Watan- In a recent social media frenzy, enthusiasts shared a rare video of Bahraini actress Zainab Al-Askari performing a dance sequence from an old TV series. In the clip, Al-Askari is seen donning a vibrant fuchsia and gold traditional dress, complemented by curly hair.
The dance, which took place in the series “Dunya Al-Qawi,” showcased Al-Askari’s undeniable charm, leaving the Kuwaiti actor Ibrahim Al-Harbi and other co-stars visibly impressed. Social media comments ranged from admiration for her beauty to speculations about her personal life. A particular claim suggested that following this episode, Al-Askari married the Deputy Ruler of Sharjah. However, Emirati journalist Saleh Al-Jasmi refuted this, emphasizing the inaccuracies of such claims on platforms like Wikipedia.

Despite the controversies, there’s no denying Zainab Al-Askari’s allure. Many reminisced about the episode, with one comment reading, “I remember watching this series daily. Even after all these years, I still recall Zainab Al-Askari’s beauty and dance. She was simply irresistible.”
For context, Zainab Al-Askari retired from acting in 2009 and married Emirati Abdullah bin Salem Al-Qasimi, with whom she has three daughters. Wikipedia entries suggest her husband is the Deputy Ruler of Sharjah, a position he’s held since 2008, among other significant roles.
