Nancy Ajram

There are a few names in the world of music that we associate with being attacked by Islamic groups for being seductive and for dressing in a sexual manner in order to ‘make it’ in the industry and Nancy Ajram has always been one of those names. However, in a surprising gesture an online Islamic group which is known for fighting such singers called ‘Hamasana’ is now defending Nancy Ajram claiming that the ‘random’ mannerism of attacks on her is unfair.

The group claims that she dresses appropriately when she appears on TV and that she sings for children in an angelic manner whilst Haifa Wehbe is always showing too much flesh and even when she sang for kids, an obvious reference to the infamous ‘Wawa’, she seemed to be attempting to seduce children!

It’s interesting that this group has decided to differentiate between the worst and the ‘not so bad’ and I’m sure Nancy will be thrilled with their backing!

First of all...I hear that Nancy Ajram is a Muslim...not sure but Nancy needs to confirm wether she is a Christian or a Muslim

Second of all...Cool you just basically disrespected Islam and all the middle eastern women who wear hijab...its religion and at least give it some respect

Third of all...I LOVE the way Nancy Ajram dresses...all the girls of the middle east love Nancy Ajram not just because of her songs but also because the way she looks and dresses

Ladies and gentlemen the hijab was invented by man thousands of years ago to keep women in a subservient position to man. All three monotheistic faiths have the hijab..But in Judaism and Christianity it is only the very religious who wear their respective veils. Unfortunately Arab Muslims started to wear the hijab because of Syrian Christian influence when the Muslims and the mohammden army invaded Syria in 634 AD. For the record the first Muslim community in mecca DID NOT WEAR the veil..Aisha never wore the veil! So I apologize to the Muslims for this influence..which eventually made muslim women wear the veil…
I can tell you that the veil has NOTHING to do with Islam. The Qu’ran says that women have to be modest…nowhere in the Qur’an does it specifically say “women have to wear the veil”..Those who say that the veil is required for muslim women are very ignorant of their own religion…
Having said all of this I agree with Cool, that the veil is disgusting ....the veil is about control and keeping women acquiescent to man. If the veil is about hiding your beauty and keeping it only for your spouse ..then how come Muslim men aren’t veiled? Women could be attracted to men too!!! I know that the latter thought is a hard pill to swallow for Muslim men.

14 June, 5:24AM

to cool and all those rude people that are offiending islam. Our religon just tells us to wear it just like chrisitans have to belive in the croos or go to church. I can see you having a diffrent opinion about it but you can say it in more mature an not in in a rude crude way.

14 June, 5:30AM

george how about u dont disrespect ok
if you dont not know why we wear the hijab, its because you dont know our religion duhh!
men dont wear it because you dont see women running after muslim men and raping them because there attractive. but the opposite may happen, an attractive muslim girl will attractive all sort of men not just muslims, and she can be in harm if she shows too much.
our religion says this. not everything in our religion has to be explained to christians and non-muslims. so for people saying its a disgrace and disgusting isnt going to stop us muslim girls from wearing it.
hijab really means protection, protection from the bad and harum and everything is only to be revealed to husbands and family.

Nancy is christian i see some photo of her in front a Church in occasion of 5id echa5ayné but NANCY refuse to admit that in front of her public maybe because she think she will lose some of her fans because a religion!Nancy's Mather is remonda aoun she's Maronite and I'm sure about the photo so Nancy is christian for sure!and i hate her attitude to not clarify that Elissa is christian and she's proud Haifa is chi5a and she's proud so why Nancy make all this suspense and mystery about her christianity!maybe she feel shame or what?!

The hijab does not make you look old and ugly. It is your stinking personality when you refuse to respect others' culture and tradition that makes you ugly. People just cannot leave well alone, and learn to respect not judge; Even so-called educated and well researched people who comment on this blog...

You may be the most beautiful person on earth, but then you open your mouth with a ridiculous nasty comment, that shows your nasty side for which looks can never make up for...

Some are forced to wear it but there a lot of women that wear it of their own free will.To each his own.

14 June, 8:38AM

I believe Nancy's dad is Muslim albeit not a practicing one, but her mother is not...

It is her business whether she chooses to reveal her religion or not and kudos to her for keeping that part private. It does not mean she is not proud. As Lebanese we have a lot to learn about that!

COOL & SALLY = PERFECT EXAMPLE OF TWOSHALLOW AND MISERABLE IMBECILES!!

ANYONE who calls hijab discusting and ugly is actually low,discusting, pathetic and ugly themselves! I live in the west and I'm sooo proud of my hijab, hijab as some of u uneducated imbeciles represents our uniform as muslims and it protects women's dignity by not objecting her 2being VIEWED AS A SEX OBJECT, however the style or extent is culture related! I actually pray and wish that God bless' the middleeast with just a little more intellect and individuality instead of sitting there trying 2 imitate the west!

PEACE

I dont understand this DRAMA about the Hijaab now, ok Hijaab some women wear it some dont its there choice, many of my aunts are Muslim some wear the Hijabb and some dont, they are beautiful in personality aneways, I understand. Many of my finreds who study abroad dont wear the Hijabb here but when they go back home its back to Shayyla abayaa. Aneways to wear is Hijaab is a personal choice for some girls. and thats about it. It has its ups and its downs but u learn ti deal with it i guess. Need I remind all the Christian's that all Nuns wtill cover there heads and and as per pictures so did the Vigin Mary not like hijabb style bs whatever. Aneways up;s and down like i said

AND MARIA KOURY- WHICH IS URE FAKE NAME
I THINK URE THE MISERABLE ONE FOR TAKING IT OUT ON A BLOG ON PEOPLE YOU DONT KNOW, HAVING A BAD DAY SWEETIE. Keep in mind that this Hijaab hype in the media and on tv trend is very recent, when you watch old movies and tv shows not many women wore the Hijaab. Aneways open up your mind hun. Hijaab or no, ppl will always view you as a sexual object because they are men, trust me I dosent make a diffrence if u hv one on or not. You can be as PROMISCUOUS.

KEEP YOUR PRAYERS TO GOD BECAUSE OUR MIDDLE EAST WILL NEVER STOP TRYING TO BE MORE WESTERN.....IT WILL KEEP GOING.

PEACE.

In Hijab a Muslim Girl looks 10 times more beautiful.

in Islam its inside first, if ur beautiful inside then ur absolutely stunning on the outside no matter what u wear even if u wear an old sack

in islam a women is a precious pearl , and if im so precious then i will show my beauty to the person who deserves it, and not to every other man alive on this planet..

"The jewel of the sea, the pearl, has been given a very tough and rugged Hijab (Hejab) - oyster shell. It protects it from sea animals and keeps it sparkling and shining inside."

[the jewels of the world , the women, have been ordered in islam by allah to follow the hejab [btw hijab is not just the head covering] , it protects the muslim women from the world animals and keeps them sparkling and shining inside]


read this story
One day, a brilliantly beautiful and fragrant flower with attractive colors met a pearl that lives far in the bottom of the sea and has none of these characteristics. Both got acquainted with each other.

The flower said: "Our family is large; roses and daisies are members of the family. And there are many other species that are various and countless; each has a distinctive scent, appearance etc."

Suddenly, a tinge of distress appeared on the flower. "Nothing accounts for sorrow in your talk; so why are depressed?" The pearl asked.

"Human beings deal with us carelessly; they slight us. They don't grow us for our sake but to get pleasure from our fragrance and beautiful appearance. They throw us on the street or in the garbage can after we are dispossessed of the most valuable properties; brilliance and fragrance."

The flower sighed. And then the flower said to the pearl: "Speak to me about your life! How do you live? How do you feel it? You are buried in the bottom of the sea."

The pearl answered: "Although I have none of your distinctive colors and sweet scents, humans think I am precious. They do the impossible to procure me. They go on long journeys, dive deep in the seas searching for me. You might be astounded to know that the further I lay, the more beautiful and brilliant I become.

That's what upraises my value in their thought. I live in a thick shell isolated in the dark seas. However, I'm happy and proud to be in a safe zone far from wanton and mischievous hands and still the humans consider me highly valuable."

Do you know what the flower and the pearl symbolize?

think ;)

***

plus no muslim women should be forced to wear hijab, if shes gonna wear shes to wear it by her own will =)

wallahi ya BABINA i count hav said it any better.... and i wanna add sumthing....a couple of ppl who have posted above said that the virgin mary and nuns and even the very respected mother thersa all wore head covering...tru but sum1 unitelligents ppl might say: " well i dont live in the 1st century and i am niether a religious freak to cover my head" well think abou this...when cristian ppl or even jewish ppl go to church or the synagouge (dont noe how its spelled) how do they dress...dont they wear rspectable and covered clothes...sum wear a scarf over their head ...some wear lond skits and not tight clothes...etc...why is that.....i asked that question to a cristian friend of mine and she was like "oh its because we are rsspecting god1" then i told her " so you only respect god whn u go vist his house? , cuz muslims wear the hijab cuz we respect god EVERYWHERE... she looked at me and had no answer....i wonder why that was....

OK thats was my comment first of all you can say my username i like to talk hehe. I am not on anyones side here, im just talking, listen times changed since the "1st century" and religions evolved this is the only argument i can give u come religions evolve and some dont son do the math and figure out which one has not evolved, and thats urs my freind. In certain parts of the world its still very primal. Its not correct of you to assume as Christians or anyone from another, that we do not RESPECT GOD outside of Church because we sure do but we are free to not cover oursleves up. Besides I know many many Modern Sunni's who do not cover there heads up. Does that mean they are not respecting God? Hummm tell me. We all respect God in our own way Muslim or Christian. We have to stop these pointless feuds, everyone is fee to do what they wish and it dosen't make us not Respect out One God.

Its kind of hypocritical because I know many who still Drink and sin and wear the Hijaab and go against the Holy Quoran.

Once again my life story in case nobody knws im My father is Muslim and My Mum is Christian, so im not making any bad remarks to anyone. thank you.

that not my point, 1st of all to calrify things i live in america so that was her anser to me....my point was how cum you cover up when u go inside a church and then wont outside of it y that what im saying...same goes for muslims too. i mean how cum no1 absolutley no can walk inside church or even a mosque with for example a minskirt a bikini y is that...go figure ppl and find ou y.....plus i was in my enlish class and we were talking about reliion and then we came up acroos the subject of the contidicting stuff in the bible...is that what u mean by "evovlving" that the bible says one then then contridits iself in another story...now i had no idea about this until my teacher and the students in my class again who are in america said so THEMSELVES.......no i personlly dont hav a problem with christian ppl because almost all my friends are christian we respect other verymuch and when anyone offends me i have my christian friends to back me up...so im not hating on any religion at all....
and about the ppl who drink and sin we are HUMan we will always sin we werent create literally angels but likewise ur suppose to learn from ur mistake sum ppl are even muslim by name they were born it and no 0% of thier religion mayb it one of them...seriously not all muslims are mad religious and even if they are they will make mistakes to...on that note have u every seen honestly a muslim wearing HIJAB walking ito a bar?...a club?...

Sana...it's so dumb what you just said , you are saying that men are animals and women have to cover up or they will get raped, so women suffer and look like crap because men are horny.

It doesn't matter if an artist wishes to reveal her bits 2perform, na7na bi 3asr sawt ou soura, so alot of the current artists would not be as popular as they are 2day if they don't perform the way they do and it has nothing to do with their religious beliefs but their own personal choices!

As for u 'zuzu' "im not making any bad remarks to anyone.." u rele condratict urself, and yes ma name is Maria I dnt understand y my name wud have any relevance to ur response 2my comment. And next time b4 attempting 2respond 2acomment try and read the whole thread b4 posting...I wasn't taking anything out on anyone LOL, just simply highlighting ppls idiocity. And dnt get it wrong hun, there is no DRAMA about hijab, ther is only misconception...and yes ur rite its all down to free will, a girl who is covered up isn't any better than one who isn't, it's all 4 God 2judge.
