The sentiment is great. Unfortunately the Muslim stereotyping hits a lot different in 2023 than it did in 2012.
What about this is stereotyping in a negative or hurtful way? I am genuinely asking for the purposes of learning btw, not concern trolling or sea lioning.
Probably the "Muslims who die get 17 virgins" thing.
Theyre called "hoor al-ayn" and descriptions of them are in the primary islamic religious literature (in both the quran and hadith). Googling that will bring up plenty (youtube comments under videos on it especially are something else)
Here's some relevant passages:
Indeed, We have produced the women of Paradise in a [new] creation. And made them virgins, Devoted [to their husbands] and of equal age. (56:35-37, being chapter:verse)
Fair ones reserved in pavilions - (55:72)
Indeed, for the righteous is attainment - Gardens and grapevines And full-breasted [companions] of equal age (78:32-33)
Not sure about the specific number (the trope is 72, not 17) but the comic is accurate.
17 virgins
That can't last enternety.
The catch is you don't have libido anymore because, duh, you're in heaven and has no need to procreate, so god disabled that feature. Now you have 17 forever-virgin room mates. I mean, the verses didn't mention that you get to have sex with the virgins, right?
