Carole Samaha sparks anger for wearing cross inside mosque during husband's funeral
ALBAWABA - Lebanese singer Carole Samaha is under fire following her latest appearance at the funeral of her husband, Egyptian businessman and producer Walid Mostafa, as she was spotted wearing a black t-shirt and a big cross around her neck. What sparked the controversy was that Carole Samaha entered the mosque while wearing the cross, taking into consideration that her husband is Muslim while she is a Christian Lebanese. Comments poured in on social media, with some objecting to the matter, including: "She is supposed to abide by the teachings of Islam because her husband is Muslim," while another social media user said, "Sorry, is there no respect for the mosque? Why are you going to a mosque with a cross!" On the other hand, some people defended Samaha and said: "First of all, may God have mercy on him, forgive him, and grant him a place in heaven. Second, leave people to their Creator. He is a Muslim, may God have mercy on him, and she is a Christian; and she has the right to wear a cross. Why are you interfering with her?' 'Comments that bore the soul. I wish you would respect the feelings of others, without the philosophies of frivolous people. May God have mercy on the deceased and grant patience to his wife and family." Carole Samaha lamented her late husband, the Egyptian businessman Walid Mustafa, who died Saturday, May 3, following a protracted battle with sickness. "Today I lost my husband and beloved Dr. Walid Mustafa," the singer wrote.
