i like this video too. i get your point. before,there was no option but now there is. you are not saying that women in the middle east are all free. you are saying that slowly but surely progress is being made.hell, i'm black, so i know my choice to be born free did not happen overnight. so, again, great video.
It doesn't impress me that Muslim women are imitating the way non-Muslim women dress. Why not show some sisters in Niqab and hijab working? Why do we have to imitate them in how they look? Imitation is a form of love. You don't see them copying the way we dress, act or speak. I don't think western ways are superior to Islamic ways. Look what both are based on and you will see what I mean. What is the purpose of the Western style of dress for women?
@R21301 Do you wonder why no western women ever copies muslim clothes undless they convert ti Islam but Muslim women copy western clothes whether Islamic or not?
@R21301 There is no purpose in blue jeans and a leather jacket, it's comfortable and practical there isn't supposed to be a purpose other than to cover your body and keep you warm. You don't have to see everything the west does as evil.
This video unfortunately talks about a very very very very FEW. Do you get my point? you probably can see ALL these free women in this video only!!! You can not make Islmaic women FREE by promoting LIES....
u aint foolin me. arabs both women n men r barbarians n should quit their ignorant neanthetral ways, its 2011 n theyre still so backwards....ive been in mideast n seen it wit my eyes....this vid is a joke!
@TheNubian1985 what did you exactly see and which countries have you been to? This is about Jordanian women (not Arabic women in general), the woman at the end is Queen Rania of Jordan. This video isnt a joke, I lived in Jordan for 8 years and I can assure you all of this is true except for the plumber lol
@TheNubian1985 you are ethnocentric and a racist. Why don't you try and educate yourself before you judge the way others live and their cultures. No one culture changes in the same way. Look at works done by those who actually come from which ever Arab culture your investigating. Ignorance only fuels hate and stupidity.
I am from Turkey an it is very hard to find a honest plumber in here, I am happy that you have female plumbers, I wish there were more women in construction field
@30110330 in my free country where i can go to the beach in shorts and a shirt to cool off, go wherever i want independently, marry whoever i want, not be sexually repressed and NOT be pelted with stones for any of those things, oh yes i'm so jealous.
the video is maybe for the good, but I don't think that all of these jobs are for women?
there's exaggeration in some of them. I mean women have the right to work , but they are supposed to work in jobs don't need much physical work like a plumper, I imagine it would be inappropriate.
This is misleading. What are we are promoting here? Arab women can be Christian, Jewish and muslim. I hope we are not supposed to assume all Arabs are muslims.
@ThingsThatVexMe No, that's not the aim at all. It's simply saying that all women in the Arab world are not oppressed and prevented from excercising their right to work and earn a living. The short film doesn't say anything about the faith of the women represented, it mentions that women in the Arab world do have choices, nothing claiming all women are muslim that happen to be Arab.
Nice Clip! We need more of that to let the west world accept the fact of great progression in Arab World, at the same time West world should learn how to respect and accept Arabs as civilized people without degrading or deforming the neat image by quoting misjudged stereotypes.
I'm an Arab who lived in Jordan for 6 years. The Jordanian women has no will or rights whatsoever even for an eastern woman. Although It is not as bad as what is happening in the Gulf.
Believe it or not, some girls cant even greet male classmates in the university because of their families, which is so sad.
They even would take off or put on the Hijab as their secret boyfriend's please.
@IRAQI6TNT Thats why millions of iraqies came to live in jordan!!!!...you should ask the iraqi women who lives in jordan if they ever lived freely as they lived in iraq or in the gulf
@IRAQI6TNT Yes also in america and across the globe if ur parents are strict there is alot u cant do this has nothing to do with the country it has to do with up bringing. im not arab im not even white but its common sense......
Yes women are allowed to become whomever they want to be, WITH restrictions. Unfortunately there still are very prominent, primitive cultural beliefs / practices that are still practiced today. Word to the wise, arm women with basic rights for freedom of choice, will and freedom to be alive; and work on breaking down the egotistical, self perceived superiority of the Middle Eastern man, who so profoundly believe they are better than women.
This is sooo propaganda, and is lying abt the S. Arabic women, they are not allowed anything other than staying at home, they are not allowed to drive, they are not allowed go out without male escort and that's the truth stop believing this fake video abt womens liberty in S. Arabia
I'm a Saudi women. I'm sponsored by an Oil company to finish my schooling. I don't have my male-guardian with me. I know other 230 Saudi women who are the same. My mom is a teacher. My aunt is a doctor. My friend (who is a woman) is a lawyer.
Keep in mind Saudi is a young country. Women in all places had to fight to get more rights and it didn't happen over one night.
As Arabs, we give a tremendous importance to how others see us. I think we should be like US or Chinese ppl, in the sense that we should only focus on improving ourselves. And be sure, once you proof yourself, others will understand and respect you.
I'm not only from the Arab world. I'm from the Gulf. Im a translator my mom is a teacher my sis is a banker, we all cover our hairs (not faces just hair) and we live a normal free comfortable life. I drive where ever i want when ever i want a play i dance i watch oprah! dont blv your media
@omania100 i dont believe those people he think arabic women are doing anything and we are 201 ,they just like to make fun <thats all otherwise they could go to arabic gulf and see what is there and compare it with all the world ,we got everything ,thats enough then
@omania100 you say you live in the gulf you are lucky but what if you were to live in saudi arabia iran syria etc would you be able to be a free spirit who likes to dance drive and watch oprah or would your life be very different even though you were still a muslim how about more hardcore nations like rural pakistan afghan. under the taliban again your still a muslim in a muslim nation but would your life be very diferent you see what im saying true freedom is lacking in islam espeac. for women
what's next? prostitution will be a celebrated profession for the Arab women just like it is in the "advanced" and "modern" and "free" and "civilized" Netherlands?! well it already started in Afghanistan and Iraq. Queen Rania wears mini skirt and goes to Oprah and declares she prays 5 times a day. lol. tell me another joke. it might work.
I'm from Afghanistan and let me tell you women were wearing mini-skirts in the 1960s there. Plus what does what you wear have to do with anything, its all about your intentions.
I don't understand is why in the arab world, the same ones who had equality between man and women some hundred years ago, now are struggling to be equal again.
I wonder what happened that women lost there rights in the arab world.
@crizl2007 After muhammed died some people turned like they where before he was born! If a war comes in a contry it takes many many years to fix everything and just thing about the children that loose theyr perents and grow up alown realy little knowlige about Islam but there are many resons why some contrys dont devlope.
Yeah i agree with your point that in arab society things are slowly getting better for these women.
But all those educated women etc like pilots and lawyers they come from wealthy familys ,and they have more of an opputtunitie as apposed to the majority of the arab women.This video was a bit biased.
there r a lot of bad comments. any way we are the muslims dont have any hate of any religion on the world but the action of 11th of sept. made you to think that we are terrorists but this is false we love all peopole and those who did this action only mads our prophet mohammed ordered us to love all peopole and make the the peace on who we know or not i hope we all live in a peaceful world .
and i am sorry if my english language not ok because i am still learning.
read it, found it boring, repetitive and full of contradictories.
Only reason you wear it is because it makes you feel special. (status)
Westerners don't wear them anymore because they do not see a status symbol in wearing a rag on your head. It was in the past a method of recognising farmers, merchants, nobility. Another way of discriminating between people. Which you fervently wish to uphold. Headwraps serve no purpose beyond an arrogant religious statement.
Sau MAJESTADE é atualmente uma grande DIALOGADORA o que podera incomodar muitos extremistas ARABES. Podera ser a ponte entre ORIENTE e OCIDENTE. Se assim o entender quem governa as grandes potencias. acredito que alcançará seus objetivos!!!
Atualmente é a melhor e mais solida esperança para as MULHERESE a estabilidade dessa regiao
So, we the arabs have no respect for women and children... so how come it is the west that is riddled with rapes, sexual attacks every second of the day (USA)... horrific children abuses, incest, Fritzels, women are treated nothing more than a hole... like a toilett.... and you know, I feel sorry for your women! They belive that they are free because they can show their pussy to everyone on the planet.... poor airheads.... if you only knew, they gave you the right so they can masturibate better!
@RackJacket Hmmmm interesting choice of words. When we (Arab women) wear the Hijab or not work, or are not allowed to vote we're "oppressed" and we're stupid and have no rights. Once we work and stand on our own feet we're "westernized"
@lolilolipop11 Muslims are not allowed to become like westerners, they hate that. And tell me, how many % of Arab women are working? NOT VERY MANY, MOST OF THEM ARE KEPT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS!!!!
No, we don't have women walking naked. Anyone walking naked would be arrested for public indecency. We have our own standards.
So the more a woman is closed, the higher the standard? Then how about burqa? How about demanding that women cover one eye in public, as one Egyptian cleric suggested,
v muslim women are ordered in islam to keep our bodies covered and keep our virginity for the man whome v marry( the man of our coice, eders cannot force us). we do not beleive in sex without marrige. but we are advised not ordered about the minimum age for marriage. ur girls try to lose virginity as soon as they are 12. is that a decent thing to do. i mean just to find a "male" to fulfil physical needs or to wait and grow up to a suitable age to get married and start a peaceful family life.
The reason why Muslims believe women should be covered is because the prophet Muhammad was a pervert and couldn't keep his hands to himself everytime he saw something "sexy"...
So when it's all covered up then there's no urge to have sex with a women because you can't see any curves...
This is why they say it's appropriate for a man to rape a women if she is not clothed properly.
However the Koran is a religious all-authoritative document. Therefore reform from the 7th century isn't possible
A woman's body is SO precious that Allah wanted whats best for us and i.e hijab, because with it, we are safe and covered and the only man that is allowed to see a woman's body is her husband and her husband only.
Stop posting rubbish that ain't even true... no one's gonna believe you anyway and its not like we're going anywhere :)
Salam alaikum thank you so very much for posting this video a I am a mulimina truck driver and many people dont believe that we are capable of doing these this type of work or any other maybe this video wil help to promote workplace awareness that muslim woman can do what nonmuslim woman can do and even better allhamduillah
What do you think and islam think a bout Transgender?? that since they were born they already like that. It is not and option but something that they can ignore..it is already their destiny That Allah SWT create them like that including me
I can't control my self. It already in me since I was born. I don't know is this a curse or a give from Allah SWT. a couple time i was thingking a bout suicide until to day. I have this feeling as female since I was born Until now it is been already 29 years.
Most people think that women in the arab world should wear hijab and sit in theyre homes doiing nothing buts that not right. The only arab country that has hardworking women is Jordan and im proud! And it certainly doent matter if theyre wearing hijab or not.. thats theyre choice not urs!! Thank you Queen Rania!
um im from iraq and in my opinions i think the best arabic countrys that are following the right path in women rights are iraq and jordan, my mum is a good muslim and she doesnt wear a hijab, you atheists do not even know yet you judge islam, this i think is quite unfair. you atheists do you really think the world would become a better place if everyone was an atheist? i for one do not and do not judge my opinion for i have pondered this particular scenario for quite a long time.
well ur mom still has to wear the hijab its mandatory upon all muslim women lol if she truly fears god she would wear it like almost 99 percent of muslim women
yes it is do u want me to mention the surah that mentions women should cover thier beauty! men as well cover up from knee cap to belly button this is not modernized islam islam is a way of life and not the way u want it to be so.
yes it is mandatory its mentioned in the quran lol even men cover up from knee cap to belly buttopn which is also manditory u cannot say u fear allah and the go out disobeying wat he has in the quran i dont understand wats the big deal for wearing the hijab and covering up women!
my mom started wearing hijab when she was really ready to wear one and now she is not comfortable without a hijab.. My mom told me you are only supposed wear a hijab when you are intention are pure to wear a hijab and it is not to be forced...Because you are not loving your faith, and love cannot based on anger.. its in the quran. i.e why Muhammed (PBUH) always wanted peace with the non-muslims (Please let us stay in peace and u practise your own faith and I practise mine.
congratulations to all my sister s from arab countries,,well done,, keep up on time you are the most beautyfull in the world, lady s god bless all of you ! ! !everything all of you are doing is great !
Nice propaganda...please remember the quran teaches the beating of unsubmissive wives..Queen Rania is a lying mouth piece so Westeners can be duped into believing that Islam is something other then a brutal massive cult!
Just ask all those ex muslims who have to live in hiding because of Islam's teaching of death for apostates!
LOL Albertanator - this video is about ARAB women - not Muslim. Arabs and Islam are not one! My grandmother is Arab, and she is not a Muslim. However, I am a Muslim woman, I have lived and worked in Jordan - as a dentist and teacher - thvideo isn't propaganda. Care to back up is what you say with actual facts, logic, or even your sources of information? No? Didn't think so. You base your claims on ignorance. I strongly doubt if you have ever visited Jordan - once in your life!
and you know it because ? oh yeah because you've hread it in a tv channel right after celebrities info! or pehaps you've read about it on people magazine.
go get some real education about other people's realigions before making such hate coments.
If you think of it that way I would say that Christians are more of a cult-organzation that the muslims are(If you've read our history!).. and just because Queen Rania shows us that Islam isn't all that bad doesn't mean she want's us all to convert to Islam! Respect other religious believers with different opinions and they'll respect you : )
How does anyone of you beat his wife as he beats the stallion camel and then he may embrace (sleep with) her?
That was what the the Prophet (PBUH) said, muslims follow his example. So if he had never resorted to beating his wives, then no-one else should ever have to.
Well ex-muslims have betrayed not only God, but their Prophet and the entire Muslim nation- look at it that way.
I think the point of the video is not about hijabi versus non-hijabi. It's about freedom of choice... Here in the Middle East I have women friends and colleagues who wear the hijab, others who wear no hijab and business pants, and still others who wear the abaya. Arab women are free to choose how they want to dress. In my opinion, all are equal in the eyes of Allah and deserve our respect, as the respect of individuals is at the core of true taqwa Islam. Queen Rania we love you...
The head cover (Hijab) goes to a time before Islam for both men and women in the Arab world due to the high temperature out in the open, and it was practiced by Christians and Muslims and others... it started for an environmental reason and became a traditional habit before it was for religious reasons !! People must really focus on the core meaning of the video rather on the shallow exterior criticism.
why the only Hijabi arab woman in your video is the "stay at home mother"?!
Are Hijabi women smart enough to be architect, CEO, pilot , etc ? or its true that this headscarf covers the mind of the female? would the queen answer me plz?
Wow what an ignorant commen!!! A lot of women who wear the hijab are in the work force in jordan... They weren't gonna have every woman that works in this video... and a lot of women choose not to wear the hijab.. this video is to educate idiots like yourself...
haqona, the police woman was a hijabi too, and the female judge had a Qur'an. In Jordan, the population is predominantly Muslim - and after living/working there, visiting the country and knowing many Jordanians, a lot of Jordanian-Muslim women do not wear hijab (so there are - most likely - more Muslim women in this video than the three I just pointed out).
Well the effort is appreciated, but the fact that most women in the Middle-East were the Islamic head scarf , and most of these women in the video have all these jobs and aren't wearing a hijab , is a little discouraging for the women that do want to a hijab and pursue a career. Nice try ..
Jordan... why do they have to be in the u.s to be working? Obviously you've never been to the middle east and watch too much fox news... turn off your tv and read for a change...
Why on earth did you assume that this was in America? Because you think only American women have rights and Arab women have no rights at all? I'm a Saudi girl and (insha Allah) one day I'll be like those great women, or even better! Queen Rania is a great example of great Arab women, she fought for women and children rights, she fought for peace and she is one of the best queens in this world. Please don't be ignorant and believe what is said on the media! Women and men are equal in Islam.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it was filmed in Jordan, and yes... they're all Jordanian women working in Jordan. I know you're a little sad of the fact that women have rights too, but hey, look at the bright side. You're not ignorant anymore!
Arab women need a life this is proof that they can be on the same level as men instead of being supressed they are capable of controlling their own lives and dont need controlling men around them they know the limits so whats the big deal to allow them some freedom!!!!
these are jordanian women. ppl think all arabs are like the saudi wahhabis but thats not true not ever arab is afraid of women rights like wahhabi saudis
It has been five, long years since my last visit to Jordan. I will see you next summer inshallah, my beautiful country.

Imitation is a form of love. You don't see them copying the way we dress, act or speak. I don't think western ways are superior to Islamic ways.

@omania100 you say you live in the gulf you are lucky but what if you were to live in saudi arabia iran syria etc would you be able to be a free spirit who likes to dance drive and watch oprah or would your life be very different even though you were still a muslim how about more hardcore nations like rural pakistan afghan. under the taliban again your still a muslim in a muslim nation but would your life be very diferent you see what im saying true freedom is lacking in islam espeac. for women

Yeah i agree with your point that in arab society things are slowly getting better for these women.
But all those educated women etc like pilots and lawyers they come from wealthy familys ,and they have more of an opputtunitie as apposed to the majority of the arab women.This video was a bit biased.

read it, found it boring, repetitive and full of contradictories.
Only reason you wear it is because it makes you feel special. (status)
Westerners don't wear them anymore because they do not see a status symbol in wearing a rag on your head. It was in the past a method of recognising farmers, merchants, nobility. Another way of discriminating between people. Which you fervently wish to uphold. Headwraps serve no purpose beyond an arrogant religious statement.

No, we don't have women walking naked. Anyone walking naked would be arrested for public indecency. We have our own standards.
So the more a woman is closed, the higher the standard? Then how about burqa? How about demanding that women cover one eye in public, as one Egyptian cleric suggested,
Isn't something rotten about this "standard"?

v muslim women are ordered in islam to keep our bodies covered and keep our virginity for the man whome v marry( the man of our coice, eders cannot force us). we do not beleive in sex without marrige. but we are advised not ordered about the minimum age for marriage. ur girls try to lose virginity as soon as they are 12. is that a decent thing to do. i mean just to find a "male" to fulfil physical needs or to wait and grow up to a suitable age to get married and start a peaceful family life.
fwd1976 2 years ago 3
The reason why Muslims believe women should be covered is because the prophet Muhammad was a pervert and couldn't keep his hands to himself everytime he saw something "sexy"...
So when it's all covered up then there's no urge to have sex with a women because you can't see any curves...
This is why they say it's appropriate for a man to rape a women if she is not clothed properly.
However the Koran is a religious all-authoritative document. Therefore reform from the 7th century isn't possible
dadecountyhustler305 2 years ago
A woman's body is SO precious that Allah wanted whats best for us and i.e hijab, because with it, we are safe and covered and the only man that is allowed to see a woman's body is her husband and her husband only.

my mom started wearing hijab when she was really ready to wear one and now she is not comfortable without a hijab.. My mom told me you are only supposed wear a hijab when you are intention are pure to wear a hijab and it is not to be forced...Because you are not loving your faith, and love cannot based on anger.. its in the quran. i.e why Muhammed (PBUH) always wanted peace with the non-muslims (Please let us stay in peace and u practise your own faith and I practise mine.

Respect other religious believers with different opinions and they'll respect you : )

How does anyone of you beat his wife as he beats the stallion camel and then he may embrace (sleep with) her?
That was what the the Prophet (PBUH) said, muslims follow his example. So if he had never resorted to beating his wives, then no-one else should ever have to.
Well ex-muslims have betrayed not only God, but their Prophet and the entire Muslim nation- look at it that way.
shumixox 2 years ago
I think the point of the video is not about hijabi versus non-hijabi. It's about freedom of choice... Here in the Middle East I have women friends and colleagues who wear the hijab, others who wear no hijab and business pants, and still others who wear the abaya. Arab women are free to choose how they want to dress. In my opinion, all are equal in the eyes of Allah and deserve our respect, as the respect of individuals is at the core of true taqwa Islam. Queen Rania we love you...

The head cover (Hijab) goes to a time before Islam for both men and women in the Arab world due to the high temperature out in the open, and it was practiced by Christians and Muslims and others... it started for an environmental reason and became a traditional habit before it was for religious reasons !! People must really focus on the core meaning of the video rather on the shallow exterior criticism.

Jordan is a shining example of rapid development in the Arab world.
If our industries, banks, medical, commerce and social systems are controlled by men only, a disastrous outcome is the only result.
It takes TWO types of human beings to fast pace social and industrial reform:
Men AND women.
May Rania continue with her selfless crusade!

jordanianmetalhead66 2 years ago
haqona, the police woman was a hijabi too, and the female judge had a Qur'an. In Jordan, the population is predominantly Muslim - and after living/working there, visiting the country and knowing many Jordanians, a lot of Jordanian-Muslim women do not wear hijab (so there are - most likely - more Muslim women in this video than the three I just pointed out).

Well the effort is appreciated, but the fact that most women in the Middle-East were the Islamic head scarf , and most of these women in the video have all these jobs and aren't wearing a hijab , is a little discouraging for the women that do want to a hijab and pursue a career. Nice try ..
