Leave Sabya alone

Now some of the bloggers left all the serious problems in Egypt and are talking about the racist beauty salon and cafe of Sabya

In case of not knowing what is the story of Sabya

well simply it is a cafe and beauty salon for veiled ladies and ladies who wear Naqab only

No Muslim unveiled ladies are allowed and by logic Christian women are not allowed too

Already in this cafe and beauty centre , there will be no music or films played ,only related stuff regarding religion "Islam" and cartoons !!

and since then it became a discrimination to the Christian girls and someone called it unconstitutional and another one wanted the police to shut down the place !! Not mention to punish its owners whom I will speak about later

Look this is too much , people you give to the matter more than its original size

Logically if they do not welcome Muslim unveiled ladies ,they won't welcome Christian ladies and if it is targeted to the veiled ladies and ladies who wear Naqab then for sure it is made to respect their privacy so much according to their religious believes and wants.

NOW let's speak with more logic here

Who are the owners of Sabya ??

Hanan Turk , the famous star who quitted the showbiz altogether after wearing the veil and Maha El-Saghir .

Maha Sagheer is an AUC graduate ,daughter of Egypt no.1 hair dresser Mohammed Sagheer, the wife of Ahmed El-Sakka,the famous cinema star and a close friend to Turk , Maha I think was wearing the veil ,yet the last image I saw it for her in a wedding was without it !!

Hanan before wearing the veil was the from the most famous leading actresses in Egypt beside her showbiz career she owns a children magazine called Nona , I do not think it is that successful despite there are many talented Egyptian cartoonists work in it , of course it is hard to compete with Mickey magazine and Bolbol magazine ,not to mention the high prices of the Children magazines in the first place

Hanan presents the religious part in the deal where as the Sagheer is entering the project by her father expertise in beauty centres in Egypt

Whom are they targeting ??

The veil women and women whom wear Naqab who want a maximum privacy due to their religious believes whom are very conservative that they do not want music or films in the TV or in the background and welcome religious lessons .

in Egypt already this won't be the first beauty salon for veiled ladies ,already most hair dressers now due to the increase veiled ladies and girls they open a section and even complete branches for them where they are served by women only with complete privacy and security that no man would see them , so it is not a new thing except for the following :

• No music or films
• No Christian girls allowed

Judging from the name of Sagheer in it I think it made for Class A ,the upper class and upper middle class

I am sorry but it is not the only beauty salon in Egypt ,there are thousands of beauty salons and cafes in Egypt for every lady to go as simple as that , already it is targeting a specific segment with specific need ,a market niche in the marketing language ,they do not want the other segments and they do not intend to insult others

I mean when women only beaches in Marina were opened did any of the men considered it as discrimination !!?? When Sport clubs in Egypt make a special day for women did they consider it as discrimination ??

Already I do not know how they would have a beauty salon with all what is done in it and have religious lessons or Quran in the background in the sound system , I feel that this is a disrespect to religion in the first place !!

Now with my all respect did all the women's problem in Egypt finish so we would speak about Sabya and how it threat the unity of the Egyptian people !!??

How many women now can afford to go to a beauty salon or a hair dresser in the first place in Egypt now not in Cairo or Alexandria ?? Sabya is in Cairo , this is a Cairo rich luxury problem , go to the deep problems of the Ladies whether they are Muslims or Christians in Cairo or outside and mostly outside it

There are many villages now in Egypt with no water , clean water , there are many mothers in Egypt who see their kids die day by day while they can't afford medicine for them and you are speaking about a beauty salon for the fancy ladies

I swear the Christian ladies got other problems to care about more then a single beauty salon in Cairo that does not welcome them
