The Cultures of Islam
‘Muslim culture’ represents many distinct Muslim cultural groups such as the Asian Muslims, the Middle Eastern, the African, the European and the American Muslims, all of them with their own divergence in customs and traditions. Some customs and traditions may be more motivated by culture than by religion. Though, some aspects of their religion or culture are accepted by all Muslims of the world. Such as, Muslims believe in the Oneness of Lord, the Holy Books, and all Prophets from Adam to Muhammad (PBUH) without discrimination, and the Day of Judgment. If we consider Cultural commonalty it includes giving charity, an expectation to maintain a balance between responsibility to the Creator and to their fellow man, and focusing particularly on the care, love, and respect for the elderly and younger. Islam is also seen as an all-comprehensive way of life relatively strict exclusive religious code because of its focus on balancing personal and public life.
