Saudi Arabia's theology is lead by a Wahabi clergy. They believe mosques shouldn't look beautiful and rather they should look bland. Because mosque are a place of worship and spirituality not showing off. So I guess I'm not surprised.
Pic related is how modernism and religious architecture are done. It's a mosque that is 5 minutes away from my house.
But it is one of the OLDEST still standing mosques. Which id pretty cool.
Is it the biggest one in Malaysia? I wouldn't say it is ugly. But I wouldn't say it's great looking either. Malaysia has tons of cool mosques desu. Pic related is a great looking mosque in Malaysia.
>being young >being muslim why do your retarded parents force you into shit religion or you are mentally disabled and actually believe in cool guy allaH

Not really too fond of the glossy dome, zahir mosque is simpler but does the black dome look better. Looks pretty metal too.
Haha no one would guess a Chinese style building is mosque. Even though the oldest mosques in China are almost all exclusively in Chinese style. Pic related, a mosque in China from the Ming dynasty era.
Do most children actually have to learn the Arabic alphabet in Malaysia?

Only muslims taking islamic studies in school, its just malay language written using arabic alphabet. The non muslim take moral studies during the period but its just playing basketball or football most of the time.
Yes, other than to recite Quran, school also teach Arabic alphabet so that students can read old Malay script written with Arabic alphabet.

No one is surprised by knowing that it is you who is born, why even breathe?
No, you don't. Okay, I get you were being sarcastic now. Your point being that being religious doesn't imply believing in irrational religious beliefs?

You have a great knowledge and I appreciate it. I hold a quite different view, science quite fails to prove evolution, you can look up the missing link so evolution is not quite proven fact. Charles Darwin completed his theory believing that the missing link can be found but we never quite found it, we just "assume" how the missing link human would look like. It is also wrong to assume that all the Young Earth Creationist are irrational, we do use science and science does prove the age of earth to be 6000 years old.
Muslims, I need your wisdom. What is the purpose of women in this world? Do they work? Should their marriages be arranged? Should men have to compete for women?

>earth >6000 years old Are you christian user? I remember coming across a UAE user who was Assyrian (I think) And had a lot of arguments, theology and stuff to say about Christianity. Is that you?
I'm sorry, I'm not the Assyrian guy you're talking about, I only remember talking about theology to a woman from UAE.

>What is the purpose of women in this world? Citizens, mothers and wives. I guess >Do they work? What? >Should their marriages be arranged? As long as she agrees and get to meet and know who her husband is going to be. Then sure thing. >Should men have to compete for women? Somewhat, yes.
>Anyone from a country with 30% muslim population My county is 30% muslim. Is that good enough?
Nathan Anderson
>What is the purpose of women in this world? To give birth to children. That is the reason why another gender besides male exists. >Do they work? Yes they do, but a lot of them prefer not to and have their husbands work for them. >Should their marriages be arranged? No, marriages should be done based on agreement from all parties. >Should men have to compete for women? Of course, it fucks up the evolutionary cycle if we don't.
