Westerners are used to religion without works, if in fact they are Christians in the first place, they are used to believing in God and just leaving it at that. Westerners enjoy believing in God and still indulging in fun and enjoyment, believing that works are not required to enter the Garden, or that works are simply too much effort to keep up with given the demands of modern life on the body and mind.This is absolutely off the table for Muslims. There is no such thing as "non practicing" in Islam. Works are everything. In fact, the one who abandons the prayer and never prays is considered a kaffir by consensus. Muslims are MUCH more devout and chained to religious works than even Jews. Everything in Islam is centred around relentless piety and worship. Even the Muslim festivals of Eid are centred around worship and more and more and more prayer, entire evenings and nights spent in prayer until you collapse from lack of sleep.For Westerners, festivals like Christmas, New Year are a time to indulge and let loose and have some fun. Even devout Christians accept these festivals as "chill out time" while still incorporating faith into them. But the Muslim festivals don't have "fun", they are entirely focused on praying and praying and praying and reading Qu'ran. For Westerners, Church attendance even on Sunday is entirely voluntary but for Muslims mosque attendance is mandatory. If any Muslim refuses to attend Friday prayers without a serious medical reason Allah seals his heart shut.There is simply too much required from the average Westerner to commit to Islam beyond a surface level label of "I'm a Muslim". Pure religious commitment for the average White or Black Westerner is something very taxing and causes burnout and they may even leave Islam because they feel less of a Muslim.
I have never seen a muslim or a mosque community do any charitable events or feed the poor or anything, they just isolate themselves interacting with nobody and probably seethe talking about murdering me for being a filfthy kuffar or something.
>>18253665Good evening dawah poster, did you have a great time not celebrating Christmas?
>>18253665Where are you meeting these Muslims? Are you in the US? Because every single American Muslim I've met just avoids eating pork and hates Israel; nothing else gives an indication of their faith.
>>18253665Muslims are all about izzat, they are only outwardly pious. Your average Muslim will be just as degenerate as the average westerner, but they will try to present a public persona of piety and devotion at all times. The Muslim finds no problems in going to mosque and then watching porn when he comes home, it's all about public perception. His entire community sees him in the mosque praying, so he receives social validation and credit. No one then sees him indulge in his vices in private, so now he can get the best of both worlds, live like a degenerate while pretending to be virtuous. At least westerners are honest when they tell your they are atheists.
>>18253665>Westerners are used to religion without worksSo did you forget that many Westerners are Catholics, or did you just conflate "Western" with "Anglophone protestant" for some reason?
>>18253665Did chatgpt write your spam post
>>18253690Yes, catholics that think 'works' are turning up to mass every so often and partaking in the eucharist (while acting like 'le protters' turning up to church every sunday means they don't really care about anything)
>>18253690Catholics, for the most part, are also as OP described. While the Church teaching is that Sunday Mass is a mortal obligation, who actually attends? They go for major festivals, maybe. The rest of the year their buildings are empty except for lonely old ladies. How many wake up at dawn and pray the breviary? How many do a rosary, or even pray before eating?There is a tiny cult of maybe 1,000,000 Traditionalists.
>>18253665Bullshit. The problem is that Islam considers practically everything no matter how harmless or acceptable by every other religion haram and also enforces Arab culture, both of which is off-putting for Westerners. Also Muslims in the West are absolutely lax in their faith. Muslims who drink, smoke, have casual sex, and listen to music are very common. Hell, Muslims are practically renown for being the #1 group most likely to rape you in many countries, including Islamic countries. No woman can go to Egypt alone and not be sexually harassed or assaulted, it's that bad.
>>18253665Islam will become more lenient over time, or go extinct.
>>18253665Westerners, especially the 'Christian' Westerners have no expectations or obligations with their spirituality. A WASP can murder their own son, go to church next week to repent and everyone will join them in prayer, then he can have a tarot card reading done to spite his supposed God, and he's still a 'Christian". Mormons can similarly reject apostolic succession, corrupt the concept of marriage with polyamory, and include race science to their faith, and they still believe they are Christian. It's all a participation trophy for them. I go out of my way to wish them happy holidays.
>>18253665>Works are everything>spends all day talking himself and rocking back.and forth like a mental patient.
>>18253727No, he's going at it for at least two years now desu
>>18253665>believing that works are not required to enter the GardenNigga has never heard of Catholicism.
>>18254022Latinos are Catholics but don't do any works yet they still believe in God deeply and believe they will enter Paradise. For Latinos, like all Westerners, religious works come second or even third to dancing, drinking, drug dealing, rapping, fornicating with women, getting tattoos and having a good time.This is never acceptable for the Muslim to de-prioritise religious works in this manner. Any Muslim found to be doing this and forgetting his religious duties will be shamed so bad by the elders and the community that he will never be negligent upon worship again.This is why even Muslim grooming gang members have the mark of piety etched into their foreheads. Some of these men are not even past age 50 yet the sign of a life devoted to worship is literally stencilled onto their foreheads. Nothing like this exists in Catholicism.
