Basant is not our culture. No, you're not. You're not a Sikh, you're a Muslim.

Nobody asked you. I find the foundations of Bangladesh's existence silly and contradictory. However, Bangladeshis themselves are usually pretty decent chaps.

I specifically referred to annual celebrations. Stop playing dumb. I did. Here's another: (Reported by al-Bukhaari and Muslim). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.”

But you don't see them holding annual celebrations from jahiliya times, do you?

Common logic. They derive rulings from the text, not their own heads. Yes, and told his Prophet (peace be upon him) what is halal and haram, and this is documented via hadiths. Scholars tell us which hadith says what and explain it's context.

A hadith is more than sufficient, they are just as integral to our religion as the Quran. And they stopped practising the parts which had nothing to do with Islam.

Household items and communal activities are not the same as annual celebrations which hold no benefit you cannot equate the two. And modern-day advances in technology are based on previous Muslim achievements, such as the famous work of Al Khwarizmi (without him we wouldn't have Algorithms, and...

That's still a lot.

They speak Persian, so I consider them Persian.

I'm mixed, but most of my family has settled in the Punjab and that therefore makes me Punjabi. Being a Punjabi is more of a geographical identity than anything else. Agreed. I don't speak Punjabi, and even if I did, you would do well to remember that almost all the great Punjabi poets (such...

I understand, but that only means we should teach the Sikh Empire as being a part of Pakistani history. We should not celebrate any traditions they created since that's not only haram, but also incredibly stupid since most Pakistanis were Muslim by then.

Keep your trap shut, they are our Pakistani brothers. Direct your anger towards those namak harams at PTM all you want, but don't you even dare say a word against the 2nd largest ethnic group of our nation.

Salamu Alaykum Bro, do you even know who started this event? None other than Ranjit Singh, the Maharaja of the Sikh Empire who was a sworn enemy of Muslims and Islam. Not only that, but he also fought frequently with your very own people, the Pashtuns.

They do what's in their interests and put themselves first. I respect that as well as the fact that the people work very hard. However, I find their human rights violations to be pretty bad and I think they can be a little too Atheistic for my liking (to the point where they force this belief...

It annoys me to no end when Afghans call their country the graveyard of empires and then proceed to mock Iranians, Pakistanis and Indians for getting invaded by others. The ones who do this clearly don't know history. Plenty of Afghans are Shia. That would for sure be a major concern. You...

Whilst the Iranian military is much more competent, I agree. The conflict would have not turned out well, but I have a feeling you guys could have done a better job than NATO when it comes to reconciling with the Afghans since so many of them are ethnic Persians.

Britain has treated Pakistanis very well post-partition (a few crackheads aside), but the country's relations with Pakistan itself are lukewarm at best.

Your original post did, and I quoted it in my previous reply.

It's not OUR culture.

I'm not saying you love casualties, nobody does, but for you to post them on a Pakistani forum is a slap in the face for all of us (unless someone provokes you into doing it). The Eastern Command would have never surrendered to Bengali militias. They only surrendered to India because they knew...
