1) sleeping around is bad, it has societal, social, moral implications but then i see guys in beards throw around words like misyar and mutaah. what is that all about and why does it make any sense.
2) some say interest is usury, fine. but then the same people look at 'shariah compliant financing" , explain to me how shriah based financing in essence is any different than a fixed interest mortgage?
3) if you are not a blood relative you are na mehram and you observe hijab..so how does a simple act of nursing a child make him a 'mehram' its not that his genes changed, its not that he became a blood relative.
4) I am have read by some that muslims should not dress like nonmuslims and that my jeans and jacket are bad, usually the type of people saying that are wearing the clothes traditional to their geographical area and either were clothes that they and non muslism both wore..and wear like iom middle east, or pakistan and india..

1) Context specific at the best ... hypocrisy at the worst
2) Made up nonesense designed to get Muslims to take out loans
3) The person is made up of three centres, physical, emotional and spiritual the answer does not lie in genetics (physical) domain. If there is imbalance then of course forget milk relatives even blood relatives are not sacrosanct and you can get pure incest in cases where the sacred balances are tipped.
4) If someone can take a look at you and call you a Muslim and you have covered the aura and that you resemble your own gender in the region you live ... then you know you are on a winner. Ignore everyone else.
