Rihanna Says Sorry For Sacred Islamic Text At Lingerie Fashion Show | NOW

On Tuesday, Rihanna apologized for using Islamic verses during the lingerie fashion show of her brand Savage X Fenty. The singer faced a lot of criticism last week and let in her Instagramstory “to be grateful to have been made aware of her inattention by the Muslim community”.

During the event, it was streamed on Amazon Live Friday, lingerie models danced on Doom, a song by British music producer Coucou Chloe. The song includes an excerpt from a Hadith – Islamic tradition about the Prophet Muhammad – about the day of judgment.

“I want to thank the Muslim community for pointing out a huge mistake that was inadvertently offensive on our Savage X Fenty show,” writes the 32-year-old singer. “More importantly, I would like to apologize for this honest but careless mistake.”

She continues, “We understand that we have hurt many of our Muslim brothers and sisters, and I am incredibly sad about this!” She calls the choice of the song “irresponsible” and promises to “make sure that nothing like this ever happens again”.

Also producer Coucou Chloe has apologized for the song: “I want to apologize for the insult caused by the vocal samples in my song. Doom have been used, ”she said on Monday Twitter. “The song was made with samples of Baile Funk tracks that I found online. At the time, I was unaware that these examples used text from an Islamic Hadith.”

The Hadith is seen as ‘the backbone of Islamic civilization’ and within that religion the authority of the Hadith comes second to that of the Quran.
