Traditionally Islam prohibited the depiction of any living forms (Allah’s copyright or something like that), which is why traditional Islamic art and architecture lean so heavily into geometric patterns.
I can confirm. I’m also a triangle and all triangles know each other obviously. He’s the wrong triangle race tho, but it’s fine, we all have 180 degrees and shouldn’t fight over some getting their order of placement wrong
Source? I’m a middle aged Muslim and this is definitely the first time I’ve heard for this. Islam only prohibits religious iconography due to the whole idolatry thing. But no hard rules exist in the Quran. Also Hadith is quite debatable compared to Quranic verse.

Not to be hyperbolic, but that’s an unfair stereotype, we don’t all have exactly the same inner angles.
