Saudi women protest angers authorities

Share:

Authorities in Saudi Arabia were angry because several women protested outside a government office without permission and without male guardians, officials said.

The women who gathered at the Interior Ministry Saturday did so in violation of Islamic tradition, which calls for women to be accompanied by their guardians, Gulf News reported Sunday.

Gulf News said Saudi authorities were investigating how the women were able to travel to the capital without being accompanied by men. Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have regularly expressed concern about the state of human rights in the Arab nation.

The protesters are relatives of the deputy commander of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, Saeed al-Shihri, Gulf News reported.

They called for the release of members of the Shihri family. The Interior Ministry said only the Shariah judiciary could make a decision on their release.

Al-Shihri was one of the first detainees held at the U.S. detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and he was held in American custody nearly six years. He was on the Saudi list of the 85 most-wanted terrorists.

He may have been involved in the kidnappings and murders of foreigners in Yemen. Yemeni security forces reportedly captured him in January 2010.

  1. are we going to end the Ninja dresses in the Islamic world, did the Koran classified women as lower species, women in the Islamic world need a big Initfidah against the religious figures who try to classify them as an object that is sold and bought in marriages, and as animal that could be caged in houses and stoned to death, If moslem believe in the same god of moses so cant be that god of moses fave different instructions to Jews and Moslem , since anyway Isaac and Ismael share the same father. I cant believe that there is no intellectual men in the arab world to come out and talk openly about the hypocrisy of the religious figures, KHomeini for example was served 14 years old virgins on weekly basis , can anyone say where is that in Islam. Enoug dressing moslem woemn ninjas that are by far smarter than any western ladies and deserve their beautiful faces to be shown ,Enoug garbage Fatwas !!!!

      wow guss pationate speech, but I do have to mention to you that you are inacurate about your accounts. quran does classify women as lower species, I guess you didnt know this. quran says a woman’s testimony is equal to half of a man’s testimony.
      mohamed was served a 6 yr old virgin (aisha) along with numerous sex slaves like maria(the copt) etc…
      I do agree with you when you speak about the need for equality, but how do you expect muslims to adhere to this when their religion forbids them from doing so?
      btw it was mohamed who ordered the women covered, this after omar saw mohamed’s wife sawda doing poopoo.
      read in sahih al bukhari kitab el wudu2 = صحيح البخاري كتاب الوضوء
      hadith name : khuruj al nisa2 2ila el biraz = خروج النساء الى البراز
      hadith number: 143
      according to this sahih hadith: the wives of mohamed used to go out at night to do poopoo, omar ibn el khattab one night saw one of the wives of mohamed doing poopoo so he went inside and told mohamed he saw sawda(one of mohamed’s wives) doing poopoo, mohamed asked him how he knew it was sawda, omar said from her body, then omar suggested to mohamed to make an order for his wives to cover themselves, then allah reveals the aya about the covering of women.

      “Enoug dressing moslem woemn ninjas” I agree 1000% but this is islam my friend not the mullahs or the imams or ayatollahs.

      “I cant believe that there is no intellectual men in the arab world to come out and talk openly about the hypocrisy of the religious figures” … the hypocrisy is in islam itself not just the religious figures, they are implementing what mohamed taught them.

      are there men amongst the arabs that are men enough to come out and criticize what mohamed taught? they will be silenced in a second by angry brainwashed muslims who will kill in the name of someone “insulting” their prophet.

      1. What the hell is poopoo?!!

      3. definitely you know more , I did base my saying on Sheigh Fadlallah Fatwa last year banning the women to cover from toe to head as it is not part of Koran. is the Hadith an obligatory part that they have to adhere too?
