BADASS Muslimahs

I've had enough of the sensationalist, exoticised, demeaning portrayals of Muslim women seen all throughout the media, and this is my way of countering all the nonsense.

This is not an attempt at 'breaking stereotypes' or trying to enlighten people, if you're ignorant enough to believe that Muslim women are oppressed and subjugated by Islam then that's your own problem.

This is my way of giving recognition to all the women who inspire me, and hopefully sending out some positive vibes.

Peace.

Aliya Mustafina congratulates/consoles Viktoria Komova and then looks at the scores for her after a great floor routine by Komova in the all around finals that they both know will most likely not be enough to catch up to the front-runner and eventual champion Gabby Douglas.
