It's not about the ladi, dear @xiao-aine. It's about something written on the picture. Tha lady herself is one respected singer in my country.
Why do you think we aren't allowed to?
So only girls women need to cover vips not. Interesting
No. You're misunderstanding things. Or maybe I misunderstand you. Indonesia is a big country. No Islamic law is forced in our nation, but some provinces like Aceh have put Islamic law as the positive law, that -one of it's point- requires women to cover their heads.
While the woman in the picture was a national singer, not from Aceh.
And actually, in recent times, the adoption of Islamic teachings has become more widespread and increasingly supported in our country, even though it is not part of positive law. In areas that do not implement Islamic law, even in big cities, covering the head is increasingly becoming a part of Indonesian women's culture.
Islamic law implemented in Aceh is not as bad as it might appear in news written by those who do not favor it. Although I myself also have some points of correction for the implementation of that law.
You can come to Aceh and not covering your head (if you are an adult woman), but just dress modestly. Many non-moslem living peacefully in Aceh.
I wish men would dress modesty. It doesn't look great all those hairy bodies. I liked Turkey it's closer plus we've got their shops and company. Kind people
How many nonn muslim? 1 out of 5000?
"Men should dress modestly." You will definitely feel at home in Aceh.
I don't know the exact number. But they're many. I am now living in Java Island. In my hometowns Banda Aceh and Lhokseumawe and some other cities I ever lived in in Aceh, You can easily find non muslims. Non-Muslim places of worship are also easy to find.
In Aceh, there are also many ethnicities, including people of Chinese descent. Many people of Chinese descent have converted to Islam, leading to the formation of a Chinese convert community. Aceh has a long history with China and Turkey.
Where do you live exactly. Turkish are kind, I agree.
After the earthquake and tsunami disaster that struck in 2004, many humanitarian workers from around the world came to help Aceh, some of them from Turkey. I became acquainted with a group of Turks who were engaged in humanitarian activities together. During the Ottoman Empire era, Aceh and Turkey were two sovereign kingdoms with close diplomatic relations. Turkey is mentioned in Aceh's history.
I am not into religion so church is not my thing. I don't like how people hide behind it without taking responsibily for their acts.
I'm not such a traveller and rather stay home, lot to do and there's nothing I can't see on the screen. Saves money.
You moved around a lot. I hope you feel home where you live.. Thanks for the talk will see if I can find Java. A good day to you.
