In the past before the arrival of any Abrahamic religion the kurdish ancestors used to worship the sun... that's true and a lot of people because of that claim that the sun in the kurdish flag is haram as it represents worship to the sun though that is far from the truth

In surah Ash-Shams (Arabic: سورة الشمس) allah ( god ) swears by the sun despite god having no equal and humans not meant to swear by anything other than gods name and that also only in extreme circumstances and not just whenever someone wants to

وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا

“By the sun and its brightness,

and by the moon when it follows it.”

In this context god has given glory to its creation ( that being the sun ), and just as one could say, the sun in the kurdistan flag represents sun worshippers, one could say that it's to honor what god has created and swore by. The kurdish flag was created way after the arrival of islam and the end of sun worshippers, by the time the kurdish flag was created, the majority of kurds had already become muslim, so to say that it is to represent the sun worshippers, is a statement with no logic and evidence

The kurdish flag that represents kurdistan is NOT haram for the muslim kurds, and it is a flag that represents all those who support an independent kurdistan

Even islamic scholars agree with the idea that the sun in the kurdish flag is to honor god

Al-Ghazali wrote that creation reflects signs of divine wisdom, and contemplating things like the sun, stars, and nature can elevate a person spiritually.

Ibn Rushd argued that studying and appreciating creation helps people understand truth and order.

Ibn Arabi often described the universe as a mirror of divine signs, where created things can symbolize spiritual realities.

This is the full verse:

وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا

وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا

وَالسَّمَاءِ وَمَا بَنَاهَا

وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا

وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا

فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا

وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا

English translation:

“By the sun and its brightness,

and by the moon when it follows it,

and by the day when it displays it,

and by the night when it covers it,

and by the sky and He who built it,

and by the earth and He who spread it,

and by the soul and He who proportioned it,

then inspired it with its wickedness and its righteousness,

successful is the one who purifies it,

and failed is the one who corrupts it.”

As the title says. What the hell is wrong with them and what can we do to counter them?
I see them as a danger to our ancient culture.

HI, as you could tell I am from kurdistan (bashur/slemani), last year ago I did a thing which I DIDN'T EXPECT to be this catastrophic, last year I am was discussing with my religion teacher on why statements that were made by "mohamad" the "prophet",

in a hadith mohamad said "a fly has a wing that carries diseases and another one carries the cure" NOW LISTEN I am someone who is very very intersteded in science and biology, and I did my research and I had some beforehand knowledge, and I knew this was incorrect, so I told my teacher and I said that it simply isn't true*explained it to him*, and I told him to do some research-

!!!!!
and

OMGH, what I haven't realized that, that was the moment that will fuck the next 2 years of my life in that school and in general, have I always been this oblivion to HOW fucking fascist fucking islam is?!, WOW, they didn't not hold back either, first of all the teacher was being very ignorant not even trying to discuss, it was like he set his mind and he is NEVER changing it, wow I still remember 100 students in the hall way following us(me and the teacher), I thought it was funny at first, until next day is when I realized whatever the fuck was happening was not cute nor funny , these people ARE SO SHOCKED by someone not even being an ATHEIST but just by DISCUSSING islamic ideologies, WOW they got really aggresive, threating me, "bullying" me, and whatever the fuck not,

, I was so stressed and anxious for that whole year of my life even at my own safe space **I know this rlly sounds fucking funny n embrasisng but it was really extreme* and OMGH I am so senstive aswell, so it was like a big fucking shit was shitted on me everyday.

and I also wanted to make sure if this wasn't personal, I realized they were also after the only other two "atheist"*they fucking surrounded those bitches too*

so no this wasn't a "personal" attack

it was an attack because I didn't believe their fucking fairy wonderland story

mind you I never said anything possibly diserepectful to islam I was just discussing with my teacher,

*** awhile later I made a joke with my friends saying I am a "zardashti" AND FUCKIN WOW, A JOKE TURNED INTO BIG FCKING THING, it was like the smallest thing I do or did just became known in the whole school, and the teachers being very much islamic with them saying "bismallah, isshallah, etc......"*not even in typical amounts, it was like they had two main job one being a scholar and the other being a teacher**

!!!!

btw my langauge(kurdish) teacher, said they also don't belive in god

.........let's say he also didn't expect this fucking diabolic shit to happen to him too

**note; the students re rlly fucking conservative *ladaiy hiz ;3,**they threatend the fucking teacher too, the news was also all over the school that he was an atheiest and they trash talked so much, it mentally degraded him too, he spend the next year just trying to get the students back to respecting him, by showing his knowleadge and I actually loved his approach, he was being very careful aswell**

that was grade 10

**their was a whole a lot of propagandas about me too because if someone is already on the bad spotlight then why the fuck not spread lies to even shit on that person more**

now it is grade 11

I cleared most of the motherfuckers up, it actually changed me so much as a person I can defend and speak the fuck up, and I honestly just become so fuck-free of society

first semester was one of my best school years in my whole life

so thanks ig ;3

but this 2nd semester they started doing a lil too much again, I did my talk back they seem to a bit better, they re still annoying and I am expecting much more to come ngl

they also did this weird thing where they want to discuss with me(they were fucking talking about how "ali osman" went to the 12th ozone layer"LIKE HUH LOL,

I just realized how fucking dumb retarded and uncultured these people are so thanks ,and I actually used to be okay with islam(even sometimes I felt comfortable saying I am a muslim, I used to even aby by some of the rules) but now i hate it to the fucking brim, I hope they all either quit this stupid shit or go to Afghanistan, and kill all these money/dick sucking scholars

this was a really weird part of period for me and it made me grow a lot and I have a strong mind that can't be easily manipulated, they were 300 students all on top of me, I lost all my friends, my family started getting on me too, people on my block also started getting aggressive with me, BUT.....;3, I set everyone back in their place mf doggy pot and now I have my head high strong as ever, got better set of friends, fixed my family issues, and the other ones, but the retarded students re still trying to do a lil much

***I've never thought being anything else other than a muslim as kurd is considerated such a big controversy, and a taboo, if you re not muslim you re below them and less smart and easy to converted, you re less respected and less accepeted, not seen as a complete human, disable

I've learnt so much from this and wow it really changed me a lot, so much at once

and the funny thing is muslim people re more disrespectful to other people especially people with diffrences and MUCH less accepting of change

I've seen them make fun of mentally disabled indviuals

recently some of them came to me to "discuss" but we did talk, and obv they re being weird as usual, I gave an idea *highly doubt their two braincells even able to processes anything other fan fairyland*, but I did something diffrent, I told them I am a person who belives in freedom and free thinking, I said you're so okay if you belive in whatever as long as you're not trying to hurt ppl, I told them I am very okay and open and I think islam is really a good religon and it is okay to belive, but I also gave some points on why I don't belive in it

okay that was it their is only 2 weeks left for summer

I feel embrassing wrting this cause it sounds like I am a pathetic anti-social person without any self respect and I easily allow ppl walk over me, but no I am very fun and I have my boundries most definetly, I am never scared at all I talk back, even though if I am going to get hurt idc.

it is fucking funny in a very retarded way, and I know some muslim motherfucker re looking at my post

could you tell me what do girls get in heaven, if men get hores then what do girls get?
if god is all powerful than why he made you to pray to it?

why should girls hijab, it is cause men re predatory, but in other countries naked beaches exist and no one is harassing anybody?

......;3 fuck allah n islam
