"If you do not hear the laughter and voices of children from the back rows of the mosque while men are in prayer,worry about the future of your generation"
- Sultan Mehmed II
Whereas in BD,elders get mad at the few children who actually come to the mosque over the smallest things

This G25 PCA shows Bengali Muslim samples from Sylhet, SE, North, NW and Central Bangladesh clustering closely, reflecting a shared Bengali genetic continuum. Some Sylheti Muslim samples shift slightly towards West Bengal Brahmins but remain within the wider Bengali cluster.
Critics often ask: if God needs nothing, why does He command us to worship Him? What does He gain from our prayers and fasting? The question rests on three hidden assumptions.
Once they are examined, the real question becomes clearer: why do we need to worship?🧵

In summary:
God's nature forbids any purposeless act (44:38-39), and He is free of all need (14:8). To picture Him as needy is a residue of ancient mythology. He loves to be worshipped for the good we attain through it.
All praise is due to Allah, Lord of all the worlds.

1/ Many hujurs running mosques and madrasas in BD have little real Islamic education.
Some have only passed a basic level. Some are hafiz with good qirat but no basic knowledge of Islam. Imagine universities run by people who never even graduated. None will ever accept that.
12/ Why does it matter?
- Parents shouldn't have to gamble with their children's religious education, and some institutions exist only to make money. When unqualified voices speak for religion, the respect real scholars deserve suffers too.
