  • Profaning the Sacred: a Prophetic Critique of Consumerism

    Profaning the Sacred: a Prophetic Critique of Consumerism

    b_text_6 12/12/2012 11:29 AM Page 152 CHAPTER 9 Profaning the Sacred A Prophetic Critique of Consumerism in the Heart of the Muslim World Haydar Badawi Sadig & Gussai H. Sheikheldin Introduction In 2003, Mattel’s Barbie doll was banned in Saudi Arabia. Barbie was seen as cor- rupting Islamic ideals of female modesty. In Islamic culture, showing too much skin by women (or men, for that matter) is considered abominable. Barbie’s too-short skirts certainly violate such a notion of modesty. In addition, Barbie is ideologically perceived to represent a “Western lifestyle” that does not conform to Arab-Islamic social norms. A few months after Barbie was outlawed, a new doll named Fulla (Arabian “jasmine”) began to arrive in retail stores. Fulla is marketed to Muslim children as an alternative to Barbie. What makes Fulla special is that when she is outdoors, she wears a hijab, the modest Muslim style of clothing, covering her head and most of her body. In Saudi Arabia, Fulla wears a black abaya, a full-body cover- ing cloak, and a headscarf. In other less conservative Muslim countries she may wear another color headscarf and a pastel coat, and colorful outfits without the abaya. Today Fulla is sold in China, Brazil, Indonesia, and the United States as a model of a modest female Muslim who does not display her femininity out- side the home.1 This chapter demonstrates the contradictions consumerism brings to ideals embedded in Islamic scriptures and traditions. While other examples could have b_text_6 12/12/2012 11:29 AM Page 153 Profaning the Sacred 153 been chosen, Fulla demonstrates these contradictions clearly, showing how a pop- ular product pulls Muslims into the shopping mall, the ultimate place of consump- tion.
