since we are talking religious dress codes, as a Hindu who does not have this in my culture, tell me why Hindu married women are still veiling themselves in 2026.
I am all for #KarwaChauth debate as long as we are also debating religious dress codes and why most Muslim women and girls in India are still practicing hijab burqa? I will not debate the former while tiptoeing around the latter.

If she actually really cared about his opinions, she would know that he always talked about unity among the marginalised. You see-liberal feminists like Ruchika would always want to capture discourse. You would never see her amplifying Dalit and Muslim women voices but cry-
Ironically for all the support that Sharjeel has for his brand of religious supremacism, it is because of religious supremacism that he's unjustly incarcerated, albeit a different brand. Just goes on to show how dangerous religious supremacism is, it has no place for minorities, women and the caste marginalised. All brands of religious supremacism must be condemned unequivocally!

Dr Ruchika is worried of Islam when Muslims are being killed in daylight just for their identity .Denouncing Muslims who are believer in the abstract just because they quoted quranic verses while Hindutva fascists are genociding Muslims is not secularism .It is objectively aiding the enemy. This is the same error the "new atheists" made when they provided ideological cover for the "war on terror."

this is sending me for so many reasons but i absolutely love how sanghi ID-ing if ideological opponents is always something like "CIA funded vatican jihadi communist" like what are you even talking about

For those who cry hoarse about medieval Muslim rulers imposing jizya on their Hindu subjects, and their supposed bigotry, here's a few of the taxes imposed on Kashmiri Muslims by the Dogra regime in the late 1800s. To start with, a tax for the maintenance of Hindu temples. (1/n)

घर जलाने को मेरा, लोग जो घर में आये
शाकाहारी थे मेरे दोस्त तुम्हारे खंजर
तुमने बाबर की तरफ फेकें थे सारे पत्थर,
है मेरे सर की खता, जख्म जो सर में आये
- kaifi azmi, doosra banvaas

iron and stone would melt from the sighs of my grieving heart,
yet your heart does not soften; ah, what a strange creature you are!
i became dust upon your path, hoping to be beneath your feet,
yet you pass by blissfully, fluttering your wings in another direction.

रात सलेटी
एक पूरा चाँद
पौने दुख की कोई गठरी
आधे सपनों की राख लपेटे
एक चौथाई टुकड़ा जिजिविषा का
कोई शून्य
भर नैनों में
जाग रहा है एक बंजारा
और इक
ताना बाना
गूंथ रहा है यार जुलाहा
जीवन के
घूमते चक्के पर
कोई प्याला बना रहा कूज़ागर
