won't get the opportunity to address.

Quick general question please:
I know Ramadan starts next Friday/Saturday, do Muslims usually have some sort of "preparation" before it starts?

WhoevenamIinlife · 23/02/2025 00:22

MiserableMrsMopp · 23/02/2025 00:13

Why twice?

Because the first one was a twat I divorced.

I’ve known lots of Muslims. Lovely people with gentle and compassionate values. I still can’t reconcile with ‘a man’s word is worth ten more than women’ and that women are held responsible for the lust of men.

Yes normally like spiritual cleanse, starting to wind down any bad habits like cursing etc.
I have just spent the weekend deep cleaning with the family so I have a clean home to start Ramadan with - a clean home is more relaxing and then hopefully can cleanse the heart in the process.

some Muslims prepare food to freeze for easy access to cook for the evening meal.

Where does the Quran say that a man's word is worth ten more than women?

Yab ridiculous… a female Muslim in the UK is hardly unusual. Posting in this way is not necessary
