About Muslims in Asia

7

asia man

The largest and most populous continent or region is Asia. It covers 8.6% of the Earth's total surface area, or 29.4% of its land area, and it contains more than 60% of the world's population.

Most of the world's Muslims live in Asia. After Indonesia, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh have the world's highest Muslim populations. Islam spread to South Central and East Asia mostly through merchants and mystical Sufis.

As you can see on the right, we have several categories to include all Asian countries. We also have subcategories for India and Indonesia.

    Please do not believe in things about Islam like, women are not allowed to live as free as men - the real thing is that women are even freer than men in a way because men has to protect women like a bodyguard in terms of strength, so that nothing happens to women that women don't want them to happen to.
    Or that Muslims can't ever drink alcohol. It's just said "Even the littlest amount of alcohol drunk is harmful for you." So, you can drink as much as you think your body isn't harmed and you won't harm anyone and your relationships with anybody.
    Or that Muslims fear of God. It's said "You can't imagine how merciful God is. He will forgive everything if you beg for his forgiveness. But He won't forgive if you equalize Him with a thing he had created."
    I had once read Koran, and I couldn't believe how differently I interpreted It than my preconception. I asked it my Muslim friends and they told me that they said there were 7 main, and millions of minor ways to interpret It, and it always turned out that people understand things that they need to build into their lives, out of the Koran. Interesting...
    Now, I have a weird respect to the Koran, and It stands next to the Holly Bible in my house.
    I think we should have a closer look inside their world through different glasses. This could prevent stupid wars at the very last. Everyone with an injured psyche can become a terrorist. A remarkable point is that while we were fighting in Europe in the Middle Age, Muslims were studying and developing science and philosophy in peace.
    A good start point for this mental change would be visiting Istanbul where the majority Muslim is, and where cultures meet.
    Finally, I want to advise you that you trust people as much as they trust you. So, you won't be disappointed because of the bad behaviors of some mad, psychologically sick people.
    Thank you

      Dear Omur:
      Did you know where "Allah" came from? he was originally a pagan moon diety whom Mohommad took over and proclaimed the Superme God. The Hajj was originally a pagan ritual too. As was fasting for a month during daylight hours. And the five times-a-day pray-facting-mecca ritual.
      your friend,
      Grace

        Dear Grace,
        I didn't know that! I'm a wee bit into that pagan stuff. So, can you tell me which pagan belief it is?
        I think that there is a good possibility of that being true because every religion is aiming more or less the same thing. Peace, friendship etc.
        Best wishes from your friend,
        Onur

        The word allah means al-the ilah-god it is an arabic word for god this word was used in preislamic days for god even for idols but in quran this word has been used for god who is the creator and cherisher of this universe there is not a single verse in quran which says allah as moon this is a false allegation instead there are so many verses in quran which says allah is the creator of moon & the sun."God is he who created the sun as the giver of light and moon as reflector of light"(quran chapter 10 verse 5).The moon got assosiated with islam only after turks converted to islam as moon used to be revered by them .THE WORD ALLAH WAS USED FOR GOD EVEN BY CHRISTIAN ARABS AND IS STILL BEING USED BY CHRISTIANS IN THAT REGION.As for fasting" it is prescribed to learn self restrain" (quran chapter 2 verse 183) .As for haj it was a big business affair in preislamic days where people of whole arabia used to gather for business at mecca and also used to worship idols instaled there,when islam came that business gathering used to continue without idol worship but with worship of creator of universe . The concept of god in islam is" god is a single entity , the eternal the absolute,he begetteth not,nor is he begotten and there is none like unto him "(chapter 112).I once i asked my christian friend why do u belive jesus as son of god she said cos he is made up of same material as god is made up of and he listens to prayers .IF ONE IS MADE UP OF SAME MATERIAL AS THAT OF OTHER IT DOES NOT MEAN UR THE OTHERS SON IT MEANS UR LIKE HIM IF THAT WOULD HAD BEEN THE CASE WHOLE MANKIND WOULD BE SONS OF EACH OTHER ,SONS OF ANIMALS,SONS OF OTHER SUBSTANCES FOUND IN UNIVERSE WHICH ARE IN THEM .AND IF JESUS IS MADE OF SAME MATERIAL AS GOD HE BECOMES OTHER GOD THAT MEANS ONE GOD CAME IN HUMAN FORM ONE DID NOT AND ONE GOD JESUS PRAYED TO OTHER GOD WHO DID NOT CAME IF JESUS IS SON WHY GOD HAD ONLY ONE SON WHY NOT MANY WHY HE DID NOT HAVE DAUGHTER , WHY NOT UNCLES , AUNTS, SISTERS, BROTHERS, PARENTS AND FRIENDS AND WHY NOT UZAIR IS SON OF GOD AS THE JEWS CLAIM.AND IF JESUS IS SON JUST BECAUSE HE ANSWERS UR PRAYERS THEN CHRISTIANS SHOULD KNOW PEOPLE WHO DO NOT CAL HIM FIND THEIR PRAYERS ANSWERED,PEOPLE PRAYING STONES FIND THEIR PRAYERS ANSWERED AND PEOPLE WHO CAL NOBODY ALSO FIND THEIR WORK DONE.LASTLY WHAT QURAN SAYS (CHAPTER 6 VERSE 101) "TO GOD IS DUE THE PRIMAL ORIGIN OF UNIVERSE HOW CAN HE HAVE A SON WHEN HE HAS NO WIFE HE CREATED ALL THINGS AND HAS FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THINGS".
