Bustin your oves’ … hahaha I thought nobody else said that one.

Your blog is so well written and informative. Love it!

Peace, many thanks and Ramadan Mubarak may Allah Subhana Wa Ta’Ala bless your endeavors this and every month.

I’m not sure why people keep universalizing their experiences. Why is it that just because you happen to be Muslim, you are somehow an authority on how Muslims behave and believe. I come from religiously conservative family, though it is single parent household, but this whole emphasis on marriage before you get “too” old has never been an issue but education sure was. And my mom married when she was in her late twenties in the fifties and no pressure was put on her. My grandma who married in her homeland at the age of 14 doesn’t even tout off this crap. The thing is I won’t say my experience is that of an average Muslim women. How the hell would I know? I’m not going to universalize my own experiences and tag it on to others. But the author of this blog seems to be doing that. Maybe in her culture, it’s a stigma not getting married at 25, but not in others, and certainly not for all Muslims.

I think that is a very healthy sign as it shows that the hope of Arab unity from Iraq to Morocco wilis still high.

Im waiting for reports that she was sentenced to lashes or some such shit to be forthcoming…just waiting.

Interesting. Just curious, what are Arabic films from other Arab countries referred to as?
