Dust (Sooraya Qadir) is a fictional character, a mutant in the Marvel Universe. She is one of the student body in the Xavier Institute and a member of the former Hellions squad therein. Created by Grant Morrison and Ethan Van Sciver, she first appeared in New X-Men #133 (2002), although her character was not fully developed until the New X-Men: Academy X series written by Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir. She maintained her powers post-M-Day and is currently a member of the New X-Men team. She is a rare example of a positive Muslim comic book character.[1]
Origin
Dust is an adolescent Sunni Muslim girl who possesses the mutant power to turn herself into a sand-like substance. Born in Afghanistan, Sooraya is kidnapped by a slave-trading ring after she is separated from her mother. While one of her slavers tries to remove her niqāb, she instinctively lashes out with her powers and flays them all alive with her dust form before passing out. She is subsequently discovered and rescued by Wolverine and Fantomex. Wolverine takes her to the X-Corps base in India. Sooraya hides herself from the X-Men stationed there by turning into sand and spreading herself around the complex. Phoenix senses Sooraya's presence and telepathically convinces her to reveal herself to everyone present. Sooraya reforms and announces her presence by speaking a single word: Turaab. (dust).[2]
Di petik dari wikipidia
Dust (Sooraya Qadir ) adalah satu watak rekaan dalam komik barat yang terkenal iaitu X-men keluaran Marvel Universal. Watak yang digambarkan sebagai seorang watak wanita berpurdah.
Apakah tujuan ini watak direka oleh mereka ini? Walaupun watak diketengahkan sebagai watak positif saya percaya ada muslihat sebalik itu.
