From Saudi Arabia, Tara Umm Omar shares [1] the story of a Saudi female reporter who has decided to leave her country to be with her Canadian husband. “Hassna'a will go to Canada where she is not oppressed in regards to her marriage. Isn't it such a shame that a Muslim country does not accept her and her husband's marriage but a non-Muslim country does?” she writes.
