One on One - Muna AbuSulayman - 01 Aug 08 - Part 2

[caitlinisreggaegirl]

I always hear Muna Abu Sulayman talking about the family staying together and it turns out she has an ex-husband, what a hypocrite

[FATKATKY]

Great interview! Thanks!

[sarmadjadoon]

Shaking hands with opposite sex is haram in Islam......Muna should fear hellfire and the judgement day

[SavesTheDay777]

mashalah i love that women.. she is so smart and achieved so much...

[AdemSemir]

Did he shake her hand with his left hand

[PoloGordon]

Those islamic states that are suffering need to wake up, change doesn't even have to be drastic it could evolve like all things do. And with so many angry muslims blaming western imperialist thought and actions I fear you will continue to slip further behind as you fail to see the bigger picture

[PoloGordon]

Remember that what you see as western culture has not always been as such. Europe and america used to be a very backward place indeed, executions were more common than those in sharia law states today and women would often be called witches and killed for saying or thinking progressively. All of this changed through a number of free thinking movements and revolutions and evidently things are much better now in the west as we can all see

[PoloGordon]

So modernity seems to be the global ideal and still some muslim states cannot get to grips with this and continue to think of everything as an attack on their religion, you guys should look at turkey and indonesia as progressive role models

[PoloGordon]

Western civilisation is a dated definition and arguably wrong. It is NOT specifically western where you get that multi sensory air of freedom. To start with, Japan, S.Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, S.Africa and China in parts all live identical lives to those in N.America and Europe, and so rapidly are Thailand and Indonesia *note, another muslim country. They all live this lifestyle and they are not the usual western US and European powers

[PoloGordon]

In Korea, S.Africa, Argentina, & Turkey *note, a muslim country, i felt the same freedom I feel here in the west. Just traveling, going about daily business, letting live, enjoying all the fun that any middle class global citizen could have in life, even in China too. Common in adaptive thinking societies. But in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Pakistan & Iran the inability to get to grips with modernity is stark. Muslims need to release the chip on their shoulder, start looking at things a little clearer

[heyysmile]

Muna u have always been and will remain an inspiration to us Saudi women :)

[sirasy]

cool woman!

[PoloGordon]

This is the same lady who promotes oppressing women through cultural dress codes. Shame on you Muna

[mmsas1]

@PoloGordon You really think you're smart guy?! You said nothing new, nothing attractive and nothing respectful. You are just an other one of the foolish beasts of the west who don't have respect even for themselves as human beings, just thinking of themselves as animals catering only for and driven exclusively by their primitive instincts, exactly like prehistoric humans. I would've respected if you had something better to offer, but dirt is what one would expect to find in a cesspit.

[PoloGordon]

@mmsas1 I am not pro west, I am pro human development and I criticise anything that seems to go against this okay.

[PoloGordon]

Slowly but slowly women have been getting treated like first class citizens now, just like blacks have been slowly but slowly being treated as humans now in the UK, France, Holland, Australia, USA, Canada (not sure if Spain, Italy and the rest of Europe thinks so, but anyway things will CHANGE)

If there is one thing you dogmatic followers of ignorance need to grasp is that the world and the universe is flux, so get with the f@@king programme CHANGE

[PoloGordon]

Thank GOD, yes GOD the real natural GOD (which has long been worshipped before power got involved) that we the law makers the dynamic modern world are above that.The Islamic culture is oppressive to women. Wake the fuck up you brainwashed zombies. Christianity is oppressive too. In fact, women have been oppressed in almost EVERY culture

[PoloGordon]

Instead we use our GOD GIVEN REASON to enforce on matters of morality and ethics. To think that some people in this world still go by such religious oppressive spit! – shame on you. All your religions were driven by power hungry mob bosses, some of the most oppressive and vile people to ever tread the earth, conniving rampaging warlords they were

[PoloGordon]

And it is also anti-social, you don’t need a Phd in Psychology to understand that the FACE is vital in social interaction, so why the f@@k do you cover it up when out in society! And also how do you expect to work among others, so your also economically limited. Hijab is fine of course because it is practical and perfectly REASONable

[PoloGordon]

This law is for everyone not jut Muslims. Muslims stop trying to make yourself feel special. You Muslims juuuuuuuuuuuust don’t get it do you? What with your biased Islamic outlook, you just cannot see the other point of view

[PoloGordon]

I walk into a bank with my motorcycle helmet placed on top of my head, I am breaking the law. Yet someone walks in covering themselves in a piece of cloth its fine! WTF!! No wonder we have so many robberies in Europe with people in burqas robbing banks. Two in France just recently and one in Wembley in London, this is a MAJOR security threat right now

[bintalnoor]

akhan62. thanks for sharing!!!

[hamdanfalcon]

Why did they shake the left hands?.

[nonnah81]

No, she's not the same lady.

[akhan62]

she is the same lady who went over to a us media channel saying that she didnt have any rights in her country if iam not mistaken she went uncovered

[amirzubairmughal]

all most all the comments posed badly and going aginst true,,,islam allow to womens work,,but dont alowed nakedness,,only,,she is perfect example of muslim women and i think she is talking honestly,,,she is in hijab it does not mean that muslims forced on her,,but its Allah all migh order to muslims,,and she loves Allah that y she is wearing,,,

[alamri22]

I honor you Mona, you're such a great Saudi woman. We all support you, cuz you're a successful woman, a great mother and you know it, and a impressive image to Saudi women

[naaz4eva]

shez awesome.......inspiration 4 womenz of saudi arabia..

[Firewall2153]

Environmentalism?

Why don't we stops the double standardism! Jeddah is drowning in the sewage and we act as exaptriots for saving the environment in a cheap attempt to impress the West.

Let alone how did we destroyed the Islamic heritage, including the house where Muhammed (PBUH) lived.

[alamri22]

Jeddah is drowing cuz of ppl coming from neighboring country and make their effort to get the best out of Saudi Arabia regardless of what the consequences are. But we're after them do not worry, we gonna get 'em and they're gonna be kicked out soon.. u know what im talking about buddy!

[akhan62]

she was shaking hands thats haram u r not suppose to touch non mahram iam sure riz had a hard on

[deely200]

you are stupid .

[ultimatedilwala]

deely was wrong... you are really stupid

[akhan62]

so r u

[bintalnoor]

mashallah!!!! great example for arab women!!!!

[akhan62]

come on look at her she is showing her hairs, has make up and is wearing a fashionable hijab and clothes which is not allowed as fashionable clothes are not to worn in front of non mahram people liek her corrupt the minds of muslim women

[liquiduser]

i think riz khan wanted to propose.....:)

[pReci0usDioMond]

this is not good, she didnt asked permission from her husband

[GoldenCrecent]

Masha Allah! She is a very good example of muslim women.

[akhan62]

no she is not women like her make women go out mingle with the opposite sex shake hands with them u r a grown up everyone knows in the media and entertainment and movie and songs and music industry everyone sleeps araound that is what u want for muslim women

[alamri22]

dude, this is really awkward, EVERYONE SLEEPS AROUND!!! what the hell was that? are you accusing ppl of sleeping with strangers? how could you say that about another muslim? you know this is not right, and if you're a real muslim you would wish her luck instead, cuz you know she's not that kind of women. Stop accusing people, THAT is haram!

[QueenBN1B]

No everyone does not sleep around, you cant say that ? your not god .

[aljomah]

this interveiw is a message to the western Society to change thier point view of the saudi women, keep up the good work

[PoloGordon]

@aljomah This is a fundamental fallacy, the reason why you all love her is because she is WESTERN, that. Born & educated in the WEST, experiences in the modern liberal & free world has helped shape her cool, compassionate and charismatic persona. If she was raised entirely in a conservative culture back home she would be a completely different person, the type of person western society has a view of. Muna is NOT your average Saudi woman; she is very privileged and very free, unlike the majority

[TANTHEMAN01]

cool. nice muslimah lady.

[Powerofthadolla]

rare. :(

good show

[zozogigi]

great saudi lady
