does worshiping a country in which one lives as a mother unislamic?

Answer 1

If you are nationalist, & if u feel SOMETHING for ur country,
"NO RELIGION ", will stop u from expresing ur thoughts on
"Your Nation".

Answer 2

you can certainly respect and worship motherland. my question to the cleric is how do we do that worshiping? its in fact a love for the country , mother land and father land by some sort of celebrations, songs or festivals.

in fact there is no such restrcitions in Islam.

Vande mataram is different , which in English is "worship the mother".

my friends of divine religions will also agree that worpship can be done to God only.

Answer 3

YES, No Deity is Worth to Be Worshipped Except ALLAH Almighty (Islam is quite clear abt it, its even in the First Kalima), Not even ur own Country. We Can Love our Country, can die while defending it, can work for its prosperity, But Can Never Worship it. Its quite similar to that, we Love our mother very much, But we never worship her, though we respect her great deal. This idea is Pure UnIslamic and Leads to Infidelity (Shirk). I hope i made it quite clear. Peace to All.

Answer 4

Patriotism is not worship of one's motherland, or country. This just demonstrates the ignorance of those Islamic clerics. They however worship a rock in Mecca.

Answer 5

It's very possible to learn to sing well. You just need to know the right methods. Learn here https://tr.im/hgOlm

Singing teachers will cost money and can be expensive so they're not for everyone. Singing can be learned so it's not an "either you have it or you don't" kind of thing.

Whether you sound like crap or you're decent, I recommend this singing course. It's one of the best methods to learn to sing well in a short amount of time. It's all about using efficient techniques that work.

Answer 6

If islam is for good then doesnt it teach muslim to adore a land which has given birth to marvelous people who sacrificed their life to protect our freedom (freedom of Hidus, muslim, sikhs their community and their faith). After all shias worship the warriors of islam.

So, Doent a motherland need a prayer too ? Doent it worh a respect equal to worhip ?

Answer 7

singing the national anthem, or any other song is not worshiping it, it is just a sign of respect for the country. Its sort ofa prayer to keep itsafefrom hatred and pain. ItstheMuslim clerics, with their speeches of hatred for the infidel who are wrong.

Answer 8

The Prophet [pbuh] went to war with Mecca when it was ruled by pagans.There is no one worthy of worship save Allah.The lord of the worlds.by the way the rock is not worshipped,it is highly respected because of its religious significance.note to all..plz try and get your info on islam from practicing muslims as opposed to those who are at odds with us.

Answer 9

I'm not Islamic but it makes sense that a created object has no life of itself. So, even if Islamic, the recognition of a higher power that is in fact intelligent is correct. There is much in the world but only humans speak to each other. Not the trees, rocks, or water.

Answer 10

To respect our land is wonderful and to worship our Lord is the best. I dont know about your religion however I know to worship God and respect all else

Answer 11

Of course it is unIslamic if you keep using the word 'Worship'. Why not substitute words like 'Appreciate', 'Cherish' or 'Love'. I think it works much better for all religions.
