I only see this program as a blind imitation of the west; it is not related to Islam by any means. Unfortunately, people are busy watching Star Academy while the sanctity of Muslims is violated every hour; and our youth is distracted by songs and prohibited things. May God not forgive anyone who worked on this program, or promoted it, or is behind it.

Honestly speaking, Abdelaziz deserves the title, because he has both talent and ethics. What’s an artist without talent and ethics? He/she would not be an artist at the first place – with all my respect to all Arab artists. Since the day Abdelaziz entered the Academy, he did nothing wrong. It’s a sure thing that everyone noticed that, and also that many candidates left while they should actually have stayed; I will not say their names, you know them. There are people who enter the program because they want to become something, and improve their talent. And there are other people who hehehehe… they go there to have love affairs, and some look for a husband, like if all men became extinct from the world hehehe.

Star Academy is just an entertainment, it does not link dignity and homeland, and it has no meaning and no significance. It can be considered a competition on titles, singing and fame. Star Academy.

I want to comment on the results of Star Academy 6. Are you happy with the results? The best voice was Basma’s, or at least Ibrahim could have won, but not Abdelaziz. He is a good and respectable guy, but his voice is not a star’s voice. I am sorry for the comment.

Abdelaziz does not deserve at all to receive the Star Academy title, because his voice is not beautiful. It was not fair for Basma to not be given the title, because she has the most beautiful voice in the Academy.

Honestly, Abdelaziz doesn’t deserve to win the Star Academy title, because there is a voice that is better than his in the academy, which is the voice of beautiful Basma. Therefore, the one that deserves the title is Basma, or Ibrahim, but it’s especially Basma.

Greetings. Honestly, they made a mistake by giving the title to Abdelaziz, because the best voice was Basma’s. As I read in those comments, Roula defines the person who would win from the beginning, and then she gives her the title, but that’s not fair before God. However, this program does not respect the laws of Islam. Thanks.

It’s really unfair. Azouz does not deserve the title, because his voice is not beautiful at all. The one who deseeeeeeeeeeeerves it is the one with the most beautiful voice in the Academy… but you are a staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar in the eyes of Morocco, you made us proud of you, Basma.

I am Nour from Lybia. Seriously, Abdelaziz doesn’t deserve to win the title, because he has no good looks, nor voice, and not even logic. If Basma or Micho would have won it, it would have been better.

It’s true that this kind of programs makes us let go of roots, but they also allow us to open up and progress, and entertain ourselves instead of doing other things. Many people criticize this kind of programs while they actually watch them. And like our parents used to watch TV programs when they were about our age, we too should fill our time with this kind of programs, but of course everything has limits. Therefore, we should not become addicted to these shows, nor harm ourselves and lose our money for them. This is the time of our lives that we should enjoy and during which we should do whatever we want.

Peace be upon you, brothers and sisters. In my opinion, the one who deserves the title is Basma Bousil, because she made the whole world cry. She has a good voice, sings with intense feelings, and has a good presence on stage; but at the end, it’s Mrs Roula who decides. Rumor has it that the Star Academy title this year was in auction between the Saudi participant and the Kuwaiti one. Congratulations to Abdelaziz, his voice is beautiful too, even if he plays the fool sometimes.

I believe that Star Academy doesn’t contribute in developing real talents, because there are wonderful voices that deserve to be encouraged and assisted to show up and compete with other artists, but Star Academy only helps rich people….. We cannot deny that there are some participants who have beautiful voices and deserve to win, like Bassma, Abdelaziz, Bach, and Ibrahim…. But some are admitted into the show just because of their money and power….. Thank you Magharebia.

What the creator of Star Academy said about Muslims
In the name of God, the most compassionate, the most merciful. Peace be upon you and God’s mercy and blessings. Here is an interview conducted by a website with Dr. Malhom Aknov, the Israeli creator of Star Academy:
Q: How do you feel today after achieving your biggest wish, which is having Star Academy in Muslim countries?
A: It’s an indescribable feeling… It has taken us a lot of time to reach our goal.
Q: What do you mean by that?
A: I mean that it has taken us many years to spread Star Academy in Western countries, then in Arab ones. We knew that our idea would turn into the most successful plan in the course of the Israeli state.
Q: Why were you sure of the success of this idea?
A: Because we know that Muslims nowadays have drifted away from their religion, and at the same time, Muslim youth has a tendency to adhere to Islam; if this tendency grows, it will destroy our State.
Q: Why were you keen to have Star Academy as a means to reach Muslims?
A: Because we want them to drift away from their religion.
Q: What are you planning for today to attack Islam after Star Academy?
A: We are planning for the invasion of Muslim women.
Q: Why are you targeting Muslim women instead of Muslim men?
A: Because we know that if the Muslim woman deviates, a whole generation of Muslims will follow her.
Q: How do you describe invading Muslim women?
A: Now, we are keen on attacking Muslim women and corrupting them mentally, intellectually and physically more than manufacturing tanks and warplanes.
Q: Are you involved in Star Academy Lebanon?
A: Of course, we donate a substantial amount of money to them every day, and the show is constantly under our control, either the first, second or third seasons.
Q: At the end of this interview, what do you want to say to our Israeli nation? And what do you presage for them?
A: I want to ask all Israeli intellectuals to seize the sleep of the Islamic nation, because if it ever wakes up, it can restore in years what was taken from it in centuries. <><><>
This interview is copied for you because of its importance, and God knows how accurate the translation is. Can you feel the mockery towards Muslims’ dignity by publishing this interview on a website? Because they know that the feelings and pride of Islam have “died” in the hearts of Muslims, except for a few! I swear that if we all open our eyes, we should be jealous and cry blood instead of tears. Many of us will read this interview without feeling concerned or moved, and most of us watch this program and the like, but real Muslims who are concerned about their religion will definitely refuse to watch this program and similar shows, out of love for God and the prophet – peace be upon him -, because the day of judgment is coming, it’s certainly coming. Every Muslim will be accounted on the judgment day for what they have done for our religion. Did concern about our honor and Islam die in our hearts?? We must feel the humiliation that touches Muslims with this talk, and think about the intentions of the Israelis, that are as despicable as themselves. Those who read this and don’t learn anything from it should be worried about themselves and about their end. The least that can be done is boycotting this show, and any similar programs that corrupt minds… And warn our daughters particularly and women in general about them, because they are their main target!! God is sufficient for us against them, and against all those who help them. God is sufficient for us, God is sufficient for us…?? (Allah does not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves). The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: “Convey on my behalf even if it is only one verse”.

There is no doubt that Star Academy’s results were very fair. It’s a sure thing that Abdelaziz has talent and morals, and we don’t doubt that Basma has talent, as she made us cry the day she sang for kids and childhood, but it’s no secret that she has no decency, which favored Abdelaziz over her. After all, it’s just a show.

Basma is a star; they were unfair to her because it’s the prince who helped Abdelaziz. It’s true that Abdelaziz has a nice voice, but Basma deserves to win more than him. Therefore, I call on all Arabs to boycott Star Academy because it was unfair to many people, especially Moroccans, like Basma, Hanae and many more.

Fear God, O Muslims, for youth as they are the backbone of this nation. And fear God for our sisters and women, as they are the ones the prophet commended us on. O you who read and write on the Internet, fear God, fear God, fear God. We don’t want a star; we want Khalid Ibn Al-Walid. We don’t want an academy; we want the army of Omar Ibn Al-Khattab that entered Jerusalem.

I wanted Basma to win the title, because she deserves it more than anyone else; but the program relies on fraud, just like they did with Diaa Taibi from Morocco; they were unfair to her, and they falsified the results. Diaa has a very beautiful voice, and everything is nice about her. May God not forgive them. I would like to add that I love you so so much Diaa.

Of course there is fraud and discrimination. Who would win? Is it the Moroccan candidate or the Saudi candidate? Of course it’s the Saudi candidate who has the money, even if Basma’s voice is as sweet as sugar, don’t you know? It’s obvious; they are not looking for talents, they are looking for money. Open your eyes, people.

The best candidate in Star Academy 6 is Ibrahim, and he deserves to win the title. As for Basma, she is not polite, and she is very indecent. She also has no good presence on stage, and she didn’t honor us – with all due respect – because she was indecent with guys. A free Tunisian.

I don’t like any of the four. Basma fakes her personality, Michel has no manhood, Ibrahim acts like a woman; as for Abdelaziz, he is the dumbest among the four, and he doesn’t deserve to win the title, it’s Basma who deserves to win.

It’s a sure thing that Ibrahim deserves to win the title. For me, it’s definitely Ibrahim who is a star, not Abdelaziz, but that’s your luck, Barhoum. But don’t be sad, all your dreams will come true without Star Academy’s help; your dreams will surely come true thanks to your determination and talent. Good luck, Kuwaiti.
