| Religious Views | Urfi does not have faith in Islam. check sources Koi Moi In an interview, she said, "To be very honest, I donāt believe in Islam and Iāve never believed in it. I feel a lot of things in Islam are a bit regressive but so are in other religions as well. The world is changing at a very fast pace but religions are not and just because of that reason some people are lagging behind. This is the main reason behind the generation gap because people are not ready to change. I donāt like the fact that Islam allows four weddings. Triple talaq was banned and I think it was for the best.ā She does not like the restrictions that are imposed on women in the name of religion. She said, "In Islam also there are many things that women should wear burkha and they should stay behind a parda, I donāt understand these things. If a girl wants to do it willingly then it is fine. One should not force something on others.ā She also said it straight that she would never marry a Muslim man. check sources India Today She said, "I am a Muslim girl. Most of the hate comments I receive are from Muslim people. They say that I am tarnishing the image of Islam. They hate me because Muslim men want their women to behave in a certain way. They want to control all the women in the community. I donāt believe in Islam because of this. The reason why they troll me is because I don't behave the way they expect me to as per their religion.ā |
