I used to brag so highly of Indonesians, about how they’re the largest Muslim country so on and so on, but it sounds like you guys really need to get with it. ANd for someone who carry’s the name of our teacher sallalahu alaihi wa salam, you really should reconsider your view, and comments…
Kann,
Respectfully it is you who should get with it, read and understand Al Quran for the sake of your Soul.
I don’t carry the name of your teacher, your teachers are the fabricators of Sunnah and Hadith, not The Prophet. Unfortunately you have become so enamoured of Prophet Mohammed, that you will believe what anybody says as long as they say it came from him, Instead of following the clear commands of Allah you would rather follow the fabrications of your Sunnah and Hadith writers.
As I asked of the previous poster, please if you can, enlighten me with the Islamic dress code from Al Quran. Allah’s word doesn’t need explanations or additions, His word is, as He says, Complete, Perfect and Fully Detailed!
The Deen of Islam as given by Allah, has not changed since the days of Nabi Ibrahim, it was not changed when it was given to Nabi Musa, nor when Nabi Isa came to try and return the Jews to the Straight Path. There is only one Sunnah and that is Sunnatallah! You followers of Sunnah and Hadith have been blinded to SunnatAllah by your idolisation of The Prophet, and just as some Christians have been denied Islam by their idolisation of Nabi Isa, you have made exactly the same mistake by your idolisation of The Rasuul. Allah does not need partners!
Salaam
Islam as it was given to us, is for all time, and for all of humanity. It doesn’t need to be clothed in the rituals and traditions of the arabs.

For somebody who has professed to study all three of the Abrahamic religions, you seem to have learnt very little. What do you mean “before Islam came”? Islam is the only way given by Allah.
Judeaism, Christianity, and mainstream Islam as practiced by the majority of Muslims today, are just corruptions of that same deen. The rules are just the same as those that Nabi Musa was given. All the rest are manmade corrutions and fabrication, created by power seeking human beings.
By the way, please enlighten us with the Islamic dress code from Al Quran, please note, not from the corrupted Sunnah and Hadith, but with the truth from Allah contained in Al Quran.
Peace
