No Women No Play
Muslims for Progressive Values statement

My name is Ani Zonneveld and I am the co-founder and Chair of Muslims for Progressive Values.

One of the tenets of Islam is to want for our brothers and sisters what we want for ourselves. In that spirit, we take issue of Saudi Arabia's practice of discriminating against its women's athletes.

We call on the President of the International Olympic Committee Mr. Jacques Rogge, to stay true to the precepts of the IOC Charter by barring Saudi Arabia from the Olympic Games until it ends its practice of prohibiting Saudi women from competing.

No Women, no play!
