இஸ்லாமிய நம்பிகையுடைய முஸ்லீம் பெண் சொல்லிய விலைமதிப்பற்ற வார்த்தைகள்

அமைதிக்கான நோபல் பரிசை வென்ற "தவகள் கார்மன்," ( Nobel Peace Prize winner "Tawakkul Karman," )நோக்கி பத்திரிகையாளர்கள் ஹிஜாப் பற்றி கேட்கப்பட்டபோது, அவர் விடையிறுத்தார்:

 "ஆரம்ப காலத்தில் இருந்து மனித சமுதாயம் கிட்டத்தட்ட நிர்வாணமாக இருந்தார்கள் , அவர்களது  அறிவு வளர்ச்சி அவர்களை  ஆடைகளை அணியத் தொடங்கினர் .   இன்று நான் எவ்வாறு உள்ளேன் மற்றும் நான் என்ன அணிந்து இருக்கிறேன் அதுதான் நாகரீகத்தின் உச்ச கட்டமாக உள்ளது ,இந்த  சிந்தனை மனித சமூகம் அடைந்தது .இது  நாகரிகத்தின் மிக உயர்ந்த அளவில் உள்ள பிரதிநிதித்துவம், மற்றும் பிற்போக்குத்தனம் அல்ல. மீண்டும் உடைகளை அகற்றுதல் நம்மை  மீண்டும் பண்டைய  பின்னடைவுக்கு சேர்த்துவிடும் ''

A Priceless Quote from a confident Muslim Woman
Nobel Peace Prize winner "Tawakkul Karman," when asked about her Hijab by journalists, she replied:

“Human being in early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that human being has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is a regression back to the ancient times.''

DemocracyNow.org - The 2011 Nobel Peace Prize was presented this weekend to three women for "their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women's rights [to] full participation in peace-building work." Democracy Now! aired highlights on Monday of the acceptance speeches of Liberian activist Leymah Gbowee, and Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the first democratically elected female head of state on the African continent. Today we complete our coverage with the acceptance speech of Tawakkul Karman from Yemen, the first Arab woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize, as well as its youngest winner to date. Karman, a 32-year-old mother of three and an outspoken journalist and activist, has agitated for press freedoms and staged weekly sit-ins to demand the release of political prisoners from jail. She founded Women Journalists Without Chains and has played a leading part in the struggle for women's rights and for democracy in Yemen. Most recently, she has led rallies in the protests against the rule of the longstanding U.S.-ally, President Ali Abdullah Saleh. "The Arab world is today witnessing the birth of a new world which tyrants and unjust rulers strive to oppose, but in the end, this new world will inevitably emerge," Karman says. "Our oppressed people have revolted declaring the emergence of a new dawn, in which the sovereignty of the people, and their invincible will, will prevail. The people have decided to break free and walk in the footsteps of civilized free people of the world."
