With the emergence of Islam, a new way of life was quickly adopted. Religion and culture are not related on many levels. Culture is recognized as the way of life of a certain group, in which they express their ideas in an artistic way. One might believe that culture was present long before religion was introduced into society. It was difficult for people to reconcile their cultural views and their religious views. Many ideas and events that a certain culture considered permissible have proven controversial to the message of Islam. Although it took enormous efforts on the part of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to convince the people of the pre-Islamic world that Islam was ultimately the path of Allah, once people adopted this beautiful religion, they found that changing their culture was simply to their advantage. Since culture is a set of traditions passed down for centuries, people have found it difficult to maintain both. Many ancient tribes present in the pre-Islamic world found it difficult to accept the message. of Islam. The Quraysh are a prime example of a tribe that found the message of Islam very controversial. The Quraysh found that the message of Islam would not coincide with their traditional practices. They even fought a number of battles against the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to show their disapproval of the Islamic religion. One of the main battles was the Battle of Badr, which brought a major victory to the people of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon them). One might ask: what made Quraysh deny the message of Islam? It cannot be denied that they found that... middle of article......l views, but it ultimately brought them closer to understanding their purpose in worldly life. In Islam, sacrificing something for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) is something immense both in terms of gratitude and reward. When people accepted Islam as the only way of life, culture was no longer a priority in their lives. They would turn first to religion as a source of assistance and comfort, then to culture for familial support. Although Islam faces and continues to face a tremendous amount of discrimination, it all comes down to understanding the fundamental foundations of Islam. If one is knowledgeable about a certain subject, it is easy for him to accept the main message, and the same theory applies to Islam. If people research Islam and understand the underlying message, they will appreciate it and accept it as the religion chosen by Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala).
