    You can still be a muslim, and have a scientific/logical approach to your religion.  Its just more likely (according to stats here anyway) that you will be more likely to apostacise with this profile more than any others.
    You are a product of an INTJ mother after all Tongue


    I'm an INTJ and I was very religious before leaving Islam yes

    It's the J, J's have a tendency to be attracted to a more decided way of thinking.  This is black, this is white, this is order, this is a script with no room for doubt sort of thing.

    P types on the other hand are more open to questioning since they are indecisive by nature, so this is black and this is white sort of thinking, is usually more....but what about this grey area?

    That's not to say the INTJ is prone to be religious, because they are N types they are more prone to question in the end because no matter how decisive they are, the N is about ideas and theories which opens them up to questioning way more than SJ types.

    The most religious type is the SJ, followed by other types that incorporate S.

    I was as well.

    Looking at the personality types... INTJs seek a moral code and the *truth*.
    But we also apply a very rigorous 'does it work/is it true' to our moral code.

    So I had very little trouble getting rid of my Islam, once I discovered the *truth* behind it.

    It would be a very weird stereotype, but I think INTJs are likely to be either religious or irreligious/atheist.
    If they believe Islam to be true... they'd really try to follow it properly or would feel very conflicted if they didn't.
    But once they discover they don't believe it to true, they would feel conflicted if they didn't leave it.

    I'm the same way with my political beliefs or anything really.

    It's weird... because even before I knew about these personality types, I had some of the best religious conversations with actual real religious people.
    Rather than being the 'enemy' of logic... I think they are more likely to listen to reason than other people who just claim Islam as an identity or believe out of tradition.

    I try to distinguish between INTJ religious people and others.  It's tough, but I'm pretty sure you could convince an INTJ religious person to drop their faith if you approached it in a calm rational logical manner.  Not by hate or silly arguments.

    Wow I can see myself in these words. And I can see it is about the J!

    Islam was always perfect to me, and whenever I was exposed to something confusing in it I searched for an explanation in order to keep that feeling of perfection stable in me, and thus I became very religious and expanded my knowledge of Islam. My mum still asks me to recite the quran on her grandchildren when they're not feeling well. Of course she doesn't know I'm atheist now.

    Before leaving Islam I really disliked the fact that some Muslim girls leave some of their hair uncovered and would take off their hijab and adjust it while men are looking. It was like hypocrisy to me! I should've given them lessons on how to cover their hair like a real Muslimah lol

    Yes it was like black and white. I find this true even in my way of learning another language. I care too much about grammar which is why I keep monitoring my language in such a way that can be very tiring Smiley

    So I broke down and took the test a few weeks ago.. INFJ. ENFJ actually...
    Your Type is
    ENFJ
    Extraverted 11
    Intuitive 38
    Feeling 38
    Judging 33

    What does that mean? (I read the sites out there talking about it but I want to know from the CEMB's own personality experts what the heck that means, especially what the heck kind of career would suit me (I have some ideas but just curious about this now)).

    I find it hard to see you as an ENFJ because of my experience with an ENFJ...........but the more I think about it the more I think he was misdiagnosed and was actually and ENFP since everything about him screams ENFP, including that shitty feeling it leaves you with afterwards.  Grin

    But if I compare you to an ENFJ I knew on another forum, then yeah I can see it.  She was one hell of a woman, hard working, sympathetic without sugar coating everything the way i might, very smart and I seriously admired her.  Unfortunately ENFJ's got a bad rep over on the mbti forum I used to frequent so she was always having to defend her own mind as people judged her based on their own negative real world experiences, but for myself I saw her as somebody worth admiring.

    I also know another ENFJ in the real world who I've always liked too, my friend loathes her because they had an argument and ENFJ's don't forgive that easily, so even though my friend tried to mend bridges the damage was already done and has lasted 2 years between them on anymosity that is only lessened by each of them wanting to please me by pretending to get along for my sake.

    You know some websites place ENFJ as my best choice for a partner............Wink  (don't tell your partner I winked at you though, she might hit me or something Tongue )

    Other than that though, I don't know that many ENFJ's, my friends are usually ExFP's so it's hard for me to say too much since my experience is limited to just the ones I can think of, so other than the ones I know being people I admire for many reasons, usually the ability to be as soft as me without letting people ride roughshod over them, that's my thoughts. 

    Did you do a test with percentages?  usually there are a fair few variations based on how much of an E, N F or J you are.  ergo I'm INFP, but my I fluctuates all the time, but my other letters are always high.

    Snap! My 'I' often bobs up to 'E' on occasion, although the other traits are all high scoring (particularly 'N', which is most pronounced). I wonder how common our type is, given that you're the only other INFP I know.

    Online I've found we are pretty common Grin  this world suits the N and the I.

    So any type with IN is going to be onlin quite a bit and not for fb really, there will be a forum or niche interest that exists as a world for them.

    In real life on the other hand I've yet to meet one INFP.  I think maybe my best friend from teenagehood might be one, we were so similar in so many ways and we used to talk for hours and hours about all kinds of bullshit in a way that isn't the same as with other friends, but I dunno how right I am about that, she had some S type qualities that make me question that.

    I think we are only a small percentage of the world, can't remember, depends what site you read, but it's anywhere from 1-4% quoted for us, but considering how rare it is for me to meet my own type in the real world, I'd say it's kind of accurate.

    Pretty much the same, until at least the age of 21 I didn't drink or have sex before marriage due to my religious leaning. I totally abhorred those who did drink, I remember when I was young and I walked into the front room and I caught my dad watching porn on the TV, that really affected and broke my heart. When I was younger I'd always lay in bed thinking about hell, and I used to think some members of my family will end up in hell I need to help them. There used to be a man who lived across the street he was a Muslim but always used to drink, and I felt really sorry for him I kept asking myself: "Why does he want to go to hell? who is going to save him?" then when I grow older I started to think about others beliefs, who incredibly stupid I find them, and I slowly started the apply the same logic to my own beliefs. So after I left Islam, I really became a moral nihilist. I didn't have that terrible affliction of thinking that someone who is morally "bad" is going to go to hell. As a matter of fact I don't believe in ideas like good and evil. I think these are just social constructs which really, deeply don't have any real application.

    I so still have my bad days, when I think, really there wasn't anything bad in Islam, I was just opposed to the idea of it being enforced. I am quite happy to use Islam to structure my own life, for a male Islam is a great tool, as a selfish human being I don't mind using it to my own advantage, as-long as I can ethically justify it to myself.

    Tried the test again now, thought since I started socialising more, and all the changes that has happened in my life fairly recently that I might have a different type now.

    Result:

    You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (44%)

    I call bullshit on the parts where they suggest careers.  Everyone's personality is too complex for a simple quiz like that to suggest a career for anyone.

    For introverts they will typically suggest science and arts careers. And For extroverts they will suggest something in Business.

    I think that plays on stereo types. Even though I'm 56% introvert, I enjoy analyzing accounting cases and creating presentations and presenting my findings. ( yes I am a bit nervous while doing a presentation but I prefer to go out of my comfort zone in order to learn new skills) 

    I like reading science books but in high school found out that experiments were just not my forte or interest.
