I’m a women who had a very religious phase with islam, but now im starting to question it. Things like caring about whether a woman has her hair covered or if her ankles are showing don’t even make sense because why would god create these features if he was going to tell women to cover them. And why does he care so much about an inch of hair showing? I also feel like there are too many misogynistic and racist undertones like the fact that everybody has to learn and read in arabic to truly understand the religion. I guess I’m just asking what made you guys choose to leave. To an extent, I also feel like I’m trapped because I’ve already displayed a religious persona for years. Even if I left I wouldn’t be able to display it so i think I’ll always be what i like to call “culturally muslim”.
