No, it has eradicated every single culture it has conquered.
Give evidence. Prove it.
It is not diverse.
Like I said, you're speaking from ignorance. However, without going into 1000 years of cultural development, if the Islamic world isn't diverse, why does sectarianism exist at all? Why did the entire Islamic world unite like Japan or China?
But in every important aspect of cultural life, Iran is like Saudi Arabia.
TIL "Iran is just like Saudi Arabia in every way!"
First off:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_IranSecond, Iran is a theocratic republic while Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy. Iran has a completely different history from Saudi Arabia, different architecture (which isn't just "sand dunes durr" like you think it is, no Islamic country has sand dunes as a form of architecture ignorant idiot), different art, different philosophy, etc.
You just don't know anything about Iranian culture. You couldn't even name me a famous Persian miniature painter or an Iranian food and if you did, you would be contradicting yourself because then Iran wouldn't be like Saudi Arabia in every single way.
No, because India is still majority Hindu and only a small minority Muslim.
While I was referring to India as a region, in India the modern country Islam is the second largest religion in India habibi which is saying something given how a large portion of the world's population lives in India. In India the region which consists of Pakistan plus all other South Eastern countries, Islam makes up the majority.
No; where Islam dominates, all other culture is eradicated, such as in North Africa and most of the Middle East. Sub-Saharan Africa still only has a small Muslim minority.
That's because you don't know anything about North Africa or the Middle East. You think it's all "sand dunes, turbans, and bombs" like a fucking five year old who watched the Lawrence of Arabia once and thinks he's an expert on Islam. No, not even that, you're some five year old that read that shitty 1950s Lawrence of Arabia comic that took place in a desert that looks like Arizona and had all the Muslims be evil zombie looking guys and then came off of that thinking you know everything about Islam.
North Africa has such a fundamentally different dialect from most other Arabic dialects that it's pretty much it's own language. Most of the population in North Africa are Arabo-Berbers and have their own art, philosophy, architecture, etc. which shares a lot with Spain in many situations given how North Africans colonized Spain during the Caliphate.
Just read this wikipedia article:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_North_AfricaAlso, you're statement about Sub-Saharan Africa is false when you consider that:
http://www.mappery.com/maps/Islam-in-Af ... mthumb.jpgIslam is the majority religion for most of Sub-Saharan Africa and it was even more widespread until Christianity came along and killed everyone.
submission to Allah's will
You don't submit to Allah when you do this. You only admit that Allah is the only god thus affirming monotheism. This is a big thing in Islam which is against polytheism.
submission to Allah's will and acceptance of Mohammed as his definitive and final prophet and spokesman;
Tell what Muslims call that.
saying five prayers a day
You don't say five prayers a day.
Wrong
Who was Zaid ibn Haritha's wife? What is the Majils-ash-Shura? What was Muhammad's profession prior to Islam? Who is the name of the slave Muhammed freed and then later converted to Islam? Why did the Ridda Wars start? How did Shi'ism start from the beginning? What is the name of the rivals of Muhammad who also claimed to be prophets? At what time period were depictions of Muhammed prominent during the Islamic world?
If you know Islamic history you should know the answers to these questions.
Wrong.
Says the man who thinks that there is no difference culturally between a Persian and an Arabian "because Islam". Apparently you aren't speaking from ignorance despite me being an Iranian and well aware of the cultural differences between Iranians and Saudi fucking Arabians. Saudi Arabians don't even have a culture and that's not because of Islam but because it is an artificial state created by the British to fight for it's interests.
