Also I feel like some Muslims heard 'don't mix religion and culture' but like somehow turned that into 'we all should act exactly the same and erase any instance of cultural differences in the name of Islam'

#like calling people's cultural dress haram is not it #same with cultural music #say what you will but music is cultural and taking it away is erasing people's identities #like we're not all arab nor south asian and we shouldn't have to lose our identities bc we're muslim #I really love seeing differences amongst different islamic ethnic groups it's like seeing history #and it's like people being racist misogynistic and homophobic and transphobic in the so called name of islam #when that's the opposite of what you should be doing but policing people's clothes or something #you worried about the wrong thing #random
