Sun, 07 Aug 2005 03:01:34 -0700

I dont know y some people always try to find some thing in saudi arabia weather it is good or bad they do but some people are always behind pointing there fingers on saudi arabia.. This happen that happen in saudi, 10 year girl marry in saudi, etc etc.
 
I thought earlier only non muslims do this because the are enemy of Saudi Arabia but seeing our Muslim brother or Sister do this i really feel Very sad Many times i said what ever you hear or read from any source dont comment on it unless you make it clear and authentic that the news which you read or heard is true or false, then comment on it if you are on that stage to comment, if you are also in one or other way not perfect then i think one does not have Authority to point his finger on others.
 
So please my muslim brother and sister Avoid from spreading any news on hearing until you verify it else leave it where ever u heard or u read there only.
 
If you dont do this then on the day of judgement you will be answerable to Allah and that day would be very bad for every individual who has passed his comments or news heard of any where or any news.
 
Specially i think in saudi arabia many good works also goes on, but no one highlight that  only if there is some bad things in saudi arabia goes on All will point there fingers on it. Muslims brother/ sisters this is our country where we have holy sites if some human beings are bad then we cannot blame islam or whole muslim community, or whole saudi arabia. hope you who has send this below email has understood it
 
Jazakallah Khair.

TAIF, 22 July 2005 — A young Saudi though slow to start was quick to finish a wedding. And his marriage, which took three hours from proposal to honeymoon, was a record of sorts, Arabic newspaper Al-Madinah reported. The young man, wracked with doubt whether his proposal would be accepted by the would-be bride’s family, screwed up his courage and proposed.

He was pleasantly surprised when the family accepted his proposal and asked him to marry her on the same day. Not one to let an opportunity slip away, the youth went to the hospital for the medical certificate and as he made his way home withdrew the SR3, 000 dowry money. The whole process from the moment he proposed and to the couple’s honeymoon took 3 hours. The members of both families too were surprised at the swift sequence of events that brought about a happy ending.

Comments – Mine

It seems that in Saudi Arabia the prospective bridegrooms have to provide a medical certificate to prove that they are not infected with any sex related diseases. This necessity is applicable only to men. The basis of this it seems is that it is normally accepted that promiscuity in Muslim societies are at a very low level compared to other societies. Even within that small percentage majority of the culprits are men compared to women. This is because men have more freedom to move around, meet people etc than women.

But it is unfair to stigmatize only the men by asking them to prove their medical fitness. We are living in an era where Muslim women are screaming for gender equality in all areas. In that context it is unfair on the part of the Saudi authorities to single out only the men for medical testing.
