What do Arab women bathe in? What Muslim women bathe in (an unexpected discovery) Stylish Arab girls

The one who thinks that all Arab girls are enslaved individuals, wrapped from head to toe in a veil and obeying the whims of a despot husband, is mistaken. In fact, everything is not so, and now you will see it.

The most beautiful Arab girls

Meet Afef Jnifen - model and TV presenter from Tunisia. Possessing strong character and the desire for independence, she ignored the standards of society and went to study in Switzerland. This was followed by a move to Paris, where she was offered to become a model. The work gave her an invaluable gift - the opportunity to travel. But for her it turned out to be Italy, where she lives to this day.

French dancer of Algerian origin Amelia Zidane. This beauty is not only in the TOP 5 belly dancers in the world, but is also the first dancer to appear on the cover of a gloss without being a model.

The real sex symbol of the Middle East comes from Lebanon. From childhood, the girl was pretty and incredibly talented. At 16, she won the Miss Lebanon pageant. By the age of 20, she began to decorate the covers of fashion glossies, and in 2002 her career as a singer began. At 18, she gave birth to a daughter, and in 2009 she became a grandmother.

Nancy Ajram - famous singer originally from Beirut. She released her first album at the age of 15, and at 17 she joined the list of professional artists in Lebanon. But she won fans not only with her sweet voice, but also with an interesting appearance: a brunette with bright blue eyes.

Stylish arab girls

Wife and mother of the heir. She is considered one of the stylish women of the Islamic world, and this is not surprising. The wardrobe of the Moroccan princess is filled with evening dresses with traditional patterns and embroidered precious stones. At social events, she looks like a sultana from the movie "Magnificent Age".

Dina Abdulaziz is a slender and incredibly beautiful brunette, mother of three children and wife of a prince Saudi Arabia. For a long time Dina and her husband lived in New York, and it was there that she formed the opinion that Arab girls can also choose what to wear.

By the way, in the summer of 2016, Dina Abdulaziz became the chief editor of the fashion magazine Vogue Arabia.

Hijab and oriental girls

Arab girls in hijab are a separate category of oriental beauty. As the proverb says: "The wife is the rose of the house." Therefore, in Islam female beauty should be hidden from prying eyes.

See how beautiful Arab girls look (photos below) in a hijab.

And if a young girl is still allowed to be uncovered, then for married women the absence of a hijab is unforgivable. Today, this traditional dress is mandatory in Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan. And in countries such as Tajikistan, Turkey and Tunisia, wearing the hijab in public institutions and educational institutions forbidden.

Myths about the appearance of Arab girls

Many people believe that Arabs (without exception) are black-haired, with dark skin and black eyes, and all Arab girls are plump and with curly hair. But this is not so, because most of them are very similar to Europeans, but they have an oriental twist.

The Middle East is actually a place of mixing of three races: African, European and Asian. Describing the Arab world, it should be noted that it is diverse. For example, in Syria, Lebanon and Algeria, the skin of the population ranges from light milky to chocolate, and in Sudan, beige and olive shades are very common.

Eyes are the highlight that all Arab girls have. Photos of the bewitching views presented in this article are proof of this. The shade of the eyes is from bright blue to black, the figure of oriental beauties resembles a guitar, and hair is not only dark shades.

Arab girls know a lot about natural beauty and cosmetics. That is why many beauty secrets of Eastern women deserve special attention:

  • Argan oil is the number 1 product in the box of Arab beauties. It is applied to pure form face, eyelashes, eyebrows and hair.
  • Amla extract is a miracle remedy for rapid hair growth. You can use both powder and oil.
  • Rose water is a wonderful refreshing facial tonic that can replace the micellar water familiar to many women.
  • Turmeric is the basis of face masks. To prepare, mix 2 tbsp. l. milk and the same amount of rose water, a pinch of turmeric and 50 g of flour.

The most stylish and powerful woman in the Arab world

Her way of dressing shocked United Arab Emirates. Girls living in Islamic states admire her beauty, style and strong character. It is not surprising, because the former mayor of Qatar allowed his wife not only to remove the hijab, but also to participate in public affairs.

Meet Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Minsed - mother of 7 children, one of the most stylish first ladies in the world and a public figure.

Having met her future husband at the age of 18, she was in no hurry to catch her luck by the tail, but first entered the university, underwent an internship at prestigious universities America and only then got married.

In her images there is no hint of the true "fashion of Qatar", where women are dressed in abayas and wear headscarves. On rare occasions, Moza may appear wearing pants, but she always wears a stylish turban on her head.

Now she is 59 years old, and you must admit that she looks amazing, and this once again emphasizes that Arab girls (photo confirms this) can also look stylish and beautiful. However, there are rumors that in order to preserve her youth, Sheikha Moza underwent 12 plastic surgery and spent about two million dollars. And those who have ever dealt with her foundation admire not only her appearance, but also with determination, perseverance, authority and incredible ability to work.

Style is the main weapon against stereotypes

These Arab girls and women challenged their traditions and became trendsetters, founders of their own brands and designers. No, we are not talking about representatives of Europe or America. A story about modern beautiful women East.

Numbering 350-450 million people.
The ancestors of modern Arabs since ancient times inhabited the territory of the Arabian Peninsula. In the 7th century AD. As a result of the activities of the Prophet Muhammad, the Arab tribes united and adopted Islam. After the death of the prophet, his successors, caliphs, conquered significant territories in Asia, North Africa and Europe (Spain). Several centuries later, the Arabs were completely expelled from Spain, and in North Africa and the Middle East, mingling with the local population, they formed the Arab world, which, thanks to the unity of language and religion, still exists. American researcher Michael Hart called the Prophet Muhammad the most influential person in the history of mankind, because he not only created a new world religion, but also founded the state that led to the existence of the modern Arab world.
In North Africa, the Arabs clashed with local tribes - the Berbers, who converted to Islam and the Arabic language, but still retain the Berber languages ​​​​and ethnic identity. The population of these countries North Africa, like Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, are called Arab-Berbers, i.e. Berbers in origin, but Arabs in culture, and often in self-identification.

I really wanted to tell more about people, about Egyptian families
The hotel where I last stayed had quite a few Egyptian and international families. I had never been so close to them before. And this time there was an opportunity to observe people from the outside, their relationships and attitude towards children.
Egyptian kids are very cute, especially those from mixed marriages. And there are many of them in Egypt!
Children are very independent in most cases. Parents treat them very reverently and tenderly. By the way, I noticed that the Egyptians treat not only their children with great tenderness, but also strangers. Especially men! (We practically don't see such undisguised love for children from men!) Children are allowed everything - they learn the world around them on their own. At the same time, parents carefully monitor them, but come to the rescue only in extreme situations. Attitude towards children is very even, calm, gentle and tactful. I have never seen anyone yell at the child and, moreover, raise his hand to him.
Children in Egyptian families are very musical, rhythmic and plastic. From birth, they move perfectly to the beat of music. No wonder Arabs are such wonderful dancers!

So the beach

Here is a photo of a charming mixed family: HE is an Egyptian, SHE is an Italian and their two charming daughters. A family came from England, where they live permanently. Two more adults are HER compatriots, perhaps even relatives - from Italy. I sunbathed with this family on the beach for several days and admired everyone. And the kids just won me over.

But arab families. This is a city beach. Here all the rules of behavior of Arab women among strangers are observed.

like this arab women sunbathing on the beach

and this is how Arab families bathe:

men and boys go to swim further into the sea, and women with children sit in shallow water. Moreover, Arab women bathe in special clothes.

Here is a characteristic bathing suit of an Arab woman: pantaloons (or even a whole one-piece suit of trousers and a jacket - with long sleeves, similar to divers), without fail a dress (about knee-length long) made of light fabric that dries quickly and does not stick to the body , does not fit it; necessarily a scarf that covers the hair.

Quite often you can see that Arab women do not bathe at all. They enter the water only with their feet and watch the bathing children.
I met this woman in the veil later in the shower. She bathed the children there fresh water. She didn’t take off her burqa, but opened her face a little. A very young and pretty woman. At my smile and praise of her children, she smiled very friendly at me in return.
And on the beach, only her eyes were visible through a small slit in the scarf....

If you don’t know what you will be sunbathing and swimming in a Muslim country - do it like the citizens of the most conservative country, Saudi Arabia! You will be very surprised, but these are not photographs of liberated Europeans, but of the most Saudis and Jordanians, taken in a hotel located just 3 km from the border of Jordan and Saudi Arabia.

Where are the diving hijabs, where are the closed bathing suits and jeans?? While girls from the Caucasus compete in chastity and cover the last parts of their pale bodies from prying eyes, their competitors from the homeland of the Prophet Muhammad are not very shy, choosing the style ""the smaller the swimsuit, the better"".

2.

Sometimes it is possible with great difficulty - it is very difficult to shove liters of silicone under a small area of ​​\u200b\u200bmatter.
3.

Separate bathing? - just not for conservative Muslims! Allah created men and women, ordered them to get acquainted and love each other, so that even more little pretty Muslims would be born, and they would eventually populate the entire planet. And who are we to argue with the Almighty?! We need to fulfill the birth plan.
4.

As for pleasant acquaintances in a Muslim hotel, do not hesitate - everything here is the same as with us. As soon as I appeared at the pool and took a swim, this woman literally began to bore her eyes, so much so that I had to do my legs.
5.

Jacuzzi - the best place for such things. Again, no screaming children and all sorts of prejudices - they say, I don’t swim in the same font with strangers.
6.

Here hovering over the jacuzzi is an amazing man, the heir to King Kong. He is waiting for someone to join. Gray hair in the beard ... hmm ... and also in the back, in the arms and legs, and then all over the body - a demon in the rib.
7.

I didn't have to wait long, after 10 minutes he was spudding the first lonely Arab woman that came across. In his place, I would not be too capricious either ...
8.

On the beach by the sea the same picture. Puffy Arab women are not particularly shy, and this does not soar for anyone. It is all the more incomprehensible why ours, who choose more modest clothes for trips, are soaring? Before the trip to Jordan, the question "what can you walk in and what can you swim in?" was the most popular. And I always answer it: be yourself, dress as usual. You are tourists, you can do almost everything. Shorts, T-shirts, ordinary human swimwear. It’s not Rio here, mini-bikinis and conditional shorts will not work, but you will meet such people very infrequently on our beaches.
9.

Of course, there is a part of the population that adheres to more strict rules. In any hotel or on the beach you will see "divers" bathing in clothes. But they do not impose their choice on anyone. Sometimes bathing in clothes is connected with religious reasons, sometimes with unwillingness to sunbathe. This is very common among Asians. If your skin is dark, then you are poor and work in the field. The bleaching industry is making billions there.
