Nigerian woman Ajibola Obabiyi wins Muslim World Beauty Pageant

21 year old University of Lagos student Obabiyi Aisha Ajibola, beat 19 other beauty hopefuls to emerge Muslimah Queen 2013. Ajibola won the exclusive beauty pageant for Muslim women which took place today Wednesday September 18th in Jakarta, Indonesia. She received 25 million rupiah ($2,200) and trips to Mecca and India as prizes.

The contestants were all required to wear headscarves, covered from head to foot. They were judged on their looks, how well they recited Koranic verses and their views on Islam in the modern world, in front of an audience of mainly religious scholars and devout Muslims

This pageant was actually staged as a retort to the Miss World pageant holding in the same country. The organizers said they wanted to create an awareness within the muslim female community that there is a better form of beauty than the one being portrayed by the Miss World. They said the pageant is Islam's answer to the glamorous Miss World Pageant. Congrats to her!

Congratulations!! I am not a Muslim but I love what they have done with this beauty pageant of theirs. I wish we so-called Christians would really go back to the basics of our faith and stop participating in and supporting the indecency and objectification of the female form that regular beauty pageantry represents and promotes.

Anonymous said...

I kinda agree with them sha....showing bikini bodies, cleavage and butt is not true beauty. BEHT ehn, I have seen more beautiful hijab wearing women naaaaaaa, how this our Niaja person win? Anyway, I'm sure she recited the entire q'uran for them.

Sheikh said...

What this pageant promotes mainly is decency. In a world where everything shouts sex and nudity, even engine oil adverts, it's important we recognize women for their intelligence, composure and finesse, and not just their physical beauty. And pls, let's avoid making negative comments abt each others Religions. This only helps achieve the Devils aim of spreading animosity and hatred amongst us. I'd never support the killings up North of innocent Christians or anywhere else, for that isn't a true representation of Islam.

First of all, they shouldn't have called it a beauty contest, it's a quran quiz competition.
Second is I like the fact that they are trying to show that you don't have to go naked to be beautiful but at the same time you shouldn't look like a ninja.
Some people are pacesetters while others are simply followers.
You people should get a life and know what your religion teaches. No one is hating on you but you can't be ahead by copying others.

Is beauty pageant Islamic? This is another way of islamizing western ideas. In Egypt and in the Arab world, they have long ago stated copying western ideas such as Arabic stand-up comedy, Islamic hip-hop, Islamic super-heroes etc.

To all u hypocrites trying to tag Islam as a religion of extremist and terrorists, yall don't know a hoot about Islam. Islam is a religion of peace. For your information, boko haram are not muslims coz they kill muslims too. They are pple who have the wrong interpretation of islamic knowledge and are doing their thing 4 their own selfish purposes. Yes islam is not a religion of pageantry, but the message dis beauty pageant is passing across is dt there is beauty in modesty and not walking around naked like its been encouraged in the present christian world and as u can see, its also not about the money.....I AM PROUD TO BE A MUSLIM!

My only question is: why did they protest against the miss World pageant been held there so much so that the pageant had to be moved? Yet they did theirs without any disturbance? Whether people wear bikini or go naked is their business. You can't force your world views on others and expect respect.

You know seriously I feel your pain but next time try and speak good English. What is all this that you said now ehn?
Plus, it's not everybody here that is against this that is a Christian. Stop feeling attacked! It's a free world. And I don't understand why you people always try to compare yourselves with Christians. Ah ah.

Pls let's stop insulting the muslims. They are free to do whatever they like. However I have an advise for the muslim folks and even every other person here. Stay true to what you believe and stop being pirates. Do your own thing and let others do theirs. Don't condemn others for doing what they do when you know you'll still copy them. Envy is not good for anyone. Stay true to you. There's beauty in uniqueness. It's a free world.

I thought beauty pageants are "secular" events. What has brought religion into this matter? This is the first religious-based beauty pageant I've ever seen. Somebody has to start it I guess.

Musty said...

First of all, big congrat to my Muslim sister Ajibola Olabiyi. Now over to the critic whatever names you like call the Muslims. The problem you are having is very simple lack of true knowledge about the religion you are practising and the religion you are critisizing. The 9/11 attacks in American had opened so many people eyes to Islam because they were told it was carried out by a Muslim fellow Osama bin Laden, which is not because it was carried out by the American government themselves. So all this atrocity committing to blackmail Islam is not new, so your opinion/view against Islam is not important if you don't do thorough research of these things. Muslims introducing beauty pageant is not to imitate the so call western world but to teach the world that the Almighty God is not interested in any nude show whether through pageant or something else. And moreso if you are not happy with Muslim sisters wearing Hijab then you have to ask why the Catholic women put on their veil. To be continue in my next comment

Musty said...

Continuing from my previous comment.
If you want to know why being a Muslim sister is so beautiful they search these Former Christian/Jewish women celebrities and important personality such as: Margret Marcus, Aminah Assilmi, Yvonne Ridley, Rosalyn Rushbrook, Pamela Taylor, Queen Noor of Jordan, Jemima Goldsmith, Isabella Eberhardt, Sana Al-Saygh, Sarah Joseph, Sheila Musaji, Tiara Jacquelina, Sharmila Tagore and so on. All these people left the activities of the Western world to become servant of the Almighty Allah. Listen/watch or read these people true confession you will know why is Islam is so beautiful. You don't condemn someone or people when you don't have concrete evidence against them. So be a researcher not a condemner. No one has ever done a true research on Islam and not convinced it is the true religion the Almighty God ordained. Once again congrats to my fellow Muslim/Nigerian sister Ajibola Obabiyi.

NB: For the all female LIB reader, expose your body for only one person i.e. your husband not to the world. Lesson learned from the Muslim World Beauty Pageant.
