Are Pashtun women more religious than pashtun men?

[salam]

lol and which members are you refering to?

There are far more male members here who do what you said than female.


As far as I can see the majority of females here hold true to Islamic & Pukhtun values.

Haris, In western countries using bad language is a routine thing thats why I think you don't take it as a bad thing.
All the girls posting songs with videos, using bad language and lies and support secularism in different ways and even speak against the Islamic virtues etc.

OPEN YOUR EYES

I think this depends on what you define as "religious".

There are women who do not wear hijab for Islamic reasons but wear it due to social/cultural pressures... would you call her religious?

There are men who attend every Juma congregation but don't even bother to pray their five daily prayers... would you call him religious?

I fear Allah too much to judge the piety my fellow Muslim brothers and sisters. Funny how others find it easy to do so on an online forum of people they have never met.

This is like asking why did the chicken cross the road...

[Gulalai]

We also have gulalai who is a hijabi

LOL :D

that should be added to the emoticon we have

[salam]

i haven't seen any pashtanas around here curse or say bad wods :/
and what do you mean discuss things they shouldn't be discussing? like what?
and the men around here watch videos and listen to songs too.....

anyways @ this thread, i agree with Adam i don't think its measurable lol every individual is different. but it's interesting to think about :P

Gulalai, why are you getting angry ??? LOL
I am not pointing at you. I am talking just general, if you are not posting songs so why should you be worried ?
If you are not using bad language then ok.

But one thing you should do, please don't sit behind the curtail. You seem like you are offline but actually you are not.
so make your status online...

Brother, I have not seen any female user here using 'bad language'. Yes I do take it as a bad thing regardless of me 'living in the west'.

Yes there were female members here who were not holding true to Islamic and Pukhtun values...but there were also males too.

You think it is just females who post songs?


On the contrary I see females (won't name anyone to save embarrasment) who have defended Islam, who contribute to the religion forum on Islamic issues, who defended Pukhtun values (one of the mods was good at this, not here any more), who are 'modest' in their posting....


I have also seen males who are atheists, who speak out against Islam, who speak out against Pukhtunwali......In fact moreso than any females.

i shared my view, and then i asked a sincere question.

muahahahaha i enjoy appearing offline.

[graveyardofempires]

whats with all the dumb discussions.
you guys are having a debate for the sake of it.

it is a fact that pashtun women or as we call em pukhtaney khezey are more religious.
some freaks here bring their personal opinions as if those are facts.

and all of you need to vote atleast if you know anything about this.

and yes it can be measured,JANANA you are also a pukhtana to us.

Yes there are so many secular minded males here moving around and searching for their prey but there are a good number of religious men here but I said there I have not seen a single religious female who have not used bad language and posted songs and protected secular ideologies or secular personalities.

Rest assured there are many.

You haven't looked hard enough.

Bac to the topic,

Regarding Pakhtana in the West...
I don't know its hard to say.
I have seen many Pakhatana who wear hijab in public....but I have seen may who don't. I know some who are traditional and others who aren't.

I couldn't make such a statement since I don't know all of the Pakhtana living in the West and those that I do know are very different.


Back in watan I think Pakhtana are....since it is just easier for them to be good Muslims.



Edit: Perhaps 'easier' is not the right word....please don't get offended girls

Well said

I am alone here and all are attacking me... girls and boys both.
Have I said anything wrong ?

[afghan]

in my family women are more religious than men, they are not adopting western culture.
