Someone on my FB posted the link to this today.Now it has become an argument over there.A group of people think that it is a sad affair and that we lead double lives in the USA and find substitutes for everything.The other group thinks that there is nothing wrong with it,and it is just some fun without a compromise on principles.
I personally have not been able to see anything wrong with it.Or is it really a double life thing?
Opinions…??
I think it's great! The girls showed initiative and I think it is really admirable. I also love that many non-muslim students attended this prom as well. Kudos to these girls for organizing the event.
Exactly.I was not able to see the person's point on FB either.He kept on stressing that the girls were trying to hard to fit in.And they were finding substitutes and that they danced and all that and wore the abaayas and scarves again when it was prayer time.I failed to see what was wrong with all that.It was a girls-only thing so why would they need pardah during that and they were not doing anything wrong,just having fun the halal way.
It actually became quite a debate in my news feed last night..!
Is this really considered a 'sad affair' in US? lol
Don't they have all girls/all boys high school or Catholic schools over there? Thats how proms are usually done in those schools and its considered perfectly normal here...
I went to my high school prom as well, and it was fun. Dateless, but danced all night. Didn't do the hotel party afterwards - wasn't interested. Most people actually went home once the prom finished.

yes....I went too......dateless but had a blast........along with three other desi friends that went dateless.
we did do the after party thing but it was simply going to a club, which was boring......and then to a friend's house for a sleep-over.
