According to judges Ahmed Byakadah and Omaro Portuadahba, judging a Muslim beauty contest can be quite difficult. "With so many beautiful contestants it's very hard to make cuts. All of these women have such great talent and exuberant beauty it was hard to tell them they had to go home," says Byakadah. The show commenced with a breathtaking evening gown competition (pictured above) and moved swiftly into the talent competition and swimsuit competition. Interestingly each woman chose praying to be her talent, and chose to flaunt a swimsuit strikingly similar to her evening gown. "These factors made it increasingly more difficult to decide on the winner," claimed Portuadahba, "they all looked so beautiful and seductive in those swimsuits, and each could pray most solemnly to Allah...I really had a difficult time making the final cuts."
But alas, a winner was chosen and local favorite Fatima Mukhtar narrowly edged out Afaf Salami. Fatima is pictured here holding the green trophy with Afaf standing by in second place.
As you can see both candidates are strikingly gorgeous and the decision for the winner was very difficult indeed.
