I haven't watched QH for a couple of epis now and plan on not watching it unless I hear of repenting going on where Asad cries tears of blood. This is news for me...mini skirt.

I don't know why you are surprised. This forum is full of hypocritical people who live and breathe their judgmental religious BS just like Asad. Sometimes I swear I simply cannot stand religious people. They are so hypocritical that it's hard to talk to them without wanting to deck them. Maybe it's because I am not religious that's why. I don't know. But this isn't all religious people. Most are reasonable people. Most pick and choose the aspects of religion that they like and that are congruent with their morals, which is good. That's exactly how it should be. You cannot take a 2000 year old book and treat it as if everything in that book is actually real. When people do take the book too seriously that's when we have problems like female oppression and female genocide. And even if you take that book very seriously, you treat it as if its real then fine. Just don't impose your views on other people.

This is the 21st century folks. In this day and in this new age, wearing skirts is normal and no one has the right to say anything if someone is wearing one. If you don't like it then fine be a grown up and suck it up. I find it strange when I see Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Catholic (the pope anyone) men and women attired in religious clothing but do I say anything to them? Do I stop them wearing their outfits that look weird to me? No. Because this is the way of our world. Live and let live. If someone wants to call themselves a Muslim and they want to drink, smoke, have premarital sex ,wear mini skirts...well that is their business. Other Muslims should butt out because no one has the right to tell another person how to live their life.

Sometimes I feel like no matter how many centuries will pass, we human kind will remain where we are...knees deep in ignorance and stupidity.

P.S. Rapunzale- Zoya may have been raised in America but whenever I see her...I can scarcely believe she is American. She doesn't seem like a progressive to me either. Just my opinion though.

Another issue I have is why is a mini skirt a sign of a progressive Zoya? A modern educated woman is reflected on in her micro mini skirt but her ability to stand up and speak out against a slap. When it comes to the slap Zoya has definitely not been raised in New York and if she has it is within a very conseravtive, orthodox and patriarchal soceity where she does not have any idea how to speak up for herself.

i do not disagree...but whether american or indian...islam remains the same and i think that non muslim viewers will get the wrong interpretation of muslims..becoz muslims are noticed by their dress .and miniskirt should be worn after the marriage for the husband not before...i am sorry if i hurt anyone by my comment ..jus my pov

I completely agree...dressing in a way shouldn't be showing the character of a woman but the way she stands up for herself...Zoya did grew up in a progressive New York but she is not necessarily progressive at all...forget about the slap...she would have been really considered progressive if she would have walked out of the khan house the first time Asad insulted her.
