Definition of faasiq:
Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa’ah rule upon him that he is indeed a believer deficient in his Imaan or a believer in his Imaan disobedient due to his kabeerah [major sin] and counted amongst the believers and from amongst the people of Tawheed when he does not posses a quality from amongst the qualities of shirk which exits a person from the Millah [deen] then that which remains with him in name is Al-Imaan and Al-Islaam, so that he remains Muslim except that he is deficient in his Imaan.
It is amazing how this woman, Azalina Othman, could proudly display her faasiq nature and get away with this pronouncement:
Malaysia’s sports minister, a Muslim woman with a martial-arts black-belt, likes to lead by example: she does not wear a headscarf and insists that Muslim sportswomen do not have to cover up either. Azalina Othman Said, 43, believes women offer the best chance of glory for a modern Muslim nation hungry for sporting success - but in trying to encourage more girls to take up sports, she is quietly holding the line against conservative Islam.
Wearing a tracksuit-top and pants, Azalina told Reuters in an interview in her office on Tuesday that Muslim sportswomen were free here to dress just like their non-Muslim rivals, whether in the pool, on the diving board or in the gymnastics arena.
“It’s never become an issue in Malaysia,” she said, declaring that women of all ages should, and do, feel free in this country to “wear shorts and jump around”. “I mean we have Muslim gymnasts wearing tights and it’s never crossed anyone’s mind about how athletes are dressed. I am quite thankful that the people of Malaysia are still open-minded.”
Stupid, stupid, stupid. Stupid, silly BS (pardon my un-ladylike language, liberal extremists always have the knack of pissing The Islamoholic off).
It is an insult on believers like The Islamoholic that this woman thinks that wearing the hijab is backward. Yours truly certainly do not have any problems wearing it. This woman should learn to shut up and stop talking about Islam before she does more damage to the religion. The Islamoholic would suggest that JAKIM officials pay her a visit, drag her by the taekwondo belt to Ulu Yam, and put her into the rehabilitation center so that she will repent.

and thank goodness for azlina i say. why should malaysian sportswomen by disadvantaged by uncomfortable impractical clothes?
women should decide for themselves how they dress!

She’s just saying that women are FREE in this country to dress as they like. if you feel like covering up..cover up. if you dont..dont. whats so wrong in that. and why are you being so defensive.

while i’m glad for this lady, i see so many sweating uncomfortable malay girls in long sleeves and tudongs on sports fields when i visit schools. give them the choice without pressure! actually the kids who do suceed and are in sports schools do dress sensibly. dress should first and foremost be a matter of practicality. and we want women to succeed, don’t we?

Non-believers are funny, they never realized that GOD really exist and our souls are forever and that we will be judged by GOD in the hereafter. But I do understand, just like Azalina, most of you non-believers are all too busy with the world and never ask yourself one very important question … why are we here ?
Remember non-believers, the time is near, read the Quran, and with the technological advances in science, there is no reason whatsoever to not to believe in the existence of ALLAH s.w.t.
THE TIME WILL COME!
