Saudi Influencer Under Fire After Sharing a Video of Her Wedding Ceremony With a Christian American

Story by Salam Bustanji

A Saudi Influencer received a massive backlash after she shared a video on her social media, in which she is getting married to a Christian American.

The incident sparked a controversy due to the fact that Muslim females are forbidden to marry men from different faiths.

The Saudi bride appeared in the video, dressed in a short white wedding dress, making vows to her husband, who makes his vows in Arabic as she and the guests laugh.

She also left this post on her Instagram :

I’m here to announce something, it’s my turn to be happy, I’m in love, I found my soulmate, I’m incredibly thankful it always makes me slightly teary eyed when I start to say it think it or write it, how lucky am I? I’m so happy I have never been this happy before, it even hurts!
it’s crazy how this universe works!! I dreamed of this love for so long, I knew it’s existing, but I didn’t know if I’m going to find it. he is so real, honest and he’s doing everything to make me happy. we’re so different, came from different ethnicity and different religions beliefs, but we’re so similar, our souls met long before our eyes and nothing else matters. my dream came true and he put a ring on my finger, we’re engaged, and he is the soul that I treasure the most.
مرحبا انستغرام أنا هنا لأعلن شيئًا ما ، جاء دوري لأكون سعيدة ، أنا في حالة حب ، لقد وجدت رفيقي في الحياة ، وأنا ممتنة بشكل لا يصدق، دائما تغرق عيناي بالدموع عندما أبدأ في الكلام عن حبنا او التفكير فيه أو كتابتة ، كم انا محظوظة! أنا سعيدة جدًا كما لم أكن من قبل ، حتى ان هذه السعاده احيانا تؤلم! من الجنون كيف يعمل هذا الكون !! حلمت بهذا الحب لفترة طويلة ، كنت أعرف أنه موجود ، لكنني لم أكن أعرف ما إذا كنت سأجده. هو شخص حقيقي وصادق ويعمل كل شيء ليجعلني سعيدة. لقد تحقق حلمي ووضع خاتما على إصبعي ، فنحن مخطوبان ، وهو الروح التي أقدرها أكثر من غيرها.

Reactions to the marriage in Saudi Arabia have been largely negative:

Here are some translations of the few angry social media posts which were not taken down for violating hate speech restrictions:

On a more positive note, some social media s commended the couples decision and encouraged them to ignore the haters:

But the ones who are most crazy about killing their daughters for marrying outside of faith are the ones who invented the concept of "honour killings"

.This shouldn't be an issue, after all there is no compulsion in Islam and moreover, I dnt see any sign of a Muslim in her. If thats what makes her happy, all the best for her and no point in criticizing her. May Allah guide us right

An unemployed yoruba dating an igbo gal is haram , the Davidos , FFK and other financially capable yorubas are allowed
Instead of you to be worried that they are marring your daughters into another tribe, you are here shouting haram.

Well I dnt blame you guys, all you do is exchange your daughters for money and thats where your reasoning stop, you dnt reason from other angle.

Remove oil from Saudi Arabia and you will find out that they are more primitive than Afghanistan.


There is no Muslim nation that became successful without natural resources. Their citizens don't think rather they slam their head on the ground 2hrs knocking out that which will spur their thinking

This is why a man want to come sooner than later,that is why I want you all to be ready for that man..because when he comes.. You can marry anybody from any tribe or country...when he comes peace will reign.. Love will be free and there will be no room for hatred..
He is A hero... A relief... A reformer... A saviour.

cool


the way Arabs love Americans eeehn!!. on most Dubai escort sites, a US citizen both black and white would charge times x10 what a Nigerian lady would charge or x2 what russian escorts would charge

Most schools in UAE have American and British teachers same as Saudi and Qatar, and they pay them heavily

I laugh at Dull Nigerians that think Arab and US give a shiit about religion like we choke ourselves with it

Most Islamic extremists have similar traits with our Eastern blodas: hate, hypocrisy and intolerance.
The same people who vehemently opposed BBC for wishing them Barika deSallah will be the first to criticize/abuse extremists who are against Mo Salah and Amir Khan Christmas celebration.
Just yesterday they applauded/Justified parents who murdered their daughter for getting pregnant for a Yoruba-Muslim but you'll find them on this thread condemning the Arabs.

The world will be a better place without hatefull/filled people
