Whats the difference between Islamic state and a Muslim country??
PS: Knightdumber~aka knightrider, dont answer.. Indonesia isnt a Muslim country despite having Islam as its predominant religion.. Islamic state (yes, it's STATE, all you Americans out there!!!) is a land ruled by Islamic laws exclusively.
Muslim country is a country mainly inhabited by Muslims who are either too weak or too stupid to establish a proper Islamic government.
Currently, there is no Islamic state, if we exclude UIC-held areas of Somalia, but there are many Muslim countries.
So, Malaysia is a Muslim country, but not an Islamic country or state. It's pretty much the same with Indonesia.
