I could not agree more, we seem to have reduced Islam to a religion of harsh control and dictatorial control...my way or no way etc.

a random guy on the street didn't stop her bro, it was the mutaween...

The mutaween (Arabic: المطوعين‎)[1] are the government-authorized or government-recognized religious police (or clerical police) of Saudi Arabia. They are also religious-policing organizations in Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia and the former Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan with at least some government recognition or deference which enforce varied interpretations of Sharia law.

please i hope you understand
