Nouhaila Benzina Becomes First Player To Wear Hijab At World Cup by DaveHarry(m): 7:32am On Jul 30, 2023
Morocco defender Nouhaila Benzina has made history by becoming the first player to wear a hijab at a World Cup.

The 25-year-old wore the Islamic headscarf as she made her first appearance at the tournament in her side's 1-0 win over South Korea.

The wearing of head coverings for religious reasons was authorised by Fifa in 2014.

Morocco are one of eight teams making their debut at this summer's Women's World Cup.


Benzina, who plays her club football in Morocco, is the first player to wear a hijab at a senior women's international tournament.

She was an unused substitute during her country's opening game against Germany, which they lost 6-0.

And those guys in the north thinking they're more Moslem than the Arabs are limiting their women to embrace sports.

In Nigeria, a northerner don't suppose to head anything sports related because they believe women don't suppose to participate in sports.

NFF president, minister of sports and youth development aren't supposed to be headed by any northern Muslims in Nigeria

You don't make someone head of sports commission when his faith made him believes women are not supposed to participate in sports.

What most people don't understand about those Islamic faithfuls is their subtle way of dominating.

As time goes on, they will clamour for another weird thing. Gradually, they take over the world of football and they establish their Islamic rules to govern the football.

Great and amazing

Clothing and covering unclothedness is the natural instincts of man. Earliest human covered themselves with leaves and animals skin. Honor should be given to the real humans who adhere to humanistic behavior

Muslim women are the most beautiful 😍❤️ and honored dressed. As against the naked civilization we live in


Beautiful Muslim women 💕😘😘💕💕💕

If Islam forbids women's participation in social/public activities, let it remain so.
Why participate and dress inappropriately?
Islam today is full of confusion.

That doesn't change the fact that she's a terrorist in disguise.

Mad Jesus is a bloody terrorist

1 Samuel 15vs 3:

Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle ...

Do not think that I have come to bring peace on the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but. a sword

“But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.”
