She explained her position by saying: “It never occurred to me to leave art to devote myself to religion, and I do not see any contradiction between them. God Almighty has given me the gift of voice, a talent that I use in my work. Just as we find respectable people in every profession and others who are not, whether they are engineers or others, the matter is the same in the field of art. I perform my religious duties, I fear God, and I am keen to respect everyone. As for the artist who decides to retire, he may have personal reasons or perhaps he has made some mistakes in his life.” </p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:775/461;" src="https://cdn.sbisiali.com/news/images/506011a0-980d-4f38-9be6-73b462fe28a3.jpg" alt="Pascal Machaalani: I'm not thinking about retiring...and the niqab scares me" ></figure>
