Avery & Omar: ISIS, Shmisis

I kind of wonder why she's still "Ms Mills" instead of Mrs "Albakkaur."  Do Muslim women take their husband's name?

“While it was not the custom during the Prophet’s lifetime, there are credible Muslim scholars who argue that “in cases where the laws of the land or rampant social customs dictate that a woman change her surname after marriage, in order to prevent legal problems or considerable social challenges, she may do so.” But,  ‘is closer to Islamic law and to the pleasure of Allah for a Muslim woman to not change her surname after her nikah (wedding contract).‘

Their What Now? episodes have aired on the TLC app and Avery met Omar's mother and sister. 

Three slides of photos

It's Avery's birthday. There are well wishes on her Twitter account, but it's showing as down for me at the moment. I think I have the wrong link address.

She has such gorgeous hajib( please correct me if I'm using the wrong word here). And I would definitely watch them in the Middle East, just the location would be interesting.

I think it's the one thing I really like about many women who wear the hajib (?) because they normally have a face "beat for the gawdz!" as RuPaul would say.

I still think Avery is annoying and ignorant as fuck - but even I have to admit her hijab’s are beautiful. She does have beautiful skin too which helps.

And no. I have no desire to see a Season of her in the Middle East.

[nytonc]

I was watching them on the TLC app 90 Day What Now and Avery looks like she lost some weight but it’s har to tell in those hideous dresses she wears. She’s visiting Lebanon again to see Omar and meet his Mother, sister and nieces. They seem like nice ppl. Omar needs to fix mom’s teeth. Avery is still annoying as fuck. I don’t want to see more of her in the Middle East either. This was enough.

Avery has posted a comment online that I'm not able to link; I'm not sure why.

She said that her dad only has a few years left in prison and he asked her to find him a penpal/soul mate. then she said that they could be on Love after Lockup.

Their What Now episodes are available on demand.

There is another clickbait article saying Avery and Omar are separated, which I didn't see, but Avery responded with this post and a comment says that the actual article says Avery is in the US working because she is sponsoring his visa. Big whoop, but here is Avery's post:

 

[iwasish]

Listening to her talk to her father... she dropped right into his prison accent and forgot her demure Muslim wife act. I’m sure Omar wants to discuss poontang with his father in law. Anyone know what he was convicted of, he seems to have been in jail a long time. 

[Christina]

What Avery is mentioning here is a really horrible situation. Disney filmed the newest Mulan next door to this camp and is rumored to have thanked them for their cooperation with something, but I haven't seen those comments.

It is a horrible situation.  However, Avery doesn't support her case by making such a ridiculous statement that it has caused more deaths than the Holocaust!

[CrazyInAlabama]

Good luck with getting someone from Syria a visa to the U.S.    So apparently moving there didn't work out?    And if there really is an arrest, then the background check will stop any possible visa approval.

Avery has been posting photos of her and Omar in Dubai, where they have lived together since November 2020. She has also said that they are not filming for the show anymore.

Was wondering about them.

Wow living in Dubai together as husband and wife------all that time since November 2020.

They do look very nice. I’m glad they are finally together. I figured they would end up in Dubai in order to live together. 

[Christina]

Avery started a YouTube Channel and this is the first video. I haven't watched it.

 

[sainte-chapelle]

I didn’t care for Avery but she seems to love her husband and he seems to love her. There was one point where she claimed she wanted to “dance in the street” because she is American but from everything else I have seen I think that scene was scripted. I think her and mom said the cell phone/asking about beatings scene was scripted.  She seems to understand that moving means adapting to that culture, she was very respectful to his family and they do seem to like her. She also never lied, he knew she was with men in the past and just recently converted. Avery’s mom seems to like Omar. I hope they stay in Dubai, I think they may just make it.

Avery is a bit kooky but I think his calm nature is a great balance. They seem happy and in love, hope to see an update from them.

[UniqueHandle]

Of course, TLC will never let us see them again; they are too normal with little drama.

I'm very happy for them. I hope it is a smooth transition in their travels to the US.

I bet Grangela is seething through her teeth that Omar got his visa but Michael still has not.

I have to say for all of Avery's faults she wasn't as bad as alot of the past ladies who were marrying outside of their culture. I remember how she went to the that dinner with Omar's family and brought them nice gifts compared to Angela's bible quoted gun purse that Michael's mama got.  Avery dressed respectful unlike Rebecca when she was out in Tunsania with Zied and made an effort. I mean she's young and idealistic and foolish when it comes to certain things like the situation in Syria but I hope this couple well.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Omar has a profession, and if he's willing to go to two or three years of dental school in the U.S., and may even qualify for the programs that pay your way through school in return for working in underserved areas, he could go for free, and get paid too.      

Michael of Grangela has nothing except a future as her full time babysitter.   I bet Michael will wish he had never met Angela, and come to the U.S. when he does get his visa.

Omar is young and educated and is capable of getting a good job. He probably has a couple of years of studies to get his dental certifications. He brings a whole lot more than Mykull.

After watching all these dumb shows, Avery for the win in this category. Each outfit was beautiful. Wonder if she chose them herself or had help. She seemed completely comfortable both wearing the clothing and embracing his culture. Avery's attitude and Omar's path to dentistry put them both in a unique category amongst their peers on this show.

Looks like we said almost the same thing. I hadn’t refreshed my page before my post.

See, great minds do think alike. 

Omar is one of the few international fiancés/or husband/wife that I think has a great future here.

More like me looking at this before I went to bed and posting a reply before I read anything new. Didn’t check notifications first. But yeah, great minds do think alike. Omar has a lot going for him and could build a successful dental career.

At least we wont see either of them posting their privates on Only Fans.

[Scarlett45]

I understand why they are done with the show, but I would enjoy seeing them. 

[Persnickety1]

Someone in one of the 90 DF FB pages just posted a picture of Omar, Avery and a couple of other people.  It looks like Omar has officially arrived in America and they are visiting NYC.  

 

[Frozendiva]

Good for him.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Actually, that's two years of dental school, not just college, and if he wants advanced training (oral surgery, orthodontics, etc.), he has to do a residency in that.     I'm happy for him, and Avery.  I'm so glad they're in the U.S. now, and safe.

I understood her mother’s initial concern. I do think he was looking for an American bride but they did fall in love and he seems like a nice guy. I think his calm nature is a good balance for high strung Avery.  I am happy for them. No OnlyFans or other nonsense from these two.

She drapes her hijab absolutely beautifully. It must be a real art...gorgeous. I was not expecting this to work out and I'm so glad it did.

[Scarlett45]

Avery and Omar are people i would actually like to see, because their storylines would be interesting and authentic. A newly married couple, cultural adjustments, Omar’s schooling, Avery & Omar being Muslim while the rest of her extended family is not. 
 

I think Omar is cute, and I thought he seemed like he would treat Avery well. I’ve found that people who convert to a religion are often more devout than people raised in that religion(which makes sense)- I think Avery’s sincere and was committed to being a wife to Omar, and he may have wanted an USC bride but I don’t think he will hold her past against her. He also has a skill and is capable/interested in supporting a family.

But I 100% understand why they are done with this franchise and just want to live their lives. Public Instagram is one thing (they can control it and it’s just photos) but a camera following you and the asinine storylines can be too much and probably not healthy for the marriage.

Scarlet, Scarlet, Scarlet...but you know we cannot see them because they're, well, normal. The Lying Channel only wants crazy, offensive fuckwits like Grangela, Mike and Whatshername, etc.

Yes.  I saw a documentary on Youtube called becoming Muslim in Texas (or something to that effect) of people taking on the Muslim faith in ultra Christian Texas.  Very interesting but true to your statement. The one girl practically was barking orders to the rest of the women in the mosque and she just took on the faith a few years prior.

I don't know why I have that quote bar above but I was just coming to agree that often converts to a religion are often very devout.

I think part of the reason the cultural differences are not such obstacles for Avery and Omar is that if I remember correctly, she was already intrigued and in the process of converting to Islam before she met him. She wasn't doing it for him although I am sure that tipped the scales. It's several years ago since then so if I remember incorrectly- my apologies.And do please correct me.

I think you are right. If I remember correctly, she had converted and went on a Muslim dating site where she met him.

One thing I know about converts in Islam is that most other Muslims won't hold their pre-Islamic life against them. It's essentially wiped clean when they convert.

You guys are right. Avery had already converted when met Omar on an international Muslim dating site. I was a bit skeptical because I wondered why she hadn’t tried to meet any Muslim men in her metro area before going international but it’s worked out for them!
