They prefer the pleasure of Allah over what is currently being deemed "fashionable" amongst pop culture in America.  My mother in law is American, and while in college in the 60's she left Christianity for Islam.  This was her own desicion and she chose to wear a head scarf because that is what is liked by Allah, my wife was raised in this country and nobody has ever forced hear to wear a head scarf but she does purely for the sake of Allah, for that is what is liked by Allah, and surely the hereafter is better in comfort than the life of this world.

I find it crazy how people can sacrifice their physical comfort because of some words in a book that was written 1400 years ago when they have a choice not to do so.

The difference between you and I is that you are a slave to popular culture, and if popular culture doesn't currently accept that behaivor than you don't except it.  I am a slave to Allah, and I know that Allah is watchful of everything that I do, so a Muslim behaves in ways that are pleasing to Allah.

Why do you find it crazy? I don't agree with some country's rules about forcing the veils, but when its up to the person and they find it comforting, why not? People are different, thats something so simple and yet something almost all of us need to learn

Women in America sometimes wear long dresses, and dress modestly, because they want to.  If they want to wear less, that's their choice and they won't be punished or killed for it, because they're free to do what ever they want, as long as they dont' hurt anybody or deny someone else's rights. 

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!

or their parents make them go to Christian and Catholic schools as kids, where theyre forcefed a bunch of bullshit. Then, because of the pressure placed on them by our society, when they become teenagers they develop a severe eating dissorder and possibly some sort of drug addiction which a minimum wage job just wont be able to afford so they turn and sell their pussy for crack on the streets....

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!

it's still their choice.

in some places, arabic women can't even do a 1/3 of those things without being punished

what im saying is, before you judge look at yourself. Im American, but why is it i dont have this arrogant American attitude that is the the reason why half of the world hates us. I dont see us as BETTER then all these places. We do our share of FUCKED up shit, most of which the American people dont even know about. A lot of which, nobody knows about because its kept under wraps so well and lied about. It seems like all we want, is to be lied to....Americans dont want the truth about ourselves. We want to be lied to, we want to be told we're the best. We want to be told that when we're not liked...its the other persons fault, "theyre just jealous". LOL. Think how childish that mentality is? Its always the other guy. Fuck that, its US. And we can point fingers, over and over...and we can say we want to help all these other countries with their problems...but thats ALL bullshit until we admit what WE do wrong, and how WE wrong people. Other countries, aswell as our own citizens. But Americans are just too self-centered to do that.

so it's america's fault that women in islam have to wear veils? interesting

The problem is, in those countries...wearing veils isnt "wrong" by their standards. Its wrong by ours. However, in our country...things like Murder and Drug use are considered wrong, and the Government still OK's it. If you dont think they do, dig a little deeper...
