The misnomer of Arabic culture and Islamic culture for sure needs to be separated. Sorry to be mathematical, but this is how my thoughts were formed. I think the abouve really doesn't recognise the use of culture in the widest sense of the word, I am aware of this limitation but still feel the above illustrates a valid point. Allah knows best, Don't be sad Aslaamu alikum wa rahamatullah

Culture= Culture
Culture that goes against the Qur’an and Sunnah= UnIslamic
Culture that doesn’t go against the Qur’an and Sunnah=It makes us who we are- for instance a Muslim from Britain and a Muslim from China- this make Islam diverse and beautiful.
