[NYC Rebel]

......suspending all flights for Nigerian pilgrims to Saudi Arabia for Hajj.



Muslims love you much, niqqas?


fukk yall

 

[Gallo]

So Saudi Arabia gave Nigeria the face.

 

[Mr. Somebody]

You should tell the whole story though, friend. This is because of a quarrel between the two nations over 1100 women being sent back to Nigeria for not attending Hajj with a male guardian. Nigeria believes it should be exempt from this rule but Saudi Arabia says they are not.

Lastly, it was Nigeria that suspended the flights to Saudi Arabia, not Saudi Arabia.

Lets give the facts instead of trying to paint demonic pictures that separate us from friends who are supposed to respect our words as being honest and having integrity. Anything less is so demonic, friend.

No......Saudi Arabia is sending many Nigerians back. The national Hajj commission of Nigeria suspended further flights trying to sort things out. The Saudi's are claiming that they're keeping out the women on the basis of them not having their husbands last names. 512 Nigerian women are set to be deported.

Saudi Arabia Expels Nigerian Women Pilgrims

Saudi Arabia Expels Nigerian Women Pilgrims

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi Arabia on Friday began expelling over a thousand Nigerian women on religious pilgrimage to the country because they had arrived without male guardians, the first time it sent back such a large group in enforcement of strict rules governing women.

The government ministry that oversees the Hajj pilgrimage said the 1,100 women had violated a longstanding law by travelling without an immediate male relative, adding that females of all nationalities under the age of 45 must have a male guardian during the Hajj pilgrimage.

"This is a rule that is generally applied to women who have applied for a visa to enter the kingdom," the Hajj ministry said in a statement.

In Saudi Arabia, women are not allowed to travel without a male guardian, such as a father, brother, uncle or husband, or at the very least permission from such a relative. In the past, authorities had allowed women over 45 to perform the annual pilgrimage without the guardians as long as they were in groups with male tour operators and pilgrimage officials.

The annual pilgrimage, which this year comes at the end of October, is a religious duty for Muslims who are supposed to make the trip once in their lives. Many arrive weeks in advance.

The expulsions may set the stage for a diplomatic confrontation.

Nigeria's pilgrimage commission says a bilateral agreement exempts its female nationals from the rule, and the country is sending a delegation to Saudi Arabia to discuss the expulsions. They also say some women have been turned back because they appeared to not have sufficient proof of being married despite being accompanied by their husbands.

The women, who arrived in the city of Jiddah in three groups, were held after landing at the international airport starting Monday. Saudi authorities said they would be allowed to return if they came back with guardians, but did not signal any flexibility or recognize the Nigerian claim of an exemption to the guardianship rules.

"The rules of Hajj have been in place for many years and nothing has emerged that requires us not to abide by them," said Hatem bin Hassan Qadi, deputy Hajj minister. He added that he hoped pilgrimage commissions around the world abide by the requirements of the trip before pilgrims' departure.

Rules limiting the independence of Saudi women are far-reaching in the kingdom. They may not study abroad unless a male guardian approves and accompanies them throughout their studies. Government-run hospitals perform surgery on women only with approval of a male guardian, except in emergencies. If a husband or father is not available, mothers turn to their sons for approval to work or travel.

More than 2 million Muslims descend on Saudi Arabia's Mecca for the pilgrimage, with around 1.5 million of them coming from outside the Gulf region.

Pilgrims often save their entire lives for the trip and Muslim philanthropists donate to enable those who cannot afford it. The Hajj, which lasts five days, costs anywhere between $4,000 upward to more than $25,000 per person.

1,000 Nigerian Women Are Stranded in Saudi Arabia Because They Aren't Traveling with Men - Global - The Atlantic Wire

1,000 Nigerian Women Are Stranded in Saudi Arabia Because They Aren't Traveling with Men

For the fifth straight day, around 1,000 Nigerian women taking the Muslim Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca are stuck in Saudi Arabia airports because of a rule that says they must be accompanied by men. Speaking on condition of anonymity, an airport official told the AFP that the women were detained because "they are not accompanied by a mahram (the statutory male companion)." Nigeria's ambassador to Saudi Arabia told the BBC, "They are stopping women particularly between the ages of 25 and 35 without a male relative. Those over 45 are not a concern to the Saudi authorities." One woman told the BBC that the situation at Jeddah airport has become pretty uncomfortable as hundreds of women are reportedly sleeping on the floor, have been denied their belongings, and are sharing only four toilets.

As ABC News reports, there is a rule in Saudi Arabia which requires the women on the Hajj to travel with a husband or male relative. And in the past Nigeria and Saudi Arabia have allowed the pilgrims' welfare boards to act as mahrams and have visas granted on that basis, reports the AFP. For now, Nigerian diplomats are working with negotiations with the Saudi government who haven't yet released a formal statement on the detention of all these women.

Nigeria stops Hajj flights over deportations - Africa - Al Jazeera English

Nigeria stops Hajj flights over deportations
Flights to Saudi Arabia suspended after hundreds of Nigerian women were deported for not travelling with male escort.

National Hajj Commission of Nigeria has suspended pilgrimage flights to Saudi Arabia after hundreds of women from the African country were prevented by the authorities in the Gulf kingdom from proceeding with their pilgrimage.

In a statement on Friday, the commission described the situation as an "unprecedented and worrisome development", adding that the suspension would enable it to "appraise the situation critically".

Uba Mana, a spokesman for the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, said on Thursday that Saudi immigration officials at King Abdulaziz Airport in Jeddah refused the women entry, saying they were not travelling with a husband or male relative.

An official put the number of the would-be pilgrims at 509. The first batch flew home on Wednesday, officials said.

Goodluck Jonathan, the Nigerian president, had set up a five-member team to negotiate with the Saudi authorities, an official statement said.

'Treated like criminals'

The women denounced their treatment at the hands of the Saudi authorities, with one traveller saying they had been treated as criminals.

Some of the women said they had been kept at Jeddah airport for as long as five days, under what they said were humiliating conditions.

"Some of us were kept in two halls for five days in humiliating conditions with little food, water and other basic needs and inadequate toilet facilities," said one of the women, Zainb Mohammed.

"Many of us have cold and fever. We did not have blankets and it was cold, especially at night."

"It is obvious that we will miss the hajj," she said, referring to one of the five pillars of Islam, which must be performed by Muslims at least once in a lifetime if they are able to do so.

Another woman, Maryam Abdullahi, said officials had humiliated them.

"I have never been so sad in my life like in the past three days," she said.

"We were held like criminals in debasing conditions. We deserve human treatment and as women and mothers, we deserve to be treated with honour but the Saudis have shown that they have no heart."
