When Urfi Javed Said She Doesn't Believe in Islam

In an old interview with India Today in 2021, Urfi Javed spoke about her religious beliefs and her marriage plans. Growing up, she was raised in a conservative Muslim family and has three sisters named Urusa, Asfi, and Dolly Javed. Urfi Javed was born in 1997 to parents Ifru Javed and Zakiya Sultana and has always been open about her family background. She once shared that her bold fashion choices are often disapproved of by society because of her religion and the fact that she does not have a godfather in the industry. Javed also shared her reasons for not believing in Islam.

“I am a Muslim girl. Most of the hate comments I receive are from Muslim people. They say that I am tarnishing the image of Islam. They hate me because Muslim men want their women to behave in a certain way,” she said. Javed further explained that the desire to control women within the community is the reason she does not believe in Islam.

She continued, “The reason they troll me is because I don't behave the way they expect me to, according to their religion.”
