Miss World Muslimah 2013

Miss Nigeria crowned winner in Muslim pageant




It may not be your typical beauty pageant, but there was still plenty of glitz and glam as beauty queen hopefuls from around the world competed in the annual Miss World Muslimah 2013 competition, an event hosted exclusively for Muslim women. Miss Nigeria Obabiyi Aishah Ajibola took home the crown at this year's contest, which took place in Jakarta, Indonesia on Sept. 18, 2013. The annual pageant, hosted in response to the Miss World contest in Bali, seeks to empower Muslim women.
