Bless the man who helped Betty and Mahtob escape.
AMEN
@@LivLovePray-f5oAmen?
He was such a brave man to help.
The man that helped was an Iranian man name Amal who also risked his and his family’s lives to help Betty
They were most probably killed after this movie came out. It wouldn’t have been difficult for her husband to track down these people. I doubt there are many flower shops with connections there. She shouldn’t have given away such sensitive details and endangered those people who have probably helped so many.
Just watched the the last 30-40 mins. Her escape was absolutely nerve wreaking, she's so incredibly strong. All those people that helped her escape bless every single one of them. That man that saved her and walked her thru the desert alone, such a sweetheart. I hope she life was nothing but kind, full of love, pure bliss after coming home. She deserves nothing but good.
@youtubeWAHello, what is going on?
Where can i watch the full vidoe please
Wonderful movie on tubi "not without my daughter" ft Sally field.
@@Mrs.RodarteIt's on prime right now. Idk how long it will be on there. Oldie but goodie. Sally Field did her thing in this movie. My mom had us watch this on Life-time many moons ago. I'm 41. This woman is so brave. I've always wished her, her daughter, and family peace and love. No one should have to go through this. Idc where you're from.
✨🫶🏾 . Watching this so young has always taught me to never give up my passport. ( to include traveling in the world today as well). Sally Field is such a legend. She's one of my favorites actresses. This lady was so brave. ✨✨
Read the book, it was totally different from the movie. This escaped during the Winter.
Every American woman should watch this movie
“Not Without My Daughter.”
Even though this occurred 40 years ago, not much has changed.
We know that Americans and Europeans are angry because we stopped them from stealing our resources
This is a propaganda film to prepare the mind of the western audience for when we are bombed
So that they think they are killing a series of zombies and remain calm
In my opinion, it is better to make a movie about the fate of Canadian
indigenous children buried under Catholic Church schools and Western civilization built on them and call it without my all children
this occurred 40 years ago when Hamas and Hezbollah didn't exist and not much has changed

How do you know that not much has changed?
@@kanui27 I am an Iranian and I live in Iran right now
And despite the bad atmosphere that the media created for Iran, European women still come and go to Iran with their husbands.
Of course, there are not many of them and this is because of the political problems between Iran and the West. Why doesn't anyone ask them about Iran?
Because this movie and other propaganda against Iran is a political project and not a reality
It is simple for you to go to an airport of tourist destinations such as Thailand or Türkiye On flights coming from Iran, women travel alone in female groups without men
And they go to hotels and have fun and come back home
And compare that with the women of Arab countries like Saudi Arabia
It is not possible to see a local Arab woman traveling without a man
This is exactly what the western media is doing, replacing the Iranian woman with a Muslim Arab woman and starting to spread hatred against Iran
No one cares for an Arab womanBut Iranian women are always present in the media
Why is it like this because the Arabs are allies of the West and they do not stop the development of Israel and only Iran does this.
Finding out the truth with the internet is a very simple task, you can ask the American UA-camrs who traveled to Iran
There are women with hijab in Iran and there are women without compelet hijab, but you only see women with hijab
Beti Mahmoudi's story is not pure truth and is part of the Iranophobia project
@@h.t.v9598 Amazing movie and amazing nothing much has changed, they still love their ongoing wars. There is an evil portal allowing demons into that part of the world and the rest of us have to deal with it through prayer.
Yep,she outsmarted him & the family.Sheer true grit! What a woman!
Thank god. Betty is kind, brave and she save her daughter. Her best book 📖🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸
In USA tortured, as adopted orphan, homeless 9xs Left for dead 6xs gulaged numerous times, slave recently, shot checking on wellbeing of woman. Thanks b 2 God I'm still alive, no one helps
Big time, he was outsmarted. Hallelujah!!!
Of course she outsmarted them, they are a primitive minded people and can't think outside the box.
I saw the movie when I was a child and impacted me so much that I never had any romantic relationship with a Muslim man. Ever.
you are smart. i had one and it ruined my life
@@shreyamishra7365me as well :( worst three years of my life
Women must know that in Islam, they have no rights at all.

@@ingridcalderon1994 Really? That's great
My friend in Manchester was married to a Saudi senior lecturer at Manchester University. They had 2 boys aged 9 and 7.He arranged for them to go to Saudi for 2 weeks in the long vacation to see his parents. He seemed to be completely westernised.At the last minute I persuaded her not to go.I took the boys to my sisters in Middleton ,while she waited at home in Salford,until he came back from his office at the University.
She told him that only he and she were going to Saudi.He shouted at her,grabbed his suitcases and went out of the door to a waiting taxi.
She and the boys went to her mother's home near by.Two weeks later she got a phone call .He said " I divorce you" three times.He added ,"I have married a second wife in Saudi,who is now my only wife" My friend found out that he had taken all their assets to Saudi,She had to go to Court to get an English Divorce and the right to sell their home.Amazingly the Court awarded him half the proceeds She had to pay off the mortgage and move in with her mother.All this happened in the 1990s and she has never heard of him from that day to this. It would make a good movie.
Wow some man can be cold hearted..since the 90s has not had any contact with his children🤦🏽♀️
If she writes about these experiences in a book, it could be optioned for a film, tell her that.
Well...you saved her life!
You saved her!
I can’t believe the courts wow
I'm so glad that Betty and Mahtob got out of Iran a long time ago and are living in the USA.
Also all his money was in the us I hope she kept all that money for the trauma that was caused
@@Saleigh She was in debt when she and Mahtob returned because Moody wiped out their bank account and racked up the credit cards during their stay in Iran. The house she and Moody had before leaving for Iran was foreclosed upon. So no, she didn't get any money. All she got was half the marital debts.
I watched the movie a long time ago! I finally read Betty’s book and Mahtob’s book a few years ago! Mahtob’s book corroborated everything her mother has said! It also talks about the steps Betty had take in the US to prevent Mahtob from being kidnapped and returned to Iran! I would highly recommend both books!
What is the name of Mahtob's book
Me too. I have Betty’s book 📖 and Mahtob’s book 📖 👩👧🇺🇸
How can I buy the book???
@@samannjam Mahtob's book is called "My Name Is Mahtob." Both her and Betty's books can be purchased on Amazon and cod also be checked out at the public library.
Did it mention anything about her son? Because in the movie she had a son born in Iran but didn’t take him with her when she ran away is that true?
I just watched the movie and it was so gut wrenching. I can’t imagine the man you’ve loved and the father of your child completely changing and becoming your abuser/kidnapper. I am so glad they made it out of that nightmare💜
The movie was definitely an eye opener and heartbreaking but it didn’t even show most of what Betty and Mahtob went through.
He didn't change. He was always like that but had to watch his behavior in the US.
@@tubecontributor3206You're probably right. He was a fraud.
Yes he was betty found out later some writings of her ex husband..in iranian .she made them.translate by à friend..and...He had planned everthing..even the departure in iran since 1979..he lied about the vacation..the dismissal of the hospital..He wanted to go back in iran but didnt tell betty about this.He waited for a good opportunity..to lie and bring her wife and daughter in iran for ever as he had planned..
.read yesterday on a french page of an interview of Betty in 2013..
I àm french ..sorry..But this story is heartbreaking and mhoody was à fanatic and fascinated by the revolution in iran.
I can guarantee you that Betty does NOT regret escaping Iran with her daughter. She was a VERY brave lady, but she HAD to do it. Because it was the ONLY way she and her daughter were going to good out of THAT country
They were being held against their will, they BOTH wanted to leave but they were NOT allowed to. It was either stay there and die, or escape/ or die trying to. Either way they were going to die. As it turned out, they succeed in escaping and they both outlived their captor. They were free and together.
How do u know a child wanted to escape.
Iran at that time was terrible. I don't even think it has improved much, despite a new Ayatollah and the fact they have cinema.
@@farhadmoshref8016 the child has spoken. Look up her interviews.
@@farhadmoshref8016 uhhhh maybe because the child said she wanted to escape...wtf? 😂
@@farhadmoshref8016 Who would want to stay in that country, insetad of living in America? With an abusive psychopath father? You should read the book and watch the interview with Mahtob who is an adult now.
Blessed all those people who helped her
What kind of fool treats his wife and kid that way. He didn't deserve to be forgiven.
Yeah its cultural
OH Yeh! Nope
@OH Yeh! You mean women and female children? Boys are treated well
That's Islam for you
An Iranian
The movie was a huge eye opener and thank God she's safe
"You're never going to leave Iran"...….that doesn't go over too well to free born American women.
@@lenaknowledgeseeker4304 We sure don't. We fought too hard for us to live the way we want and gain rights to live as equals. So yes we free born sluts don't take well to misogynistic and sexist bull crap. Some of us don't mind ending up on Snapped 🤷🏾💁🏾🤣🗡🔫

I just watched the movie about her and I have to say she is such a good mother and strong woman I don't even know how she coped living in Iran for 2 years and everything he put her through I'm so glad they got out....it's sad to think that there's other women and children being held against their will in other countries
Where you found full movie??
@@ketansonje2262 Its on Tubi for free
If you read the book you see how she had to plan and think and all that. It was very difficult.
With Gods grace they went through
@@nildabridgeman8104 Doubt that a fictional being from a book not even half a million years old should be credited for anything
I've read Not Without My Daughter 12 times and her daughter's book twice so far. Mesmerizing!!!
This movie changed the way I saw history. My summer history credits teacher showed this to us in the summer of 06’ right in the middle of the Iraq war. He said it was for a reason since we’re studying contemporary history and boy was he right. Thank you Mr. McDermott not only did you teach me about many different wars but also economics my senior year.
This movie is so amazing though, everyone should watch it at least once especially since it is free, plus it has Sally Field.
So unbelievable that she was imprisoned there for a whole year in a half. I can’t even begin to imagine the daily tragedy she and her baby went through!!!!!!
This is so sad. As an American, I spent my younger years in Teheran before the revolution. It was a fantastic place, the people were so kind and nice, the food was great, and the country was beautiful. We left before the revolution, so we were lucky. It goes to show you what religion can do to a people. I would love to visit Iran again one day, but never under the present circumstances. I wish the Royal Family would be able to return to Iran and bring peace, prosperity, and kindness back to their country.
Aren't they dead? The Shah died in 1980, for example.
@@sha11235 The crown prince and the empress are still alive.
Yeah. Islam destroys everything.

I watch the movie about them 3 yrs ago, I cried a lot.. I had no idea it was a true story.. but I was already suspecting it was real. What happen to her is common now a days
Me too
No name what’s the name of the movie ?
@@lillily1 "Not without my daughter". I just watched it, it was so sad throughout the movie even though I didn't watch it from beginning. Almost cried... I went to google about it and the true story and here I found your reply to a 2 year old comment.
SavkE thank you I know It’s 2 years old Just saw this video lol
@@lillily1 Ik sometimes i reply to even older :)
Mahtab was a stunning little girl. She actually reminds me of my childhood best friend, her father was from Algeria.
There was an Indian nurse named Sushmita Banerjee, she married an Afghanistani Muslim man, and he took her to Afghanistan, after reaching there she found out that he was already married, he used to have business trips to India, but never took her to her homeland, she somehow managed to escape that hell and reached INDIA, after few years her husband again tricked her to go to Afghanistan, and she died under mysterious circumstances there. She also wrote a book about her escape "Kabuliwale Ki Bangali Biwi".
Hahaha that’s not a good story armpit to armpit same smell
If the husband had really cared for Betty, he would never have taken her away while her father was in the hospital with cancer. What a narcissistic bastard! At least he could have waited until the father died or went into remission.
And Iran was a dangerous warzone. WHO does this to his Child???
If Betty cared for her father, she would have stayed behind with her father. Nobody forced Betty on that plane!
Not just that, but Betty had two other minor children in the U.S. He kept her from her other kids.
@@SpinMeaStory Unbelievable! What a piece of work he was!
@@audreyhuggins8822 She was leaving for 2 weeks. It's not like he was given two weeks left to live before she left.
And yes sick people can pass at anytime, but so can a completely healthy individual.
Wow, I just watched the movie, “not without my daughter.” And I’m shocked! I admire her and her daughter for such strong will of not staying captive and scape!❤
The movie is heavily sanitised compared to the real story.
Just completed reading her book, and I highly recommend it!
I JUST SAW THIS MOVIE 2022 WOW
IM GLAD THERE WERE PEOPLE THERE WHO HELPED HER! GOD BLESS PEOPLE LIKE THAT IN PLACES LIKE THAT!
"Not without my daughter" movie based on this is just amazing based on the book Betty wrote....Must Watch
I am surprised a child that young understood that they had to escape and help
Children arent idiots when the situation is hell they know it and want out
Children can sense evil on almost instinctive level.
Children are smarter than people think.
Her ex husband is pure evil
And dead as a fuckin' doornail.
In hell, burning & rotting.
He's long dead now.
He was raised in his traditions, not supporting him, he did ill, but we need to understand his roots, and do not expect him to say sorry, I’m sure there’s many Iranians who’s amazing people. This whole story is crazy
@@greenforgood1741le problème c'est l islam
For those that believed that the men in the movie, in the mountains, that helped Betty out of kindness, think again. Those were human smugglers. Many people used them to escape Iran from 1979 onwards, and not all of them got out alive. They were paid. I know this story as I knew Betty's friend and learned of Betty's escape and her book that she was just about to release in 1990. Her friend became a TV journalist in Tehran.
She was extremely Blessed and had God watching over her that her and her daughter were not harmed in any way shape or form trying to escape
I watched the movie and read her book. It's a such incredible story!
So do I 😃😃😃😃
"Not Without My Daughter" the movie with Sally Field is based on this story and it's REALLY good.
there is an audio book in spanish, and it's REALLY too good or much more... (to know about their story in Iran, which was a very sad but brave one!)
I just finished reading her book. Now I discovered there is also a movie. wow.
There are many difference between book and movie. You are living all emotions when reading her book. It was unbelievable. So I’m from Turkey. Turkey never been like that before.
The movie is excellent.
So glad to know they managed to escape safely
Always follow your instinct..no matter what it may seem that you know,think or feel..never disregard the gut feelings..it will save you from harm for sure..
I think one of the worst parts is that before they even went to Iran, Betty had secretly investigated her options. She was told that if she and Mahtob didn't go to Iran willingly, Moody might kidnap Mahtob, take her to Iran, and then divorce Betty. And if that happened, Betty would never see Mahtob again. She made the choice to go so that if the worst happened (and it did) at least she would be there with her daughter.
Between a rock and a hard place for sure. Peace be upon them
D*ck is more important than instincts
I saw this movie when I was a little girl and it stuck with me forever tbh now I have a daughter of my own and it’s even more fucking amazing that she made it
such an evil , family of evil .
thank God for protecting betty and her daughter 😢
She is such an inspiration ❤️ what they went through was awful
I would have been paranoid, thinking that the people helping were telling the husband.
in the book it says just what you thought...she was terrified , at first, that the people trying to help her would rat her out but slowly she trusted more and more. She met with the kindly shop owner multiple times before actually officializing her escape plans. And also, some of the people that said they were there to help her later, along the way, i think they were called 'guides' or somethng, one robbed her and another actually tried to rape her during the night on part of their foot journey. Wow, so intense!
There are so many Betty's who got stuck.
It's already a red flag that he dated and married a former patient. To have led to this is insane. my mum was an interpreter in Turkey for ladies from UK who's kids were kidnapped and taken there by their fathers. She was on a TV show about it on itv. It can be a real danger having children with people from ethnicities and backgrounds like this. Everything is fine as long as you get along. If you step out of line you're screwed. Not disimilar to those married to cult members etc.
Yes you are right it is tribal law
A mother will fight to the death for her children! While not as hostile as an Islamic, I married a guy who ended up being in a very cult like religion and it left me homeless. Be careful who you marry! You may think you know them but you don’t.
Verdade.
My sister , mother and myself went to visit family in Italy , my sister 23 , fell in love with an Italian while we visited Italy , she married him and she moved to Italy.He was a smooth romantic Italian , then when things in their marriage started to sour , he beat my sister .many people said that could happen with any nationality .The problem is that , when she called the Italian police , the police took his side because she was the American . The point is like you mentioned , be careful who you marry .
@@josephforest7605true it can happen with any nationality but the most cases reported have been with women marrying Muslim men without knowing exactly the culture and thereby getting in trouble.
She was so strong to continue to try to escape only with her daughter despite her fear and setbacks.
Unfortunately Betty's story is typical for Westerners who marry Muslim men and travel to Muslim countries.
They have a different culture, strict rules, and pitiful human rights.
If you aren't like them, stay away.
mey roc my friends mom is a white American and his dad is Jordanian, and she loves her life right now..
So true
Betty wrote a second book about helping other absent parents, whose child/children had been kidnapped , get their child/children back. One of the victims was a man, whose children were taken to Germany. The first muslim country to sign the UN declaration on children's rights was Algeria.
What you call "human rights" is humor in that culture because nobody really follows......
@@sheilanixon913what is bad about Germany
If I was from Iran, I think the only reason I would have to stay there is to help people in similar situations as Betty’s
i cant imagine the relieve this woman was feeling when she finnaly knew that she andh er daughter were safe, i lived in a muslim country also for a time, as a guy tho, yet it still did serious damage to me, emotionally, and physical
I felt sorry for the people of Iran too. They only know how to hate. I’m so glad they escaped from that awful place.
Iran is great lmao
Iranian people feel sorry for a hoard of Bible basher. They don't need your sympathy.
Salty
And I’m sorry for you that you judged the entire Iranian people by just one family!
@@monamiri2187 Not by just one family. We do read and research. I know that there are people there, who do not surround to the terrible religoius regim, and victims themselves as well, but the current situation shows that unfortunately no positive development can be seen.
As an Iraqian I love American for helping us with war. We iraqian don’t hate Iranian but we never understood why the Iranian wanted war with us. Because of that thanks to American they helped us ❤❤❤❤
It was Saddam who waged war against Iran, backed up by America
I watched this movie in 1991, one week before my muslim man told me that if I ever got pregnant, he'd ship me off to his father in Lebanon ... that was the start of me planning my exit.
Ahhhh 💔💔 Arab women have to deal with this kind of men all the time .
noobien plays it’s not a completely different region it’s the same region ( Middle East ) but it’s culturally very different
I am so sorry for them!
They birth and raise them they should raise and birth better men
Im glad you both got out. Thank God
Any culture that treats women differently than men is suspect.
Genesis 3:15 -
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Laura Keys amen 🙏🏼
If I had been the ticketing agent there’s no way I’d have sold any American citizen a flight to Iran at that time.
Boa noite.Eu também não venderia,sem antes perguntar a ela se sabia tudo que poderia lhe acontecer no Irã.Deixaria ela ciente dos riscos.🤚🇧🇷
Right
You didn’t go straight to Iran from the U.S. You had (and still have) to go through somewhere in Europe or Turkey. Plus, he wasn’t an American citizen. Because he was Iranian, she was Iranian by default as his wife and so was his daughter according to Iran’s laws.
I've read the book "My Name Is Mahtob" by her daughter. Very insightful.
I'm happy😊 for them .They made it back to the United States in one piece.
Me too. 😊🇺🇸👩👧
The book is so captivating ❤
I saw the movie and omg it was amazing and shocking how women in that time lived in that kind of situation.
People love to blame the Dad only... This terrible experience would not have been as terrible, long and dangerous if there wasn't a mass of people validating and backing this ideology. Everyone pretends the Dad was the bad apple... Then why wasn't he arrested or dissuaded by other Iranians? Why wasn't the mother and the daughter allowed to go back to the U.S.??
It wasn't just the father. It was a large large portion of people and laws.
I'm happy she was able to leave Iran and made it safely this story touched my heart and I'm happy they caught that man who murdered his teen daughters he was from Egypt he had been on the run for 12 years this why I pay attention to laws and warnings of other countries glad people helped her escape
I’ve seen the movie about this story a few times and it impacted me every time.
@youtubeWAcontact Betty's organisation
Burning our flag? What t he hell do they get out of that??? It's childish and stupid.
Because to them America is the great Satan we are the infidel to them. People really don't understand the islamic countries hatred for the west and America
@@squigglyline6488 America had part in destroying middle eastern countries that’s why 😂
I saw his documentary as well. And what is clear is that he chose Iran over everything else and held out hope that he would reconnect with his daughter again. What bothered me most was that he was willing to take his family back to his war torn homeland and that her father was dying of cancer as well. Like for real? You really think this is the best time? He said he wanted to help because they were in desperate need of doctors. He could have left alone if he was that committed.
Apparently for his portrayal of Mahmoody in not without my daughter Alfred molina was assaulted after being mistaken for Mahmoody. For those who don’t know who Alfred molina is he played doctor octopus in Spider-Man 2
I read that in Wikipedia. That's a fascinating story, but disgusting due to the other person's behaviour.
People meaning well but act idiotically are the most dangerous.
My heart goes out for this lady . She survived such horror.
I was married to an Iranian for 14 years. He was not like this guy but a big flirt with other women. I had enough. Divorced him.by the way I never wanted to go to Iran for any visits with his family!

This is the real true story about the movie "Not Without My Daughter "
I was surprised that Betty actually called Moody just after she left.
She had to give him some hope that they'd meet up. If she didn't the cops would have been out everywhere looking for them
It was part of the escape,
was a way to take some more time to get closer to the border..
She had to. It was part of the escape plan.
Her Escape plan with her daughter from Iran. They made it U.S. Embassy in Turkey. Back to America. I’m so proud of Betty and Mahtob. 🥲 Betty has divorced evil ex Iranian husband in 1989. 🇺🇸
I saw this as a lifetime movie
Before the Islamic Revolution, Iran was a beautiful country to live in
I find it amazing that they even have film-making there.

Oh mannn… I am gradually falling in love with an Iranian man… but I changed my mind after watching not without my daughter. Terrifying
You made the right decision. Forget him.
I find it hard to believe she was that naive about going to Iran during such a tumultuous time.
I am just glad they are safe now.
My girlfriend was dating a Turkish guy in the 90’s. After reading Not without my daughter she got so scared, broke up with him and reconnected with her ex boyfriend…
😢
turkey is different tho, even tho the majority of the population is muslim turkey has a secular constitution
These guys with muslim background are not to be trusted, no matter where did they come from.
very right decision. thanks God she's save now
they are the same, all of them
Although turkey was the country where she was safe and went home from there 😂 the film was endet when she arrived in turkey so... what could that mean? 👀
I watched the movie many times! So sad. I'm happy they found a way back.
I am sorry for Muslim women living in a fear. that religion is rotten to the core.
just finished reading the book..too scary to be a true story
Sana, there are lots of women trapped in horrible situations. It's a true story.
You really think that things like this don’t happen? You are very naive
Because it's all lies.
Levi's Mommy Not everyone in islam are horrible people. Also kind muslims helped Betty and her daughter to escape from iran.
Its true, and her daughter has written her own book. Very interesting
we watched the movie in history and seeing this i’m so shocked on how accurate it was
Why would you watch this kind of movie in history?!
Why not watch it in history?
When the truth is told, there’s no reason to be lying about it.
Wooow! What an ordeal for this woman. Thank the Lord her faith kept her going.
Every woman should watch this movie before falling for any muslim man
I married with Iranian guy , But I didn't experience any bad treatments from my husband and families . We have one son. We visited them on and off . My husband passed away after 35 years together ag. My son already married with his cousin. We are living in U.A.E.Alhamdulillah
I guess this is because ur a Muslim Betty was not a Muslim I guess...she doesn't have any idea of ur religion
Mahtob is finally go see her grandpa (Betty’s dad) since he was dying
Betty gave her daughter the biggest gift - her love, her freedom, and to live a own life as a woman without beeing forced in a ugly forced child marriage, honour killing, without any own rights to do and to choose her own style of working, living, clothing - what danger it is for a woman to choose her own way in iran in 2022 shows the example of a young woman - who was murdered a few days ago because she did not wear her tschador "correktly" , she dared to leave a few hairs open under her cover.....beaten to death from iranian police.....can anyone tell me that this is "normal" in any way? Betty took a big risk and I believe without any help she would not have made it back to USA at all
Unbelievable how modern and cool Iran was before 1979. They blew it big time.
Back to the stone ages, just like Afghanistan's doing this week.
Only 1 percent of population the rest were slaves
The fact that men actually help these women makes me know; we are good it's just not all good is instantly visible, and some people can never be saved from being awful.
It was 1984 that Moody took them there. 1986 was when they escaped his wrath and that shit country. And 2009 was when Moody died and went to hell.

@@LaRoche_ That’s his side. It’s all lies since his own daughter told her own story in the book, My Name is Mahtob
Anyway, the monster is dead and gone
"I swear to the Quran we'll be back in two weeks"
To bad she didn't realize then the Quran allows one to lie and decieve.
Itheman123456789 that is lies
it definitely is! its called taqiya and its allowed by sharia to deceive the infidels
@@yassinebali4738 stop talking out of your asshole! It's only in the shia belief about the lie. it's not in sharia law!
Lena knowledge seeker NOT TRUE!! Muslims are allowed to lie if they believe the outcome is justified!!! Ive studied the Hadith and The Quran. You are wrong Lena
Itheman123456789 so true. Its a horrible religion
Would be awesome if Betty stayed in touch with Amal all these years.
The Movie was great
