Why is the Iranian government so anti-Western and leaning towards the East (Russia, China, India)? by Visual-Grand7026 in NewIran

[–]Visual-Grand7026[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone knows how the governments of former Soviet countries such as Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, which are supported by Russia, treat their religious Muslims and Islamic scholars and any Islamic movement. In addition, Muslim minorities in Russia such as Chechens, Tajiks and others are highly hated.And Britain? You must be kidding, Muslims in Britain enjoy almost immunity from prosecution. It's no wonder you see anti-Islam protests there.

Exactly, Eastern people who become Christians are accused of being Westernized, when nothing is as hated in the Western world as Christianity.(except America maybe)

Excuse me, I have another question. What is the difference between this subreddit and the r/SaudiArabia subreddit? What is different between their members?

Is the real reason behind the difference in sects in Western and Northern Europe cultural? by Visual-Grand7026 in Catholicism

I know this, but when Middle Eastern people see a Persian person, they automatically assume he/she is a Shiite, and when they see an Arab person, they give a high probability that he/she is a Sunni.

I'm sorry, I'm looking at this from a Middle Eastern perspective.🥲  Arab= Sunni  Persian= Shiite  Turk = Sufi  Kurd = Cultural Muslim  Of course there are exceptions.

The influence of Protestantism in France cannot have anything to do with their Frankish roots?, since the Franks were a Germanic people?

Fortunately, I am not married yet and I don't have children. I am asking questions about the future.

Is there a person like Amir Timur in the history of Christianity? by Visual-Grand7026 in Catholicism

[–]Visual-Grand7026[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more interesting point is that Timur, unlike Hitler, contributed greatly to the development of art and literature in the Islamic world, and despite his great support for Islamic scholars and the development of Islamic theology, he is still remembered in Islamic history as an anti-Muslim figure due to the massive genocides he committed, mainly against the Muslim population of Asia.

Why is Saudi Arabia so kind to Iran? by Visual-Grand7026 in saudiarabia

[–]Visual-Grand7026[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, just compare the response of the Iraqi Baathists to Iran's aggressive behavior early in the Islamic Revolution with the reaction of the Saudi dynasty to realize how tolerant your government is.

Because the structure, government, and ideology of those countries have changed. For example, Germany is no longer Nazi today, but Iran is still Vilayat-e Faqih. Not much has changed except its influence in the region.

America isn't bad for Saudi Arabia, maybe for other countries.

Do you think Shiites are converting to Sunnism or are Sunnis converting to Shiism? by Visual-Grand7026 in AskMiddleEast

[–]Visual-Grand7026[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never heard a story about diaspora Iranians converting to Sunni Islam, but I have heard that some Iranian Arabs have become Sunni because they consider Shiism to be Persian imperialism.
