Years ago, I asked my father why he stopped going to the nearby mosque. He said there were people inside the mosque who were questioning his faith and he believes that his faith should not be questioned by a stranger. That was the first alarm I witnessed, 15 years ago. A year later, I kept hearing religious lectures through radio and television of each and every house, followed by a radical transformation of almost everyone rushing to follow their instructions regardless of whether it made sense to them or not.
