    Does the Noble Quran only refer to OpenVPN tunnels or it also covers WireGuard? What if I’m setting my own server on a halal VPS?

    Didn’t their prime minister recently use a VPN to congratulate Trump on X, which is blocked from access by the same govt?

    This is plainly insane.

    The Flying Spaghetti Monster has decreed to me that VPN use is totally cool and his worshipers should feel ok using them. 🍝

          For the entire planet, prior to the last few hundred years. Religion agreed, because pedos are attracted to power and religious leaders were the most powerful.

        Are you saying dislike of child molestation is Islamaphobic?

              The user didn’t point it out that tho. Reaching puberty is the age of consent according to the Quran and Aishas age isn’t a fact like you present it as. Marriage and intercourse are two different things in islam. Idk what you mean by justifying it. It was a societal norm, not only in the arab deserts but the whole world that practised in now what’s called child marriage. This is general knowledge.

              There was no school or any other societal structure that kept kids separate from adult responsibilities back in the day, so comparing the age of consent now vs then( as long as just a century ago) doesn’t make sense. Differentiating a man vs a boy was decided by his mastery of trade he was apprenticed in. A girl and a women, periods.

              You could ask the same question about the bible which set the societal norm of this exact context. Or judaism which goes even futher to state even while things which I don’t want to say cause I don’t want to get banned. Do not say this is whataboutism cause it’s not. The arabian peninsula was indeed heavily influenced by judaism and Christianity before Muhammad was born.

              Edit: forgot to add that it’s not a practise anymore except some extremist groups like the taliban and some remote places like in yemen.

                Just FYI most people who calling out Islam are also calling the Catholics for covering child rape too…

                So don’t even try that. You really need to do some thinking about what you are trying to argue why you feel compelled to take this idiotic aplogist position.

                Mohammed was a pedophile, Catholic clergy ar pedophiles… Until religionous people and their corrupt institutions admit this, there is nothing to talk about.

                And online communities will continue to call out this unacceptable positions for what they are…

                Pedophilia apologia

                PS so we are clear… What Israel is going in Gaza is genocide. But being a Muslim doesn’t give anyone a right to justify pedophilia

            It’s “the advisory board of religious affairs.” You think that group of people can’t be religious nuts?

            Also, it’s 100% about religion because their entire excuse is that it runs contrary to religious law. I mean, to your credit, you’re kinda right because this does have nothing to truly do with religion and is about control. But they’re using religion to do it.

            “Using a VPN goes against our religious beliefs?” Come the fuck on.

              Read the article. The title is click bait. They never claimed using a vpn is against their religion.
