Video - Saudi Sports Commentator Fahd Al-Raoughui: I'd Rather Have Allah Slaughter Me Than See Saudi Women at the Olympic Games.
Interviewer: Do you support the participation of women in the Olympic Games?
Fahd Al-Raoughui: Are you talking about Saudi women?
Interviewer: Of course.
Fahd Al-Raoughui: No. Woe betide whoever supports this.
Interviewer: And what if they abide by the religious restrictions?
Fahd Al-Raoughui: What religious restrictions?! These women will mix with strangers... A woman’s beauty lies in her chastity, and in how she raises her children in the private kingdom of her home.
Fahd Al-Raoughui: Women may practice sports in accordance with the religious restrictions. However, if a woman goes to the West, wears pants, mixes with strangers, practices sports, and exposes her nakedness... we may turn ourselves into laughing stocks, but I personally would much rather have Allah slaughter me before I see that day.Source: Memri.
