Muhannad

So you may have read my article about Turkish dramas before and as you may have gathered I’m not a big fan but this sudden surge of Noor related divorces is just outrageous. It seems that husband all over the Arab world –including Saudi Arabia- are divorcing their wives due to their uncanny obsessions with the character of Muhannad! You cannot blame the guy for being good looking and that I understand but then was it nessecary to bring this to the Arab world?!

It is obvious that the women are falling in love with Muhannad because of the way he ‘woes’ the women on the show and because of how perfect his character appears! Maybe the men should also lay off throwing around divorces, but again I understand it’s hard to live with a woman who arrives to a funeral and asks if they have MBC 4 so she can not miss Noor and Muhannad (true story)! Do we ban the series? Censor it? Replace Muhannad with someone ugly? What is to be done!

Karim the word you are looking for is woo woe is something entirely different.

If you have an interesting life with a happy marriage it won't cause a divorce only a fool will think like that. Its people that are bored and unhappy.

People get obsessed ith tv programmes look at Star Academy which is a bit sad.

How ridiculous! If a man divorces a woman over a television show, then he is not only an idiot, but incredibly immature. She's better off without him. He obviously has NO CLUE what committment really means. I pity children having such such a father.

Wow...are Arabs that stupid???? I am embarrassed by this!!! He is a CHARACTER on a TV SHOW People!!!! So what if women admire him. Its only natural for a man or women to be attracted to a beautiful actor/actress. After all they are acting on a SHOW and their character is meant to be attractive. WOWWWWWWW I am so disappointed by how ignorant Arabs have become. Why why can we not be normal like the rest of the world when we watch television???

Also, I want to mention that this is all from EXTREME Islam and nothing else....sorry if this offends anyone, but its the absolute truth. Anything extreme is not a good thing, and it seems like extreme Islam is spreading throughout the Arab world. Do not get me wrong I am not against religion or islam, but I am against how ignorant they are as a result of it.

well obviously the guy is HOT!! u cant blame him its how god created him, these stupid arabs are really embarrasing me , i mean its a guy on a tv show i think their is a 0% chance that any of their wives will ever meet kivanc. WE CANT CENSOR IT CUZ ITS ALREADDY CENSORED ON THE MBC IF THOSE GUYS SAW HIM ON THE TURKISH VERSION THEY WOULD KILL THEIR WIVES NOT ONLY FILE FOR DIVORCE. THE ARAB WORLD IS GETTING EVEN MORE CORRUPTED.

ummm yep, arabs should definitely get out a bit more ya haram all cooped up in front of the t.v watching dramas and fantasising about a character (character being the operative word) is definitely not good, maybe some1 should set up an arab helpline, here in australia we have a helpline 4 people who want to quit smoking, drugs or people with depression but i think arabs need a national helpline called "im addicted to soap operas with stupid translations in melodramatic voices" and make it toll free as well lmfao

oh yeah and to the person who thinks they r so modern to insult any religion due to a social reason is just so simplistic, following ur logic, these losers if were true adherants of islam as far as im aware) would be averting their gaze in the first place and not popping their eyes out everytime a guy with blonde hair and blue eyes comes on t.v so puhleeeez stop giving us this B.S and STOP trying to sound like an progressive individual without backing up your comments, obviously these women r so bored, jobless, lazy etc etc with nothing better to do and their husbands have such low self esteem they file for divorce so again i say "GET OUT A BIT MORE!!!" Oh yeah and the only exception to this would be if Wael Kfoury was the object of your desires lol all u girls are exempt so lets all keep drooling hehehe

Lebroyalty, the whole problem is that most of these women CANNOT "GET OUT A BIT MORE!!!". However your statement that they are bored is true, though I doubt very much that they are lazy.

Karim, Jools was right when stating that an interesting and happy marriage does not fall apart due to such a reason ; These are in no way happy marriages.

A happy marriage constitues of understanding, compromise and respect between two partners, something obviously lacking when a husband throws the word 'talaq' over a TV charactor. It would be very easy to label these men as cruel selfish, insecure and heady with their own power knowing they are in complete control. Unfortunately a lot of Arab men suffer from crisis due to their sense of shame and humiliation, in the past few decades a lot of damage has been done to the Arab psyche. I am not trying to excuse Arab men by saying that but frustration and feeling of inadequacy can make you act in a very irrational manner.

I do not believe it is the result of Islam either; Such horrendous treatement by men towards their womenfolk can occur anywhere in the world even in the most 'civilized' nations.

I can understand being frustrated with your partner when they get obsessed with celebrities but goodness gracious some of these women have nothing else, let them have Muhannad until the series finishes and they can obsess with the next series that follows.

Um Yah this is more like Khaeejy arabs. In Palestine it is no big deal and no one is divorcing over a show! I Bet the Saudi's are just looking for excuses to divorse. And they need to clarify that this is happening in the 5aleeg and not in our countries in Balad'al Sham (the Levant)

Be open minded people.... Why is Noor divorce his husband because of Muhannad? If thats the case, maybe because there are reasons... But people should not blame Muhannad.... It is just a SHOW. It is his character to portray.... Nothing else....

i agree with to nancy u cant blame religion
and another thing is that those men are right because i heard that one of these woman said to her husband that she want to sleep a night with mohanad so of course he divorce her

OMG i cant believe how stupid some people are!! but please, no one even think about replacing him!! its just some bord, middle aged phsycos who are just looking for an excuse to get divorced and only wanna get divorced to get attention!!!
He is a hunk though!!
I've heard alot of people talkin about this nd most people seen to want to blame arabs, but regardless of culture, some people actually try to stick it out with each other and others do just fught for no reason, even though they should be greatful that they have someone, living in a world where theyre are people who've lost their families or have been separated from their loved ones, and people need to see that one day, theyre gonna need that person they carelessly chucked away.
Last thing [coz I wrote a lecture loll] is that its all fiction; life aint like that. I meen in can be for about 30% of the time, but the rest is work/compromise it aint all romance nd women who get too involved with it need to wake up and stop fanticising.
Oh yeah, and I am married and look at celebs all the time but no one cares [well, my mum does] it meens nothing!! My husband likes rock music but he still goes on youtube and searches Beyonce, but who cares?!?!

why look at it this way,,think of the good things the beauty of this actor has brought to some families.My husband is totally not romantic but by watching the series with me and realizing how much i love this actor,and by telling him "look how he treats his wife" i noticed some nice changes in him,,it's funny they get jealous sometimes from an actor ,,but still it's good,i'm glad.During the past month my husband has become very caring and romantic,not like he wasn't before but now more.so i'm glad i met mohannad..lol..as for the divorces rates,this is silly,,quarrels,arguments,,,,etc..ok....but divorce???????common

Mohannad is really handsome and he is acting very good as an actor. Of course all of us when you work in the movies or TV series must be care yourself to become more handsome and beautiful otherwise if you are not that, no one will watch you. Be understand all actresses and actors must be good looking so that you will have more fees on your show. To be easy millionaire be handsome and beautiful and act perfectly in the TV and Movies then you will be famous and you will have a successful career. This is the life to be an actress and actor.
Genthlemen: When your ladies friends & wife admired Muhannad an actor in the Noor TV series, just leave them this is only a TV show a normal show, there is nothing to be changed your life just because of him. I wish you all enjoying only watching this TV series and hope no personal distructions.

All the best.
