Model and actor Omar Sharif, Jr., grandson of Omar Sharif, the Egyptian
leading man who starred in 'Dr. Zhivago' and 'Funny Girl,' has revealed not
only that that he is gay, but also that his mother is Jewish. Uh Oh, under
Islamic law, he's screwed!

OMAR SHARIF, Jr
*Sharif, who resides in LA, lamented the fate of Egypt after the 2011
revolution: “The vision for a freer, more equal Egypt — a vision that many
young patriots gave their lives to see realized in Tahrir Square — has been
hijacked.* The full spectrum of equal and human rights are now wedge issues
used by both the Supreme Council of the Egyptian Armed Forces and the
Islamist parties, when they should be regarded as universal truths.”
He continued: “That my mother is Jewish is no small disclosure when you are
from Egypt, no matter the year. And being openly gay has always meant
asking for trouble, but perhaps especially during this time of political
and social upheaval. With the victories of several Islamist parties in
recent elections, a conversation needs to be had and certain questions need
to be raised. I ask myself: Am I welcome in the new Egypt? *(Not anymore)*
“Will being Egyptian, half Jewish, and gay forever remain mutually
exclusive identities? Are they identities to be hidden?” *(A little too
late for that now)*
*Judaism is matrilineal according to the Halacha, or Jewish law, which
means if a mother is Jewish her offspring are also considered Jewish.
Hence, Sharif would be considered fully Jewish. Muslim tradition, however,
is patrilineal, meaning the faith is passed down via the father.*
