Salam to everyone,
It is very hard to understand how different people interpret religion and other things the way is more suitable for their own interest. Follow traditions without questioning or even understanding the purpose of such deeds in that period of time. Thanks to some we have the facility if u might call it like that of being able to fly distances of kilometers in just question of minutes, cover miles in just few second with a phone call or video call, being able to do calculations in seconds which were not able in those periods of time, being able to use drones and kill someone in Pakistan sitting down in USA. That proof to us that change in every sense is unavoidable for the better of humans. It seems that our primitive thinking ties us down and doesn't let our brain go beyond the boundaries created by us. I don't think that anybody will sit down and ask why Qurbani was done the purpose behind it. Why Prophet Ibrahim (S.A.W) was asked to sacrifice his own flesh and blood? Being Muslim i believe that we have the right to ask question to scholar and our descendents, but it is forbidden to ask questions. Questions may lead to disbelieve which will weaken ur faith...faith is blind. How can we separate faith and religion from reasoning. I think it is impossible to do since religions has nothing to do with reasoning. How can be explain that for centuries Qurbani Eid is being celebrating the same way, or a more palpable eyewitness example Moharam being celebrated for at least 50 years plus or minus in our house in the same manner without any changes whatsoever. I am sure that ideas must be going through the minds of people who r involved in these activities but the fear of implementing something new, or the fact of not being accepted by the community, or may be that it goes against the faith keeps the idea as it is deep down our thoughts. Traditions r followed but changes must followed according to time place, without that development and education will not be possible. Why we mourn our Imam? Why we celebrate Eid? What is the message behind it?......Uhhh! don't worry my faith is intact, i am just curious about any opinions in this matter....
Love,
