It isn't. The statement that is made in the particular sentence is a universal statement that is quite obviously not true (unless you consider the Taj Mahal to be simple and not an outwardly lavish display, which I think many people would disagree with you on that).
The fact is that the Taj Mahal is a tomb. It is a mausoleum for Mumtaz Mahal, the wife of Emperor Shah Jahan, who was a Muslim. It is considered by many people to be one of the most beautiful and most lavish buildings in the world.
The statement in question reads as such:
"Graves markers are simple, because outwardly lavish displays are discouraged in Islam."
Now had it said something like this, "Typically, graves markers are simple, because outwardly lavish displays are discouraged in Islam," then the statement would have been fine.
Implying that all Muslims are universal in their humility is a BIASED statement. I thought Misplaced Pages was against that.
Oh, and don't worry too much about my name. It has nothing to do with religion. I took it from a song.
Cheers,
