Announcement: Muslim Girl As New X - Men character!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_(comics)

Dust (real name Sooraya Qadir) is a fictional character, a mutant in the Marvel Universe. She is one of the student body in the Xavier Institute, and a member of the Hellions squad therein.

Dust first appeared in New X-Men #133 (2002). She was created by Grant Morrison and Ethan Van Sciver, though it wasn't until she appeared in the New X-Men: Academy X series, written by Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir, that her character was truly developed.

Dust is an adolescent Sunni Muslim who possesses the mutant power to turn herself into a sand-like substance. Born in Afghanistan, she was rescued by the X-Men's Wolverine from a slave-trading ring and sent to the Xavier Institute in Westchester County, New York. Quiet and nervous, she has experienced difficulty adapting to her new surroundings - particularly after being given the loud and rebellious Surge as a roommate. She is currently a member of the Hellions squad.
[edit]

Powers

Dust can turn herself into a cloud of a sand-like substance, and (under normal circumstances) control where this cloud goes, before reforming at will. At times she can move so fast in the dust form that she can strip the flesh from her enemys bones.

Re: Announcement: Muslim Girl As New X - Men character!

what the.... thats not right
 
Just out of curiosity - why don't some of you think it's right.

The character doesnt really exist, and it's defaming Islam at all. Rather it's probably giving a positive view on the hijab - one that most people who read the comics otherwise wouldn't have gotten.

It's nothing huge, just a small character in a small comic. But at least its positive.

Well making images which are animated and repersent people is haraam.
 
true @ islam-truth

even one site i saw Hamza the Muslim Kid and I was wondering "how can this animated kid spread Islam when its against the teachings of Islam"

Allah knows best - he guides people in anyway he wants

Ah, thas a good point. I didn't think about it like that.

I know theres a difference of opinion about drawing, but to error on the side of caution is better I guess.

On the other hand, it's not muslims who are drawing or animating. These comics are gnna be around regardless, a strong muslim niqaabi in one of them is still a form of dawah.

I see where your coming from, but remeber a sin is a sin no matter how good the intention.
 
:wasalamex


I got a strong feeling shes going to start off with a abaya/burka and be proper modest.. and gradually they'll make her more westernized and she'll be open infront of men and everything.


You ask why they may have done it - and its obvious they've made a muslim character so the muslims view it and then get affected by it. And theres probably going to be a bad influence on the muslims through this..

I personally dont like the idea..


wa Allaahu a'lam.

I think it's a flippin' miracle to have a couple of non-Muslim dudes creating this devout female Muslim character, who wears the burqa for all the right reasons. If nothing else, it educates comic book readers on the true reasons for this particular Islamic ruling, rather than the negative media hype from the likes of Fox News.

I don't think they'd change the character's dress code so she's more 'Western'. It doesn't fit with the ethos of the 'X-Men' stories, which is acceptance.
 
Assalamu Alaikum

Her "islamic" outfit, seems a bit tight and body forming
and she kinda looks evil...
and adding to what bro fi sabilillah said, she might go through some freaky stuff, which wud make her viewed as evil or something,

and then again they might make ppl's views a bit lighter upon the Islamic world,

either way its going to brew some curiousity about Islam

allahu 'alem

fi aman Allah
w'salaam
