Would have to be a branch developed in the west then…īut as long as Saudi Arabia has oil and therefor influence (other then just owning meka which is huge) they will likely be pushing their particularly nasty Salafi/Wahabi branch of islam. No equivelent of the holy roman emperor fighting it out with the pope to define what power either party should hold…

Though also with Islam sadly never had its big blow out between secular power and religious power so the two never properly separated… I mean the middle east in some areas where more like the west in the past… and Iraq even more so given Sadam husein was not all that fond of rival power bases… kings generally keep tend to wanna undermine organized religion since its a dangerous possible competing power base… It’s also worth mentioning that it was not very long ago christian countries would have women covering their heads more too and western fashions where more common in the middle east before a lot of the cold war crap happend and the region got de-stabalized and religious right wing groups took more power… So arguably that could be interpreted to say the that some like a Hijab could be inappropriate in the west even… well at least the burka or niqab for sure as those stand out way to much! I generally think that depends… if i remember correctly the relevant verses speak about women not being allowed to dress provocatively… which arguably is relative to the local culture…
#PHARAH OVERWATCH SKIN#
Before you say “what does this have to do with the game” or some crap just remember that soldier 76 has a skin with dog tags that say his religion is Catholic, Reaper has one that says he has no religion, Kings Row spawn room is a literal church… Zenyatta’s entire existence… so religion definitely exists in the overwatch world, some heroes do identify with one, and im curious to know if these two do as well.Īnyways, i was wondering if it’s possible ana and pharah are muslim, based off some clues I’ve noticed: neither have any alcoholic drinks in the cookbook (i know some other heroes don’t either but combined with other evidence this could be a point), and drinking is haram in Islam (as are tattoos but… maybe they’re not very practicing?) pharah has a line “peace be upon you, Khalil,” a common greeting/blessing in Islam (I know zen says peace be upon you too but context!!), in her comic Khalil even quotes the quaran “he who saves one life, it is as if he saves the whole world,” and this resonates with her (after he dies, anyway), I think I saw somewhere Ana’s default skin headpiece was based off of a hijab? as well as Pharah’s Bedouin skin… and yeah, I think that’s all I’ve got, besides ofc that egypt is a majority Muslim country and they’re both from there… do you think my “theory” holds any water?
