  • Iran has a great tradition in taekwondo . Go get your dream and let nothing stand in your way ... what a story this is and what a journey it must have been . I hope all your dreams come true . True warrior of mind and spirit . PURE RESPECT

  • "The sending of female Iranian athletes abroad is sin according to the Koran... as prostitution and the beginning of fornication."

    Man, that's a load of bull. That preacher is just mad he isn't going.

    Major Props to Sara. She's a fighter and will keep going regardless of what her male counter parts think. And this statement is coming from a man.

  • "Allah blesses everyone in different ways... You'll appreciate more His blessings after you lose it." From the Khatib, IIUM Masjid.

  • sorry, if i may inquire....why is it that Prophet Muhammad is the one asked to 'bless the well-being of our appreciated athletes"? in my understanding, ALLAH SWT is the ONLY ONE WHO BLESSES, PROTECTS AND BESTOWS HONOUR. Prophet Muhammad saw is ALLAH'S MOST BELOVED PROPHET AND MESSENGER.
