What @dharmi wrote a few posts ago is true actually. It's almost like Muslims live in a different world of their own. I had once gone through a Muslim majority area and it just seemed so odd and alien to me. People too were literally staring at me, although women were few, majority of them were in burkhas. And yes, majority Muslims in India certainly seem to be backward. Now you'll say what about Hindus? Yes, Hindus too are backward and Hindus tend to be more casteist but Hindus also tend to be more progressive percentage wise. For example, you can simply take the example of migrants. People in Western countries don't have as much problem with Hindu migrants as they have with Muslims. That's a big indication of how the educated people in those communities fare.
For all their hate of Brahmins, Muslims literally act like Brahmins in the sense that they consider themselves superior to 'kaffirs' since they consider their religion as superior. Another reason why they don't assimilate as much with others as they think that they might be exposed 'Un-Islamic' thinking or 'Un-Islamic' ideas or 'Un-Islamic' culture.
I once had gone to a Hindu village outside of Jaisalmer. It seemed so odd and alien to me. There were hardly any women outside and those that were, all were wearing a ghoonghat so low that I could not even see their face. All the men were staring at me. It was very scary. I thought I was doing something wrong by just walking in the village.
All the men seemed very backward as they were sitting on a "charpai". They did not even have any chairs to sit down. Strange. I went to a store to buy Pepsi and they never heard of it. The water they sold wasn't even cold. Very strange people.
