You are very much welcome 7abibi.

Eh? Not from what I am aware of. That is Arab clothing. Not much Pakistani about it or anything else for that matter. Does he look like a Pakistani to you, the settings or the name of the photographer?

All pictures posted in this thread is of Arab clothing and nothing else.

Many other Muslim countries have been inspired by Arab clothing though so there can be a connection there.

Well, I disagree here. Most Arabs/Semitic people have a very distinct look/features that set us apart from everyone else in the world and even region. But sure some Pakistanis could probably pass and vice versa some Arabs. In the Western eyes we Muslims are probably all identical or all Arabs, LOL.

Anyway let us not derail the thread.

Some traditional Arab Omani clothing:

I have no idea what a Shalwar is. Those are Omani Arab girls wearing one of the many hundred traditional Arab dresses in Oman. There are similar ones in parts of KSA and Yemen. You might reread this thread again to see how diverse our traditional clothing is depending on the region, country etc. The Arab world is HUGE and very diverse. Alone on the Arabian Peninsula we have very diverse and different looking traditional clothing depending on the country and region.

Anyway the thread is not about this.

No more derailing of this thread, please.

@Aeronaut

Will you please delete the off-topic posts and posts of no value that do not display traditional Arab clothing? I did not use my time to show the diversity of the traditional clothing on mainly the Arabian Peninsula and parts of the Levant for the thread to be destroyed by trolling. Much appreciated. Once infected by trolling you know very well what can happen and usually happens on this forum.

RaptorRX707:

Learn the difference between traditional clothing, regional etc. such as all those I posted from KSA, Yemen and other Arab countries and religious one like the niqab which is a religious symbol more than anything else.

 

[ranjeet]

Such a beautiful thread showcasing the side of Arabs which hardly get mentions. Thanks to OP and I hope people will keep this thread running.

Thanks, man. I tried to learn differences. Can Saudi get rid of black Ogal and some golden dress that make them dumb and unislamic niqab cultures?

I would recommend to use hijab styles.

 

[al-Hasani]

Stop trolling. Once again those are not traditional Arab attires but women wearing a niqab, religious clothing (Islamic) that is worn across the Arab world and the NON-ARAB Muslim world. The second picture is obscure and might be everything.

First picture are not Saudis but some Muslim women in England. Fail.

Picture number 4 is not from KSA but Iran or somewhere else. Such dress as the one on the picture is worn by Shias. Already been disputed by another member when it was used in another thread.

Half of the posts are from regions of KSA and the traditional attiure from there. Remaining Yemen. Small part from Oman and a few from Najd, UAE and 2 from Qatar. The remaining ones are the attire of Jordanian Bedouins (royal guards) and 2-4 of Jordanian, Hejazi and Palestinian dances or general Arab attire worn by most Arabs during certain occasions or elders.

In total you need to learn to make a distinction between traditional attire as all the ones I posted and religious ones such as the Islamic niqab.

But I have encountered you before and you seem to have some inferiority complex with us Arabs/Semitic people for whatever reason and KSA. Or hatred.

I expect the moderators to delete all those off-topic posts, posts of no value, trolling posts and posts that do not show traditional Arab clothing so my thread and work does not get destroyed.

Unless this just shows that such behavior is accepted and appreciated on this forum as long as it is against Arabs.

i have read about salwar kameezs on wiki and nowhere does it mention it belongs to any arab country.it says salwar kameez originated in iran and then brought to india and pak.i am pretty sure the women in salwars might be following some pakistani fashion or might have been inspired by bollywood.
