After 40 lashes, emotional scarring, she still pushed through.
Being that I am only a bit familiar with codes of conduct and "rules" when it comes to women in the Middle East and in some other Muslim faith countries. I'd love to hear thoughts from some of the sistahs of who their background reflects such or have a better understanding.
I know there are many women fighting for their rights out there (and here) in many situations and for their own personal freedoms. It's seems from this story this sistah was able to journey through the emotional pain and strive for her own idea of success within self and in a career for herself.
Some people had commented that this story is fake, but who are they to make judgment unless they have facts to prove so. The FACT is whether they want to say it's true or not, doesn't hide the fact that this happens ALL the time to women and this is a mild case at that, I'm sure.

I am a Muslim woman, and i think that the girl deserved what she got. she committed a crime according to islamic laws and therefore shes entitled to be penalized. maybe people in the west could learn a lesson of obidence, when you do a crime you pay the time. people in the middle east are becoming to much like the west and are trying to imitate them. they are being polluted with the sinful ways they carry out. with thier music, clothing, and sexual acts. its discusting but we are so used to it, that we think its natural for teens to act this way.
Thank you for sharing your insight. The hardest thing about being out here in the West is that we only get to hear the point of view from the media, but it is important hearing from women who understand it more in depth. Justice for things is dealt with in so many different ways around the world, but once it is dealt with in a way that is foreign to someone it really leads to misconstrued ideologies.
Thank you for sharing.
