Hala Shiha’s statements: Closeness to God is not through clothes, and I have not disavowed art

The artist, Hala Shiha, was a guest on the “On the Stage” program broadcast on Al-Hayat channel, presented by the journalist Mona Abdel-Wahab, and she made several different statements.

Actress Hala Shiha responded to the controversy sparked by her crisis with artist Tamer Hosni, after her participation in the movie “Not Me.”

The artist, who recently returned to the art scene after a period of retirement, said, “I do not renounce art, it is my work and my profession. I have never renounced art, and apart from acting, how can I renounce art when I am the daughter of an artist.”

She added: “Many artists who know me contacted me and said we are not sad, and they understand what is happening.”

She continued: "The people who heard did not hear from me, and those who did not know and that's why they were upset. No one can ever satisfy all parties, no matter what he does, and not all people will be satisfied with you."

She continued: “At the time of the movie with the artist Tamer Hosni, I had no problem with the song or its filming. I had forgotten the whole story and the subject of the song, but what happened at that time could happen with any woman other than me, and my being in the spotlight sparked controversy.”

Hala Shiha explains the secret of her relationship with a preacher Actress Hala Shiha said that at a stage in her life she was attracted to religious men, and she always wished to be associated with someone who would encourage her to pray, be close to God, and read the Qur’an.

Hala added: “When I chose my husband, I loved him when I was a little girl, and my love for him intensified because I felt that he was close to God, and there are people who said that the principle of everything you marry is that you choose a religious person and veil yourself when you marry him.”

She continued: “My struggle with fate was a harsh scene in my life, and there was a time when I was not satisfied, and after that, when I learned that God has wisdom in this matter, I was relieved psychologically and discovered that it was only good in my life.”

Hala Shiha: Closeness to God is not through clothing In the second part of her interview on the “On the Stage” program, artist Halal Shiha spoke about the changes that have occurred in her way of thinking in the past period, especially her vision of the relationship between dress and closeness to God.

She continued: "Being close to God does not have to be about clothing, and sometimes I feel confused and unaware of my life."

She continued: “My way of thinking changed over a period of time, that I do not have to be closer to God in uniform, and I changed based on the experiences I was going through, and I learned that I do not have to beat myself up over everything that happens to me and around me, and I learned that every need takes its time, and I will do what I feel like.”

She continued: “What I believe in, I will do, and if God gives me something else along the way, I will see it, and I don’t have to be with the internal struggle all the time.”

Hala Shiha responds to her father’s statement about her marriage in Canada Actress Hala Shiha responded to her father’s previous statement that she was kidnapped during her marriage to a preacher in Canada.

Hala Shiha said: “He is right,” indicating that this stage of her life had passed, but this stage of her life was not one of the best periods.

Hala Shiha added that she had been in a different life for 12 years and returned to her work and faced a major attack from the public, and there was a division between those who encouraged her to return to work and those who were against her return to art.

She continued: "In the middle of this conflict, she stands in the middle, in a state of confusion, and no matter how much she tries to explain to people what is inside her, people will not understand what is in her or what she is thinking. Every human being goes through difficult circumstances and needs to make a decision about a specific matter."

She pointed out that she cannot surrender to any situation that is uncomfortable for her, and that anything a person does will pay a price, pointing out that the internal conflict will not end, but she does not change the behavior of those around her, even if she is moody with herself.
