First of all, Globalization changes peoples’ value. Nurullah (2008) in his article “Globalization as a Challenge to Islamic Cultural Identity,” writes globalization’s outcome is the acceptance of Western belief systems and values by non-Western societies. It does not matter if these societies’ beliefs systems are founded on religious principles, or not. The end result is the same whether the belief system is founded on Islamic principles or whether the belief system is simply manmade traditions. Both systems – when faced with globalization – are at risk of being replaced by Western beliefs and values. For example, few years ago Kuwaiti girls had a different mindset they weren’t allowed to hang out with friends alone. In order to go out they

Muslims started to ignore their culture and seek for other cultures, and believe in them. As a result, Yusuf (1961) writes, the right etiquettes of dressing for women and also men must steadfastly be followed in Islamic countries. Clothes shouldn’t be so tight in order not to show the curves of the body, and not to grab attention. For example, in the early 1970s, people who lived in an Islamic country within an Islamic culture used to dress very differently than they do nowadays. Women who used to wear Hijab, used to also wear Abayas. If not wearing Hijab and you can rarely find women without Hijab, they used to wear long dresses and covering clothes. When Globalization took over and mobiles and social media are vastly spread all over the world. People found it very easy to publicize their culture and affect others. It really happened, Globalization changed peoples’ value. For example, Muslims are now imitating other cultures, in their way of dressing. Muslims girls’ way of dressing became more similar to a European way of dressing. Through social medias Muslim girls’ became attracted to the European girls’ style and fashion, and way of dressing. Muslim girls’ began to wear short skirts, and short sleeves shirts instead of covering clothes. Which is improper. In short, Globalization leads people to copy the habits and traditions of other cultures, and forget all about our own culture. People start to forget …show more content…
Muslims start to see their own values as abnormal attitudes, and they start ignoring them.. According to Sahud (2012) he writes, “I too do not think that there is anything to “celebrate” after every 12 months. Anyone celebrating the turning of another year doesn’t really know WHY.” In other words, Muslims shouldn’t celebrate anything more than celebrating Eid AlAdh’ha and Eid AlFetr. For example, In old times, muslims used to celebrate two kinds of feasts, and they are Eid AlFetr and Eid AlAdh’ha. And there are reasons why they celebrate them. Muslims celebrate Eid AlFetr after spending a whole month of fasting, which is called “Ramadhan”, and the reason why they fast is to feel how poor people are living. In addition to Eid Al Adh’ha, according to Jamal (1999) he writes, “Eid Al Adh’ha is the second of two religious holidays celebrated by Muslims worldwide each year. It honors the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his young first-born son Ishmael (Ismail) a as an act of submission to God 's command, before God then intervened to provide Abraham with a lamb to sacrifice instead.” Which shows, why do people celebrate those two feasts, but now a days, Muslims started to celebrate other kind of celebrations such as Father’s day, Mother’s day and Teacher’s day etc. In Islam people aren’t allowed to celebrate them, because everyday is a father, mother and teacher’s day. There are no specific days to show our love and
