Ancestry doesnt matter.
Just something a person who pretends to have once been Muslim keeps going on about - ancestry.
His view is that since Islam was revealed in Arabia, people elsewhere should not believe it.
He also mentions how many Muslim personalities from the past were not Pakistani (lets pretend to forget that even my gran is older than pakistan... and that we are not in Pakistan).
But what he fails to realise (mainly because he is a full on retard) is that what matters is what we do, not what others do or what others have done in the past.
I will be accountable for my actions and my actions alone.
In the same way, when it comes to heritage, while you can draw links to many places in many ways, what matters is what you learn from it.
You learn from the good, leave the bad and you try to be good people.
That is what good - not the backwards minded and cultural views of some which say that their ancestors did something wrong, so they must also do that same thing.
In Islam sin does not pass from one person to another.

I said I was a munafiq
Whan I saw this in Surah al Baqarah I came back to Islam
This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah -Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them,
Indeed, those who disbelieve - it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.
Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment
