Saudi Arabia, the Land of the Two Holy Mosques, has hosted an event to celebrate the once-banned festival of Halloween. This is an undeniable victory for the neoliberal agenda in the heart of the Islamic world.
Dubbed the “Scary Weekend” which took place on Thursday and Friday in Riyadh’s Boulevard, revellers dressed up in scary costumes and fancy dress and posed for pictures which have been widely shared on social media. The event was held as part of the ongoing Riyadh Season in the Saudi capital.
The Saudi capital, looked like creatures from a haunted house had escaped and taken over the city. Monsters, witches, bank robbers and even sultry French maids were everywhere, leaning out of car windows and lounging in cafes.
“Saudi is changing,” said Abdulaziz Khaled, 23, a finance student awaiting his turn in line. Switching seamlessly midsentence between Arabic and English, Mr. Khaled said he planned to dress up as a wizard this year.
Waiting beside him, Reema al-Jaber, also 23, and sporting caramel-blond bangs, wanted to go as a white-winged angel for a gathering at a friend’s house. “But I could be a black angel,” she fretted. “We have to see what they have in stock!”
It is not surprising that celebrations have drawn criticism from many Muslim social media users over permitting once-banned non-Muslim festivals, while others have accused Saudi Arabia’s religious establishment of having double standards by not permitting the celebrations of the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) birthday, known as Al Mawlid.

Imagine a country that forbids the commemoration of the Prophet ﷺ because it is more evil than celebrating Halloween… pic.twitter.com/gulK99yO8q
In 2016, Prince Mohammed announced an economic diversification plan that called for turning the kingdom into an investment powerhouse and global business hub.
The current changes were welcomed with delight by the nourished Saudi youth. Many young Saudis grew up on Western culture, have a Western education, and have spent a long time in the United States, the EU, and the British Commonwealth. They no longer perceive traditional Saudi culture as their own.
However, while they rejoice in the changes on the streets of Riyadh, they forget that the world is also changing. The new neoliberal order is no longer the absolute fate of the World. The peoples of the Earth are waking up and looking around for other cultural pillars. Islam is certainly one of these pillars, and a conservative one at that.
If the political leadership of Saudi Arabia thinks that in this way, step by step, in the best traditions of the “Overton Window,” they can change Islam, they are very much mistaken. They can change a part of their local society, but not the religion.
The Islamic Ummah has long been wary of developments in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf monarchies. It is highly likely that if the trend continues, yes, Islam will change, but in a way where the centers of the Muslim world will be Turkey, Iran and Russia, while Saudi Arabia will be perceived as a territory temporarily occupied by unfaithfuls.

“of having double standards by not permitting the celebrations of the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) birthday”
I suggest we celebrate this birthday worldwide as “Day of Pedophiles”, remembering all those historical figures who copulated with 8-year old children or other non-adults.
Women’s structure at 8 years old back then was like some 18yo women nowadays. the delayed marriage age that we suffer nowadays in society is due to the challenges imposed by the liberal establishment. The same satanic establishment that calls for lgbt rights, abortion right, alcohols, and many other satanic practices that benefit the rich elites. And if you don’t know, Muslims are the most people who sacrificed and still sacrifices against the global liberal agenda. If you don’t believe me, then come to some Muslim society and try to abuse a child and see what happens to you, you will be vaporized (literally) before police can come and save a piece of you.
Infidel’s children are ok to abuse. There are many examples of that in England in recent times.
Why him only? We got Jewish people sucking newborn children, we got catholic church sexual abuse cases dating back to when you were a cum.
Kiddo, if you hate Muslims try to shit on other things they do, South Africa, the United States, Thailand, Cambodia, India, Brazil, and Mexico have been identified as leading hotspots of child sexual exploitation. Also, child victim ages have been found in Cambodia, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Thailand to range from 6 to 11 years old, followed by 12 to 15 years old, and 15 to 17. I really hope you aren’t from any of those countries clown.
Pedophiles and sexual pervers , homosexuals etc …where are them widely? In non Muslims countries and the West especially.
It is an old tradition in Syria for boys to fuck each other.
Is it only religious illiterates who celebrate foul-smelling Muhammad (The worm enjoyed the rotting corpse.)
Unfortunately, there are too many illiterates.
Mohammad is the last messenger of God sent for humanity .God said about him : ” And indeed, you are of a great moral of character ” Peace be upon him for ever
Anything you say can be used against you so keep the silence
A mythological fantasy god who can speak.
That’s the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard.
Must have been an illiterate hearing voices in his head.
Such people are taken under medical treatment today.
TLDR, remember when MBS said he wanted to reduce dependence on oil income… I guess his goal is to change KSA to a clown circus.
I don’t know if you guys heard about that other clown project, “The Line, Saudi Arabia”.
Ofc, if you knew about the MBS lifestyle you would also know this was coming and much more sooner or later.
KSA has been changing from begging, it use to be a “Muslim” country (headed by Wahhabis) -> oil and money -> US state -> (something happened, not gonna say it) -> “Muslim” country (headed by Wahhabis) -> Becoming US state again. They might as well change the name of their country to Clown-stan.
House of Saud won’t survive the imminent Ezekiel 38/39 war.
why were so many of the costumes of Biden and Pelosi ?
Yeaaah. Next year they celebrate Christmas with Red wine. What a shame
happy to see this really
WTF! This has gotta be Haram.
Saudis are going the way 113 years ago my country Iran experienced and the West world experienced after Renaissance. Now in 21st century all of the world are looking for a third way rather than Socialism and Liberalism and these guys are getting to know Liberalism for the first time!
The reason that South West Asia has always been a 3rd world region (in the modern era) is that we always look at the hands of the Westerners and try to copy all of what they have, without thinking about the differences between our countries and their countries.
Muslim countries wanna become developed by adapting Western dressing, music, dance, food, and secular mind, while 900 years ago, Westerners started development by adapting Islamic sciences and reading Eastern books. Celebrating Halloween and Christmas in a Muslim country is as laughable as Westerners celebrating Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha and not only it’s laughable, but also it doesn’t turn a 3rd world country like SA or UAE into a developed modernized country!
The world is getting darker by the day, Imbecility is reaching new heights.
Yes, that’s very true.
The USSA was created by satan-worshipping Freemasons. It’s origins are therefore rotten. It’s very existence represents a high offense to the Divine Creator. Halloween, Hollywood horror films are all symbols and institutions of how vile a society it really is. The new Whore of Babylon is destined however to fall and fall hard it will for it has been exporting nothing but vileness and satanic charm since its inception.
I do hope that the Haloween revelers were all jabbed with at least 6 boosters of the US pharma Clot Shot :)
100% bet the author is a disgruntled Muslim with a small cock, probably living in the West.
Islam has proven itself to be a system completely incapable of confronting Western neoliberal capitalism. As such, Islam is a social weakness, not a strength.
But yes, of course, we can see all of the hypocritical social changes driven by the Saudi state. They will probably collapse within a generation. More power to Iran, Turkey, and Russia.
The Saudis have blacked and destroyed the name of Islam. But, Islam is much more than Saudi Arabia which is like a poisonous snake swimming in vast seat unaware of its fate.
Good to see that a country is in the process of being de-Islamized.
It was about time that change came.
It will probably take some time in a country with so many religious illiterates.
With the internet and the Age of Enlightenment, it will probably take two generations before most of the religious illiterates are gone.
take easy, just a holiday for entertainment. after all you need MORE people, especially the young generation to back the idea of stopping the neoliberal’s agenda. Everything evolving over time, just the nature of humanity, accompnied by development of technnology, economic, people’s needs, and so for. Keeping tradition doen’st translate to narrow mindedness. There are certianly good perspectives about liberalism (same applied to socialism, capitalism, patriotism, conservatism, etc) but we are irritated about those liberal ideas exploited as major pretext to pursuit politician’s evil agenda to maintain their hedgemony.
Halloween is a satanic festival not simply an innocent event of frivolous behaviour it should Not be celebrated indeed it should be avoided by any Christians
Glory to the Pedophile Day. How fitting for inbred cocksucking pedophilic Islam.
Head ghoul of the oily fiefdom, Mudman Bin Salami says “It’s always Halloween in Saudi Barbaria; just ask WashPo “journalist” and Al CIAduh hack Choppedup Khashoggi.”
The rot of the civilisation is suceesfuuly implemeted by SAM.
Good Lord, this guy sounds just the faggot religious assholes who were trying to get Halloween banned when I was a kid. Let’s see, you can’t drink alcohol, dance in public, or listen to music, and now dressing up as Dracula for one night a year is also haram. Boy, Islam sure is a barrel of laughs.
They allow this but they hate Shia muslims? Next they will allow LGBT parades and “pride” month.
Halloween comes from the pagan festival Samhain. Shame on them.
All religions started as pagan religions. Monotheism in its purest form is just another form of self-deism or atheism. There is no god but (wo)man and (wo)man is god.
