Saudis and Women & the Death Sentence passed by fake Ull

[The Law26]

Few years ago I watched this docu-drama called "Death of a Princess." It was a film about a Saudi princess who was publicly executed, along with her husband. I think it serves to show the hypocrisy of the Saudi religous elite. It seemed to me that as long as the women stayed covered as ninja type and behind closed doors the situation was generally accepted. Only after a woman, the Princess chose to reject control by her royal family (in choosing a Saudi commoner to marry) and openly rejecting Saudi rules, was she prosecuted and killed. So it goes to show that Saudis are not as concerned with genuine Islamic law as they say, and more concerned with social and tribal notions of one's place in society, and whether dishonor is brought upon a family.

This film caused a lot of controversy, not only among the Saudis, but among the U.S. and British goverments because it was televised by the BBC and PBS respectively, and even Mobil Oil/Aramco company because they were afraid the impact that the Saudis' outrage with the film would have on the money they were getting from Saudi oil. The Saudis were outraged because it revealed what some what really goes on in the palace and they don't want their dirty laundry exposed.

It was a good film. It goes into how the Saudi rulers use their own perverted version of Islam to abuse women and maintain control of the people in general and how the Islam that is practiced in Saudi Arabia is not the Islam of the Qur'an practiced by the majority of the Muslim world. Guess who issues fatwa's on their behalf?

The film also deals with how the ruling Saudi family have made their own perverted version of Isalm that opposes human decency and rubber-stamped by Bin-Baz and co. It is not Islam, but rather their own tribal practices and beliefs.

The reason why the House of Saud is able to control with its twisted version of Islam is because that area of land is the birth place of Islam and that Mecca and Medina are within its borders, but that there was no country Saudi Arabia at the advent of Islam. So in their minds, quite naturally since they are living in Islam's birthplace, the version of Islam they practice must be right--or at least that's what they want the people to believe.

Somalisiz and likeminded., I hope you girls move permanently to Saudi Arabia.

It is the 25th anniversary of this beheading (movie), and it was really good and worth looking into. Check out the "Death of a princess".

I have spoken to many Saudi men who are familiar with the case and who else is a better friend to the Israeli's than the house of Al-Saud and its Ullemmas, the wahabi Mufta's and scholars.

The point here is that it is interesting to note that 1400 years ago prophet Mohamed pbuh stopped killing baby girls. It was an uncivilized Arab custom to bury live baby girls and one of the first thing prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did is to speak up against it. Again later part of his life he reminded his followers NOT to punish people on doubts only.

The "Honor killing" concept predates Islam and have no relation to the religion. But for the Saudis, it is still part of their culture and this kind of culture is evil and is against Islam. They are not an Islamic society that meets the minimal standards of Islamic law. Thus, there is no society that is authentically representative of Islam today. There are Muslim societies (where the majority of the people are Muslim), and like the Saudis, there are hybridizations of various civilizational, cultural, ethnic, tribal and religious factors. Like the Somali society, this points that the Saudis has the negative influences of tribal customs history which negatively effects its social relations, that have surfaced which can be dated to preIslam, or unIslamic sources.

Any adult Muslim woman have full rigths. There are some guidance on marriage, but no one can force her to marry any specific person if she does not like that man. Her only mistake was marrying a Muslim Saudi commoner. Yaa saatir.
