Uncle Muhammad Mobasher... sigh I do need patience... like a brother told me today, we are living in the end times and every fitna of every age is here today.




Ishqu Qalbi Ya Habeeb Allah... I wish their was more education and discussion about this too. I don't personally believe that the problem will finish with the next generation they seem to like music and culture of non-asians but I rarely see them mixing with non-Asians (except boys with girls).




I just wanted to pass on this blog article... it is about a broader issue, but he raises the point of the isolationist attitude's contribution to the growth of Salafism...

Uncle MMM is right...we all do need patience because for problems like this to be eradicated, it takes time but we have to remember that patience is beautiful...As-Sabirun jameelun and Insha'Allah if we put our effort in and educate others about these issues, we will see the fruits of our hard work inshaAllah. As for the younger generation of Asians, yes many do listen to the music of non-Asians but do not "hang out" with non-Asians. There are Asians, like myself, who do have non-Asian friends, but for those who don't, I believe their upbringing and what they have been taught by their parents may be one of the factors, but also you have to remember that some young Asians may live in a predominantly Asian area and the school, college or university they go to and the course they are enrolled on may be mainly made of Asians and so they have less or none non-Asian friends. So it is important to note these factors and take these into account when considering how to tackle certain problems.
