Assalamu Alaikum,
I know that this is a very widespread thing among immigrants, but I don't know what exactly it means?
What are the cultural things that muslims in the west are accused of - mixing deen with culture which is contrary to deen?
- one thing I heard was that "black" abayas are cultural, even though this is not true. There are ahadith that prove that women wore black in Medina, which shows it was prevalent, but does not deny other colours.
But what exactly is this cultural baggage?
