Hallo my fellow brothers and sisters, the reason i am making this thread is because over the past 2 years i've encountered some difficulties while studying.
Below are some examples of them
1. While in my PE lessons, the teacher sometimes turns on the music & tells everyone that it's time for dancing & normally all my classmates r cool with this except me since i am the only muslim in the class. Since my class is a mixed one the teacher sometimes pairs up the students ie boy-girl pair.I know that a man cannot dance with a women unless his married to her & viceversa. well at first i used to come up with some lame excuses not to dance, but then again i would run out of ideas. which meant that i had to dance with a girl. Even if i tell my teacher he/ might not understand. what should i do???. the type of dances that the teacher teaches us is usually the cowboy dancing.So there is no body contact with the girls except grabbing the hands.So what i was wondering is what i should do?? and another thing i get graded in this subject. I am planning inshallah to become a doctor & inorder to be allowed to the university i have to high grades. in this country they have a very different
method of grading people.what should i do?? ie they grade people based on the number of subjects taken & much more
2. Also in the school we watch movies and later on are supposed to hand in a film report/ analysis. So when sometimes i am watching these movies a sex/ kissing scene comes up & i immediately close my eyes, cauz i knw it's not allowed in islam. Suppose i tell my teacher about this & he/she understands & i am allowed not to watch the movie. You see it doesn't stop there cauz when i talk to my teachers about such issues another one comes up.Since we muslims have different moral values than any other group & what we might consider as immoral to them it's a different story
So here is my final question what can i do to ease the situation & prevent mis-understanding between muslims & non-muslims??????
I knw that muslims studying in non-muslim countries face such problems.So what can be done so that inshallah in the future muslim students have a way of coping with such kind of situations.
I was also wondering what is the limit for a muslim boy/girl to intereact with a non muslim of the oppsite sex.Since we must work with them academically & stuff like that? i would like to hear you different suggestions & opinions
waleikum salam
