Mar 9, 2010 13:25 Report abuse Really sad to see this kind of Behavior . Islam teaches us not to discriminate but we see lots of discrimination not only related to above article subject but in all other matters too. May Allah guide us all Ameen. Mohammad Nasser Mar 9, 2010 13:27 Report abuse I think the Government of Saudi Arabia is not fair to equality of being who you are. I am 20 years working in the Kingdom, half of my life spending here and hoping that the Government of Saudi Arabia will give me a chance to be a Filipino Saudi Citizen but I am sad because of the Sharia Law, well all I can say is luck of the system regulation and paranoid of the Government of Saudi Arabia is the reason why they treated unfair to those who born as Saudi. Aliya Al-Quraishi Mar 9, 2010 13:28 Report abuse ItâTs saddening to know that my kids are going to suffer the same way as these kids born to Saudi mothers and non-Saudi fathers are suffering. I expected a great future for my kids! Right now, my kids are too young to understand all this but I pray from God that by the time they reach to the age of 18, these rules would have changed and my daughters would be able to get the Saudi nationality as easily as my son! ( I can only pray for this that the rules would changed by then ). I donâTt want my kids to suffer just because they are born to a non-Saudi father. And guess what? My kids have never traveled to their father's country as the entire family of his lives here. Nor they speak my husbandâTs language! And if someone asks them where they are from, they say that they are Saudi, and I only pray in my heart that someday Insahlla they will be citizens of this holy land! They deserve a better chance! And I have hopes that soon all this would change and the Saudi government will accept them with open arms. Inshalla! I believe in âo the best is yet to comeâ and I am spending my life only praying for the better future for my kids! Lets all hope that this will all change very soon, inshalla! nazir Mar 9, 2010 13:43 Report abuse She should apply for Bahraini citizenship. Also how can she travel to Egypt if she does'nt have their nationality? gulrez Mar 9, 2010 13:47 Report abuse these things in rest of the world are called racism. Sara Al-Shaikh Mar 9, 2010 13:47 Report abuse Another sad story ! Every time I read or hear a story like this, it makes me sad. Men and women have equal rights in Islam. What difference does it make if someone's mother was Saudi or father. The fact that someone was born to a Saudi should be enough to grant him/her the citizenship regardless of gender. G Mar 9, 2010 14:04 Report abuse have any of these ladies tried applying at international companies in Saudi? N. Ahmad Mar 9, 2010 14:17 Report abuse I dont have more bad words for local system. They called Europeon are biased people but I will say they are 100 times better than you, because they support every Christians wether they are from any part of europe/us. You says Islam teaches us this that this but in practical zero. Reader Mar 9, 2010 14:18 Report abuse The more I read the Saudi newspapers the more I am get confused about the Saudi claims. Being the custodians of the holyland and the birth place of Islam, the Saudis have more responsibilities to set good examples for the rest of the Muslim world. The Saudi males/decision-makers are still living in the pre-Islamic period when females were buried alive just because they were females. This kind of discrimination is not found even in non-Muslim societies. Did anyone ever thought for a while that this kind of unfair rules can destroy families???????? apollo Mar 9, 2010 14:18 Report abuse what nationality she has? im confuse and angry ahsan hashmi Mar 9, 2010 15:33 Report abuse saudi arabia instead of having so many resources and blessings, lives in stone age. shaxi Mar 9, 2010 15:34 Report abuse I was born in dis country and spent my whole life to seve dis country. I don't no y they have such stupid laws. Because they are rich. Think one day oil runs out from your country. Every single foreigner will leave dis country and by the way saudi's r not running this country. This country run by minds of foreigners. I love dis country but i hate these laws and these are not shariah laws There are two kinds of rights. One v called Huqoob al ibad and others are Huqooq al Nas. I can't c any Huqooq al nas in dis country i swear down. You know when gulf war started. every single muslim who's living in the kingdom helped saudia and its people but i don't y saudi's don't respect other people's feelings and they treat them like animals especially maids and street cleaners.
