US High School Stages All-Female Prom to Cater to Muslims...

error104 · May 3rd, 2012, 04:54 PM

A Michigan high school has staged an all-girl prom.
Hamtramck High School, a school near Detroit with a significant Muslim population, put on the strobe light-filled event last Saturday night.
Organised by Tharima Ahmed, a 17-year-old senior student at the school, the event drew 100 of the co-educational school's 900 students.

As many Muslim students are not allowed to attend prom due to religious beliefs that restrict females from dancing with males, the prom strictly prohibited boys.
It was the first all-female prom staged by Hamtramck High but judging by the evening's success, it is not likely to be its last.
While many of the students who attended were Muslim, the prom, which took seven months to plan, also attracted non-Muslim students.

Tharima Ahmed, 17, organizer of Hamtramck High School’s first all-girl prom, got ready for the big night in Michigan with help from her sisters, Thabia and Shuhada (right).

Past graduates who had never attended their own prom, also attended.
After Miss Ahmed took a survey of the high school's female student she found that 65per cent were not able to attend a co-ed prom due to their religion.
After lengthy discussion between the senior student with the school's staff, an all-female prom was given the green light.
For some of the girls, it was the first time they were allowed to show their hair in front of their classmates at a social event.
Normally hidden underneath a traditional Muslim cloak, several heads of hair had been pronged to perfection for their literal unveiling.

Miss Ahmed, who is a Muslim teenager of Bangladeshi-American descent, told the New York Times that the event has had a significant emotional impact on her.
She said through tears: 'I am just very, very thankful that I took a part in putting this prom together, this was just amazing. It just changed me into a different person and I've become much more independent.'
With the help of her friends, the student had a hall decorated in a 'Once Upon A Time' theme.

Good for them. Hamtramk is like twenty minutes from my place and its mostly inhabited by bangladeshi muslims. Then on the other side we have dearborn which is heavily arab dominated city. It was only fair that the school approved of this prom otherwise you'd have plenttyy of people pissed off and pissed off muslims is not a pretty sight.

They should start their own all female school

better yet, they should go back to where they came from

Another prime example of the Islamification, Islamization, Muhammadisation etc of America and western nations. It literally is spreading like a cancer. And we all know how Christians, Jews and disciples of other religions are treated in Islamic nations, force to pay Jizya (tax for not being a mussie) ...hmm

^ Abuse of the west for being accomodative, to be exact.

A devout Muslim entered a black cab in London. The Muslim asked the driver to turn off the radio because by his religious teaching he must not listen to music because in the time of the prophet there was no music . The driver politely switched off the radio stopped the cab and opened the door. The Arab asked the driver "What are you doing?" The driver answered "In the time of the prophet there were no taxis so fuck off and wait for a camel".

Question for you: what negative impact is this exactly having on society that you need to refer to it as cancer? An all girl prom? How dare they
