"Women Can't lead"

I had a discussion with my teacher about women leaders and why can’t Arab countries have a woman president.

My teacher's response:

Arabs always think that a woman can’t lead”.

What I understood from that is that women are under-estimated, and due to laws and culture women are not permitted to be apart of the constitution in the Arab world.

Women can, & should be leaders of countries, and women are not-less of a person than a man is. And you can be surprised by what the future can come you with.

The American/British constitution allows women to run for president…
Why can’t Arabs do so too?

Do you agree with the quote? Why?

[Lecture] Mohammad PBUH: The Perfect leadership role-model

I was watching Tariq Al-Suwaidan's lecture the subject was LEADERSHIP & SUCCESS. I found it inspiring and the way he explains himself and talks is amazing it just makes you drop whatever you were doing and just.. Listen! Yes, that's how good he is (Well to me, to say the least!).

Anyways, he talked about how Mohammad PBUH was a great leader and the way he planned everything out from wars to the very little things in his own home was very well thought out, rational & simply great!

Al-Suwaidan also mentioned the character that a leader should have is Patience which is a very important component; without it, you wouldn't be a leader, you would be more of a bully, eh?

My thoughts:
Leadership is NOT something you own, it's something you develop in time. If you're determined and stubborn when it comes to doing the right thing, and only that, it'll help you along the way.

No leader wants to be that one person who's afraid to take risks and only closed to certain things.. Maybe that's the thrill, right? Making new, different discussions that you've never done and in the end, it turns out pretty well.

Having the power when it comes to doing whatever you want to do doesn't mean you can take advantage of it. It's not only you you'll be harming if something goes wrong but other people who followed you, your believers.. And trust me, you do not want to dissapoint them, whoever they might be.

School, sucks.. Well, the studying part does! .. ADMIT IT.


Ever been nervous? Like literary! Nothing could calm you down unless it's that one person. Well, yes, this is one of those days; I cannot believe school's 3 days away & counting..

Everything will be SO different, I'm sure. I'm not the person I was 5 months ago I'm someone else, someone better, more mature & I understand the world better; I know I have a long way to go but I feel like I know so much and it's still not enough though I'm not looking forward for new experiences and a completely new school year.

I'm not denying the fact that I miss everyone I know from school but, I'm not open to the fact of waking up at 5 am, get ready, be in school by 7 am and study all day.

[Yeah, I know, the title.. I. Like. It.]
