Are those men just robots? I feel sorry for them, especially the women. Guess they want to spread this culture via dakwah. Beware of radical islam.
Also, there are many Catholics in Kalimantan, mostly they are Dayak. I wonder what would happen if these men try to spread dakwah there. Rather than trying to get more follower (quantity), islam should focus on improving the quality, particularly in reducing radicalism. Take lessons from several other older religions.
The migrants group like the Javanese, Banjars, Madurese and the Bugis might convert, but indigenous Dayaks were known to be religious-proof. Their kinship association is stronger than any religion – the recent conflict saw Dayaks from all religious denomination joining force against Muslim Madurese. Visit Kalimantan during one of Kaharingan festival, and you can see Muslim, Christian and Animist Dayaks gathering together slaughtering buffaloes and pigs for their supreme God ‘Allah’. Some tribes call their God, Allah, but this is a pork-eating Allah. Christian Dayaks from remote area celebrated Christmas by slaughtering chicken and pigs to their God, Jesus. Islam and Christianity are pretty mess up there. ![]()
I doubt dakwah can be successful as it had failed in the past.
I don’t want to marry a woman I never met, what about you?
“The migrants group like the Javanese, Banjars, Madurese and the Bugis might convert.”
Aren’t these groups already Muslim?
This dakwah is focused on “converting” moderate muslims to hidayatullah brand of fundamental islam, they don’t really bother so much with non-muslims.
Yes marring an unknown woman and spread. Who is doing the spreading, the women supposedly. So many fools and the dumb gets dumber.
Jeez, no wonder my country are moving backward deeper down the drain with our inferior complex attitude, how can we dream to be a developed country with these muslim sect ?
Marriage by proxy. WOW !
Ok from what i know from Islam, the marriage is not valid until the bride and groom see one another cuz maybe there will be no attraction between the couple.
What if there’s no attraction even after they see one another?
