The Unthinkable happens: Arabs start losing their religious zeal

[Juggernaut_Flat_Plane_V8]

Daily chart
Arabs are losing faith in religious parties and leaders
Religious zeal is also falling in the region, particularly among the young



“NO TO RELIGION or sect,” cry the protesters in Iraq. “No to Islam, no to Christianity, revolt for the nation,” echo those in Lebanon. Across the Arab world people are turning against religious political parties and the clerics who helped bring them to power. Many appear to be giving up on Islam, too.

These trends are reflected in new data from Arab Barometer, a pollster that surveys Arab countries. Across the region the share of people expressing much trust in political parties, most of which have a religious tint, has fallen by well over a third since 2011, to 15%. (The share of Iraqis who say they do not trust parties at all rose from 51% to 78%.) The decline in trust for Islamist parties is similarly dramatic, falling from 35% in 2013, when the question was first widely asked, to 20% in 2018

Arabs are losing faith in religious parties and leaders

 

[Uguduwa]

Religious or not I think their culture encourage laziness and big talking over hard work so I don't think this will make a big difference.

 

[Timur]

why unthinkable?

its a global trend!

 

[El Sidd]

It is a sign of the end of the world where non Arabs would unite and conquer India

There is significant differences between Arabs and Turks in Germany

Arab men seem to be in a permanent state of bad mood...While Turks can be cheerful,jovial,banterous

The way Arab men talk here is as if they are displeased with one another

It is a sign of the end of the world where non Arabs would unite and conquer India

Aaaj thoda zyaada nahin ho gaya?

no worries we Pakistanis will cover the shortfall
we re more Arab than the Arabs and more Persians than the Persians.

South Asian Muslims feel that Persians,Arabs,Turks are somehow better quality Muslims...There is a whole Ashraf, Ajlaf classification there regarding Middle Eastern or Central Asian ancestry

By the same logic, South Asian Muslims automatically assume that these above groups must have much more sincere piety

I am pretty sure the Arab men you are talking about are most probably iraqi or Egyptians

 

[Areesh]

One thing people don't seem to understand is that Islam is not property of arabs

Arabs can go eff themselves. Islam is here to stay irrespective of arabs

What is this pile of shit

A human by his basic psychology will have multiple state of moods, joyous, anger and sadness are parts of that. Here we have someone disputing that.

Before writing, think more about it
