What's new

57% Indians want Hijab to be banned in schools and colleges,53% Indians feel Muslim men indulge in Love Jihad.

ancestral property would be equally split among all living dependents male and female.

In case of widow, the immovable property will go to males members and the immovable property will go to his wife and son / daughter.

In chapter 2 of Book 3 of Arthashastra, a woman's property is defined as a "means of subsistence or jewellery".

This divsion of property which is mainly benefiting patriarchy is a bit concerning. Why not distribute the inheritance as a whole?


Btw do all Hindus living across globe believe in this property split?

This was the law 2500 years back. Not the law today.

Today its the Indian constitution that the Hindus follow.

You guys follow a colonial law instead of your own ? We dont , in fact Muslim states don't .

Keep religion out of schools that's about it. Afaik most pvt schools have a strict dress code, govt run schools allow hijab (i gues? or are more relaxed on it's usage).
Love Jihad term is a political instrument so no point cribbing on it's validity.

Common wealth countries follow common law ie the Indian Penal Code and Pakistan Penal Code for Pakistan. It's mostly the same barring for some local adjustments.
The law works as it's a good and reliable system mostly not that a perfect system exists.

Family laws to be specific.

Why you're surprised? Pagans are uncultured. They have to adapt Abrahamic culture to survive...
I'm not a religious guy but according to your definition every religion is pagan to someone else.
Just like Vikings were pagans for Anglo Saxons.
I personally don't think I'd like to follow a ancient book which can't be modified per se and where every word is interpreted as it is with no changes over time. Not that my view matters. Nor do I favor the regressive aspects of vedas, it was a product of it's time.
The best culture is one which adapts and integrates with the current norm. The society exists for the Individual and not the individual for society. The social contract theory of forming nations states was so that each human gets security for his life and property and we get out of a permanent state of anarchy.
Going by Bentham's Utilitarian principle the majority decide the rights of minority according to their interests so that's what happens in different societies.

Hindu family laws, muslim family laws and common law principles all exist separately
Principles of equity and just conscience being a thing.

LOL, indian state doesn't even keep pagan religion out of military parade and you're here sermoning about keeping religion out of school!

indian hindus are a threat for Muslims.
Being secular doesn't mean you cannot preach or showcase the religion of the masses.
India is secular which incorporates people of different religions which constitute a minority. Is India a hindu state? Yes Is India Secular too? Yes.
The country wasn't formed on religious lines and gives equal constitutional rights to all citizens but still has a majority Hindu population, and Hindu Muslim practices/customs have kinda merged at places.
In India you'll find different Hindu Muslim practices according to the state. A lot changes when you move states not just the dialect.
The best way to avoid unneeded controversy is to not allow any sort of religious garb in schools.
Just like Turkey is majoritarily Muslim and authoritative but still secular.

For me, Quran is a constitution from God, so Quran will never change. Other current existing religions are corrupt and satanic so they must adapt time to time to retain followers.

God gave us right and freedom to choose, you can choose to follow his constitution or you can choose follow Mr Satan. In the end of the day you will be judged by god based on your choice...

That's it, it's about your ideology at the end of the day. I think that Humans like to look at life in such a way so they get the satisfaction that something bigger than them is waiting for them after it all ends, it can be seen how religions evolved historically. We as a race have always been curious and afraid of things which we don't understand (for example the mayans used to sacrifice people during eclipse as they thought it was a wrath of god) The whole judgment after death thing too, i mean if such a god exists there will be a long line and billion of men to be vetted, and what is "just" or moral for a "god" do you think? humanity has evolved the principles of natural justice and human rights. Our sense of morality won't apply to other beings it's something intrinsic to the evolution of us humans.
Science too is not a permanent thing, maybe in the next 200yrs the things we know could be shattered completely and the things we think are constant and permanent like atoms, organic matter, relativity of time is breached. Just wonder that you could be executed by the church in the dark eras for not agreeing that earth is flat.
Humanity is a self preserving race that will always be riddled with dogmas and ideologies maybe this hate will be our end after all.
If there are superior beings out there maybe someone way more advanced than us on a civilizational scale can they be called gods per say? We would be like a little puny planet and race for them that is in the "early stages" of civilization. I mean a billion stars and hundreds of thousands of solar systems there's no end to the possibilities!
this went a lot offtopic but just found this notion pretty interesting
different ways of thinking imo.

India is a hindu country not secular. In india Muslims are 3rd class citizens yet hindus are occupying Kashmir which is a Muslim land on gun point and killing Muslims.

hindus are a real threat for Muslims.

Yah, india is a hindu country where Muslims are 3rd class citizens. Just because indian constitution says india is a secular country that doesn't mean india practices secularism. hindus are dishonest people...

Don't know about hinduism, but islam doesn't replace it's followers local culture. Islam asks to make culture Islamic law compliant. Thats it.

Im fine as long as everyone is forced to follow the same standard. But, we all know hindus, only Muslims will be targeted by them.
Just like Turkey is majoritarily Muslim and authoritative but still secular.
Turkey is 99% Muslim. Their secularism gives freedom of choice. Indian secularism is for targeting and harming Muslims...
