bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-48703377 However it should be noted that Almost all of this change is coming from North Africa. Jordan/Palestine/Lebanon/Iraq only changed very marginally, and Yemen actually became more religious. But within North Africa there's been between ~5% (Algeria) and 15+% (Tunisia, Libya) decrease in religiosity, over just 5 years.
Other recent demographic findings from Arab world show- Arabs are becoming: >less interested in politics >more supportive of women in workforce and education >apathetic in views on women in politics
I'll tell you that people here are degenerate as they come, the just don't admit it because they don't want to be isolated from society Also Yemen/Syria are in conflict it's only natural to become more religious And to NAFRIs i blame the Fr*nch influence
Isaac Howard
Something else There was a program in which French born Moroccan kids went back to Morocco and the locals found the third generation French Moroccans kids far more religious then the average Moroccan.They were also asked to remove signs supporting ISIS from their windows by the Moroccan government
Aiden Flores
Not irreligious, just not religious.
It is because the religious establishments everywhere in MENA are tools of the dictatorships. Genuine religious figures are jailed. They are showed no mercy of they criticizes the governments or the leaderships. In fact they only get to high position if they do what they are told. They are basically employees of the dictatorship.
A second reason is because there was a cold war. And one of the competing ideologies was Islamism. But that ideology failed with ISIS. Just like communism failed with the soviet union. And just like arab nationalism failed in the region before, and thus slowly started dying.
I've been to Egypt, Turkey, Iran and the UAE. The most extreme form of Islam i've ever seen was in in the outskirts of London in the sharia controlled areas
John Jenkins
the internet is having a huge effect on Muslim culture. It's getting mixed up with western streams of thought. Many are keeping their faith, but the idea that we should all kill each other over the hereafter seems to be a losing idea in the marketplace of ideas. The tremendous dedication to memorizing volumes of religious text is falling by the wayside in favor of modern living and careers. But the identity of being a Muslim and the participation in the rituals is holding steady so far for the most part.
Gavin Gomez
Nigger shut the fuck up. Jordanians are barely human and even then they're not 1% as degenerate as your average american. Just because you and you fag friends like degenerate shit doesn't mean anyone else does
Camden Kelly

Soon there will be twitch thots from MENA too
Kevin Thomas
most muslims in the UK are from Pakistan
Austin Ramirez
Thats the thing we in Pakistan find British Pakistni's to be overly religious

Noah Diaz
most Pakistani Muslims are from Mirpur about 70% of Pakistani Muslims are Mirpuris we don't like them here either
You know what I mean. The women were literally covering their faces even little girls were in the trash bags
Jackson Young
As the region develops more people gain access to quality education and educated people tend to be both less religious and less interested in making their kids religious, which creates a natural downward trend in religious observance. Note that the areas experiencing the smallest declines in religion are also the least stable.
Bentley White
I remember a post by a Iraqi man who Said that most of Iraq has become very “secular” but secular doesn’t equal tolerant. he said his was family members were very secular but they were extremely racist. They hated other sects of Islam despite not being religious themselves. To them “shiite” and “Sunni” ceased to be religious labels and became ethnic ones. so Islamism will be replace by a more ethno-nationalism in MENA countries
Ayden Cook
why are nafris so extreme but also so gay? is there a very religious minority and a very liberal one or something?
some people literally believe there are religious police patrols, you'd be surprised how retarded some of your countrymen are.
Anthony Stewart
I'm Iraqi and I can confirm. Most Iraqis are quite secular but even people who have nothing to do with religion start hating towards other secs. We basically have 3 ethnic groups in Iraq; Shia, Sunnis and Kurds.
Is there a single country in Europe that's not infested with you people? What the hell
Landon Rivera
Cause we have that here. We have shariah courts that can follow religious laws so long as they don't encroach on state laws mostly divorce shit. The mcp patrols the muslims in the area to make sure no one drinks or eats pork in their community.
They're the Mexicans of Europe leave them be gringo
Anthony Anderson
Why are you trying to meme this? I've seen you post this shit before
Mason Peterson
The irony ;)
Jaxson Jenkins
kek what are you doing in czechia kinsman
Adrian Williams
I've never posted this before but this is common knowledge if you live in NY.
Juan Price
>sudan being conveniently included in all of the statistics what's the purpose?
Jace Scott
Listen fatty why don't you drive your mobility scooter off a cliff like a good boy and maybe God will reward you for sparing humanity your putrid existence
Wyatt Green
btw after thinking about this, i can definitely say religiousity has gone UP not down past 100 years in the arab world.
Brayden Adams
It's not that expensive to live here and there are a lot of job opportunities if you speak two or more languages. Also there aren't too many other arabs which is great desu.
Xavier Evans
hel inta iraqi lo larper? ha'chi hechi hata matis'tamil google translate.

Lincoln Bailey
صارلي هنا تقريبا اربع سنين. اول سنة كانت اتعس سنة بس بعدين الواحد يتعود على الحياة و على اكلان القنادر اليصير كل ما تتعامل وياهم
Nolan Murphy
You're one of the best posters on this board I'm being serious
Ryder Jackson
kek based. and yet thats still better than life in Iraq for you? you have any family with you?
seems pretty interesting though, good on you. how'd you get there in the first place?
Asher Jackson
they are showed no mercy if* they
thanks user. It's really nice to read nice words like this one. And great to know that someone recognizes me. Let me take a guess; are you the Tatar user?
Easton Campbell
Are you fucking kidding? I'd rather live in one of those hong kong pod apartments instead of living in Iraq. Last time I went there was a few years ago during the last asia cup iirc and when Iraq won one of the matches I was kept awake by the sound of retards shooting in celebration and apparently a few people died including a child.Anyway I don't have any senpai with me here but my parents live in the gulf and I have family members all around europe, the US and Canada. Most of them stayed in Iraq but like 30% are scattered all around. Anyway I came here for uni and after I finished my bachelor's I decided it wasn't too bad and I'm working on my master's atm
Your posts are very good therefore they stand out in every thread I've seen you take part in. And no, I'm not the Tatar user.
Austin Hernandez
A bunch of them scattered before the war because they were at risk of getting tortured to death for being in the communist party or for associating with communists I'm from diyala but most of my time in Iraq was in Baghdad
Hudson Williams
I think Israels and Irans problems are moreso entrenched in the governments they have than the people.
Connor Roberts
Which suggests that people's religious views are influence by state politics, not education. This also why Yemenis became more religious
Aiden Wright
Anyway niggers I think I might need to go to the hospital since I'm pretty sure I just broke my big toe
Tyler Carter
Nothing wrong with either of these.
Carter Parker
>I'm from diyala but most of my time in Iraq was in Baghdad interesting.
Brody Kelly
What about Saudi Arabia? Or Murica?
Caleb Campbell
>not at all. Yes, globally. >Israel and Iran proves otherwise. Fuck all to do with religion and the general populace is trending the same as the rest of the world. Do you get all of your news about the middle east from American mainstream media or something?
>This also why Yemenis became more religious Yemen has had their country torn apart by other countries for decades with fuck all social stability. You're a complete fucking idiot for using Yemen as an example.
Nolan Wilson
They have infamously terrible education systems.
Alexander White
Proofs?
Connor Ward
i wouldn't listen to whiteoids talking about this stuff anyways. to them its just a game that they can read about superficially on the internet.
people in the west for example often confuse rural village uneducated folk with being religious but that isn't really true.
Owen Price
their population is borderline retarded what other fucking proof do you want?
saudis cling on to islamism because its the closest thing they have to a culture that isn't boy fucking pederasty and it's sad. gulf arabs are truly a horrible subhuman species.
David Watson
>Fuck all to do with religion and the general populace is trending the same as the rest of the world. It has everything to do with religion. In fact religious fanaticism has gone up in places like India and Myanmar, despite having more access to "western" education.
>Yemen has had their country torn apart by other countries and because of religious fanatics. don't act like the locals are goodbois who dindu nuffin
Easton White
Anyway what province are you from, nigger
Nolan Allen
> In fact religious fanaticism has gone up in places like India and Myanmar, despite having more access to "western" education. thats more of a geopolitically influenced cultural trend and not something thats inherent to the people.
>and because of religious fanatics. don't act like the locals are goodbois who dindu nuffin the locals are literally uneducated and harmless t. someone who lived in San'aa for 4 years.
Henry Williams
They have 84 IQ which is bad but not that bad.
Kayden Gomez
baghdadi for ages as far as i can trace back my family ya kalb. last time i was there was in 2004 seeing family. i've only ever breathed a total of 11 months of air in iraq, from when i was born there and one visit. i think my mother has some land in baqouba funnily enough.
Cooper Foster
IQ is a stupid metric and all those studies done are not accurate at all.
the real IQ for saudis would be so stupidly low seeing as they are incapable of proper civilization and cultural development as evidenced throughout history.
your average afghani pashtun if he was educated would be much better than an average saudi.
i dont even have any real bias they are just generally that subhuman and retarded. their folk are literal degenerates.
Robert Harris
everyone who has arabic twitter knows Saudi Arabia is gone
Evan Lewis
You are being unfair to them. Saudis are mostly nice and smart people
Logan Howard
i legit saw a video the other day of these saudi/khaleeji boys in a classroom taking turns assfucking a younger boy
they also have so many faggots that do gay lewd shit and send it around.
its fucking astounding how gay and degen. they are.
even their women due to absolute repression have adultery hotels where they go and fuck other men there.
John Wood
S-sauce?
Jackson Morris
> Saudis are mostly nice and smart people you do know they see you as their subhuman slave? you should see how your kin are treated there. Educated pakistanis go to the khaleej to be humiliated by some dumbass rich fuck who berates and overworks them.
my iranian friend in UAE sent me this the other day
Carson Watson
I don't know how they treat the workers but I went to Saudi Arabia for Umrah once and I had good interactions with them. Account is protected. Post webm.
Julian Thomas
I am sudanese and lived here for a decade, and I am terrified of discussing the different arabian nations with knowledgeable anons, would completely shatter my childhood image of them
I want to live in blissful ignorance and feel that the umma is bikhair
Asher Hall
hahaha >umma is bikhair HAHAHAHHAHASHHASHAHAHA
islam is a fucking joke, get that in your head my subsaharan friend. arabs are the worst of the worst scum peoples that exist.
go your own way with your own people, forge your own culture, work on yourself and community and be happy that way.
Luis Mitchell
rude
Connor Perez
I've seen more atheists here than genuine muslims. And most Israelis are "cultural jews"
Hudson Hughes
A significant proportion of religious zealots are gay and/or pedophiles either using their faith to try and control their urges or abusing it for access to little boys with religiously trusting parents
Leo Russell
Wrong, Tunisia and Libya are very unstable
Tyler Lee
When it was a French colony, they put a openly gay dude in charge of the place. He admired Islam for how "masculine" it was and reintroduced Islamic laws and promoted arabization in the region
Jackson Moore
No, religious population actually grows here simply because h*redim are having 10 children each and are outbreeding secular people. And fuck b*b* for encouraging them.
Most atheists here are teenagers going through a rebellious phase. After that they settle down and usually become secular Muslims or something.
Anthony Ward
Western degeneracy is spreading.
Caleb Ward
It also leads to lower birth rates. Western cucks will soon die out and hopefully take their bullshit with them
Jace Phillips
It's an actual problem here in Germany where turks born here are far more religious than the generation that migrated here. Which is why I am absolutely not optimistic about future prospects here.
Blake Johnson
What counts as honor killing? I'm not fluent in Islamic culture. Can someone explain?
John Fisher
They have the big gay now
Nathaniel Ortiz
>i've ever seen was in in the outskirts of London in the sharia controlled areas Lol this is bullshit
Robert Allen
I guess when someone performs adultery they are killed for it.
islamization of africa is a huge problem we dont want to see
isalmization autohroitairun regimes epidemies starvation + radical islam(as a final point islamization)
= Europe is fucked
Nathaniel Foster
but isalmization is decreasing in North Africa the most
Juan Butler
Hard to believe in Allah when your country gets bombed to shit, live in poverty and the only rich Arab countries are rich cuz of oil and allies of your enemies aka USA.
