Correction, if she wants to disobey the commandments of Allah, then she has the free will to do so.
Well the motion of the debate is arguable in itself. It is general but Sh Yasir nailed it when he said she can do whatever she wants but if she calls herself muslim and allows complete freedom then theres no point of being a muslim.
The syrian 'imam' was like 'baba ali' says 'JOKE'. The saudi lady,on sh Yasirs side, might have a had a point but i think what she shouldve put in a better way and shouldnt have been demeaning of the intellect of young muslim women and adopted that 'look ur stupid and young and we know better' approach.I think that backfired on her part.
The opposition,the one who said she got divorced and all was talkin abt interpretation and completely neglecting the ijmah,consensus of the majority of the ulamah. If she goin to try and rationalize everything by goin to some bogus isolated imam then she might even say drinking alchohol is permissible ! and basically remove every rule the religion has.
