Cultural Muslim 

Someone who loosely adopts the practices of Islam without strictly adhering by them, a phenomenon often seen within second-generation muslims growing up in Western societies. These types tend to view Islamic practices as personal choices rather than a religious obligation.

Fatima holds strong liberal values and chooses to dress freely despite her religious upbringing. However, she still observes the 5 daily prayers, making her a cultural muslim.
