A Priceless Quote from a confident Muslim Woman

Hummus —

 

 

Nobel Peace Prize winner 'Tawakkul Karman', when asked about her Hijab by journalists and how it is not proportionate with her level of intellect and education, replied:

'Human being in early times was almost naked, and, as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that human being has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is a regression back to the ancient times'.

Ermm.. i need to find out, but i think she's from Yemen? The other two are defineatly from Liberia. Can we interview such people? I thought it might make more sense if the people that are going to be interviewed live close by.

[quote=Hummus]Tawakkul Karman's quote is something that Femen need to be made aware of.

SHE is the one who speaks on behalf of us all. SubhanAllah![/quote]

This is the point I made during the counter protest. She IS representative of us. She is a strong progressive, Muslim woman.

& Yes, she's in Yemen but I'm sure a phone/skype interview could be arranged you should deffo look in to it.
