Last week, I went with my best friend, who is also my cousin, who is also my roommate, and who is not going to be happy when he finds out I mentioned him here ;-), to Al-Mamlaka shopping mall. We got there around 1600, it took us about two hours to finish our shopping spree. It was almost Maghrib (sunset) prayer time, and we were done with our shopping, but we had to wait for a friend of ours to pick us up.
We sat at the food court. A few minutes later, most of the employees at the mall came and sat there. They were chatting, smoking, and killing time, waiting for the prayer time to end so they can go back to their jobs.
Later, we heard some screams, and saw some guys running. "Oh, shit! It's the religious police. Run away!" my friend said. We jumped from our seats, looking for the nearest exit. We took the escalator, and had to leave the mall using the gates of the parking lot.
It was so embarrassing to see tens of twenty-something-year-old healthy men run away at the sight of a bearded man. Of course, the man was companioned by a policeman to protect him, but I think they were doing nothing to be afraid. Are we ever going to get rid of these harassments? When these idiotic religious policemen will stop attacking people's freedoms, and denying their right to choose? # »
